Surprise there has been research into why women date assholes.


Now, research conducted at the University of Texas at San Antonio and published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology suggests that during ovulation hormones affect judgment of parenting potential.

You are too young to be particularly concerned about this; and to be honest, you don't need a woman to not feel lonely. Sometimes you might find that you don't have someone to talk to about stuff; but simply finding a girl is not going to change this (unless it is the right one). I have had very few relationships with women and am now 23; although I don't attribute this to my personality or my looks (I ain't gorgeous or anything; but I am hardly fugly either) but rather the circumstances and the sort of places I have worked at, and tend to socialize at. Wait until you are in your 30s or so before mourning your lack of women.

One thing to remember; many "girls" will say that they like badass. They dig the excitement, and in general like to go after the alpha. But women don't actually like violence. Never make the mistake of being violent in front of a woman. Try and talk your way out of open conflict first, and then if you still really must get a bit violent, ask the lady to go ahead without you. Women will not look at you favorably if they see you ruthlessly breaking someone's arm; trust me on this one. Don't mistake girls liking confidence, with women liking violence.

9 pages and no Nice Guys finish last song? :O




On a serious note I actually replied to something like this on Yahoo answers.

Question: Why do some boys think all girls like bad boys? ?

A: "It's a dumb stereotype us more shy, don't know what to do guys think girls go for. Generally since they don't know how to actually talk to a girl properly or are just not forward with them they tend to think the girls only like the "bad guys" when the only reason is because the "bad guy" actually has the balls to confront the girl and actually knows what to do and say instead of doing the things this Mark guy(The "shy guy") is doing.."

Main point being, you can listen to them and still be a nice guy but you also got to be aggressive when it comes to striving for a girl you like. Your nice side is a key factor that could actually win you over girls but you also got to be more pro-active and up front with them like those so-called "assholes" are doing.

I think there's a fine line between assholes, jerks and class clowns.

A jerk imo would call his girlfriend fat, because he's naive. The asshole isn't, he'd tell her she's sexy, but what he would do is flirt with another while his gf is just in the next room. While the jerk couldn't possible be smart enough to get away with it, 'cause he's to full of himself.

I'd like to think that a true asshole is of a higher breed. He has more class. He'd date 3 girls at a time, till he finally commits to one. Knows what to say to get away and have a night out with the guys, without getting home drunk and completely pissing off his girl.

...and about class clowns, they have tons of confidence, but like someone said earlier in the thread, they just want attention. Complete buffoons.

Does it really matter what they think of you? And even if they think something bad or whatever, big deal? You'll never get everyone to like you no matter who you are.

Any guy that whines about not getting a girl because he's "such a nice guy" is annoying.
Do you think that you've earned some kind of affectionate reward for the kindness that you make an effort to put into some relationship? Because you sent her a smile or lent her an ear sometime? You haven't. You, OP, and all the other Nice Guys out there should realize that it's not all about you, nor is it all about dating a badass. If you're in the friendzone, it's probably because you put yourself there. The one's who aren't in the friendzone are the guys who have some confidence, who don't just spill out compliments, but someone they can actually have a normal conversation with or someone that'll even flirt with them for a while to at least make her wonder if there's some interest there.

And speaking of confidence, why don't you just muster up some courage and go ahead and confess to her? That way at least you're gonna get noticed.. and being noticed can go a long way.

And btw, badass =/= asshole. When a girl says she wants a badass, she doesn't mean she wants a guy who's going to treat her like shit or there's some really weird stuff going on with her that you wouldn't want to get involved with anyway.

Don't use the excuse of "nice guy" just because you lack assertiveness and social skills. "Nice guys" still get girlfriends, and "assholes" still "finish last". Sometimes people just don't like you because of who you are. Either be willing to change to achieve what you want, or don't; but if you don't, don't complain about not getting what you want.

I feel ya buddy I'm in almost the same position myself. The only thing you can really do is to keep on going. All of my pals have gfs and it gets kinda tough being the only one in a room who isn't having their own little conversation with their gf. Kinda agree with some of the others though i dont think girls actually like assholes over genuinely nice people its just they are a bit more confidant. I wont speak for you but I'm pretty bad at social stuff.

If that's your reason for dating, then just stop now. Nearly everyone I've seen who dates because of this reason ends up in some shitty relationship that they don't want to leave because they'll be alone again and they try too hard to make the relationship work.

Plus, think about how a girl would feel if she heard that. "I'm dating you because I don't want to be lonely." There are plenty of other things you to stop being lonely besides dating.

This quote has been bothering me for a while. I'm in my late teens and I still didn't get a girlfriend and I don't think that's because of my looks but my personality. Apparently I belong to the ''nice guy'' group. I don't talk thrash to girls, I smile at them, I listen to them, etc. In other words, I try to be as nice as I can. But they seem to be more interested in assholes. I never really understood why, but I heard a million explanations from ''more excitement'' to ''natural selection''. It never really bothered that I didn't find a girl, except from the common loneliness. But now, I found a girl that I'm completely crazy for and from what I understand from what she told me it's that she wants an asshole... sorry, I mean a ''badass''.She surely won't ever look at me in the way I want to. Sacrificing my ''nice side'' will totally ruin me and turn me into a soulless piece of shit, from what I can see from my ex-best friend. I plan on confessing by the end of the month and I'm completely lost now.

p.s. The fact that I am a romanticist, listen to melodic metal and watch anime makes girls less willing to have a relationship with me even more.

A good question is...Why are YOU interested in that type of girl?

Anyway, I think that most girls are not attracted to bad guys, are attracted to confident men that know what they want and go for it without caring what other thinks...The thing is, usually bad guys have this characteristic because it's hard to do what you want without being selfish. But a nice guy with this characteristic rules, they know how to be individualistic and at the same time make others feel nice

i think it all has to do with misclassification, when a women receives 100% kindness and dosent hav to work for it she may see it as a 100% friend like gesture, unlike a date. A women has to put effort into going on a date. If you listen to a girl's problems 100% of the time with out her fighting to gain ur attention it'll be too easy for her and you'll be branded as a Friend. Thats what ive learned through experience.

But being in a relationship might not help either, and it could make things worse. I've seen it happen to other people, and if the OP is really that lonely, I doubt dating will help.

Another thing I wanted to add is that women probably realize if you're desperate to date someone. They don't want to date some guy who will settle for anyone willing to date them. Also, another problem with "nice guys" is that they're, well... nice. If you're nice to all girls, it doesn't make the girl you're interested in feel very special. I'm not saying you have to be a dick, but treat them normally.

I think this video is related to the topic.
He talks about male and female sexual attraction.

As a child, I was told that society is a melting pot of talents; knowledge and experience combined to form important alloys that will contribute to mankind. When I got to highschool, however, I thought that it's more like a river in which the water represents our peers while we ourselves are the stones in the river. Constant erosion by mindless majority sheeping has made us lose our unique edge. After I hit the age of 18, I realized that I've been wrong all along. Society is no melting pot. Society is no river. Society is a person, a very skilled rapist, and he has fucked us all.
