Girls good girl with bad guy but guy look good.

Why are girls attracted to the jackass, and do not see the one waiting to give her everything when all he is gonna give her a slap in the face, but she wants that perfect looking guy, now dont get me wrong not all girls are like this, but why the good girls, i have seen it many of times, and usually its the girls im going for. I reminds me of Forest Gump,(in a sense, Jenny in the movie did not realize what she had all along, caught up in life) It was a great movie, but anyway i just thought i could fuse that little issue , and please if you would like to dicuss anymore , feel free to post reply.
THANKS

I think it's like the movie Pirates of the Caribbean. I find myself attracted to Jack Sparrow because he's so dangerous and you know you'd go on many adventures. But at the end of the day, I would definitely have to choose Will Turner. He is kind, sweet and more importantly safe. He wouldn't endanger anybody. Might be less exciting, but it would be my choice.

I personally have never been attracted to a "bad boy". I think that seeing how badly he behaves would put me off.

I think girls are attracted to bad boys for the excitement. Plus they think that they can change them or calm them down- instead they'll probably get into some serious trouble for them to realise that's not going to happen.

I think it has to do with Bad Boys being more adventurous or something of that sort. I am attracted to them too. It's hard to really explain.

Good Guys sometimes are into changing girls, and girls don't like that too much.

For me, seeking bad boys was due to my own self-esteem issues. I wasn't overly confident, and I think deep down I thought I wasn't deserving of a good guy. So I viewed the bit of good they had in them and thought it was good enough.

I would often look at the good guys and think they were boring. I guess this was my way of justifying my attraction to the bad boys without holding myself to blame.

But this is just my take on it.

Glass House if you have seen it, great movie, i have an idea why girls tend to go for the bad boy type, (great example you gave) its just i feel girls are tricked, and some dont ralize being with that bad boy figure, mr. Jock, popular, that she in for so much pain, and i have had two potential relationships go down like that, and it just blows my mind. When i say i have seen them go and get hurt......i just hate to see it.

I agree, and some do try and chang for the worst for the girl, but some like me, try and change for the better for both of us in the future. Some girls just dont realize, and most arent ready to accept the change they might or might not need.

i know, but what makes it more of an intriguing question, is that i am both outgoing and serious, not to say bad, but well off to be accepted by some, no but the bad boy type im talking about is the FINE, HANDSOME young man, and the girl, like as if he were a VAMPIRE, puts her under this SPELL, and he forever till some event comes up treats her like dirt, like nobody, but she is so attacted physically to him she dosent realize it, but in some cases her friends do. And there I stand or any other man, watching her make this mistake, we gave her everything, and he gives her a self esteem boost and poularity and dreams come true.

I DONT KNOW, BUT I WISH GIRLS COULD AVOID IT
BUT thanks FOR your REPLY

Oh Gheez. In a way I can't answer no more because this is kinda happening to me. He came off like a really good guy, but now he is treating me like dirt like all the other guys I have dated. So, it was like he put on this make-up to hid his true colors. Get me hooked and says the "L word" and then that is that. It sucks.

Bad boys are addictive

I have a bad boy addiction. Like any other addictive substance, (smoking, drinking, drugs) you know it's self destructive and isn't the best thing for you, but there's a certain rush you get that you crave.

The times I've tried dating 'nice' guys, I got bored almost instantaneously... They are typically not agressive enough, you get caught in the "what do you want to do?" "I don't know, what do you want to do" conversations. Girls want a guy who can take charge, call the shots.

Also, it's hard to appriciate things that are readily available to you. Think of someone who has craploads of money... they typically don't have as much appriciation for the material goods as someone who had to work their ass off for it. A challenge/reward. It is a challenge to get affection and tenderness from a bad boy, so it seems to have much more value. When you know you can call upon a guy at any time, and he'll be at your beck-and-call, there's no challenge, and it's like a novelty item, fun at first, but the appeal wears off real quick.

Stop making yourself so available, and stand up for yourself instead of bending over backwards for girls and you will land yourself a great girl.

Hope this helps, good luck!

Forget that guys, there are ladies out there who realize you can be a gentleman without being a wimp. And many of them who don't realize it now will realize it when they grow up.

First off, being a gentleman and being a total pushover are 2 totally different things. It's about balance. Every single guy I've ever met who's played the "nice guys finish last" sob story are the ones who have no backbone and go out of their way to please their girl, and there's no equality in the relationship. I, for one will not tolerate being treated like crap, but at the same time will not tolerate being treated like a princess either.


If being "grown up" means losing my sense of adventure, free spirit and adopting a routine cinderella story life, please let me stay young and fun forever!

Youll find the right one, he's out there, paitence, friends will comfort you, and we learn from our mistakes in life whatever the situation may be, it makes us more aware,

SOMETIMES WE HAVE TO WALK THE DARK ROAD, WE ARE ON THE PATH FOR THE LIGHT, OUR GOALS AND HOPES LIE AHEAD, WE FALL DOWN WE RISE STRONGER THAN BEFORE KNOWING WE WONT MAKE THAT MISTAKE AGAIN, WE WILL FIND THE LIGHT,WHATER IT MAY BE
DONT GIVE UP

FINDING A BALANCE in a relationship is hard at times, and yes i agree you should not be a push over kind of guy, its not....healthy...for a relationship. I see treating a girl like number one, there is no wrong in that and most girls would dream to find a man to be by your side always, be the shoulder when you need to let out your emotions, be there for you when times are rough, support you, thats better than any luxury, we should come to respect that boy/girl, is that what we desire(when it comes to a relationship, to see the true beauty of love, to feel it, to live it out with that special someone, i would give anything to have a girl there by my side, talk with me, wake up next to her or lay there with her, and think, while she stares off, im glad to be with this girl, who cares about me, is there for me, ......i dont know i could go on & on, dont you want that, alot of girls would, as long as youre happy with whatever the cause, i guess thats all that really matters

TAKE TIME OUT THINK TO YOURSELF, ABOUT HOW YOU REALLY FEEL
