The 12 Relationship Mistakes She Continued to Make 😒

Ever questioned #WhyMe and why do you keep falling for the same bad habits? I’ve fallen for many guys in life and these are the mistakes I realized I continued to make.


1. The Jailbaits & Jailmates

Lol I know it sounds weird but for a girl who prefers someone her age, she kept falling for guys out of her age range, particularly those who were younger. Don’t worry, we were all of legal age aha. And to most of you, this wouldn't even count as a “gap”. I always wanted someone my exact age or possibly 1 year older. And although thats what I mostly stuck to, there were some slipups. At least 5 great guys i met were 2-3 years younger than me. Smh. And omg, when that stopped, the older gaps started. I was falling for guys who were 5-10 years older than me. None of these guys were really on the same page as me in terms of wanting the same things at the same time in life.

2. The Justice “Out of My” League

I’d consider myself like a 6.5 and I usually go for 7s and 8s cause I feel they’re more in league. Yet, I have the weakness that everyone has when theyre starstruck 😍 I couldn’t stop falling for 9s. Yea they always acted flirty with me but we never made it to relationship status. There were at least 4. I mean, i tried. But the attention I got out of them was better than none. I literally almost pulled Superman Rob and Batman River 😭🙌

3. The Going the Distance

No matter how badly I tried to keep it in the zone, i kept pulling up at autozone. I continued to fall for guys who lived hours away, regardless if they were in my state or out of state. Then it sucked cause we were both always carless. Like wtf man!! When you have no car, its hard to go far

4. The Dying Family Ties

I’m big on family although mine have been acting an ass lately. I was hoping to find a guy who was a loner but still spent lots of time with family. Yet i always got the opposite. There was my ex whos mom didn't claim him and left him at diff fam members house. Then there was the one whos drill sergeant dad scared him into not wanting to have a family of his own one day. And then there's my current whos fam only notices him when they feel a “new gf” threatens to replace them.

5. The Fussers & Cussers

Apparently I have a thing for arguing. Its like if you dont argue, the relationship gets a bit boring. And if its not the arguments, then its the guys who can't catch a break with the cusswords. Like omg use your substitute words Mr!!

6. The Chocolate Lovers

I didn't think it could get much worse than the amount of black guys who told me my eyes werent light enough and that my booty wasn't big enough. Ha, I remember when I used to get all cheeky when a guy of another race was interested in us black chicks. But I prefer the ones who hardly reminded you of how different your skintone was from theirs.

Instead I always got stuck with the “Omg I never f*cked a black girl before. Are yalls pssys as tight and do you have pink npples too? Im sure you have a big booty because come on, you're black! Omg I bet you're a great dancer! Should we name our future babies Shaniqua? Is this your hair real? You should try color contacts. Wow I thought you’d live in the hood, but your house is really nice. I’d date a black chick but not marry one because my family doesn't want me to.”

7. The Impatiently Not Waiting

I kept wanting guys who’d wait til i was ready to have sex. But I kept ending up guys who didn't even wanna wait up to 90 days. Freakin ridic ugh!! And they were so dang sexy too, bt I’m not tryna give up the cooch to just anybody

8. The Fever for the Nonbelievers

I’m a Christian, but used to say I’d date someone nonChristian, however I preferred they still believe in God. Even when i was ok with them not believing in God, it was still a struggle. I got tired of them questioning my beliefs.

9. The No School No Rules

My ex got his GED but that was after failing the same grade 3 times in a row. My current boyfriend may not even graduate college on time and it pisses me off a bit cause I take school seriously. I won't even go on about the other guys who didn't make it to college. There was one who made it through several professions but he wouldn't stop going to school lol. He just kept going for degree after degree. He had like a bachelors for several majors. And if it wasn't about degrees and diplomas, i kept falling for guys who felt skipping school was cool. Ugh

10. The Big Boys Dont Cry

I don’t want a guy who cries during movies like the Notebook and Titanic, but it would be nice to have someone who isn't afraid to show their emotions. I have to pry it out of these men. They think its weak to cry when in a moment of need. But I dont see it that way. I need someone who will break down with me and hold me at the same


11. The Broken Gaydar

Gosh I don’t even want to think about this one. No offense to some guys who i helped “get off” in the past with my dirty words... but um, I’m willing to say whatever it takes to make em bust a nut. Anyways, I’m not into this kinky eat a guys booty, stick a finger in his butt stuff, dominatrix crap. Its just not me. And then when this one guy told ne he made out with a guy as a dare to make sure he wasn't gay. Like what the actual fck...

12. Finders but Not Keepers

So my friends say we don’t have the same type. Well, why is it the guys I like either choose my friends over me, cheat on me with my friends/enemies, or that friend tries to get at my man. Like wtf. Whats mine is mine! Not whats yours is mine

  • I'd say some of your struggle comes from the learning, exploring and just go out and be wild period that many men (and women) go through into their mid to late 20s. I'm not saying all people are like that just many. It takes awhile for some people to settle down to be ready for a real dating/partnership situation but you should continue to hold on to what you consider important for yourself.

