If a man displays these 7 specific behaviors, he’s probably a low quality person

There’s a chasm of difference between a quality man and a low-quality one.

This distinction boils down to behavior. A low-quality man often doesn’t reveal his true self immediately, but his actions eventually give him away.

Just as you can spot a fake Gucci bag by inspecting its stitching, you can pinpoint a low-quality man by observing certain behaviors.

When a man exhibits these specific behaviors, it’s likely he’s not the catch you might think he is.

Next up, I’ll be sharing these telltale signs with you, helping you to avoid the heartache that comes with investing in a low quality person. I’ve seen it all, my dear readers – the good, the bad, and the downright ugly.

So get ready to take notes: these are the behaviors to watch out for.

1) He never takes responsibility

In the world of relationships, there’s one trait that sticks out like a sore thumb: an inability to take responsibility.

Men who are low quality often have this trait in spades.

You see, it’s easy to point fingers and lay blame elsewhere. It requires little mental effort and allows one to remain comfortably ensconced in their bubble of self-delusion.

But real men, quality men, take responsibility for their actions. They understand that they are not infallible, that they make mistakes. And more importantly, they learn from these mistakes.

When a man never takes responsibility for his actions, it’s a glaring red flag. It screams of immaturity and a lack of emotional intelligence.

2) He’s overly nice

Now, this might sound a little counterintuitive. After all, isn’t being nice a good thing?

Well, yes and no.

In a healthy relationship, kindness is essential. But when a man is overly nice all the time, it can actually be a warning sign.

Men who are excessively nice often do so to mask their insecurities or to manipulate the perception others have of them. It can be an effort to control you or the situation, or to avoid conflict at any cost.

A quality man knows how to balance being kind and being real. He’s able to assert his needs and stand his ground, even if it might lead to a disagreement.

So if your man never disagrees with you, never voices his own opinion, and always goes along with whatever you say or do, it’s time for some serious reflection. This behavior could suggest that he’s not the genuine, quality man you’re seeking.

3) He’s excessively possessive

In my experience, both personal and professional, one of the biggest red flags in a man’s behavior is possessiveness.

A man who is excessively possessive may seem passionate or protective at first. But let’s not sugarcoat it – it’s not healthy, and it’s certainly not a sign of a quality man.

Quality men understand that their partners are individuals with their own lives, interests, and friends. They don’t try to control or limit their partner’s actions.

Now, don’t get me wrong. A little bit of jealousy in a relationship is natural. But when it becomes excessive, it’s a clear sign of insecurity and codependency.

In fact, I’ve explored this topic in depth in my book Breaking The Attachment: How To Overcome Codependency in Your Relationship.

It provides insights and practical tips on how to deal with codependency and build healthier relationships. If possessiveness is something you recognize in your relationship, this book could be the eye-opener you need. 

4) He lacks empathy

Empathy – the ability to understand and share the feelings of others – is a crucial quality in any person, especially in a romantic partner.

A man who lacks empathy is a man who has difficulty connecting on a deeper emotional level. He may struggle to understand your perspective or fail to validate your feelings. This can lead to a relationship that feels one-sided and emotionally draining.

I’ve seen it time and time again, and believe me, it’s not a trait that improves with time.

One of my favorite quotes is from the brilliant Maya Angelou: “I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel.”

A man who lacks empathy will likely make you feel unimportant and unheard. His inability to truly connect with your emotions can leave an indelible mark on your relationship. It’s a clear indicator that he might not be the quality man you deserve.

5) He’s disrespectful

Respect is non-negotiable in any relationship. If a man is disrespectful towards you or others, it’s a clear sign of his character – or lack thereof.

Whether it’s crude language, dismissive behavior, or simply ignoring boundaries, disrespect can take many forms. But in each case, it reveals the same truth – this man does not value you or others as he should.

In my years of relationship counseling, I’ve realized that respect is the foundation of every healthy relationship. Without it, no amount of charm or good looks can salvage the bond.

A man who truly values you will show you respect in all situations. He will listen to your words, value your opinions, and treat you with kindness and consideration.

6) He lacks ambition

Ambition isn’t about having a high-paying job or a flashy car. It’s about having goals, dreams, and the drive to achieve them.

A man who lacks ambition often also lacks other key qualities – like motivation, determination, and a sense of responsibility. These are the men who are content with mediocrity, who lack the drive to better themselves or their circumstances.

Nelson Mandela once said, “There is no passion to be found playing small – in settling for a life that is less than the one you are capable of living.” This quote rings true in relationships too.

A quality man will have his own ambitions and will support you in pursuing yours.

7) He’s always the victim

Life is full of ups and downs, but how we respond to these challenges defines us.

If a man constantly sees himself as the victim, blaming others or circumstances for his failures and misfortunes, it’s a glaring sign of his low quality.

As I’ve touched on a little already earlier, playing the victim is an easy escape from taking responsibility. It’s a way to avoid facing the reality that we may be the cause of our own problems.

A quality man acknowledges his mistakes, learns from them, and strives to grow. He doesn’t wallow in self-pity or point fingers at others.

So if your man is always playing the victim, it’s time for a reality check. You deserve a partner who can face life’s trials head-on, not one who hides behind excuses and blame.

Final thoughts

Recognizing the signs of a low-quality man can be challenging, especially when you’re emotionally invested in the relationship. However, it’s crucial to internalize these signs and be honest with yourself about your partner’s behavior.

Remember, everyone deserves respect, empathy, and a partner who is willing to grow with them. A quality man will show all these traits and more. If your man falls short, it might be time for some serious reflection.
