Generally they want adventure, they want fun.. but then they want a good man who will be a help and not a hindrance... when it comes time for security, paying bills, helping kids with homework, helping in the house, meeting their boss at an important work function.
Predictable and reliable are not what they want every... single... day... Fun and adventure and spontaneity are a huge turn on. If it's just a hookup, bad boy is fine... because if that's all he's got then they don't need the drama after a night of wild fun. If it's relationship time predictable and reliable are needed. But if a guy is TOO nice... he gets boring...
Knowing when to be the bad boy and knowing when to be the good man is an art.
Wasn't until my third marriage that I figured that out. I'm still not a master at doing both but I'm really good.10 Reply

+1 yThis question appears on here all the time. Girls don't want "bad" boys. Sure, there are the dumb girls who go for the abusers just like dumb guys who go for the slutty bimbos.
But most women want MEN. Men who are confident, who can command a conversation, know what they want and where they're going. The "bad" boy doesn't imply "jerk". He just comes across that way because he carries himself so much better than the "nice" guy that all the nice guy can do is come up with some lame ass "bad" guy description to make himself feel superior because he has nothing else to offer.
The so called nice guys are spineless pushovers who kindly think of themselves as being nice and therefore entitled to a woman's affection. Um, no. Women don't want boys who fold.
Take it from a former so-called "nice" guy.10 Reply
+1 yI think there's a certain thrill to the stereotypical bad boy, but i certainly do not like them. Real life just doesn't work the way movies seem to want it to. I want a man who can support both of us, and at the same time is able to feel supported. Equality is everything to me and bad boys seem to mostly want to be the hero type. Im not looking for a hero, just someone to love when things get rough.

I think most women find "Bad Boys" more intriguing, exciting and interesting. Bad Guys also come off as more honest about their intentions... but its not until later that they realize they made a bad choice.
Good guys are just harder to spot, because they come off as more mundane... and for some reason even though they all say they want genuine, honest and sincere guys they can't seem to recognize it when they do find the real deal. Its the inherent mistrust, because every guy pretends to be honest, genuine and sincere. So how do you tell the real ones from the pretenders?
But exciting and adventurous "bad boys" seem more fun on the surface.00 Reply
+1 ybad guys are bad because they tend to break your heart, even though good guys do that too, but like at least they're like more respectful and somethin
i like good guys, and if they're smart and humourous they are cute af20 Reply
+1 yIt's their confidence. Women with morals will typically see past that and will stay away due to their lifestyle not being the best. If you want a good woman, have confidence and be nice. Bad boys aren't usually for the best women. Most "bad boys" you see with good families are just dressing and acting like a "bad boy" but are really very nice people. So being a genuine bad boy might get you a hook up or smth stupid like that. But for long term relationships the main thing to take is confidence.

+1 y"Bad boy" is just a toxic asshole trying to compensate. But, assholes come across as super confident which many women find attactive, and bad boys do dangerous stuff, giving off a sense of being dangerous which is an adrenaline rush for some... in the end great for a romance novel but IRL they are not worth it.

Anonymous(18-24)+1 yUnfortunately (regardless of nationality and with exceptions) all women love bad men. They see good men as losers. But later, when the bad men they love start hurting them, they go in search of the good men. It's kind of like a weird vicious circle, whatever. Mostly because bad men are richer, more flamboyant, and tougher than good men, sadomasochism attracts women, and these women often make their sad endings with their own hands.

+1 yWell they don’t like nice guys I can tell ya that right now. They have quite a hatred for the nice guys

They hate nice guys? What makes you say that?
- +1 y
Women claim they want to be with a “nice guy”, yet they avoid them like the plague. Why? Because they claim that “nice guys” are insecure and inauthentic.
They claim that nice guys give off the wrong signals. They claim that they can smell bs from a nice guy from a mile away. They claim that nice guys don’t hear them. Most women want a guy they can change and work on.
Am I right, ladies? - +1 y
So they want a genuine nice guy, not one that is pretending. And one whose only personality trai isn't just being nice. He needs to have other qualities...
This is not asking for a lot. He needs to be genuinely nice and have other qualities besides being nice. Those are normal standards.
I don't know one nice guy who actually has social skills that is single. - +1 y
@This_Is_My_Opinion8, Apparently there’s a very very very fine line between a genuine nice guy and a “nice guy.” And girls can’t differentiate between the two so they consider all nice guys as bad and ignore them.
- +1 y
I don't think they do that. The idea that they don't like nice guys is a myth.
- +1 y
@This_Is_My_Opinion8, The fact that you don’t think they do is merely your own opinion and doesn’t make it truth. Maybe not all women are like that but a very large majority are otherwise it wouldn’t be a thing.

@This_Is_My_Opinion8, I used to be insanely nice to women. After my ex and I broke up. Yet I’d end up ignored or ghosted or blocked or unfriended. This just kept happening until the day I was falsely accused of stalking and I then gave up entirely on trying. Pretty sure the reason why was because I was considered the “nice guy” at the time. Now I’m just an incel

It is my own opinion. For sure. Maybe I have lucky with the ones I met who knows?

I hate that incel word. I am sorry that has happened to you, really, but you are isolating yourself out of fear.
It's your call, but I would highly encourage you to not give up on something you clearly would like. - +1 y
@This_Is_My_Opinion8, I’m not a fan of the word either. I prefer volcel which implies voluntarily celibate. But the words volcel and incel are unfortunate interchangeable now so I guess celibate is the better term? There are too many reasons why I could care less to have a relationship. Besides it’s been long enough to the point where I’m far too content being single and the idea of having a partner would just make me unhappy. I’d feel suffocated if nothing else

Anonymous(18-24)+1 yI don’t know. I personally always found myself dating “bad boys” for some reason… but i know a lot of people like “bad boys” because they’re more fun, and they find “good boys” boring.
20 ReplyWe as women love stereotypical bad boys because they are confident take action and are successful , but on the other hand if that "bad boy" is rude harsh and treats women as an object then he's not attractive at all.
00 ReplyRiding a motorcycle and wearing leather jackets doesn’t make you a bad boy

That’s the part I like. The motorcycle and the leather jacket.
The question should be "do girls like fun guys or boring guys?" It's not about good or bad.