    • I've never gone out and explored and dated around. Ill hang out in groups and talk to people like “whats ur fave food etc” but i never just got wild. Not my style

    • never was mine either. I'm too sedate I think. I went to clubs and dance but didn't drink, etc. and went to parties but never got sucked into anything.

  • If you continue to find the same kind of guys who are not right for you, then you need to think about changing the way you scout for future contestants.

    • This is an old take. At this point im only still dealing with 1/6/7 but yea

  • Interesting. Maybe now that you’ve identified the mistakes you’ll stop making them.

    • Nahh

  • The question is are you willing to not repeat those MISTAKES again?

    • Thats still to be determined...

  • Well written. Although I am guilty of some of these. Lol. Great insight on society

    • Thank you

  • This mytake could be titled:
    "The Struggles Of High Maintenance Girls".
    Seriously, you are one superficial bitch.
    "I'ma 6.5 or a 7" yeah, that means you are a 5.5.
    "I go for 9s" Yeah, that means you have unrealistic expectations.

    In short, you want:
    An extremely hot, family centric, religious man who will wait for you to make the calls, and lives near you, and is mildly racist, and is highly educated, and is a traditional man's man who doesn't show emotions, and none of your friends are attracted to him.

    Well, good luck being alone forever, I'll leace you to it.

    • I already have a man you pathetic pos. I am a 6.5 and he's a 7. We love eachother. He is religious. And he's mixed, im black, you're prob mildly racist. We’re both religious and im only high maintenance when it comes to material not men. you're the loner here. So sappy. Get a life. He and i both have our college degrees. What do you have? Assumptions. So pathetic man. And he shows emotions on occasion and no my friends finally aren't attracted to my guy for once and that makes me feel great because i dont have to worry about my guy cheating with my friends. I do wear half the pants and i fckin love it. My guy lives a 14 hour drive away so you sound even more dumb now. he's hardly family centric and i am his family at this point. You sound like the biggest douche ever. Good luck being alone... oh wait nvm you have assumptions to keep you company. @evilangel114 @jdavid25 @queenofcups @legatelanius @topaz171 u all know i dont have the best boyfriend but he's certainly not the worst. This guy looks dumb

    • sure does

  • I hope this means that your attraction and choices in partners has continued to improve, especially while you're still young. A lot of people can't seem to outgrow certain types.

    • Yea this is an old take. Im def improving although still struggling with 1/6/7

    • And you REALLY need to get off of 1 cuz there's nothing sexy about guys like that. When I do go after a black woman I do prefer the dark ones, yeah. And I don't like fake contacts and light eyes on brown women, just natural. I do like a black woman to be darker than me although a girl I'm crushing on right now is lightskinned.

    • Whats ur skintone? And nahh age matters lol

  • Informative my take

    • Yep try not to fall for the same type

  • Nice list. Sorry you keep getting bad deals here. 😞 Hopefully it gets better. 😊

    I guess I can't really be continuing to make any mistake. Since I just have the one ex... But probably my mistake would be being too trusting. Not paying attention when things started to seem off. Or believing any excuse she told me to explain why something was wrong. Just not seeing the signs I guess. I mean there must have been signs.. I just didn't see any.

    • I only have one ex but i have several “almost bfs”

    • Oh okay.

  • Oof.. That's tough Desi... But hey, at least you find a guy close enough.. Good take!.. 8)..

    • Yep lol

    • Sorry I wanted to say somethin more, but I forgot about it, so I just typed the generic answer.. LOL..

  • Great take :)
    I always like guys out of my league too, that's annoying ><

    • Haha yep

  • That's a lengthy list indeed. The one I can say I've done myself is nr. 8 with my first girlfriend. I naively thought it could work and I hadn't truly commited to God yet. It's not a mistake I will repeat once again.

    • Yea im still struggling with 1/3/6/7. Im trying to stay away but thats the main types that keep approaching haha

    • @DizzyDesii wish we could talk again

    • 3 is understandable. You'd have to have immense blessing to find suitable candidates in your vicinity. LDR's can be tempting.

    • Oooh cool

  • İnteresting

  • Wow soo profound

    • Thanks

  • I'm single so I don't really have an opinion on this.

  • Didn't know you were black and couldn't care less about it. You're still as attractive as ever. P. S. I honestly thought you were a South Asian chick but I fell in with black too. I do have problems socializing with East Asians and European Whites

    • Lmao yea im black. My names Desi. Not my ethnicity lol

    • I meant your skin tone looks lighter than mine. And I am South Asian

    • Black people come in different shades. In the pic im in the sunlight but my skintone is basically like Ciara the singer
