Is it wrong that I had to look up the word first to make sure I knew what it was? Just not a term we use in the area I live at all.
Anyway I know a few guys like that and I wouldn't give them the time of day. A lot of girls seems attracted to the bad boy persona, but never understood that since you hear a lot of the times that bad boy treats girl like crap. I have a friend who boyfriend has cheated on her a few different times and yet....still together.
Well, what i have heard and think is to some degree true is that girls like boys with confidence, and usually these 'bad boy personas' and douchebag attitudes have great confidence about them selves. They put a really good show for girls on first dates, when they meet them in a club or what ever, but once it becomes this girlfriend/boyfriend relationship and becomes more series i guess the true nature of these bad boys comes out. Why girls decide to stick with them is a mystery to me.
Yeah pretty much and it's funny, they don't really have true self confidence. They are just good at pretending like they do. Noticed that after dating a few because I have pretty good self confidence myself and I know a fake when I see one lol.
Usually stick with them for a number of reasons; they don't feel like they can get another man (was hard enough for them to get the one they got), low self esteem, they feel invested in the relationship, they do good things that in their rationale outweigh the bad, saw this kind of thing in their own family life or don't know what is considered a good relationship, they're too comfy or stubborn to change, etc, etc. Also, this shit doesn't happen right away, you start to see an assholes true colors over time slowly and it's a subtle change.
