10 signs you’re about to be a single man
You and your girl have been together for a while. You are blissfully happy and, what seems like all of a sudden, you’re having that dreaded “it’s over” conversation. What the hell happened?
You missed the signs.
Let’s keep it real, there are always signs there is trouble in a relationship. Be smart and recognize them because you might be able to repair the situation.
Or at least have the satisfaction of dumping her first.
I kid, I kid…
Let’s get to it: 10 signs you’re about to be a single man (in no particular order):
- She avoids referring to you as her man: Should be fairly obvious but many times a man is so gleefully happy he does not realize she stopped introducing him as “my boyfriend NAME” to “this is NAME”. Let me give you a mini-tip: look out for this from the beginning because a lot of women (and men) do this unconsciously.
- Lost interest in sex: Figured I would get the obvious ones out of the way. Lack of intimacy is a key sign she is phasing you out of her life. Do not confuse this with a woman that might have higher priorities, for example a single-parent, demanding job, etc. If there haven’t been significant changes in her life, she is still behaving as she always did (going out with friends, etc.) and her interest in sex dropped (along with other signs on this list) you can begin to question if something is wrong.
- The friends have priority: You’d like to go out on Saturday but she’s going out with her girls. You want to catch a movie on Wednesday but she’s going out with her girls. Get the drift? If she is consistently picking her friends over you, well, isn’t the point of being in a relationship to spend time together? Don’t whine if she wants to spend some time with her girls. Her life can’t be all about you, ya know?
- Call me sometime..: Does she call/send text messages/IM/email etc. as much as she once did? Happy women want to talk to their men and will break their neck trying to get in touch. The pissed off woman won’t really care if she talks to you or not. Lack of communication is another “putting distance between us” maneuver.
- The “click” is gone: You remember how it was in the beginning? The connection was so strong; the vibe was flowing, even when things were tough. Now, you cannot connect anymore. Mentally, she’s not there or something has changed….perhaps it is you?
- You’re always wrong: No one is wrong all the time, except you of course. She angry at you and honestly, this is hard one to get out of. She’s pushing you away but unwilling to discuss why.
- No more public displays of affection: Remember when you used to hold hands walking in the mall, cuddle at the movies, kiss in public? Another “putting distance between you” move that means she has concerns about how others view her relationship with you.
- She points out your differences: Are your long-term expectations in sync? If she wants to focus on her career and you want a stay at home mother for your kids, there is a problem. Perhaps entering the relationship one or both of you thought the other would change and it has become clear to her that is not going to happen.
- Outside interests are a priority: Every one gains new interests but if these interests take priority over time with you, that is a sign where she is resisting the opportunity to spend time with you. People make time for the people important to them.
- Her friends seem distant towards you: It is not uncommon for women to talk to their friends about a problem in their relationship before talking to their boyfriend. If you spend time with her friends you might notice a change in how her friends interact with you…because they know something you don’t.
Look back on your previous relationships and see if you can spot the signs where the relationship started to crumble. Learn from those experiences and look out for them in the future. Do not jump to conclusions at the smallest sign of change. If she’s busy three times you want to go out it could be she has school assignments or a work project that takes priority. Look for these signs consistent over time and try to work it out.
Or dump her first. I kid…I kid.

Good points. Her friends will almost always give it away. At least my girlfriend’s will.

Kayleen Turner Says:
Andre what do you do when her friends give it away? Do you talk to her about it? Does she admit it?
I do not talk to my girlfriends about problems, nothing serious. He left the toilet seat up and I fell in type of thing.

When I’m not feeling it anymore I cut things off. Why avoid it?
Wow Tyme, I’m so happy for you. Changed the whole site. What will your readers think?

Dale Jared Says:
I remember when I noticed my ex fiance started introducing me as Dale instead of my boyfriend Dale. I don’t know how long she’d been doing it but I noticed it when she introduced me to a guy co-worker and I said her boyfriend. I asked her why she didn’t say that and she said she just didn’t. We broke up about two months after that.

Hector Says:
Kudos on the change. I’m with Dale, I remember when that happened and it was with a guy I wanted her to say “this is my man Hector”. She said “this is Hector” and I WTF’d her and she gave me some excuse. I did it back with a cute chick and my girl didn’t care. We broke up soon after that. Looking back there were a bunch of signs I wasn’t paying attention to.

Jenni do you want out of your relationship? If I noticed my girlfriend doing these things what do I do to stop the breakup from happening? I thought things weren’t right because she is acting differently but when I ask her about it, she said nothing is wrong.

Hey Phillipe! Yeah, I know I made a big change without any notice. I wonder how many peeps will be completely pissed off.
Here we go with the Tyme is back thing…
Thank you.

