He's gone! Ooh wow, ooh why?

There is something not right here, but it was good while it lasted

Men can be pretty open about why we leave relationships, you ladies just have to learn how to face it!. Men aren’t embarrassed if the reasons are petty, egotistical or selfish. For better or for worse, men are a bit more accepting than women of the idea, “This is who I am. I’d rather find somebody who accepts my major flaws than try to fix them.” That’s why some of our reasons for leaving relationships can leave you going, “Huh?” because you can’t help but wonder, “Isn’t that just going to keep happening?” Maybe. Or maybe men have the best filters ever, and a very efficient dating process because they aren’t ashamed of their less-than-admirable needs. Here are a few harsh but true reasons men leave women.


THEY WANT A YOUNGER WOMAN

Will you  be willing to  do a makeup - aging test
so I can see what you will look like 10-20 years from now?

Some men are crazy about a woman, but they know that by the time they’ve dated for a while, lived together and gotten married, she would be older than the woman they envisioned having  children with.


THEY CANNOT HANDLE YOUR MOODS
It’s sad and not necessarily fair, but some men cannot stay with a woman who deals with depression, anxiety, or even just drastic shift in moods. They don’t like wondering if every day they’ll need to cancel their plans to play therapist. Again, it’s not fair, but it is what it is.

SHE’S NOT QUITE CRAZY ENOUGH
Then you have men who love themselves some crazy. Some men crave women who put them in their place, get jealous and act a little controlling. Might those men need therapy? Yes, and there are a lot of them.<smirking>

SHE’S DONE SOMETHING MESSED UP IN THE PAST

When are you going to let go of my past messups?

Men aren’t always as forgiving as women are (that says a whole lot). A lot of men are terrified if they know a woman cheated on a past partner. They don’t understand female infidelity, and they just think it will happen again.

SHE WANTS TO WORK FOREVER
There are some old-fashioned types who want a woman who promises to quit working when they get married or have children. If the woman won’t, that man leaves. Good riddance to him, right?

SHE DOESN’T WANT TO WORK
In general, a man shouldn’t have a say in whether or not his partner works. If a woman has plenty of money saved up or has a trust fund and would rather do philanthropic work than for-profit work, she should get to do that. But some men won’t be with a woman who doesn’t make any income.

SHE LETS HERSELF GO

This scale needs to ssssstop lying!

It always pains me to have to write about this anywhere, but unfortunately, plenty of men have no issue admitting, “I left my wife because she let herself go.” Surely the man’s six-pack is on point…not.

SHE TALKS ABOUT HOUSE STUFF TOO MUCH
Many men complain that their partners became their roommate and that all they would talk about was toilet paper consistency, dirty dishes, and laundry detergent. The magic just…went away.

SHE HAS TOO MANY MALE ADMIRERS

I like that butt....not enough to make her my woman!
She draws too much damn  attention!

Men can have some pretty big egos. Sometimes, it doesn’t matter if a woman is clearly loyal and honest–if she has too many other men after her, her partner won’t want to deal with it.


SHE LOSES HER SOCIAL LIFE
A lot of men can get nervous when their partner loses her own identity and social life. Nobody wants to feel that their partner depends on them for human interaction.

SHE’S NOT A GOOD NURTURER
While men don’t want to play therapist to a depressed woman, they certainly want someone to play mommy to them when they’re down. Men will often leave women if those women don’t do a good job of nurturing and babying them when they’re upset.


SHE DOESN’T BELIEVE IN HIM
A man doesn’t want to be with a woman who doesn’t believe in his dreams. If he senses his partner doesn’t think he’s the best at what he does and doesn’t believe he will succeed, he won’t stick around.


SHE DOMINATED HIS SOCIAL CALENDAR
If a man wakes up every day to new events added to his calendar that he didn’t put there, he may feel suffocated and bolt.

SHE DIDN’T WANT A FAMILY

Are you serious?  you didn't want a kid like Me? 

Some men really really want to be fathers, and their partners simply don’t want that. For those men, a healthy, loving, romantic relationship just isn’t enough.


SOME MEN FEEL THEY HAVEN’T SLEPT AROUND ENOUGH
Then, finally, you have the guys who adore a woman but think, “I’m 32. I easily have another decade of landing some pretty hot tail ahead of me. Why stop now?”
