What to Look for in a Guy online Besides He Likes Ladyboys

Just because a guy says he’s into ladyboys doesn’t mean he’s boyfriend material. In fact, sometimes that’s the only thing he brings to the table—and you deserve way more than that. Whether you’re new to online dating or tired of running into guys who only see you through one lens, it’s time to raise the bar.

Here are real signs a man’s actually worth your time—and not just in your DMs to chase a fantasy.

He treats you like a woman, not a secret

If he’s proud to talk to you, message you in public groups, or mention you to friends, that’s a green flag. You’re not something to be hidden or kept private “just in case.” You deserve to be seen, respected, and loved out loud.

A man who’s truly into you won’t make excuses about not video calling, not meeting in public, or keeping the relationship hush-hush. If someone’s making you feel like a dirty little secret, they’re not ready for a real connection.

He uses respectful words—no slurs, no jokes

Respect shows up in how someone speaks. If a guy still uses outdated or offensive words like shemale or makes jokes about ladyboys, he’s not respecting your identity. Even if he claims he’s “just joking,” it’s not funny if it makes you feel small.

A decent man listens when corrected and learns to speak with kindness. You shouldn’t have to explain why something is offensive—he should care enough to educate himself and speak to you like a real, respectful adult.

He talks to you like a person, not a fantasy

A lot of guys online treat ladyboys like walking kinks, not real people. If the first thing he wants to know is what’s under your clothes, swipe away. You are more than his curiosity or some adult movie idea in his head.

Someone serious will be interested in your thoughts, your humor, your goals—not just your body. When a man talks to you like a human with a story, that’s when real connection can begin.

He doesn’t just say “I’m into ladyboys”—he shows real interest in you

Saying he “likes ladyboys” is not enough. That’s not a personality trait. What really matters is how he shows his interest—through attention, effort, and consistency in getting to know you.

Does he ask about your day? Does he make time for you, not just late-night chats? Real interest shows in the little things he remembers and the way he makes you feel safe and seen.

He asks about your life, not just your looks

If he’s only complimenting your body or your photos, he’s missing out on the most important part—your actual life. A good man will be curious about your work, dreams, family, and the things that make you you.

When someone truly likes you, they want the full picture. Not just what you look like on the outside, but what your world is like on the inside. And when he asks, it means he’s not just here for a pretty face—he’s here for a real connection.

He’s consistent with effort—not just online when bored

A real guy shows up even when it’s not convenient. He doesn’t just message you when he’s lonely at night or bored during work breaks. He checks in, remembers things you said, and keeps the vibe alive—not just when he feels like it.

When someone is consistent, it means they’re taking you seriously. If his attention disappears as fast as it comes, that’s a clue he’s not ready. You deserve someone who shows up every day, not just when he wants something.

He doesn’t rush things—he respects your pace

If he’s pushing for a video call too fast or asking to meet before you’re ready, pause. A guy who’s in it for real will wait. He won’t make you feel guilty or pressured just because he’s ready for the next step.

Respecting your pace shows he values your comfort over his desires. The right one will move with you, not ahead of you. It’s not just patience—it’s proof that your feelings matter to him.

He doesn’t hide you or act ashamed

You don’t have to be splashed across his socials, but he shouldn’t be sneaky either. If he won’t even mention you to a friend or dodges questions about you, that’s a red flag.

A man who respects you will be proud to know you. Whether it’s chatting during the day or saying your name in public, he’ll make you feel visible—not hidden behind excuses.

He’s emotionally mature—not scared of deeper convos

If the moment you bring up something personal, he disappears or changes the topic, he’s not ready. Real connection needs real talks—not just flirty surface stuff.

Emotional maturity means he listens when things get serious. It means he’s not afraid of your story, your journey, or your needs. He’s not just there for the good times, but ready to be a grown-up about the tough stuff too.

He listens, learns, and makes you feel seen

You can tell when someone’s really listening—not just waiting for their turn to talk. A good man hears what you say, asks thoughtful questions, and adjusts when needed.

Maybe he didn’t understand everything about ladyboys at first—but if he listens and grows, that’s love in action. You should feel seen, not explained. When he makes you feel understood without you having to beg for it, that’s a keeper.

You deserve more than a guy who just says the right things—you deserve someone who shows up with real respect, effort, and heart. Whether you’re just starting your journey or tired of the same old chats, it’s time to raise your standards and find someone who meets them.
