Are girls generally attracted to broken guys?

[Anonymous]

like the guy who is somewhere between an asshole and someone who needs help, like a guy who genuinely needs your help to get some emotional stability in his life and is honest about it but is he also is not overly needy, he goes his own way sometimes and will return emotional stability on return

Insecure women are. Ones who often have an avoidant style of attachment due to early childhood needs not met. They can't help but chase emotionally unavailable men, and get into unhealthy relationship patterns where she can't quite ever "change him." They identify with damaged men, and are attracted because it gives them opportunity to play out and resolve their wounds by fixing someone who feels familiar to them (father issues), while forgetting about themselves in the process. Thing is, you have to be more than damaged still. Often it's attractive, silent, strong types who are damaged that women can't help but wanna help because they exude the ultimate masculine energy which draws feminine energy (nurture, communicative, open)... if you're just a damaged a-hole with no traits that attract then you're out of luck.

The women are more attracted to the "not giving a fuck" attitude (that symbolizes strength)... which is a side effect of a man being broken.

No, absolutely not. Despite what we think when we're 18-23 that a man will love us so much we can "fix" him, no emotionally stable woman over that age wants to be playing handyman to a mans shortcomings.
We fix ourselves, with the help and support of those around us. An emotionally unstable asshole sounds like the most unappealing prospect

Ugh, no. I do not have the patience for that utter bullshit.

Listen. I am not willing to be someone's therapist. Pay a professional for that.

I have no desire to do that much emotional labour for what is likely to be very little reward.

I would love to help someone if I can. But not if the person has no ability himself or is so needy.
