10 ways girls cause a break-up

Reasons men break up with women
Men get a bad rep, but ladies if we’re truthful we know that we’re not exactly angels ourselves. Temper tantrums, unrealistic demands and a strong urge to smother have meant that for some of us, our relationships have ended prematurely and we’ve been ditched by the guy we liked. Here are 10 ways girls cause a break-up; can you spot anything familiar on our list?


Jealous
If you’ve got a green-eyed monster living within you, beware; jealousy is one of the biggest ways girls cause a break-up. Checking your guy’s phone, Facebook or internet history tells him you don’t trust him and that you’re jealous. Immediately alarm bells will be ringing in his head and he might begin to assume that your jealousy will turn you into a controlling and restrictive girlfriend.




Clingy
Acting like an emotional two-year old who can’t bear to be left alone will definitely cause a break-up. Men like to feel independent and enjoy a sense of freedom, so if they can’t even go to the game with their mates alone, they’re not going to want to stick around for long. Space is good, so if you find that you can’t stand not being by your man’s side for less than an hour try to take up a new hobby or work a little harder on your other relationships with friends and family.

Wedding bells and the patter of tiny feet
If you’ve been dating for four weeks and have already said that you want kids by the time you’re 28 (which is in a year), talked about where you’d like to get married and have hinted that you’d like to move into his apartment, he’s going to be panicking. If you’re overly keen at the start of a relationship you’ll scare off the person you are dating. Even though you were compatible and you might have ended up living together forever, he’ll break up with you because he’ll feel claustrophobic, trapped and think you’re a tad desperate.

You’re a state
Who cares if you’re drunk again; it’s a Friday night after all? Although drinking in moderation is a normal part of most adult’s lives, being too drunk too often will worry and possibly embarrass your man. If every weekend you’re a state who has to be taken home because you lost a shoe and nearly got kicked out of a bar, then he’ll get fed up and your wild ways will have caused him to break up with you.

Flirting
Most women flirt and studies have shown that those who do often get better deals, but flirting too much with too many good looking men is one way girls cause a break-up. Men like to know that you are theirs and want to feel secure in the relationship. By flirting with other attractive men you’ll be sending your boyfriend signals that you might not stick with him for the long-haul. Chances are, he’ll cut the ties with you first before you get to ditch him for someone who looks like a part-time swim shorts model

Change his ways
It’s the age old issue: women trying to change their men for the “better”. We’re not sure about the science behind this phenomenon, but women do seem to have an uncontrollable desire to improve and mould their men. Yet, for obvious reasons, this is not a quality men find endearing or attractive and nagging your man to change his ways is another way girls cause a break-up.

Work, work, work
Although no one would ever want to take your career off you, if you get into the office when the sun rises and don’t leave until 10 at night, when do you ever get a chance to see your boyfriend? The weekend might be enough time for some men, but others will see you working all hours as a sign that he’s less important than your job (which of course he might be) and it might be a reason why he breaks up with you.

Moods
Every single person in the world gets into moods. It’s part of human nature. Yet girls who have a temperamental temper and let themselves act on any instinct or emotion will cause a break-up. No one wants to be in a difficult relationship with someone who is aggressive or sulky every other day. Acting in this way will make those around you scared and uncertain about how to act in case they accidentally upset you.

In one ear, out the other
Men often find that women do not listen; or at least, they do not listen to them. If your guy gives you advice and you ignore it entirely, but you act upon what your friends tell you, it will make him feel belittled and shows him that you don’t trust his judgement. Although you should listen to your friends, also make sure you take note of his advice as well to show that you value his opinion as much as other people’s. If you don’t agree with his advice, tell him why you don’t agree rather than rudely ignoring what he has to say.

Never let him forget
Okay, so he forgot your birthday, but you decided to stay with him so it’s time to forgive and forget. Girls cause break-ups because they hold wrongs their boyfriends have done against them and every time they do something wrong remind them of their previous history. If you can’t get over the way they treated you then it’s time to end it. If you can forgive them and don’t want to cause a break-up try to let the wounds heal and don’t always throw his wrong-doings back in his face.
