Being a free molecule in the dating scene exposes one to virtually every kind of girl. You are as likely to meet a serial killer as you are likely to meet an angel lowered by God himself to fulfill all your heart’s desires. You might meet the sweet Mary mother Christ just as you are likely to meet Mary Magdalene the lady with countless husbands.
Wooing is like fishing, you never know what you caught until you get it off the water level. But that unpredictability is the thrill of searching, flirting with the unknown, and living on the edge. You also get to sample all that life has to offer as far as lasses are concerned.
Kissing many frogs before finally finding a prince or princess is mandatory. Let’s face it, this soul mate business is not for everybody. There are those who will live their lives without really feeling the ecstasy of passionate love, the desire it builds and how fatal it can be if it remains untamed.
There are ladies a brother should stay away from if he ever wants to increase his chances of landing a soul mate.
Unlike the fisherman who has to let his fish land and unhook the bait before trying his luck again, a guy should be able to keep away from certain ladies like plague. Am not of course saying that these characteristics will always spell trouble but then again consider yourself warned.
#10.The lady in a clique
This girl is always in the company of her girls. They do everything together. She may be beautiful but she probably has low self esteem and she has to walk with her not so beautiful friends just to feel the stare of hypnotized men upon her. Being with her means you have to be besties with her friends, hang out at their favorite spots, and embrace their joints among others. You can as well kiss privacy goodbye.
She is sometimes likely to forget you are a guy who might probably need some time alone with her away from the scrutiny of her single friends.
There’s also the probability that she has a cute friend and a guy can always be tempted, to not good results…..I must add.
These ladies are usually in uniform, either spotting same nail polish or tops of similar colours. Her decisions in most cases are made for her by the group and she’s always trying to compare you with her friend’s boyfriend’s fake qualities. Her friends may seem happy to see you but in the real sense they just remembered how Johnny refused to rise to the occasion.
#9.The lady in distress
This is the kind of girl who thinks you are everything from a plumber, an electrician, a therapist, a masseur, to a tailor et cetera. You may think that you are just being the good jack of all trades but probably she sees you as the jerk of all traits. She expects you to drop everything you doing with a snap of the queen’s fingers.
The problem with being too available is that she is likely to take you for granted. She’ll probably call you the first day every semester to help her carry her luggage from the gate to some hostel or to pick her from a night out and take her to her bed.
Don’t expect to score my friend. Before you know it you’ll be the relationship expert she turns to ask what you think about guy A, or what to do to get Sam to pay attention…….BAM! Congratulations bro, you are friend zoned!
#8.The campus radio
This is the girl who has an opinion on everything and anything and she’s always more than willing to blurt to the whole world what she thinks. She doesn’t know when to listen or when just to keep her mouth shut. She’s the kind of a girl who is likely to shout penalty while watching a football match yet the fowl is at the center of the pitch.
Needless to say since she’s shameless you’ll probably be the one bearing the brunt of a heavy head. This is the kind of girl who will tell you about how many people want her. You don’t know whether she actually expects you to go to those guys and tell them to stop wanting. It’s almost certain she’s telling the other guys about how you want her.
This is the kind of girl who misses posting her letters on the notice board in high school. You probably know everything about her friends including the ones you haven’t met yet and the name of their boyfriends and such intimate details. Who knows the whole campus would soon know you moan while in the business.
#7.The Wannabe
She’s called Beautilious Sweetbabe or such fancy names on Facebook yet her real name is Philomena Kerubo. Her profile picture is that of Beyonce though the only thing they share is the gender. Her hometown is listed as East Legon though she came to visit the aunt who stays there just for a fortnight way back in 2007 and left back for Tembiku.
She spots a fake American accent though the closest she’s ever been to America is through the study of Geography. This accent though wears out especially when she’s mad or really excited. She’s always posting on Facebook about her meals and bragging how lunch is delicious with wrong spellings .You wonder what phone she uses that doesn’t do her the justice of the red line and correction. “Eating missed meet………really yammy….(at BigDaddy’s)”
If she is sitting by you now, please stop reading this article and run for your life.
#6.The party animal
Don’t get me wrong, there’s nothing wrong with a girl who knows how to have a good time. The problem is that one who goes out on Wednesday and finds herself in a stranger’s bed on the sweltering heat of the Monday afternoon. She’s the expert on ‘bendover’ and nearly everybody you know at one moment has ‘suguad’ her behind thoroughly. She uses everything and getting high is a basic need.
This is not the girl to have as a girlfriend though there would be no harm in seeking her out on a Friday evening especially if you loaded. You should know drinks don’t flow from a tap.
#5.The girl who loves
Love is a beautiful thing, just like honey, just like sugar, like salt. Too little and it’s tasteless, too much and again it becomes inedible. This is the girl who sends five texts in quick succession and before you get to reply she calls you. She doesn’t believe somebody can actually be busy building the nation.
She will always be calling after one hour so that you are traced and implored upon to answer your texts and receive your calls. This is the kind of girl who had it not been for her meager means, she would probably buy an ad space in the local dailies to either declare her undying love for you or just implore the good citizens of the world to help her locate you.
She needs constant reassurance that she is indeed the only girl in your life. She becomes an emotional wreck if you hug another lady for a second longer. Avoid this one too, you won’t want to be the reason somebody is in a mental institution now would you?
#4.One with more ambition than you do
She thinks she’s smarter than you. This is the one who keeps asking you what your short term and long term goals are, where you see yourself in the next ten years etc. She’s the kind of girl who sees you as a project and tries really hard to ‘uplift ‘you to her standards. She sees your hobbies as a distraction and your friends as pulling you back. She probably takes Pharmacy or Medical Sciences and thinks that the Bachelors of Arts, Visual and Performing Arts that you doing should not be offered at the university level in the first place.
Typically she is the man in the relationship. She sets what time you meet and will probably write you a note after a good time and thank you for your time as if it was a business transaction.
#3.The lady without a boyfriend
If she wasn’t born yesterday, she looks alright and there are no men buzzing around her then there’s is definitely something wrong with her. There is a reason why people keep away from her, after all since when are men known to run away from gold? Who knows she may be a night runner or even a serial killer!
This is the girl who has a fixed idea of how guys should dress, speak, and behave and most of her ideas are collected from Mexican soaps. She probably thinks that the only romantic gesture from a guy is being rained on and playing the guitar while singing to her how amazing she is and assuring her that for her you can jump from top of Silver Towers.
There’s of course the probability that some guy did her wrong and all men on the surface of the other are forever judged guilty. Whatever you do if no one seems interested in your girl, she should be avoided too.
#2.The ever broke girl
This is the girl who conveniently forgets her wallet every time you go shopping. She’s always having ‘big’ money or is always searching for her purse. The search of course stops immediately you decide to be the gentleman and pay her fare.
She tamely promises to pay you promptly but she’s banking on the fact that being the proud poor dude that you are you won’t probably take her on that offer and pursue her for one cedi.
She sometimes asks for lunch and when you take her out for a meal, she’s not comfortable even with chips and chicken, she wants a three course meal yet the last time she ate that Chicken was Christmas. She’s always texting you how life is difficult this days. She sometimes don’t reply your messages in the pretense that she’s out of airtime.
Being the good guy, you will probably not send her just the 5 cedis to subscribe to an internet bundle. Boss, you don’t have a girl, kick that parasite out.
#1.NOTE
There are of course very many other women to be avoided but if I go on perhaps there won’t be any other women to pursue. I’m not of course insisting that you take my words for it. I wish you well.
