Do not marry a man who has these 7 habits

1/8

Be very careful, notice these things before marrying him

All of us have some or the other issues and no one can be perfect. Finding Mr. Right is a journey that rarely has anyone coming out with flying colours. However, what’s imperative is that you make sure that he does not have these 7 habits as that is equivalent to welcoming catastrophe in the long run.

2/8

Promise breaker

If he makes a lot of promises but never sticks to them, it’s time you rethink about this man. Once or twice can be forgiven but an everyday scenario like this is not what you want. Such men are probably making a fool out of you!

3/8

Controlling

Eat this, wear that, walk like this, where are you?... you get the picture. These kinds of questions seem nice in the beginning as you interpret them as caring, however, in the long run you will find them suffocating. If he tries to control you, are you sure you want to stick to such a man?

4/8

Secondary treatment

Giving, receiving and sharing is the base of all relationships and it has to be equal. If the man does not believe in two-way traffic then he should be out of your life as every person deserves better, a partner who is there for it all. You should be on the top of the priority list after parents.

5/8

Overplaying “sorry”

He makes the same mistake over and over again and says sorry. Sorry is not a comma or a full stop but an emotion that must be felt and acted on so as not to repeat it all over again. If he keeps doing it, you ought to imagine a future with such a soul and rethink your relationship.

6/8

Your opinions are “moo” points to him

Little ego is fine as we all have it but if your opinion means nothing to him and they are treated as “moo point” as Joey in “Friends” says it, then rethink. Your opinion should always matter to him. He does not have to settle for them all, but if never agrees to them and tries to show you down amid “discussions” and fights for his own, then please respect your own dignity.

7/8

Liar

The world does have pathological liars so a relationship with them is equivalent to inviting unnecessary stress. White lies are okay but constant lying about the smallest thing is a big red flag.

8/8

Clingy

We all want to hold a warm hand that cares every once in a while but if requires you to be with him 24*7, acts like a baby when you are with you friends, tries to fit himself in your family time, me time, mother and daughter time, etc, then please talk to him. Have a conversation with him that he is invading your space and being clingy. If he works on it and gets better then it's fine otherwise please stop as clingy is not normal.
