<\/p>\nSo you met a seemingly great guy who swept you off your feet and wined and dined you to the point where you were sure it was love. But now something just doesn\u2019t feel right.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
If that sounds like you, we\u2019re here to help you decide whether your Prince Charming is the real deal \u2014 or a fake.<\/p>\n
He\u2019s no longer reliable
\nWe understand that everyone makes mistakes, bails on social engagements and says no to plans even though all they\u2019re really doing is staying in with a bowl of popcorn and some great movies. But if your guy is constantly saying yes and then ditching you, showing up late or making you feel like you\u2019re no longer the princess he once treated you like, he might not be worth keeping around.<\/p>\n
He hasn\u2019t introduced you to his friends
\nYou don\u2019t need to be immediately absorbed into his circle, and some people are slower to open up their social world to others, but if you have yet to meet even one of his friends after a few months, there might be something strange going on. What is he hiding? Why is he being cagey about his buddies? Give it time, but also be aware that if he\u2019s not letting you get to know the people he\u2019s close to, you could be dealing with someone who isn\u2019t in it for the long haul.<\/p>\n
text messageYou always have to call or text him
\nSure, guys can be slower to communicate, but if you\u2019re the only one doing any work to keep the two of you together now that he\u2019s wooed you, that\u2019s a red flag worth noting. You don\u2019t want a guy that\u2019s clingy or needy, but you also shouldn\u2019t be the only one putting in the effort to keep in touch. Relationships are a two way street and need a constant balance to really survive.<\/p>\n
He hasn\u2019t really opened up
\nSpending time with someone great can feel like a whirlwind of romance and excitement, but once the courting phase winds down, you want something of substance to retain the relationship. If he hasn\u2019t opened up to you and remains tight-lipped about his life other than the basics, you might be dealing with a dude who has issues. He doesn\u2019t need to wear his heart on his sleeve, but he does need to be capable of creating an emotional connection with people around him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
