"Bad boys" only get worse or become losers.
Don't confuse confidence and arrogance. "Bad" boys are narcissistic and don't follow rules because they don't care about others, including you.
Confident ones, advocate and stand up for themselves, but they protect the weak and never punch down.
I've never really known any bad boys. I've always live my life in books. I read one about a guy who was afraid to settle down, so he was never 'dating' anybody. But he did end up falling for this girl, who, unlike every other girl, didn't want to sleep with him.
To make a long story short, they got married and had three kids. Or two? I forgot, it's been a while. It's actually a nice read.
I think they tend to remain bad boys; the difference is that eventually, the women they've dated previously often settle down with a nice guy, with whom they can have a long term relationship, but they still enjoy dating the bad boys once in a while for excitement.
the "bad boys" are pieces of trash. They will treat women like pieces of trash. They will be that way until they die. As they age, they just find different ways to treat women like garbage. Sadly, it seems most women want to be treated like shit or they don't want to stay with you.
I don’t see many of them changing. In my male dominated field the bad boys seem to remain bad boys, leaving a trail of baby mommas, ugly breakups, and infidelity in their wake. The good guys seem to be more faithful and stable for their women but not a lot of women swoon after them. I think being a good guy with some of the life skills, confidence, and directness of a self confident man is about as close to the ideal man a woman can land.
That’s the fantasy they sell in the romance novels: A man who not only treats you different from how he treats everyone else but a man who’s willing to change a lot of who he is just to be deemed worthy of your love.
Unfortunately life is rarely so picture perfect and those with rap sheets are probably going to go back to prison at some point because of how hard it is to get a good job with a conviction on your record. It’s a vicious cycle, not one many can withstand.
What exactly is a “bad boy”? From many of the threads on this site, it seems like it’s a term thrown around by jealous incels over any guy who seems to be “getting some”.
Conversely, if a woman is attracted to and dating someone who doesn’t treat her right, that tells me SHE has low self esteem. She knows she deserves better but chooses to stay with a guy, using the sorry excuse that maybe he will change.
If a "bad boy" settles down and gives that commitment to the woman, then she will become disinterested in him. It is thus in a bad boy's interest to always give low priority to the woman. So either chase after the "bad boy" or settle for the "nice guy."
Bad boys don't mistreat women. They only take what women freely give and willingly offer. They don't promise the women anything. They just trade a little round for a little flat.
Whoever decides which questions get "Featured" needs sitting down... and kicking repeatedly in the face until they stop favouring idiotic dross.
... Wait, it is probably an algorithm.
Well whatever. I'd be up for kicking an algorithm repeatedly, or the server it is run on, though I doubt it would change its ways.
Anyway... not answering the question as it is just a cliché.
Lotta guys put this act on because women LOVE bad men.
I don't understand it really, I can't imagine treating a woman like shit and her eating it up. I think there's a difference between not being a simp and being a good man. Most dudes are simps
Oh i won't put up with being treated like shit. And my days of thinking I can change a man into a better man are done. The question is more, if a man seems like a good decent man but confesses to having been a bad boy in his past do you judge him now or on his past? Because obviously now behaviour could be best behaviour early on and it will change. But maybe he has changed and to not give him a chance might mean missing out on something good?
people change, if a woman told me she used to be a hoe it'd be a no for me. Because I never did the man hoe fuck boy thing, id feel weird getting with a former hoe, but that's just me.
Most people aren't me, I think male or female all that promiscuous sex will yeet your ability to pair bond, really depends on the person
Why are you trying to find a reason to date a bad boy? If you are ready to be taken advantage of and being use. For sex, go for it. Being evil is easy mode in life, being good takes a ton of work. People hate change. So they usually stay the the same. I would not risk it.
I know. You are right. I just seem to attract or be attracted to bad boy types!
For me personally , I dont care how hot they are, or how much they make. If your personality is to be bad, no thank you. We need to surround ourselves with loyal and respectful people
But if they act loyal and respectful now but was not 10 or 20 years ago... do u still judge them on those past actions? As someone who will never change as some people on here think?
Could be all a act. A smoke screen. Very slim chance of changing. Evil people are lazy minded. Because being bad is easy mode. I mean it's your life , if you want to take that huge risk, go for it. Just he prepared to get hurt. But do realize their are plenty of good men out there.
I know. I'm being cautious. My feelings are not invested. And hence the question. Cos I don't think it's worth the risk but wanted other people's opinions.
I myself would rather be single , than jumping to a high risk relationship. I hope you find the information you are looking for, and make the right decision for yourself.
Thank you. I value your opinion. Also, been single 8 years so it's hard to want to continue being single. But i got burned in last bad boy relationship so I'm wary.
I get you. I've been single way longer. Actually I never really had a long relationship. Ever since, I've been single. And I've always been working on improving myself. And worry about relationships if it ever comes into play, later.
It depends. Do they repent and give their life to Jesus? Many times what happens to them is they marry sone low life woman, who ends up tearing him down in the end.
I’ve seen it a million times. Low lives marry a low life and make one another absolutely miserable.
My partner describes me as a 'bad boy' but HER bad boy. I'm fine with that, and I suppose where I use to be a bit reckless regarding anything or anyone, I'm never reckless regarding my relationship with her!
That's beautiful! Thank you.
Depends, psychopaths and sociopaths are inherently bad, though I suspect even they don't act as wild when they get older. Youth fades sooner or later for most bad boys like it does for most bad girls. I would avoid dating men who have been to prison though, unless he had been out for a while and not reoffended.
Yes. Bad boys do what they like without question and seek validation from no one but doesn't mean to say they won't commit to the right woman who matches them and is on their wave length. Bad boys seek women who can challenge them in every aspect.
More than likely they will treat you like shit. They might be nice to you for a while, but once you are hooked, they will treat you like shit.
The ones I knew because nobody likes a jerk. They either end up in prison or jail. How would you like your child to only know the person in a cage behind a window? They also become drunks or drug addicts which just makes them more of a jerk and unemployable.
I’m dating an ex f boy so I’ll say it depends some never grow up and some do like my boyfriend it’s one of the most caring people I met and he always meets my needs ♥️
I've dated a bad boy once, I thought i could change Him and I almost got into trouble with the law because of it. just don't bother.
