6 Types of Men Who Will Break Your Heart
By Cynthia Heimel

From Advanced Sex Tips For Girls: This Time It's Personal

Every woman knows that not every guy is going to be "the one." But where is it written that every other guy has to be a complete disaster? Sure, there are hundreds (and maybe thousands) of self-help books out there full of nifty dating advice, but that doesn't seem to stop even the sanest of us from making the same mistakes -- and choosing the same kinds of men -- over and over. Maybe it's time for a humorous approach. That's why Cynthia Heimel has put together this foolproof checklist, designed to help you spot a heartbreaker at 30 paces. Here you'll find out why some men are only to be dated at your own risk:



Dealbreakers in the Making


Suitors with More than One Job


Self-Proclaimed "Renaissance Men"


Convicts and Married Men


Guys with Mental Problems or Addictions

Dealbreakers in the Making
page 2 of "6 Types of Men Who Will Break Your Heart"

These are men with just a whisper of something askew that needs to be carefully evaluated. Like, oh, maybe he worships Satan. Do not, at your peril, neglect the following warning signs:



He calls you a "classy lady," a "special lady" or a "special classy lady."
He visibly needs dental work.
He doesn't have a dog because it is "too much responsibility."
He still has his ex's makeup stashed somewhere in his bathroom.
He swears he only watches PBS.
He can't eat unless his napkin is folded like a swan.
He uses the adjective "delicious" to describe people, not cake.
He paints stripes on his face prior to attending sporting events.
He wears fur.
He wears tight pants. Or leather pants. Or tight leather pants.
He sports visible hairplugs or even wears an actual hairpiece, which is only okay if he's an actor.
He suggests candlelit dinners, long walks on the beach, and describes himself as "youthful," or exhibits other behavior that suggests he's Mr. Personal Ad.
He's bald, yet he has a ponytail.
He's a stockbroker, yet he has a ponytail.
He is clean-shaven, except for a horrid little tuft of hair right above his chin.
He really loves his mother.
He really hates his mother.
He wears Italian loafers without socks.
He remembers and tells you his SAT scores.
His checks have a pastel background of kitties playing with yarn.
You may think, "Oh, so what, his pants are tight," or even "Why should I care if he's missing a front tooth?" Yet these little traits are simply the tip of a big personality iceberg: A man who is afraid of the responsibility of a dog will most likely leave you out in the rain. A stockbroker with a ponytail has a yen to be involved in organized crime. A man who says he only watches PBS usually suffers from herpes. Always remember: If she is anywhere, God is in the details.

On the other hand, there are geeks out there, and they, as geeks, have no social skills at all and would have fared way better had they been brought up by wolves. It is totally possible for a geek -- anyone who has ever, in any sense, written "code" -- to exhibit all the traits listed above and still be perfectly fine, since he simply read the wrong "how to be a human" manual and can be easily led away from the Sansabelt slacks with a judicious cattle prod.

Suitors with More than One Job

There is something very swoony about the "/" guys. You know, the carpenter/musician, the housepainter/sculptor, the dentist/photographer. This guy exudes a certain brooding poetry, a vulnerability, and a disarming zest for sex anywhere and anytime, including fields and stairwells. And he'll write a song about you, because even if a "/"

Ha...I'm so glad you ladies liked this 😛

It's actually supposed to be real advice (but told in a humorous way). I thought parts of it were sad also. But, I do think a lot of women would benefit from reading this. A lot of us are making unwise choices (ahemMEahem) 😛

Dammit! I love French phrases, but I have no idea what that means. Another lookup for me! lol...

YOU DO KNOW THIS IS BULLCRACK RIGHT? OVERANALIZE THE MEN THAT BROKE YOUR HEART. LETS SEE, HE WAS AN marker SO HE'S ONE AND THE OTHERGUY THAT LEFT ME WAS A NICE GUY SO HE'S ONE TOO, AND UMMMM THE OTHER GUY ENDED UP LIKING EVERYTHING I LIKED IN TASTE IN CLOTHING (HE WAS FUN) BUT HE ENDED UP BEING GAY, SO I GUESS HE'S ONE TOO. TO SUM IT UP NO MAN WILL EVER BE GOOD ENOUGH TO YOU IF YOU OVERANALIZE AND WRITE THEM IN STONE.
STOOOPID AGAIN! YAWN! THIS IS FUN. IF YOU ALL KNOW THIS IS SARCASM!
Sometimes...I want to go backwards in time. Just re-do all kinds of things. And just enjoy and re-live others. I enjoyed my life very much at the age of four. I do remember being four, as weird as that is. I remember things that I did, said, and plac

just crawl into a hole and die? Really...has life ever gotten to you that much? Love? Love is doing that to me. I'm not actually suicidal, but it's that point you get to where you're not even angry..it's true sadness, just the lowest, lowest feeling.

So it's come to this: I'm completely, entirely on my own now. I was before in most ways, since my breakup with Leo Bastard, but...there was this person. But that person and I are not going to work out, it seems.

Where can I meet normal, quiet g

Alright well maybe that heading is a bit much. There are thousands of reasons why I'm thinking I will never find the right person for me right now, but what I really want to know is what you all think about the following....

Is it true that in a

I want very few things from people. Things that I will gladly give to them, if they give these things to me. Yet so few seem capable of fulfilling such simple desires.

1) BE LOYAL TO ME. Friend or lover, just be loyal. Don't carouse with oth

Serious question:

What do you here do for fun?

And the correct answer is not posting all day on Duncan Expose. Unless, of course, it is.
