While some men may seem perfect on the first few dates, it doesn't take long for their real character or personality to show. On that note, it's important to look out for the warning signs.
CHECK OUT: 7 types of men most likely to cheat and their unique qualities
We have searched dating and relationship advice journals to bring you eight types of men or character traits in men that you should steer clear of if they are not compatible with what you are looking for. It will help you avoid unnecessary drama and heartache.
1. The set-in-his-ways guy
Being with someone who refuses to do anything new will lead to a relationship that is both boring and one-sided. Don't assume that he will eventually come around to trying your hobbies or indulging in your interests. This man only becomes more rigid over time.
2. The pick-up-after-me guy
These are the ones who expect you to clear their spaces, wash their dishes, pick up their clothes, and shoes, and look out for their hygiene. This behaviour only gets worse and normal as you both enter a mother-child dynamic.

3. The always-looking-for-a-deal guy
There's nothing wrong with trying to get the best deal out there. But these men make shopping or purchases a stressful time and process. They constantly look for deals and comment on prices early on in the dating process. These are warning signs of a stingy person and financial issues throughout the duration of the relationship.
4. I-need-to-watch-sports-all-the-time guy
Most guys like watching sports, but this shouldn't be at the expense of the responsibilities of a relationship. It is not an interest for this type of guy, it is a childish obsession with sports. He also tends to bleed into the "I-don't-know-what-I'm-looking-for" guy who is a confused person. One day, he wants a relationship, the next he wants kids, and a few months later he's not so sure about either.
5. What's-for-dinner guy
These men expect a home-cooked meal every single night. Nothing outside of this routine occurs to them, not eating out, or contributing in the kitchen. Don't end up being a maid.
6. The I-had-sex-and-now-l-don't-have-to-try-anymore guy
This type tends to back away from pursuing or impressing you and start getting lazier after having sex for the first time. He was probably only after one thing, to begin with.
7. The I-will-let-you-pay-for-some-of-my-bills guy
If he asks for help to pay bills early on in a relationship, it is a warning sign that you should avoid a relationship with him. It starts out simple but it is a foundation for the future of expecting this kind of dynamic.
8. The over-controlling guy
The one who makes sure to check on 'his woman' incessantly until she is in front of him. He also makes it a point to inquire about who she is hanging out with. It is not cute protectiveness or possessiveness but constant nagging.
