Girls like my bad boy side, why?

June 13, 2009 9:25pm CST
i know its almost a cliche when people say "good girls like bad boys", but what i have noticed is girls kinda get attracted to my indifferent behaviour instead of the mr nice guys that i am sometimes :) :) *cough* anyways just wanted to know why and what attracts the girls to that kinda character, not only for me but generally speaking. is it the sense of adventure, thrill, ???

I wish I knew. It doesn't make sense sometimes. I've seen women attracted to men that treat them like cr@p at times. It doesn't make sense. I think the ideal guy is somewhere in the middle. A guy that doesn't let you walk all over him, but doesn't treat you like cr@p either. Don't completely do away with the "mr. nice guy" side of yourself. The girls who are always attracted to the "bad boy" side of you just might not be the type of girls you are looking for. Good luck in your "quest for knowledge". lol

it's not actually thrill but bad boys really are interesting more than the nice guys. they are not boring and more fun to be with. it's not just work and studies will be the topic of the talk. i learn new things from them. bad boys also has sense of humor most of the time. a bad boy may not become a good husband but he's surely a good companion.

In a way, it is true. The reason why the good girls usually love the bad boys is because they bring out the animal in them. Problem with the bad boys is that the bad boy is that he can break a girl's heart. He can hurt people very badly in all kinds of ways. Can he be reformed? Well, that is up to him. I was once a good girl who had a thing for bad boys, but I saw their dark side, and I knew that that wasn't what I wanted. If a good girl stays with the bad boy, she will find out in the end that he will only bring her pain and misery and by then it might be too late.

Younger women like drama, and bad boys are full of characteristics that feed the drama-queen craving. That's the only thing I can think of. Best watch that bad boy side tho, these same drama-craving women will try to change you into Mr. Nice Guy. Been there, done that, bought the T-shirt lol

Please be specific. In what way had you been bad and girls liked it? Did you steal kisses and girls responded passionately? Girls also want to know what it feels like to be kissed especially if they believe their boyfriends love them truly.

hi enetworking, there are girls who like adventure or thrill like you said. I would also say that we attract people by what we are. I mean what kind of person we are is what kind of people we are attractde to. Just like the saying tell me who you're friends are and ill tell you who you are. We get along with people that we have in common thats why we stay with their company. Same thing when we are looking for a mate, we look for qualities that we have and what we like.Sometimes we dont even know thats how we are but you will see by how we choose people to be our company. its called denial.

Everybody always wants what they shouldn't or can't have. We all try to accomplish a goal by conquering or rather getting what we can't have or shouldn't have. The harder to get, more thrill of the fight to get it. Some of us have more fight than others, trust me I know!!!

I guess thats because, when you are being a good boy, the girl always wonders, "Why is this guy being so good, there must be some bad intention behind all this...". And when you are a bad boy, "Hey, he's just being a man, at least he ain't hiding anything !!!" Thats what i feel... If this is not the case then ..

It's because it is bad. Simply putting it a girl likes to take risks and knowing that nobody would approve of it just makes it that much better. I admit to having that issue myself. Got me into a 8 yr long relationship that is just not going well. I really can't say I've learned my lesson though. There's just something about bad boys.

I do agree with you that some girls like bad boys. May be because of the thrill being with someone out of the normal. There could be one small thing in him that is endearing. I really don't understand. Perhaps, women with such an experience could better explain why.

well a bad boy is termed maybe because of his actions or behavior.for me it might by the natures way. estrogen getting pulled towards testosterone.a bad boy is generally the more aggressive kinds,some women fall for aggresive men because it shows higher levels of the male hormone,which would bear a female better healty children,you can protect the family and children.apart these men are unpredictable,women love this.gives them lot of thrill to guess what could be his next move or something.

Research says that women are attracted to the so-called bad boys and that the tendancy is carried over from ancient times. Back then, women sought a man who could protect them and their children, as well as provide for them. Some women equate the bad-boy behaviors with strength or courage. Karen

Its hard to answer this... Its kinda like eating the forbidden fruit. No parent want their child with a bad boy/girl. Its a fantasy. I am married now, but what I love about my husband is that he has that good boy and bad boy image. So i'm getting two in one. Lot of people do for the thrill.
