Dating can be difficult, but what’s even more difficult than dating is finding the right guy with the wrong career. We know, it sounds super picky to judge a guy by his career, but honestly, it can make a world of a difference in a relationship —let us explain.
Some men with certain careers tend to let their daily task influence their lives, and not for the better. And there also happens to be a commonality in careers that seem to attract a certain type of man — the toxic ones. So we did our research, chatted with the girls, and even experienced some of these men ourselves. Take it from us when we say these are the top five careers to avoid when dating men.
*But first, before we dive in, let’s make it clear that there is always an exception. So if the shoe doesn’t fit..keep walking in it.
Personal Trainers
If you’ve ever dated a personal trainer then you already know why this is probably the most toxic job of them all. PTs are notorious for being hot — think height, muscles, and charisma, they literally have it all…everything but money, that is. We don’t believe in generalizations but believe us when we say 97.9% of men who are personal trainers are, ahem, financially unstable [broke]. It’s not a coincidence it’s simply a fact. And, to match their financial lack they also are notorious for cheating. Just think about all the women they’re training, they’re literally getting “paid” [and we say that loosely] to work with people’s bodies. So do what you want with that information.
Uniformed Officials
Okay, we’re giving firemen a pass on this one because they bring the heat [pun intended]. But the rest of you policemen, detectives, and military officials, this one is for you. Men in uniform tend to take their work home which makes for an unsavory household. Also, a nice handful of them are prone to having misogynistic mindsets that lead to many forms of abuse. Which is very odd considering their career is to protect and serve. And for bonus points, men with these careers work long hours and can be on call at any time of the day or night…not an ideal situation.
Nightlife Workers
If you’re okay with your man being in the club all hours of the night surrounded by drunk and hot girls [kudos if you get the Kanye reference] then, by all means, knock yourself out. However, if you’d rather be cuddled up in a serious Netflix binge then listen to us when we say — don’t date the nightlife guy. This guy parties 20 hours a day and sleeps the remaining four just to charge up to do it all again. And yes, this is a fast life so cheating should be expected. There’s nothing but drugs, alcohol, and endless opportunities to get caught up in what comes along with dating someone in this industry.
Unknown
Listen, if you’re dating a man who does illegal activities for a living then call your mom and have her put money on your books because you’re going to jail. Whether you are involved or not, simply being in the around with this man is enough to have you placed in. It’s not worth it, seriously. There’s nothing cute about dating a bad boy, because this man will ruin your life in more ways than one.
Pilot
What they say about pilots and flight attendants is typically true. They live a fast life and travel from state to state, hotel to hotel, bar to bar, and woman to woman. Truth hurts, huh? Not to mention they’re hardly home, meaning you’ll basically be taking care of home all alone, which can easily become a resentful feeling. But, don’t worry, they’ll come home eventually, but they’ll be so tired from jet lag [or hungover from bar hopping] that all they’ll want to do is sleep.
