Listen up single ladies, and some men, the red flags are simple. It feels wrong but for some reason it works for you after your brain finds a way to make it work. And we have all been there. It seems as if the guy likes you but it is the opposite in reality. The below signs usually come between the "walk away now" and the "run like hell" phase of avoiding another bad decision. Here are the ten signs he doesn't want you.
The call doesn't come. You gave your number out to a guy who requested it. Keyword is "requested" your number. Let him contact you. Question is, do you want to end up with someone who doesn't have the guts to ask you for your phone number? Seriously. Because he will grow accustomed to only doing when asked. If he wants you, he'll ask for that number. And if he doesn't ask - he's not into you.
He avoids your call(s). Numbers exchange and that is truly as far as it gets. Or you could call him up thinking that he just wasn't home. So you call back later. Then later. Then later. This is one sure way to kill any potential future dates with that person. If you never hear from him deal with it. You're worth more than that.
He doesn't appear in locations he usually goes. Locations he knows you will be. So, he usually plays tennis or goes to a coffee shop on certain days - when you are there. But all of the sudden he doesn't venture to these locations after you believe he knows you are interested in him. Where did he go? Anywhere you're not. Take the hint and move on. Sure, he could be busy doing something else.
He avoids eye contact. So, there's this guy at the local pool who is attracted to you and you've been checking him out. Like magic - his glances disappeared. Now he checks out other people. He avoids eye contact when you walk by or lay out in front of him in a pink bikini. Moving on!
He avoids talking with you. You try to be nice, ask about his day, crack light humor, but nothing works. He sits there all serious, stern. It's not you - it is him. He just ridiculous and immature. You have to know this. Any guy who avoids talking with you is a coward, a chicken, no backbone. Ladies, and some men, let the jellyfish go back into his abyss.
He doesn't say hello. Like a fly on the wall that just exists. Don't, under any circumstance, say hello without being greeted first (on the second round). Meaning, say hello once and see if there is a response. The next time you see him don't say hello and wait for him to greet you first. Which brings us to the next sign.
He is not asking you out. Ladies, we know it is alright for a woman to ask a man out but let's not forget one thing. You already know you are into him. Question is, is he into you - by his own measures? Be patient but realize when it is time to get over this circus attraction. Don't wait around too long. Life is too short for that.
He is not polite to you. This is a "no brainer" ladies. You say hi. He just smirks. He gives you dirty looks and turns his head when you spot him in view. He says "whatever" to you as you pass by. Ladies, he is just not worth the punching bag investment.
His eyes are on everything but you. Even when you lay out in front of him with a pink bikini and a smile. You may attract all kinds of visual attention except from him. That is a true sign.
He is taken (married, dating someone, etc). You never see him with a companion. He's looking better each day. It makes no sense why he is ignoring the open opportunity of snagging at least your phone number. No ring, no signs. Remember, he could be accounted for already by a companion who allows him to venture on his own. Therefore, hands off ladies. It is time to move on!
