Why would a guy choose a really mean girl over a sweet girl? Do guys just prefer mean women?

So my best friend who is one of the sweetest people I know with the biggest heart AND she’s a fashion model, her boyfriend just cheated on her and then left her for her “best friend” who bullied her for years under the guise of friendship. The “ex best friend” is one of the meanest girls I’ve met (I’ve met her twice), she literally called me ugly and said I look like a rat to my face when I met her and she once made me cry, and she has a rep for being a bully. she’s seriously bad vibes to everyone especially other girls.

But the guy, for some reason, is treating this “ex-bestie” like a queen and saying she’s the love of his life and everything, when he treated my friend really badly, he didn’t even care that he cheated. She is heartbroken, and doesn’t understand the betrayal from both sides. Neither do I.

Do men prefer mean women to nice women or something? I just don’t get it because my friend is miles better than this girl in every way (and I know I’m biased but this is just the truth, and I’m not just talking about looks here.) I am heartbroken for her. So is it true?
