7 Of The Worst Male Online Habits

Technology is probably the best thing that’s ever happened to dating. It’s convenient, it’s efficient, and it gives you the chance to do a basic background check on the guy that you’re seeing. The downside to that is you also have access to the most annoying parts of their personality.

There are times you can meet a guy who doesn’t post stuff often, and other times, you meet someone else who posts too often – with too much information. Unfortunately, that’s one of the consequences to having a lot of access to a person’s online profile. They think they can do whatever they want with little to no consequences.

Aside from that, there’s messaging. Guys think that it’s okay to say or show anything to girls online. What’s more is that even the guys in real life don’t have an online filter either! It’s very difficult to keep them in line once they’re holding their phones, but sometimes it’s what we love about them.

# Idiotic pictures

Anyone is allowed to post whatever picture they want, but some photos are just plain irritating. It’s hard to have a conversation with someone you can’t take seriously, so you better make sure that you at least look respectable. The list of idiotic pictures is a really long one, but the basic photos that really irk us girls are these:

– Shirtless pics

– Shirtless mirror pics

– Pictures taken indoors, but wearing shades

– Blurry pics

– Cropping girls out of their photos

If you really want to impress us with your profile photo, use these:

– A clear, mid-range photo of yourself looking happy

– A photo with a baby, preferable your sister’s or your friend’s. Women love babies.

– A photo with your pet.

# The shocking timeline photo

I know it’s tempting to post that really gruesome canker sore photo, for the benefit of your guy friends, but you have 300 other mature Facebook friends who have to see it over and over again, because all your bros are going to like it over and over as well.

# Liking a porn page

I honestly don’t know if there’s a privacy setting that will prevent this, but apparently a lot of guys don’t know either. We know you liked “Busty Babes on Facebook,” because I can see it on my News Feed and your Timeline! Have some discretion and just go on YouPorn in incognito mode or something.

# Using the Facebook thumbs up sign

After an enjoyable conversation, nothing pisses us girls off more than a guy sending us that big “thumbs up” sign. It’s like a universal message saying, “We good? Now back to my game.”

# Facetiming with his bros

This is especially important when you just started talking to or seeing somebody. If you want to Facetime with a girl, get a room! We don’t want you flaunting to your boys the fact that a girl is actually talking to you. Let us meet your friends in person first, or know more about them, before you broadcast our existence on a video call.

# Clicking click-bait porn spam

Please, stop falling for those stupid links on Facebook where you have to like or share a pervy picture to view a link. It shows up on everyone’s News Feed, which means that everybody knows that you are not only a pervert – you’re also a gullible pervert.

# Comment section chat room

If you want to say something, use your inbox. Nobody needs to know about the logistics of your night out or if you’re planning on doing the laundry today. That stuff keeps popping up on screen and it makes it harder to see other people’s juicier Facebook posts.
