They seem like the ideal men. In words, with CVs, with photos on LinkedIn. Until you live with them and realize you've taken a 24/7 seminar on the disappointment of your life.
5 types of men you should not romanticize more than necessary:
1. The mysterious one
We all like a silent man. This is the classic type they say is "protected." But from what? From feelings, from communication, from emotional openness? He is probably obsessed with control and "manliness" that no longer has a place even in a 1950s movie script. He is not enigmatic, he is emotionally locked up.
2. The sweet one
He's careful, he talks about feelings, he knows the dates of anniversaries - and yet... he doesn't stir up any emotions! Not because he's bad, but because he's more "comfortable" than a man to lean on.
3. The successful one
He has expensive watches, talks about investments, and is always “on a date.” His romance with her is like his resume: long, tedious, full of accomplishments — but without feelings. If love is a checklist, he’s at the top. If it’s commitment? Wrong address.
4. That comedian
He has humor, style, well-chosen words. What doesn't he have? Sincerity. For him, intimacy is a game, not pure feeling. And when you try to talk about something serious? He always turns it around with jokes.
5. He "made them heavy"
He is calm, he has presence, he speaks in a low tone and thinks for a long time before answering. But when you spend more time with him, you realize that depth is more style than substance. He talks about the “purpose of life”, but when you ask him about you – he doesn’t have much to say. He is often just emotionally empty.
