There’s one established fact about dating – no one is perfect. No matter how perfect a person appears, there is a flaw in him somewhere. We all know that, and we have come to accept that reality. However, because no one is perfect isn’t an excuse to lower your standards beyond the acceptable, and settle for less. What you’re required to do as you seek a partner to settle with is look for a man/woman with the least flaws. When you find them, you’ll know, and you mustn’t let go.
A lot of women have settled for the wrong relationships in the excuse that ‘no one is perfect’. There’s the acceptable, and there is the unacceptable.
Here are some habits no woman should be willing to accept from her man in a relationship.
INCESSANT EXCUSES
There’s a reason for every action, but not every reason is acceptable. When a man continues to make excuses for every time he isn’t there as agreed, all he’s doing is show you how immature he is. A man who is ready to be responsible takes charge of his relationship, and will look for a way to make up for past errors by not repeating them.
UNCONTROLLABLE ANGER
Anger can be difficult to control, but that’s what differentiates a man from a boy. A man who cannot express his displeasure without screaming and shouting is wrong for you.
FAILURE TO KEEP PROMISES
There’s a difference between failing to meet a deadline for an uncontrollable reason, and simply ignoring promises. If your man doesn’t but you a car as promised because of a sudden financial challenge, that’s understandable, however, when he says he’ll take you out on a date, and fails to on more than one occasion, it’s not a good thing. It means he’s not serious, and probably doesn’t take you seriously. And the worst part is people like that rarely change.
LYING
I think we all get tempted to tell that little lie, but it shouldn’t be to the people we most care about, and certainly not all the time. A man who can’t trust his partner enough to tell her the truth is simply shady, and not worth being with.
HE NEVER PUTS YOU FIRST
A man who never for once puts you ahead of work, friends and family simply doesn’t love you. A man who cares about his woman would try to please her now and then no matter how tight his schedule. If he doesn’t do it now, chances are he probably never will.
POSSESSIVENESS
A man who is possessive is a control freak. He sees you as his property, and wants to dictate how your life should be run. Possessiveness is good if it’s put in check, but a lot of guys rarely can, so the best thing is to run as far away as you can.
HE LIKES TO WIN ARGUMENTS
The idea of arguing in a relationship isn’t to win, it is to learn and be better. A man who can’t agree he’s wrong or see reason in your argument is childish and immature. How can one gain satisfaction from arguing with their partner? It makes no sense.
FAILURE TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY
A person who cannot take responsibility for their actions simply do not want to admit their mistakes. That means they think they’re right, and they’re not willing to learn. It’s wrong, and you don’t want to settle with that kind of man.
