I had two ex boyfriends both known of a bad guy image in school. I easily got attracted to bad guy image and now i'm helplessly falling again for another one. My parents were disappointed in me because of my choice of men.But i cannot help myself get attracted to those who are acting brave and strong.Something must have been wrong in my senses.But i terribly think they were handsome and cute.I just love the way they courted me with a little unexpected-shaken style that most men in my so called decent life wont dare to do.
Is there something wrong about my choice of men?

It's just an image! There's nothing wrong with falling for those with a bad guy image. Most girls who get attracted to these kind of men are actually girls who feel like they needed to be protected. These guys have that image, that they could protect you and yet can treat you gently. They may look tough, but they're actually nice and knows how to treat women well.
I'm not surprise why you are attracted to those men. It would be a different story if they're really bad and not just an image.

Sometimes our parents are just to rash to judge a person by it's physical appearance because they care too much for us and they worry a lot. In time, they will see that those people are actually better than those clean type look. You just have to prove to your parents to trust you in your choices.
Good luck!

I think you are not alone with that idea!
But seriously, I think it is wanting to have a very manly image for a boyfriend. The manlier he looks, the more attractive it is for you. You have this image on your head that this kind of person is able to save you in times of distress (Knight in Shining Armor), the rugged looks......

Definitely! I guess from all the relationships I had all of them have been on that rugged side. I do not want to have a boyfriend who seems to be so soft spoken.
I want a MAN!

i have to speak for parents because i am one. it is natural for parents to be anxious for their children. believe me, it is always for the child's welfare that parents react in manners that children do not understand or would not try to even understand.
i am just curious about the phrase 'being known as a guy with bad image'. for me, it is different from only having that impression exuded like 'that guy looks like a bad guy' than a guy who does bad things that is why he's known to have a bad image. that's two different things.
i am not easy to judge, as a parent. but i will react if a guy who's a boyfriend of my daughter will physically or emotionally hurt her. i pray that i will not witness such a thing because i will do everything for them to be apart from each other. i would not wish ever to have a daughter who'll be a punching bag by her bf.

I believe so, that parents always want what is best for their children. As a daughter all i have to do is prove them that i am responsible for my decisions and choices. Love can surpass the test of time. I should have to consider and listen to my parents opinion.

nothing is wrong^^ me also i used to like guys that have bad boy style. i dont know but thats really attractive. cause they seem cold in the outside but inside they are really sweet. thats what i feel. you dont choose who you like so dont worry. as long as they are good to you their looks dont matter. besides that style you like is cool^^ many girls like guys like that so dont think you are different^^ wish you the best for your love life

That's a good attitude you have.If you want to make a boyfriend why there be not some brave features or traits in him. That is really a good criteria to get stronger people being associated or linked winked with you. And if that buddy has some extra power punching abilities that is really a good thing. Many girls like you want a tall, strong and powerful bf.
Image is not much of concern as some are framed up some are bogus and only few are true. Everybody has to make some choices in his/ her life and if you need to make choice you just make it and by half analyzing or just by over hearing people make up images for other in their minds and share it with others. Do what you think is right.

I don't think it's just about your choice but really about how you feel about yourself. Some girls tend to go for mean guys who would treat them badly because they feel they don't deserve to be treated any better. Or another factor could be too much fantasizing about characters we see on movies and TV shows where mean guy + nice girl is almost always the perfect formula. I hope someday you will find someone who's good and gentle and will show you how you should really be loved and respected because every girl deserves no less. :)

I get your point and i think you are right. I love reading pocket books and love the characters that i thought pampered women. And it was always the bad guy image who can get my attention. I guess my preference of man influenced by my passion of reading pocket books.

there is nothing wrong with you i guess. I used to be like you and the last when i was attracted to a boy who is my husband now was very bad as everyone told me and when he met me he said he wanted to change. today he is totally changed man and I believe that we must help those who are in need. I had promised myself to change this man and i and successful today because he is changed. Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day ahead.
