When women go after the broken men. The man only thinks that you are allowing him to misbehave. He isn't going to change because you are not going anywhere. I just think that women need to get out of a fantasy world and accept things they way it is. Instead of trying to fix what is already broken. When they show you who they are believe them. It took me a long time to learn it. But ask the people who love you and they will tell you that you are not doing right.
It’s just a nurturing nature of a woman. We never want anybody to be hurting or suffering. And if we can help why not
The same reason some mean are attracted to broken women, the “angel” complex. They think they’re going to swoop in and show them goodness and save them. It can happen because sometimes some people were never given a chance but 9/10 they repeatedly and willingly choose their destructive behaviors continuously despite their partners attempts at “showing them” or “saving” them
I don’t there was a broken guy with too much emotional damage and i was the only one who gave him care and he was also suicidal it was a mess he messed with my mentality too. I was not fit to help he obviously needed mental help with a professional he stressed me i always felt like i was doing smth wrong. It was a disaster i would never wanna be stuck in a mess like that ever again.
It is by no means a female only trait.
Women are just more self centric and self important so they verbalise this.
Think of the white Knight complex - it is to rescue the woman-child, the new problem figure, the drunken avoidant personality that used to be the domain of men that to be modern most women practice (the determination to be firmly independent, paired with the failure, followed by alcohol, drugs, sex, any fix just to ease the pain of self-perceived inadequacy)
I completely know what she's doing. She sees potential in you and she's willing to go through it with you and help you to becoming a better you. She's willing to help you fix yourself.
Women see men that are broken, but have potential and will be willing to help you fix yourself and help you become better. I definitely do this
Do you guys think that it is strategic or do you think that it is an attraction without realizing?
I think it's an attraction without realizing. Like I know I tend to go after guys that are broken because I see potential in them and try to help build them up. I don't realize it sometimes
I was neglected and suffered some abuse as a child.
I have a girlfreind now but looking back there was a lot of girls who liked me some told me.
But I wasn't capable of forming an actual relationship as any form of affection was just so foreign. I'm still working on this.
I was always acting up and refused to listen to teachers swimming instructors ext I'm better now but my point is the badboy affect may also be present.
It's because some girls just love drama, and/or have shitty taste in men.
They try and justify their inadequacies by saying they are "motherly" or "an empath" but really it's just a personality flaw they have.
I call it broken bird syndrome. They think they can fix them. I was in a toxic relationship, and it made me realize I need more therapy than I thought.
I tend to draw in troubled people myself, I'm pretty nice to most people and a good listener.
But a lot of damaged people are pretty interesting and if they are not too broken then they can make for loyal friends.
It's a effort that will be made in vain.
You can't fix another person, go ahead and try, we'll see how far you'll get.
Same reason why girls are attracted to fuckbois. They want to be the special girl for who a guy is willing to change
Well hmmm
I have depression and ptsd but Im not getting amy girlfriends, boyfriends or partners.
Wish I could relate 1😂
My boyfriend makes too many sexual references too and that’s why I ended things. And he is self admittedly “broken” too. I think what drew me to him was the fact that I thought my “loving” is want was missing from his life and I was the one to finally “fix” it and reap the rewards. Now I get that when trying to fix anyone it’s because were lacking some type of “nurturing” within ourselves, so now I won’t date anyone with issues and I’ll be selfish.
We’re**
Oh and it’s not just broken men I like to fix, but EVERYONE who displays signs of it. For example, my sisters were always “odd” (as you said in your post). One was so shy and lacked self esteem. The other one was a “soft” person who felt that being soft was some sort of disadvantage and made her one big ass victim. I was born intrinsically confident and sure of myself. Being with sisters who lacked confidence and self esteem, it was hard to honour my own path in life and live up to my high expectations, but something inside me felt that I needed to “fix” them FIRST before I could “honour myself”. How fast forward a few years and they’re doing fine, but at the cost of my own mental stability. It seems I am not 100% of what I was and that I let their “issues” affect me since I was dealing with it everyday. If I could go back to that moment where I made the decision to “fix” them, I would abandon them and choose me me me!!

Some typos
That's not unique to women- I once thought I could fix a recent ex. My experience with her disabused me of that notion. You can't fix crazy.
It’s the typical nurturing nature that the woman comes with. It gives them great joy to build them back up.
I only fix my clothes, hair, makeup and maybe my bike.
Good attitude!!
The mother/nurturer/healer instinct
Women in general have a tendency to be nurturers as part of their maternal instinct.
Women think that they can make him chance and help him get better, but in reality it is that person that has to help fix themselves and no one else it is up to that person if the wanna fix themselves and become a better person.