Why don’t you like your boyfriend and friends around each other?

Posted on February 9th, 2008 at 4:06 pm
Tyme White Says:
If you spent time with them before and now she purposely keeps you away from them…well, that’s not a good sign. Ask her about it.
Posted on February 9th, 2008 at 4:07 pm
Tyme White Says:
Each relationship is different. How long has it been going on and what signs is she doing? I’m not an expert but I’d suggest talking to her. There isn’t one “right” answer.
Posted on February 9th, 2008 at 4:09 pm
Tyme White Says:
Thanks!
Some women take their cues from the man so yes, it is very possible she thinks the man has changed and is reacting to that.
Posted on February 9th, 2008 at 4:10 pm
Tyme White Says:
That shouldn’t be a problem.

Try to talk things out first. Perhaps there is a way to work things out.

Tyme White Says:
More! Wow, it’s Saturday!
Isn’t what you said the same as the guy always being wrong? o_O
Posted on February 9th, 2008 at 4:13 pm
Tyme White Says:
I have in the past. I try not to now. I prefer to say what is on my mind and get it off my chest. If I did one, without realizing it, it would be the putting distance ones while I’m still in the “what do I want to do” stage.
Once I detach the guy can feel it like a door slam and I am open about it. I’m not there anymore.
Posted on February 9th, 2008 at 4:14 pm
Tyme White Says:
I changed topic matter and removed all the old content.
No one is always right so call her on it when she’s wrong. Yes, you can send questions using the link on the sidebar.
Posted on February 9th, 2008 at 4:16 pm
Tyme White Says:
It depends on the woman and how long this has been going on. Some relationships can be repaired, most weren’t meant to.

I caught myself last talking to a dude and when my boyfriend came up I introduced him by name, not title. I didn’t want that dude to know I was taken but I don’t think I want to break up with my boyfriend.

Will you do drink thingies with us? For us? How does that work? I’m going to send you a request email.
About this, I do it when I try to make it work and my boyfriend isn’t doing his part. Too much responsibility on me. Another request idea.

I do speak up but men in general are not ones to share their feelings. Can you imagine how hard it is to try to bond with someone that doesn’t share back? What else can a woman do but begin to place distance between each other?

About your article, I had them all happen to me and it was never good. I’ve done them as well. You going to do the guys side?

Morna Says:
I felt compelled to comment. Don’t most people express their feelings to the person they feel attached to? In my experience if I said something distasteful, it went in one ear, out the other. The relationship started to crumble because of the lack of communication. Why talk to a wall?

Thank you for making the list. I will try to be sneakier next time.

Tyme White Says:
Alan, all women are different but usually (in my experience) there are serious issues within the relationship if she is around people and downplaying the relationship. In truth, it is better that she be honest and not refer to you as a her boyfriend/significant out of habit if she is having doubts. It’s like saying “I love you” before you leave out or hang up the phone. It becomes a habit and loses its meaning.

Tyme, darlin’ how are you? I admit it, don’t hate me. I like your site now much much more than the other one. I ain’t into the blogging scene. I’m into romance.
I think if the relationship has value she might dip into these because she doesn’t want to hurt her boyfriend. Put it off as long as possible.

I don’t blame ya. It’s a waste of time to play games.

I’m sorry things didn’t work out. I hope the pain eases soon.

Success so far boo. Video and podcast? You didn’t mention that.

Tyme White Says:
LMAO I had a mini giggle fit reading your comment. I’ll talk about what I want, this is MY house!
I have more comments that aren’t displaying for some reason. I’m calling it quits and we’ll just move on from here (my sincerest apologies everyone).

Tyme White Says:
Was I supposed to? My bad. I’m still scoping out what I want for the site. Wait, why was I supposed to mention it again?

You’re supposed to tell all. Did you miss the memo? Women.

Thanks for the explanation Tyme. I responded to a couple of people and they didn’t show up. It’s ok, looking forward to your next article. You fixed it, that’s the important part.

I remember that podcast when ya’ll had a bet. You were wearing the zipper shorts and the zipper got stuck. Scrivs was funny with with cockblocks, all in good fun. I miss that cast. It really made my day. Made me laugh.

Phillipe Says:
Yeah. I remember Felicia fell in love with Scrivs over his reaction to that. Flipped out and OVA. I miss it too. Who doesn’t? Scrivs told it like it was and they would get all deep but real. Had me reading Daunte(spelling?) on 9rules, WTF? Never found anything like it since then either. They had a synergy that just sucks people in.
Tyme, whatever you did to comments it is much easier to follow. I have a zillion notices. Is there a way to subscribe by RSS instead?

