True stories from women who are attracted to jerks, because we’ve all been there

Dating can be hard. So are relationships. Finding a person we want to spend a lot of time with, sleep with, or get married to can be difficult. And often, people make it harder on themselves, like women who are attracted to jerks. Sometimes we think we know what we want and we find out that we’re wrong. Other times we are completely clueless in what we want in a mate. A lot of times women get chastised for overlooking the ‘nice’ guys and going for the assholes, jerks, and bad boys. Why do women go after men that don’t treat them as well as they could or should? Is it really fair to completely blame women for this phenomenon? After all, it does take two to tango.

Here’s some insight into why women might not buy into the ‘nice guy’ mantra from Whisper.

Doomed from the start

We don’t judge

In need of a confidence boost

It’s crystal clear

What is love? Baby don’t hurt me…

Nice guys can have confidence

Nice guys can be hot too!

The self-fulfilling prophecies

Assertiveness can be hot

We need more decisiveness

Not seeing the forest through the trees

He was irreplaceable

Being mean doesn’t equal love

Break the habit!

The truth can set you free

Accidents happen!

We all deserve better

Some boots are made for walking

Find some whose crazy matches your crazy

What, were you saying something?

Everyone needs to live a little

Can’t judge a book by it’s cover

Whatever type of person you’re into, your happiness and well-being are the most important parts of a relationship. We deserve happiness. We deserve a person who is willing to celebrate our highs and support us during our lows. Sometimes, a nice person might not seem like the most viable candidate but sometimes people can surprise you. Even the secret nice guys buried inside the guy who seems like the jerk.
