Five types of girls to avoid dating
Most guys are not like girls. We do not dream about our “Prince Charming,” we just want a nice girl.
There is a huge misconception about the teenage boy, that he is too picky and wants his girl to be perfect.
This is far from true. While no two guys have the same taste, any girl is dateable under the right circumstances.
She does not have to be pretty, or incredibly smart and nice.
All a guy really needs from a girl is for her to try to make him happy.
The following is a group of girls who are not at all dateable for the average guy, for any number of reasons.
1. Miss Bun and Sweatpants.
The lucky girl who has been nicknamed Miss Bun and Sweatpants is easily recognizable.
Do not misunderstand, there is nothing wrong with taking a lazy day.
Coming up with something interesting to wear every day is difficult for girls. Sometimes a girl is just plain tired in the morning.
But this girl is far from having a tired morning.
You will find Miss Bun and Sweatpants almost every day wearing the uniform: hair up in a bun or ponytail, unwashed, a sweatshirt or baggy t-shirt, and either sweatpants or stretch pants.
Miss Bun and Sweatpants can be beautiful. Her attire will just hide said beauty.
Stay away from Miss Bun and Sweatpants. She does not care about her appearance enough to try and look nice.
2. Miss Selfie
Disclaimer- This is not about girls who are on the app Snapchat often.
Miss Selfie has earned her title by her school of thought.
“Oh, I look nice,” she will think. “I’d better take a selfie.”
OK, so that’s not actually what she says, but I get my point across.
This girl is the polar opposite of the aforementioned Miss Bun and Sweatpants.
Miss Selfie cares far too much about her own personal appearance. She will never have the “lazy day,” talked about earlier.
She tries too hard to look nice and is often too focused on material possessions and appearance. She will want you to look nice as well.
Worry not, though, you will only need to be tall, handsome, muscular, have nice hair, have pretty eyes, many friends, and a fair sum of money you can waste on her.
3. Miss Guy Friends
“I only hang out with guys. It’s less drama!” Everyone knows this girl.
The original reasoning is 100 percent valid.
Guys do tend to be less drama-oriented in high school.
High school boys instead usually focus on another vice: girls!
Yes, Miss Guy Friends, a large number of your guy friends find you attractive. A large number of them want to be with you. Those same guys will flirt with you quite often.
To her credit, Miss Guy Friends usually does not notice that all of these guys are flirting with her all of the time. She has a tendency to become immune to it.
Any guy who decides to date Miss Guy Friends is going to suffer severe jealousy pains.
If he belongs to her group of guy friends, he will suffer ridicule and dislike from the other members of the group.
Miss Guy Friends, herself, will need some time to get used to one of her friends now being her boyfriend, as well, and expect him to act like he used to.
But he will act very little like he used to act.
Even worse, if he comes from outside the group of friends, he is going to have a hard time.
He will suffer through a whole group of young men who find his girlfriend attractive, and he will not be welcomed in this group.
Sometimes Miss Guy Friends will hang out with the group and purposefully not invite him, so she can hang out with just her friends (who all want to flirt with her.)
4. Miss Goes to the Bathroom in Herds
This girl often comes in groups of two to four girls who “need” to use the restroom.
There is some validity to people needing to urinate at the same time, but seriously?
I am not even sure what girls do in the bathroom together. The only thing I can think of is encouragement, which you should not need in the bathroom.
Every time one of these girls needs to use the restroom, at least one of her friends will go with her.
This girl is to be avoided.
She has very little independence most of the time. She must always be with her little support group.
She will need so much time and devotion from you that she is simply not worthwhile, and that is if you can ever get her alone. Getting Miss Goes to the Bathroom in Herds away from her friends can prove to be quite the task.
But some guys are up to the challenge.
You should not be.
5. Miss Controlling
Miss Controlling is going to be far away from the giggling, gaggle girl.
This girl will go out with you and immediately take control of your entire life.
Do not let any girl take over your life, especially in high school.
In some instances this girl may seem ideal. For example, a guy who struggles with decision making has an easy time with Miss Controlling; she will make every decision for him.
By every decision, realize I do mean every decision.
“No, you don’t want to eat those chips, they’ll make you fat and give you awful breath. Here eat this Nutri-Grain bar.”
I, for one, support Nutri-Grain bars, but I still need my Doritos.
That was a more mild example of the control range of this girl. You will find yourself behaving more like she is your mother than your girlfriend.
“Can I go to the bathroom? Can I have this?”
You should ask and make decisions together in a healthy relationship, not go along with the ones she makes.
Maintain your manhood, men!

You’re correct that this is an opinion piece but not only does Ryan have the right to state his opinion, so do the readers of The Eclipse. There will be people who agree with Ryan and those who are offended and as a journalist, or someone giving an opinion in general, Ryan has to face criticism from people who do not agree with what he has to say. Some people who read this interpreted it as offensive and stereotypical and believe this article contradicted itself and those people have the right to tell everyone this.

All Ryan did here was voice his opinion. He did nothing wrong. He should not be receiving hate for disliking certain traits in women and while it could have been worded better, I do not see why he is seen as a bad person because he stated his opinion. This is under the opinion section after all, is that not what he is supposed to say? If he doesn’t like a girl wearing sweatpants all of the time or taking selfies every two minutes, who cares? Leave him alone about it and focus on something important.

Society in general puts pressure on girls to look a certain way. It is not right to put girls into categories and assume all girls you put in that group are the same. There are many reasons different girls do different things. It is also not fair to attack the way a girl looks. The opposing article on the types of guys not to date shows valid points that deal with personality instead of bringing up what society thinks a guy should look like, unlike this article.

Yeah. What they said. You go chicas.

As a female who not only dresses nicely, but also has guy friends and occasionally goes to the bathroom with her friends I’m very offended. I don’t feel that a girl who does or doesn’t care to dress nicely should be labeled as “undateable.” Nor do I think having guy friends is a crutch. As a high schooler it’s very common to have friends of both genders.. My boyfriend and I share the same friend group and I don’t think that makes either of us not want to date the other. Also, going to the bathroom with your girl friends has nothing to do with being dependent. We go for many reasons.. Maybe we have something to tell each other or we need to borrow feminine products or we don’t want to be left alone or it would be awkward for them to be by themselves with whoever else was there. I hope you learn that being dateable should not come down to looks. Everyone is dateable and it takes the right person to see it. However, I do agree that no girlfriend should control you but that’s also partly the boys fault if he allows that to happen throughout the relationship.

As a girl who does occasionally wear sweatpants and my hair in a bun, has guy friends, takes selfies, and does go to the bathroom with a friend, I am deeply offended. Categorizing every female who does any of those five things, is incorrect. A girl should be able to dress how they feel without being told it’s not right. It is not as big of a deal when a male would make that action. When a guy has lots of girl friends it’s fine but yet a girl cannot have a friend who is a guy, without being called bad words and thought badly of. So what if I have guy friends? So what if you have girl friends? Who cares. Also, if a selfie makes a girl feel more confident, then more power to her. You may have your opinion and to some it may be considered a good one, but as a female who is deeply offended, you categorizing us women because of these things, will always negatively effect women. Bring women up, don’t tear us down. Look behind those unimportant things if you’re looking for a girl, because there are far more important factors to a girl then how she looks. Try her personality or maybe even her heart.
