You can consider this an open letter to all the male folks out there. If you’re a guy reading this, you’re probably gonna catch your sub on this one. If you’re a lady, you’d most definitely want to add more to the list as it’s inexhaustible.
I’m taking out time to break every table breakable. So, if you happen to catch your sub here, you need to realize that I love you (I truly do) but it’s high time you learned to fix your shenanigans. Here are the 15 most annoying things every woman hates about men.
15 Annoying Things Women Hates That Men Do
1. Guys With Poor Attention Span
These ones never listen when you need them to. Their eyes are never in the right place at the right time, neither do their ears pay any solid attention.
I’m sure you’d agree with me that nothing can be even more annoying than a guy that is not sensitively attentive to anything. Could be short span attention to new clothes, a new hairdo, or even a simple unheard statement of want. Dear guys, The key to winning a lady’s heart is learning to lend an ear to her rants, terrible jokes, and even boring stories. Come on, every girl likes to feel like you’re listening even if she’s suddenly talking about her late grandma-uncle-sister from her paternal-maternal side thrown two generations away.
You should feel exhilarated even if she’s talking about her all-time favorite hairstyle in the middle of the night. Whether relationship or platonic, everybody loves a good listener and more than this a responsive one too. Please have eyes for little details. Like the new hairstyle she has on, or her new pair of shoes. Please pay more attention, it won’t kill you. Sometimes we want to yell “stop pressing your phone and listen to me!” Nothing is more insipidly annoying than guys who don’t notice something new. “I got this new dress to impress you, and you don’t even notice it. Why? please notice it.”
2. Guys That Use Stupid Pickup Lines
This is probably self-explanatory, do I still need to go further? Most Nigerian guys are sitting firmly on this table. From a clumsy “Hello babe” to “sister you look familiar” the number of blunderous statements can make you gag with laughter.
3. Guys Who Are Obsessed With Themselves
Well, here’s what you should know. These ones are usually too full of themselves and will spend the entire day talking about lame things and their inconsequential achievements that no one is really interested in. When it’s time for you to return the favor, they’re suddenly interested in their phones or suddenly looking anywhere except your face.
4. Guys Who Think Catcalls Are Supposedly Synonymous With ‘Sexy’
Catcalls can be insipidly annoying anywhere, but those done on the streets are particularly intolerable. Some of these Guys will sexually harass women especially in the name of ‘toasting’. Sometimes, by physically touching your evident body parts, they’d invade your personal space, and still hold a smug sense of entitlement in the process. Some of these guys are everywhere in the marketplace. Trying to sell their cheap products and essentially ‘taping cheap current’. If you latch out at them, they’d immediately revert from calling you ‘beautiful angel’ to ‘you no even fine self’.
Trying to justify why you should be particularly overwhelmed to be enjoying their curt remarks. Truth is, what most guys don’t seem to understand is that these things would only get a lady further infuriated and farther from you than bring you closer. Please respect yourselves and stop touching under the flimsy excuse to ‘tap current’. It’s barbaric and does not give the best impression.
5. Guys Who Are Afraid Of Making Eye Contact
These guys will look everywhere else when you’re talking to them, but never at you. They’re probably shy, or totally disinterested in your speech. I’d never know. Which do you think is their problem?
6. Guys Who Never Laugh At Anything

This is definitely one of the 15 things every woman hates about men. Not even a joke, or something funny on TV. It’s almost like they’re in a frown competition with the grim reaper 24 hours a day, 7 times a week, and they’ve signed a grim ambassadorial contract with a frown brand from hell. Life is not too hard, please learn to smile a little.
7. Guys That Never Let Your Phone Line Rest

Immediately after they get your number, these guys will keep badgering you with unnecessary calls and messages 24/7. Some will even go on to unequivocally proclaim you the love of their life and their newly found missing rib some hours after they get hold of your number. If you block these guys, they’d get another number and continue from where they supposedly left off. No payment, no incentive yet so much sacrifice for something that just pisses the lady further.
8. Guys Who Want To Be Respected Because They’re Men

Talk about archaic patriarchal privileges! In fact, here’s another slap!

They want you to worship their feet and kowtow to their every command every single time. Every one of their statements begins with “I’m a man…” and ends in “You know how men must be…” They are blindly obsessed with their gender privileges that they don’t see beyond it. These ones don’t ask questions about you because they already have a notion of what you should be. They’d even tell you to come to their houses to cook for them because it’s your inherent duty as a woman. What absurdity!
9. Guys That Cheat Both Virtually, Physically, and Emotionally

Talk about people that cannot be loyal, committed, and focused on a lady at one time. When they get caught In the act, they’d even go on to make up stupid excuses. We see you. We know you, and we’re sending you a message “you better be careful!”.
10. Guys With A Stupefied Sense of Style

Girls have a general aversion for guys who are supposedly unconcerned about their physical appearance and dress sense. Please be friends with a friendly wardrobe. Is it too much to ask?
11. Guys Who Treat Women Unpleasantly

These come in different forms, from the guy who thinks women should be less opinionated to the one that’s generally less cautious to every lady he meets anywhere. Did you just time travel from the 16th century?
Guys who use both gender inappropriate terms, and the one who thinks all women are crazy, to those guys who are never courteous enough to treat ladies appropriately. Talk about body shamers and male privileges. I have one word for you if you’re generally disrespectful to ladies. “You’re a brutish disgrace to your species!”
12. Guys That Slide into DMs with Provocative Messages
“Aw are u” “Hello babe” “Hi my luv” “Hi dear”.
Please do I know you? Why are you calling me dear?? Who is your dear???
Well, I have a few words for you.
