Signs Your Girlfriend is Too Young for You

All relationships have their up and downs. However, if you are experiencing more downs than ups and your girlfriend’s behavior is driving you nuts, you may be left wondering if your girlfriend is actually a little too immature for you. So, is it you or is your girlfriend too young for you?

Extremely sensitive

Criticism can be hard to take for anyone. However, a mature person takes it in stride. They realize that constructive criticism is actually helpful. People who are immature view any form of criticism as an attack against them. If your girlfriend is instantly offended if you offer her any type of advice, she is probably too young for you. Your girlfriend is still too emotionally immature to accept constructive criticism or advice.

Irresponsible

Mature people are responsible. They take responsibility for themselves and their behavior. A mature person is accountable for the things that happen to them. They also don’t try to blame others when things go wrong in their lives. If your girlfriend never wants to be held accountable for anything, she is too young for you. Ask yourself if you can trust her to pay the bills on time or to make any type of serious decisions.

Needs instant gratification

People who are emotionally immature need immediate gratification. If your girlfriend is one of those people who must have what she wants the instant that she wants it, she is too immature. She is only capable of thinking of herself.  Your girlfriend is too young for you if you have grown past this stage in your life.

Selfishness

Is your girlfriend self-centered? Does she talk about herself constantly? Selfishness is another sign of immaturity.

Neediness

Do you find yourself annoyed by your girlfriend’s constant calling, texting, or showing up at your house unannounced? If your girlfriend is doing these things, then she is needy. Needy people are demanding. They insist on having your undivided attention. If your girlfriend’s needy behavior is annoying you, then she may not be mature enough to be involved in a serious relationship yet.

Not willing to compromise

No two people will always agree. This is the reason that compromise is so important in relationships. Compromise requires listening, and an immature person is unable to listen to anyone’s need other than their own. Your girlfriend’s inability to compromise is another sign that she is too young for you.

Have you been wondering about your girlfriend’s maturity level? Regardless of your girlfriend’s age, she is too young for you if she exhibits any of the warning signs listed above.

Why Won't He Make the First Move?!

 

He likes you. You know he does. He flirts with you and shows all the signs of wanting to be with you. However, he has not asked you out- yet. He hasn’t even asked for your phone number. Even if he has, he still hasn’t called. So, what is the problem? Why won’t he make the first move?

He is shy

He is too shy to initiate contact with you. Even though he would like to be with you, he is just too scared to make a move. If this is the case, you will have to be the one to initiate all contact until he is more comfortable with you.

You are out of his league

You can’t believe it. He likes you. You like him. You smile. He smiles. You “accidentally” brush up against him. He turns all red in the face. But, he won’t say a word. You know he is not shy. You are cute. You know you are. In fact, other guys are falling all over you. So, what is the problem? Sadly, if you are too popular, too cute, or too exciting, this guy may think that you are out of his league. Because you can have any other guy you want, he may feel that he doesn’t stand a chance. So, to keep his heart from being broken, he has decided to just watch from the sidelines.

Worried about his friends

Okay, so you are not considered to be all that popular. You are not a male magnate. However, you are a nice person, and some guys would even call you cute. Despite your shortcomings, he likes you. He goes out of his way to help you. And, when the two of you are alone, he jokes with you a lot. But, whenever other people are around, he only smiles. What is the deal? The deal is that he is afraid of what his friends will say. It doesn’t matter if he is seventeen or thirty, men do care what their friends think. Although he likes you, he still may not ask you out or talk to you for fear of what his friends may think. What should you do if you feel that this is the case? Move on. If he really likes you, he will stand up to his friends and fight for you.

He already has a girlfriend

The two of you have exchanged phone numbers. You have called him several times, and he sounds glad to hear from you. The two of you send sexy text messages like crazy. The problem is he hasn’t called you. You are doing all of the calling. He answers your texts, but you have to text him first. You don’t want to hear this. None of us do, and we all hope that it is not true. However, there is a strong possibility that your crush is already involved with someone else. This is not to say that he doesn’t like you. It simply means that he is already in a committed relationship, and he is not willing to let it go at the moment. So, how do you know? Simple. Ask him if he is dating someone. If he is really serious about his girlfriend, he will let you know that his is already involved.

Men have many different reasons for hesitating to initiate contact. However, the reasons listed above are some of the main ones.

Things We Do for Love

Today one of my friends admitted that she married her husband in a desperate attempt to get her ex-boyfriend to rescue her at the altar. Sad to say, this didn't happen. She got married just to spite her ex-boyfriend. Needless to say, she regrets it. I even know women who have faked being pregnant just to keep a man.
