You may have wondered at some point of your present relationship if you are doing the right thing or if you are just wasting your time.

The whole relationship/dating game is one of risk. You intentionally and carefully give yourself into it, hoping for the best, hoping that the other person is just as invested and passionate about the you and the relationship, hoping that they are stoked about spending the rest of their life with you, just as you are about doing so with them.

Sadly though, there are fake affections out there and these are five ways to know someone who is only wasting your time.

1. You are not the only one

They swear they are mentally done with the other person and that it is just for some complicated reason that they are still physically with them.

They ask for a little time to sort things out so they can commit to you fully but guess what, it’s been 7 months now and nothing has changed.

Women are capable of this stunt, too.

2. No progress

Relationships are all about growth. If your relationship is not reaching new levels in every aspect, commitment » especially, then why are you in it?
3. He or she lies a lot

Anyone that’s regularly caught in a web of lies cannot be the one for you.

And that’s because you never really know who you’re dating when you date a liar, and that should scare the pants off you.

If your current partner is constantly lying to you no matter how minor or major the issue, they are the one.

4. Incompatible goals and values

Compatibility » is key in any relationship. You can always tell what a person values and what they place premium on. Do not waste any more of your time if you find out that you are on absolutely different pages when it comes to the most important things.

It’s important that you list out just what you want out of a relationship and make sure your goals align with his or hers. Understanding early on that the two of you aren’t on the same page can save you both time and unnecessary heartache.

5. Crap communication always

If you’re constantly explaining yourself and your feelings, reminding them of the same things over and over again and it seems they couldn’t care less, you’re probably wasting your time.