Terri Says:
Felicia fell in love when she got a video from Scrivs. I miss the podcast too. Guaranteed laugh or insight on something. I never heard of Scrivs before showing so many sides of himself.
I couldn’t keep up with Daunte/Donte discussions but I tried which still surprises me. I had too much going on.
Tyme are you going to do the podcast yourself or are you going to have guests?

Delany Says:
I see one problem with the comments. The last comment isn’t at the bottom. With this many comments that’s hard to follow.
I think I lost my place LOL. I know it’s here but I can’t find it!
Posted on February 11th, 2008 at 12:32 am
Felix Says:
I just spent about 5 minutes trying to find a comment I know is here. Can you go back to normal comments? It is really hard to find ish.
Posted on February 11th, 2008 at 12:54 am
Phillipe Says:
Sup man. You try doing a search in the browser? It will be worse tomorrow.
Posted on February 11th, 2008 at 12:57 am
Felix Says:
It’s not that important. How you doing dawg? What you been up to? How long has it been?
Posted on February 11th, 2008 at 1:00 am
Felix Says:
And I didn’t thread it. Sorry.
Posted on February 11th, 2008 at 1:00 am
Phillipe Says:
It’s a good idea but I don’t see it working. The sites I saw it on didn’t have a lot of topics. We need a forum but turning of the threads would help.
Doing good man, how are you? It’s been a minute, when Tyme closed comments she blocked us talking to her and each other. I felt her though, you know how women have to find themselves lol.
Posted on February 11th, 2008 at 1:04 am
Felix Says:
Why is your comment on top of mine? Your comment is covering mine. The competition continues!
Yeah I know. I view it like snakes shedding their skin. The new skin looks better than the old one.
Posted on February 11th, 2008 at 1:06 am
Phillipe Says:
Man, what you drinking? Your comment is fine and did you just compare Tyme to a snake? Shedding it’s skin?????????

Shit, didn’t think of it like that. How about a caterpillar into a butterfly?
Your comments cover mine, I swear. I haven’t had enough to fake your comments having priority over mine.
Posted on February 11th, 2008 at 1:11 am
Phillipe Says:
Comment priority? What browser are you using? You’re killing me man.
Posted on February 11th, 2008 at 1:14 am
Felix Says:
What took you so long? Internet Explorer. When you thread yours are on top.

Don’t ever use Internet Explorer again. I just remembered all the comments are going into moderation so we probably will not be able to hook up with the rest of the crew until tomorrow.

I was thinking the same thing cause there should be more people. I’ll download and install it in the morning. I’ll check back tomorrow. Oooh, when I tell Adele Tyme is back she might make me a pot of coffee in the morning.
Posted on February 11th, 2008 at 1:21 am
Phillipe Says:
Daaaammn, Adele is still around? I thought she was getting transferred? Maybe I’m thinking of someone else.
Make it afternoon. Gives Tyme time to do whatever she’s going to do with the comments. Ooh, maybe a podcast will be up tomorrow. That would be nice!
Posted on February 11th, 2008 at 1:24 am
Felix Says:
A podcast would make my day. Make Monday go faster.
She DID get transferred and she’s back meaner than a bear without food. I don’t believe I just typed that. I’m gone, see you tomorrow afternoon.

What is with you and animals tonight? LOL. Peace.

I just missed you guys! I’ll try and sneak in this afternoon, you did mean the 11th, right? No time was stated so I hope I don’t miss anything.
Please make it so the last comment is at the bottom.
Sleep tight Tyme!

[...] the past 18 months you could understand it would take some time for it to pick up again. However, 100+ comments later and you can see her audience never left, they were just waiting [...]

Gwen Says:
The gang is back! Hi! *waves to everyone
Tyme can you do an article on how to gracefully breakup? I think everyone wants to avoid that conversation as much as possible, even the one starting it.
What do you mean by threaded?

Damn, my fiance does four of these. We’re supposed to get married in November. I could tell something was wrong but when I asked her about it, she said everything was ok.

I don’t do these on purpose, but I realize now I do them. I think it is the natural reaction to protect yourself from pain.

Tyme White Says:
Yeah, um, not exactly sure what to say here so…I’ll flip the comments around because I see what you mean.
After I have some hot chocolate lol.
EDIT: Flipping it around isn’t as easy as I thought because I have to mess with some stylesheets. Let me fix my hot chocolate and I’ll fiddle with it this morning. So expect things to change. In the meantime, please reply at the bottom of the page not clicking reply at the top.
And a warning, when I do this, most of my comments are not going to make any sense lol. You won’t be able to tell who I made them to. Actually I’m glad this happened. Using the plugin makes one dependent on it, and on WP. Ya’ll know I like being independent!
