Maybe it’s slightly stereotyping, but maybe I am going off
of experience. After 3 years of being single with a slight stint of a
short-term relationship, I’ve encountered an array of boys and enough of them
to start forming categories. Categories that also help me figure out how to
deal with them and treat them overall.
So I present to you a few categories I have come up with and
experienced. Now, when I group some of them together, there are a few
exceptions that aren’t exactly like my description. I know this. So please don’t
get offended. These are just some things to think about!
I present to you the following categories of boys:
The Frat Guys – These guys are about brotherhood, but more
often than not, when it comes to girls, the bond gets a little gray and the
lines get overstepped. It doesn’t matter too much if one has a crush on you.
Others will still pursue you anyway. The parties, date nights, and formals are
a lot of fun and should be experienced at least once if you are a college
student. They know how to have fun and always make sure to.
Baseball Boys – I’ve heard about the stigma of them being
jerks and I haven’t learned otherwise. I’ve pitched the idea with 3 different
ones.
One – Led me to believe he was single when he actually was
in a serious relationship with a girl long distance and tried to lie about it
even when I had proof.
Two – Didn’t treat my best friends very well and I just
wasn’t having it.
Three – Dropped me just as fast as he had reeled me into
liking him.
To me, that looks like 3 big strikes. So I won’t be holding
my breath for one to change my mind. Too many curve balls for me.
The Weekenders – Typically, you will only hear from these
guys on the weekend. School, sports, jobs, and other things come first during the
week, but weekends are for having fun and chasing girls. You see them at the
bars with friends and flirting with girls. They may text you before
the night gets started wondering what you will be doing and where you will be
going for the night. Others will text you as the night is winding down
especially after they see you out. Their level of attractiveness is high while
any level of commitment is terribly low. They are the spontaneous fun time
guys. Don't get your hopes up for anything more.
The Good Guys – Now these are not the average good guys.
These are the really really good guys. Most of the time, they are from a small
conservative town and have a great religious background. They can almost be too
good and even make the good girls feel a little bad. Having grown up in a big
city surrounded by both liberals and conservatives, different races, sexual
orientations, and religions, it makes it a little hard to mesh well with them.
They get tempted, but can feel bad making out with a girl they aren’t in a
relationship with. But man, they will make great husbands with the right lady
just for them.
The Charmers – Oh, the lines. You don’t have normal
conversations with this person. It’s straight up flirting the whole time. They are smart and somewhat smooth. They challenge you and question you all the
while you do the same thing back to them. They are fun to debate and compete
with, but good luck having any relationship with them. Either they aren't really that invested in your or it's just exhausting.
The Lingerers – They like to lurk. On social media. They
might delete you on Snapchat or unfollow you on Twitter, but they will most
likely come back. Their egos are big and they portray a lot of confidence, but
personally can’t approach me properly. They will watch my Snapchat stories and
like my latest Instagram photo. When I see them out, they will look at me from
across the bar, but not even acknowledge me as I pass by. But then they will
promptly send me a Snapchat after I
have left or text me after I have
left town to ask me on a date.
Wondering where the bad boys are? They are so extensive,
they get their own future post. :)
Sparkle&Shine.
