When you start a romantic relationship, you don’t completely know the other person. Then, as time passes, we discover new facets of our partner’s personality. If you recognize any of these profiles, it is best to end the relationship quickly. Here’s why.
Butterflies in your stomach, glitter in your eyes… When you fall in love, you only perceive the qualities of your partner. But once this honeymoon period is over, the flaws appear and you realize the true personality you have in front of you.
According to Randy Skilton, relationship coach who speaks in the media Your Tango“If you recognize any of these profiles, it’s best to end the relationship, no matter how nice they are.”
The one who will say “I love you” way too quickly
A person who says these words too quickly in the relationship – after only a few days sometimes! – comes across as a superficial man, who forms bonds too quickly with others. Usually, these men say “I love you” very quickly, and quickly too, you become the center of their universe. “They want to officially commit after a few weeks and shower you with attention and gifts. You will probably feel flattered, but in reality, you should take it as a warning sign: this person will become detached from you as quickly as they became attached. warns the coach. A technique called love-bombing, the premise of a toxic relationship or ghosting. Indeed, in a healthy relationship, the attachment process takes time, and a well-adjusted person will not ask you to move in with them after two weeks of dating.
The one who is jealous and a control freak
When starting a new relationship, you may not notice how jealous and a control freak your partner is. “But over time, you will have the opportunity to discover his possessive, overprotective, controlling and even authoritarian side. explains the specialist. Usually, these men also try to cut you off from your friends and family, in order to increase their control over you. It can also monitor your outings and the people you hang out with. All of these signals should push you to end the relationship quickly.
The one who constantly needs help
This type of partner does not show their intentions at the start. He will invite you in and insist on paying. But little by little, his problems, often financial, will set in and you will have to provide for his needs. “Don’t be fooled by someone who gives you lavish gifts early in the relationship. Eventually you’ll pay for it.” quips the relationship expert. “For this kind of person will abandon you with heartache and debt.”
The one who constantly brags
This type of man is self-centered and often selfish. “They are completely obsessed with themselves and their image” adds Randy Skilton. “He will talk about himself all the time and leave you little time to talk.”. Worse, these men usually don’t hesitate to criticize and embarrass you in public. “These guys are actors, and you have to be vigilant to understand them” warns the coach.
According to Randy Skilton, “if you have low self-esteem, you may fall in love with these types of men and fall for their tactics“To avoid this, you need to change the way you perceive yourself.”If you don’t feel good enough and believe you don’t deserve better, you will only attract men who reflect those same qualities. Therefore, what needs to change is how you see and value yourself. Only then will you learn how to attract quality men and build a great relationship” rcommands the coach.
Either way, when you meet someone new, don’t rush into the relationship just because everything is going well at first. “Even if everything turns out fantastic, wait and see to make sure this person is genuine” advises Randy Skilton. “Keep your heart and your pockets locked until they have proven themselves: when your man is sincere, he will also want to know you better before making a big commitment.”.
