A lot of my lady friends are really attracted to bad boys for some reason. I'm just curious what makes them so attractive? Is it just the physical aspect of standing out? Overall demeanour that he'll do whatever he wants when he wants etc.?

I'm all ears lol

They say its basically 2 things:
1. They are going to be a fun and wild time
2. The challenge of shaping them into what they want

The problem with the nice guy isn't really that he is nice its the fact that he comes across as a sick little puppy looking for love and there really is no challenge. Girls aren't that much different than guys...both want a little bit of a challenge. Keeps it exciting I think. I was a typical "nice" guy and I finally figured out I can still be nice just don't give anything to what she wants or don't act like you're just falling all over yourself to serve her. Be respectful and nice just not ready to say "I do" on the first date.

Oh yeah, my g/f thought I was a nice guy/too nice in the beginning but now she jokingly says she wishes I was nice like I use to be...becareful what you wish for I guess.

Also some women crave drama.

I date a lot (I do mean a lot).
Bad boys are not worth it.
More pain, emotional and other.
(WW remembers a really bad night in a hoel room that left bruises, and not the fun kind)
They are far too much into treating everyone badly.
My standards for dating (a guy anyway, my same sex standards are different)
have to do with things like manners, hygiene, no drugs, and holding a conversation that isn't about money, cars, and other women.
This is NOT about dating guys with money. Poor guys are very creative in having fun, and I don't need a guy to pay my way.
I have also learned that nice guys can really surprise you.
I have had some really wild fun rides from guys who were very low key on the outside, and totally insane in bed. (wheeee!)

Dating other women, I mostly try to avoid the dramatics.
I have enough crap in my own life I don't need other people's drama in my life.

I think it's sex and hormones. I'd love a bad boy (conceptually, of course) for a one night stand, as long sa he left promptly in the morning.

The bad boy thing... it's the confidence. I like a man to be confident in himself. The trouble is, the "nice guys" seem to let women walk all over them. And then the women don't respect them. You've to strike a middle of the road. Be confident in yourself.. but respect yourself and your women. And you'll be beating them off with a stick.

Now of course.. this is normal women and not the drama queens.... them..I don't get...

Myself..I have a "wounded brooding man" thing. I always seem to fall for that type. I married one in fact. I guess it was a what can do to fix him thing... Luckily mine turned out okay. And he got fixed ( ??lol??) and I didn't want to move on. But most of the time I think it's the other way.

My childhood, teenage years and, in fact early twenties were dogged by my mother's love for a 'bad boy'.....indirectly, he made life hell for me (and the rest of my family), and I have NEVER been attracted to men like that.

The bottom line, I'm afraid, is that women who are attracted to 'bad boys' are in for a world of pain, and I can't help but feel there's an element of masochism in women who are attracted to men like that.
