Is it just me or am i the only one attracted to arrogant badboys and why do you think that is?

Answer 1

No it's very common amongst girls and women. Bad boys are usually lots of fun, and unlike good boys, have the confidence to go after you, which is ultra-flattering. Also, not all bad boys treat women badly, as that article suggested - some of them can also be tender, gentle, considerate and passionate. It's the old "he's a different person when he's with me" syndrome.

I don't know if there's a set answer as to why women are attracted to bad boys. I'm not completely convinced by the "low self-esteem" theory, because I've always rejected the bad boys, not because I have high self-esteem but simply out of fear - in other words, I didn't trust myself to handle the outcome.

Answer 2

It's definitely not just you. Just ask any "nice guy" and they'll be happy to tell you how frustrating it is to do what you were taught - be nice to others, esp those you like - and watch as those same girls run off time and again w/ the "bad boys".

For most girls, this is a phase they go thru, and grow out of, after much painful experience, by their mid-20s. As with most sexual matters, this attraction is based on genetic impulses about which you're not likely to be cognizant of - Google "the biological imperative" for a thorough explanation.

If you find yourself drawn to these types into and beyond your mid-20s, you may want to seek some help, especially if you know of any abuse or trauma in your formative years. Those that suffered such psychological/emotional stresses may be wired to seek out destructive relations, and should they find themselves in a healthy relationship w/ a caring individual, they will find a way to sabotage that relationship. This pattern is unlikely to go away on its own unless/until the underlying cause is dealt with. Abuse and/or trauma sort of raises the bar for excitment/stimulation, so many in this group are drawn not just to destructive ppl, but also to high-risk activities like extreme sports, gambling, etc.

Answer 3

we think they are exciting and can be tamed. be cafeful because some bad boys are called that because they are. don't get involved with one if you don't think you'll be able to handle the ride. sometimes we get more than we ask for when we love the bad boys. i'm not saying all bad boys aren't datable or worth loving, but you gotta your eyes open.

Answer 4

Hahaha, it's definitely not you. I got for cocky football playing, wrestler guys. I've never dated any guys but football players. I think we all have our preferences and tend to pick them out of the crowd first.

Answer 5

You either like the thrill or you think you can change him, which in turn would give you some kind of power or control over him.
