You’re asking the right question. Why do women chase the bad boy? I’ve watched it for years. A buddy of mine was chasing this girl — beautiful girl, sweet, level-headed — and she ends up going for the guy nobody should want. I know him. I know his type. Hell, I hang out with enough of them. Not idiots, but the dangerous kind. And the pattern is the same every time: women drift toward the bad boy for the same reason they drift toward football players, soldiers, men in uniform. It’s the warrior thing. A primal urge they swear they don’t have, but it’s still there. Evolution takes its sweet time catching up. Because in a world where the man who can buy the wildebeest should be the top choice, they still go for the guy who can hunt it. The nerd, the geek, the businessman — the ones who build the world — somehow end up invisible. I’m not telling anyone what to desire. But don’t date a bad boy, get treated like garbage, and then ask why men are pigs. Not all men are pigs. Just the men you date. Maybe check out the nerd. I’m not saying don’t be attracted to the football player or the fireman. But the biker with the 1% tattoo under his eye and an Iron Cross on his head? Maybe steer clear. Then again — it’s your life. sewermeetsthesea.substack.com #BadBoys #WhatWomenWantInAMan #SuccessfulMenAndDatingDilemma
