7 Things High-Quality Men Do Differently When They’re Actually Serious About You
By Katie Mather
1. He texts you back. Honestly, it’s depressing that this is a qualification of a high-quality man, instead of the requirement of basic and polite human interaction like it should be. Seriously, the standards are so low and Jeff still can’t fucking meet them.
2. But he won’t text you between 1am and 4am. You won’t be rising from your blissful 7–8 hour-long slumber to that dreaded “you up?” text that awakens pure fury and rage within the inner depths of your soul. Why the fuck would you be up at 2:56am on a Wednesday, Sean?
3. He’s not afraid to show affection in public. But not the way Dan was, where he’d make out with you at bars and it was so uncomfortable because, like, your friends were there and his friends were there and strangers were looking at you and the bartender already asked you to knock it off. High-Quality Guy (HQG) will be down to hold your hand though.
4. He’ll comfort you when you’re upset, instead of dismissing you. Ok, but like, what assholes are you dating that don’t do this naturally? Not doing this isn’t even a “low-quality guy” trait — it doesn’t even warrant using the word “quality” in the same sentence. Casey says he feels “uncomfortable” around tears? What the hell does that even mean?
