Men With Zero Mental & Emotional Maturity Usually Say 13 Phrases In Casual Conversation

When it comes to dating, there are very few things that can be as awkward and painful to deal with as a man with low maturity who’s showing interest in a woman who clearly isn’t interested in them. That said, some casual phrases men say are like nails on a chalkboard to women. Here are some of the worst things guys say to women that instantly reveal they have literally no maturity.

Men with zero maturity usually say these phrases in casual conversation:

1. 'You know what your problem is?'

First of all, don't assume you know what our 'problem' is. 

Runner-up phrase: 'You dated too many jerks, and now you can’t tell the difference when you meet a really nice guy.' 

Yep. This had to be on there. Because guys get salty, and because they think that they are automatically better than any other guy she may choose, they have to lecture her on how her taste in men is wrong. Sorry, guys, the heart wants what it wants. Also, if you have to say you’re a nice guy, you’re probably not.

2. 'But why?'

We don't need a reason to reject a guy other than not feeling a good vibe. Stop asking us to justify a rejection. No one is owed an explanation, and asking for one just makes you immature.

3. 'Figures. Women like you only want guys with money/a six-pack...'

Guys don’t get a pass at calling women shallow, stupid, or selfish just because they can’t get with them. Guys are just as shallow as women are, so don’t act like you’re better.

4. 'I didn’t like you anyway'

Then why did you ask us out? Seriously, you just got rejected, and you’re so sour that you think it’s appropriate to immaturely lash out at women? Moreover, what would your mom and other female friends say if they found that out?

5. 'You never know ... don’t say no just yet!'

This sounds charming, but yes, most women do know what will happen. It will just so happen that they will stop talking to you because you’re an immature guy who doesn’t take no for an answer.

6. 'Eventually, you’re gonna be all alone...”

Yes, some guys want to give us a warning that when women turn 30, they’re no longer desirable. It’s sad. And we’re over dealing with guys who think that it’s okay to be a woman's desperation option or to be manipulative that way.

7. 'Let’s just be friends with benefits'

No. This never works. If women don’t want a relationship with you, they probably don’t want to get with you, either.

8. 'I won’t be there to cry to if your next boyfriend doesn't treat you right'

How is this even acceptable in anyone’s mind? So, like, if a woman rejects a guy, she deserves to be a victim of bad treatment? Is this really what men think is okay? If anything, stuff like this is what made me swear off ever having a serious relationship ever again.

9. 'I brought you flowers and did all these nice things'

Yes, because guilting a woman into a relationship is attractive. It’s not like it sounds desperate or anything, right? It’s not like it sets the tone for an emotionally abusive relationship, right? Plain and simple: a woman doesn't owe you anything.

10. 'Can you give me one more chance?'

Look. Life isn’t fair. You probably wouldn't give a woman a chance if she were unattractive, either. Stop expecting life to be in easy mode. Life isn’t like that, and there is a chance that you will end up alone, especially if you behave this way and think it’s okay.

11. 'I would be the best boyfriend you ever had; you missed out'

Oh, wait, what? Guys who say this are saying that women are too stupid to make their own decisions or that he knows you better than you know yourself. 

12. 'You led me on'

Without fail, every time I have heard an immature guy say this, it’s because the poor woman they asked out was just being polite or friendly to them. Saying this just makes you a skeevy person and shows you’re not below using coercive language to get your way.

13. 'Can I at least get a hug?'

Really? You’re so whiny that you feel like we owe you a consolation prize? Get outta here.
