In dating, you soon realize that you are really dating the usual suspects. Now what I mean by that is not that they committed some sort of crime, but in dating they usually fall in the mold of certain categories. I am sure men have categories for women as well and no, I am not talking about wifey or jumpoff although those categories exist. I like to think as unique as we are, we all fit some type of mold when it comes to our personality. Now I can't speak in details about women but I can tell you a few usual suspects as it relates to men. Here goes nothing
Mr. Run of The Mill/Mr. Ordinary
He is the guy that really has no special qualities about him.
He is a decent guy but nothing to swoon over but he is datable for the time being.
Mr. Rico Suave
This guy think his shit don't stink because he think he is fine as wine or maybe because he's light skin that he feel like women should flock to him. He stays in the mirror more than a AKA and he think he is the next male supermodel.
Mr. Flimsy
This guys has no backbone whatsoever! You can tell him what to do, where to be and who to be and he is okay with, as long as he can touch the hem of your garment.
Mr. Can You Cook?
As soon as you meet this guy, this is one of his first questions to you. Can you cook? He wants the traditional wife when he gets married but he still wants you to work and split the bills down the middle. He could never be with, Ms. Can you Provide For Me?
Mr. Debate
This dude takes pleasure in debating every notion that comes out of your mouth and for what? no reason at all. He just likes to be disagreeable. Even when he is wrong he will still debate on why he is RIGHT. He even will debate on things you agree on just for debate sake.
Mr. Big
This guy think he is a modern marvel because he has a huge you know what and finds ways to bring it up in the conversation. Case and point, "Most women can't handle what I got" or the famous "I'm not a small brother, regular condoms don't fit me!" and all you're thinking is, WHO CARES?, do you have anything else to offer other than your abnormal organs?
Mr. Brag
This Guy thinks he is the shit because he doesn't have kids, never married and has a job. MAN PLEASE! There is a lot of brothers that have that, but don't think women should bow down to them. Every conversation with a woman he is dating or getting to know he has to bring up this piece of information. As if we are suppose to be bow down on our knees and think he is the second coming of Jesus. Again I say, MAN PLEASE!
So these are just a few, there are a lot more categories. Men and Women share a few you gave encountered over the years.

Mr. I am too busy "working on my career" can't multitask face....
This is the guy that has the swag you want but the relationship you will never have. He acts as if having a job, hanging out with friends, spending time with family, "Me Time" and developing a frienship with a female is just too much. He can only do 4 out of 5 and guess which one is left out. But if you are at work and don't respond to a text there is an instant meltdown............WOW!!!! I call this guy also the one that wants to be in control that is used to being chased but with his lazy mentality he can't even wake up to the occasion. And this is not a gender specific comment ....If the shoe fits wear it!!!!
LMAO, yes I have Mr. Focusing on my career, he is not great at multitasking...lol
LMAO at "touch the hem of your garment"! Sadly I have encountered ALL of these men in my dating experiences! Let's not forget Mr. Cheap/Every woman is a gold digger but I aint no trick, or Mr. Bitter Party of 1! I could go on forever...
I had to share this...i was just sending messages back and forth to a guy i just met.....to make a long story short he was like you want to see me i was like i was thinking about going to Los Cucos tonight i like their margaritas......he was like let me check and see if i have enough money i don't get paid until Friday...........Really Dude REally!!! Am I wrong???
What about Mr. If it Ain't One Thing, It's Another? It's always something with him. This is the dude that would be perfect, but only if. He always has something going on in his life causing a ripple effect, no stability, and all plans go out the window.
LMAO,, ya'll got me laughing today. How about Mr. I'm So Happy To Be Here, he is like Mr. Flimsy but he act like he hasn't ever done anything before. He is the guy when you go out to the club that is dancing so hard and smiling ear to ear like he just got paid in Trident Layers.
Yes,yes,yes!! I can relate to each of those scenarios. Especially Mr. Busy who act like he can't multitask. How can he be the head of the house or lead me if he can't even focus on more than one thing at a time?!
I read an article that said "you are what you attract" or something to that effect...so I am seeing a common trend of men who dont have money or are broke attempting to date some of the ladies in here..why do you think you attract that type of men? Do you think your personality or the vibe you give off has these type of men flocking to you? Not just the broke men..but all of these "usual" suspect men..if its becoming a trend..then you may have to ask that question to yourself...
These are some interesting and typical categories that I am sure plenty of men fall under...I can say I have fallen under the "Mr. Debate" category a few times..lol
Some of the interesting women categories I have encountered over the years are...
"Mrs Independent aka Mrs Im the Man" - she says she wants a man but at the drop of hat she is quick to spew that she doesnt need a man to do ish for her because she can do it all including wear the pants...but she says she wants a man...
"Mrs Artificial" - under the dark lights of the bar or club she is a superstar, but after she takes off the layers of make up, push up bra, weave, eyelashes, padded jeans or underwear, corset..she looks like your little brother with heels on...
