There are certain things no woman deserves to put up with. Even if you think a man is right for you in almost every way, you need to leave him if he crosses the line, because one deal breaker should signal the end of the relationship. If you're not sure what's considered unacceptable, here are a few things that should automatically be deal breakers:
1 He Cheats
If a man sleeps with someone else or kisses someone else, it's grounds for a breakup. You should be the only woman in his life.
Frequently asked questions
2 He Insults You
Don't let a man talk down to you. If he acts like you're inferior, you should show him the door.
3 He Physically Abuses You
The second a man slaps you, delete him from your life. Even if he promises to never do it again, you can't believe him. Your best option is to leave.
4 He Lies
If he lies to you about small things, he'll lie to you about big things. You need an honest man if you want your relationship to work.
5 He Won’t Tell You How He Feels
Some men aren't good at expressing their feelings. However, if you're dating him, he has to be honest with you. If he never lets you know how he feels, how will your relationship ever last?
6 He Won’t Go down on You
Sex is an important part of a relationship. If he'll sleep with you, but isn't willing to do what he needs to do to get you off, he's inconsiderate.
7 He Won’t do Any Chores
You're not in charge of all of the cooking and cleaning, just because you're a woman. He should be willing to do some work, as well.
8 He Refuses to Work
If he's unemployed, and he won't even bother to look for a job, it's a red flag. How will you two afford a place to live if he won't pitch in?
9 He Body Shames You
You should never put up with a man who insults your appearance. He should love your body, mind, and soul.
10 He Gets Overly Jealous
It's normal for him to get jealous when you talk to your ex. But if he gets mad at you whenever you look at another man, something's wrong.
11 He Never Listens
Why would you want to date someone who doesn't care about anything you have to say? A good boyfriend would always listen to your little stories.
12 He Tries to Control You
He can't tell you what clothes to wear or what food to eat. If he tries to control every aspect of your life, he's dangerous. You need to find someone new.
13 He Tells Mean Jokes
If he tells sexist jokes or makes fun of you in front of his friends, you shouldn't put up with his behavior. You deserve respect.
14 He Keeps Secrets
Even if he keeps a small secret from you, like that he loves to listen to Taylor Swift, it's a bad sign. He should be comfortable enough with you to tell you the truth about everything.
15 He Threatens You
It doesn't matter if he's actually hit you before. If he threatens to do so, you should get out of there ASAP.
16 He Does Hard Drugs
Unless he's working hard to recover, you don't want to date a drug addict. If he has no intention of changing, he might bring you down with him.
17 He Doesn't Want the Same Future as You
If you want to have children, but he doesn't, then you either need to compromise with him or leave him. Otherwise, one of you will end up bitter.
You should never stick with a man who is clearly wrong for you. Have you ever broken up with a man for any of these reasons?
