Guys being too good was not charming enough, was it? Why are all his intentions transparent? Where is the excitement? Being a good man was not good enough for us. What brought out excitement was the bad boy who behaved like a jerk for five days a week. Dating a bad boy has been appealing – he had a smooth tongue with sexy hair, swept you off your feet until you felt your heartbeat in your mouth. The dangerous element was good at first until you noticed him flaking out every time you got serious. Over time, you sorted out the jerks with acting skills from the ones who genuinely cared about you. Dating bad boys just makes you look cool…nay, after a point, even the looks fall short. It is at that moment of disillusionment that you learn, good guys have always been around.
Scientific Reasons Why You Are Attracted To The Bad Boys
When in high school or in college it’s always the guy who rides the bikes fast or flaunts the convertible, have those six packs or have their ear or navel pierced, walks away with all the attention. The good-in-studies guys are called nerds, their specs or books are held unattractive by the girls and they are often teased for being too bookish Scientifically it has been proved that young girls do not choose the good buy because of their raging hormones that make them go for the alpha male who often turns out to be the dominating jerk. A scientific research shows that when women are ovulating they have the tendency to go for the bad boys and think that they could be the good dads. Research has also shown that narcissists tend to be more physically attractive and it’s their megalomania that women often find extremely attractive.

It is not until much later in life that they start looking for stability in the man they choose and a good father for their future off springs. They choose the good guy when he ticks the boxes for being the best life partner.