"Mrs Free Date" - she only calls you up when she is hungry, wants to do happy hour or just go out for entertainment because she wants a man to pay...the term "treat a man to a date" or "dutch" are words and phrases that cease to exist in her vocabulary..she keeps certain men around for this purpose only and will only contact them when her stomach starts to rumble...
"Mrs In Denial Booty Call" - she wants to date you but she knows you are not interested, so she does whatever she can to get your attention and that usually ends up being in the bed room only..yet after the bedrooms she wonders why you dont call her or go out with her..gets upset with you..and doesnt talk to you for awhile..then the cycle starts again"....
"Mrs Broke Bouche" - she usually rocks the top designer fashions but cant pay her car note...orders the most expensive meal and drinks on dates but buys McDonalds and well drinks when she is hanging with the girls...gets her hair, nails and toes done every week but is on the verge of getting her utilities cut off every week due to her extravagant ways...wont date a man who isn't balling, but the only ballers she sees is when she is waiting by the locker room after a Mavericks or Cowboys game...
and one of my favorites...
"Mrs I Dont get the hint" - she usually is a nice young lady but for whatever reason the man she likes just doesnt like her back. She very well may be attractive, intelligent, sweet, etc, etc, etc..but she just isnt what you want. You dont respond to her texts, phone calls, invites to come over or go out, but she keeps on trying. She gets mad at you and wonders why you dont, and when you tell her the real deal, she cant except the fact that you just arent interested and thinks something is wrong with you or God forbid that she is being rejected
All these split personalities are just a figment of our imagination!!!
Slick taste**** said that is true... you are a reflection of what you attract...
So true
A Man's Thought, your usual suspect list was HILARIOUS, but remember in your own words. You are what you attract. So you are Mr. Free Date, Mr. Artificial, Mr. Denial Booty Call, and Mr. Broke Bouche. I don't think it has to be true that you are what you attract, it just may be that your tolerance may be higher than usual.
Well with all this male and female bashing. I'm going to go out on a limb and say that I love my black men and without you we as women wouldn't be as great as we are and vice versa. So, with that being said I uplift the Mr. This and That's of the world because past, present, and future they have been our fathers, grandfathers, brothers, uncles, nephews, sons, best friends, and lovers. Let's all just show some love!
Uhh KK, this is not Reginald Denny, "Can't we all just Get Along" Type post, there is no male or female bashing that I have witness and this doesn't have much to do with race since anyone can fit in these categories.
In the world of blogs conflicts and debates are welcomed. So let's not wave the white flag just yet....lol.....
LOL @ Mrs ClutchPearls..Ive attacted everything under the sun at some point in my life but the category I attact the most are women who are married or in a relationship so I am not sure what vibe I am giving off but I guess in that sense I am what I attract...lol..and well said response to KK...
A Man's Thought, great thought to ponder, about attracting a married person, I have had this situation as well and a few of friends expressed the same thing. Could it be that deep down we don't desire a commitment or we don't truly want to give ourselves to someone fully? Just a thought, when you figure it out let me know....lol
Boooooo, lol!
LOL @ KK
To anyone that may say you attract what you are.........I have to agree as well as disagree. Because in the same breath opposites attract. Growing up most of us have heard from your parents surround yourself with people that are going places and have goals. Does that mean I didn't have goals or maybe the goals weren't quite established. With that being said a man or woman that may be broke, down on their luck, cheap etc. may just want to rub shoulders with someone that is the complete opposite in the words of Chris Brown "Gimme Dat".........just don't bruise a cheek to get it..........Anyhooo you can say yeah maybe I am broke and I attract broke men or maybe its just that a broke man sees a woman that can potentially take care of him....NOT I go back to a previous comment know who you dealing with SON cause I don't play with my finances so I run at the sight of instability, brokeassness, wrinkled dress shirts, mix-match socks and turned up K-Swiss........ugghhh!!! My mother always use to say you can't ask for what you NOT.........and a man that can't pay for a $3 margarita during happy hour is not it........AND I SAY THAT WITH MY CHEST!!!!!
Asimplejoy, well put... man that was freaking Hilarious....like Kanye would say #that shit cray!
Too funny. You forgot "Mr. Late Thug" the dude you finally decided that age 30 he can be hard. He wears cornrows, wears his pants sagging to his knees, and got tattoos from his wrists on up. The problem is he's really a coward and has to be home by 11 because his mama took his house key away. LOL.

As usual I will prob be the last to comment. I have met alot of different ladies in my day... I can say I fall in a few different categories of yours. Currently I'm Mr. No multitasking skills... However what women always seem to fail to realize is, when we dont multitask to fit you in, we probably dont want you as much as you think we do. every time I have been to busy to be with a woman, she was never wife material.. She was at that time material... Funny how we are to blame for why we dont want you... If he want to spend time with you but he doesn't want to be "yours"as women you have to either leave him alone or give up that vagina... Cuz that is what he want... Sorry for being blunt. a man know what he want.. If he is passive or aggressive... When a man find what he want, that women will know... I used to always try to argue men and our maturity rate. But women always make the fatal flaw of getting with a man potential and over look what they currently have.....Church.... Sorry I didnt proof read sue me...
