Do girls like guys who are jerks?

Being the nice guy isn't working for me, and it seems some hot girls get turned on by "bad boys".

Maybe I need to be more of a jerk? IE insted of saying, so do you want to do anything tonight? COME OVER NOW AND BANG ME B***.

Does this actualy work?

Depends on where you're hangin'. Do girls like jerks? Depends on what you mean by a jerk, I suppose. Girls like challenges, just like we do. Put yourself out there, go for a good time and don't think about anything else. If you come across as easily conquered (emotionally in particular), you're toast with any girl worth her salt. Be fun, and be aloof -- let them in physically, but not emotionally.

Hypothesis: Most women prefer jerks
Experiment Procedure:
1. Become a jerk.
2. Try to get women.
3. Observe results.

WARNING: Be prepared to pick up teeth from ground

Sounds like a lack of playing time. Spend more time trying to pick up women than here and you will find the answer, grasshopper. My experience is that women like confident types that are romantic, btw

Most of the women I'm interested in usually fall for type-A personalities. I'm curious to see if this changes as we all get older-perhaps they'll want something more...house-trained for marrige?

I got nowhere with women untill I became confidant and assertive. While you might consider them a 'jerk' the girl might think of them as something very different...

cheers,
dan r.

Catching a girl

Catching a woman is like being in a room and trying to catch a falling feather. The more you try to catch the feather the harder it is to catch it....and like the waiting hand...just allow the feather to fall into the hand...much like a Venus fly trap...Snap! Then treat'em like what best fits your personality...and when they want to marry....RUN like Forrest Gump

Acting like a jerk is probably not going to yield someone with the personalty you're looking for. It's a confidence/security issue for them.

The jerks always win with the women in the early years, then the women realise it's not worth it and come crawling back to us - the decent guys.
My "high school sweet heart", if you will, was one of my best friends.
Throughout our years of friendship, she knew exactly how I felt, but would always push me away when I made it clear. Then she started seeing this pond life scum trailer trash guy. She was with him for 2 years, in which they split up 3 times, all of them because he was cheating her. I would have broken his legs on a whim, had she asked me, but every time she would crawl back to him and they would get back together.
Then, a couple of years later I found out she always felt exactly the same way about me, even though she had always denied it to my face. That really messed things up.
I wish I could say that we're together now - we're not - but I know that the guy she's in a long term relationship with now is a good bloke who will treat her as well as I would have.
What I'm saying is don't change yourself, don't let yourself become one of them. Keep as you are, and soon enough you'll stumble across someone who's most likely been hurt in the past, who just wants a decent, good person. It's the same story over, and over again, and it's always the same.

Works for me! How do you think I've won dates with most of the chicks in the pretty girl's thread?

Quite possibly the most meaningful thing I've heard this millenium!

Just be yourself. Unless your a total loser, then try to be somebody else.

get a copy, read it through a couple of times.




It's not a guide or anything, it does infact have a storyline. It's all true, though. well worth a read.

Do girls like guys that are jerks?

I don't think so.

I've never had any fortune with girls. But I guess I am a very oblivious guy, from what I've been told.

Occurrences such as a girl introducing her name, a girl I've never seen before, asking about common interests, talking about her life....

Me: Who are you again?

While I typed away at my term paper on the future impact of globalization.

Another girl approached me one night, I hadn't seen her in at least eight years. She reintroduced herself to me (had a serious crush on her in eighth grade). Didn't remember who she was. Real smooth...Who are you?...Oh!

Then after they're done speaking, a moment of silence....I can not carry out conversations in person for my life. This kills any type of friendship from forming, or anything else FWIW.
I just do not know how to speak as candidly as they do. I don't have the ability I suppose. They're such motormouths in general.

I've also turned down giving my phone # when I was in high school. I was actually insecure about giving out that kind of personal information to a girl I knew for (only) three years.

Doomed to remain a bachelor forever. Just the kind of guy I am, I suppose.
