There's a major difference between your typical "bad boy" and the classic "fuckboy." While the bad boy drives a noisy motorbike and keeps you out late, the fuckboy doesn't even bother to pick you up and expects you to get a taxi over to his place at midnight to "hang out." Angsty-mysterious guys can be a pain in the ass and about as deep as a puddle. If the guy you're currently seeing matches any of the signs below then I hate to tell ya, but you've got a fuckboy on your hands.
1. He Says Stuff Like...
"Things are complicated right now/I can't give you what you deserve." Bullshit. Nothing's ever too complicated if you like someone enough.
2. "You Wanna Chill/Hang Out?"
