I saw many couple when the girl look so decent then he date or even married a boy with punk hair with lot of earrings or those with almost typical of gangster/EMO character. Nonetheless I would not like to typecast those group and it is just assumption. In any relationship some say the opposite attracts so definitely I know some people are happy meeting their half where they have exactly opposite interest but they still love each other which becomes often the center of ridicule when they are talk about and yet they still proceed with their relationship.
How about you, is their an instances you feel attracted to a girl or boy with bad images? Is their something exciting/admirable about them which are not normally one could not get in a decent or normal typecast guy or girls?or it just because of their attitudes or just a manner of styles? What do you think so, kindly shares your thoughts? Do you have your types or you type cast?

I do like the "emo" or "scene" style on some guys, but I do not like bad boys- I prefer guys that don't party, and appreciate music/art/books.
Overall, I think I'm pretty picky when it comes to guys. It's hard to find a guy that looks attractive and is also smart and sweet on the inside; but I'm sure every girl runs into that problem, lol.

hi olisaur,
Yeah, the emo is just a manner of styles and feeling of being so emotional which is very natural and while some project a bad images the truth it is just a show but deep inside they also have a soft heart that know to understand and to care for their loved ones. sometimes it is hard to judge a book by its cover alone, you need to scan the whole book to know the real score just like in finding a partner everyone meet a lot of challenges before a strong relationship is built. thanks.

That better you have a good choice. I think it different people have different perception what other may like it is despise by other people and some resort to have the same kind of partnership when they learn to know the person more in a deeper level not just beyond the physical appearances. thanks.

Yeah by the pictures... bad girl image is yucky to me. On the other hand there are people who have a bit of 'rough around the edges' and the only thing I really appreciate about that type of girl is her confidence... and you don't need the look to have the rough confidence.
That being said, I don't think I'd gamble with a 'rougher' type of girl. In these types I am scared that exuberant confidence and spontaneity = less loyalty and trust. In that way they do tend to scare me... Anybody else paranoid that way?

I get interest with those kind of men you mentioned but I do not totally develop a love or some kind of infatuation. Maybe in movies, but not in real life. I remember I had a crush on Robin Padilla when I was a child, because he has a bad boy image on some of his films. I know the answer to that, in my opinion why do I sometimes like bad guys, it is because he can defend me. He can be there to save me when i need him. I believe he can protect me from bad people. That is the idea of it . But in real life I fall for bad guys, but I do not engage in relationship with them. I can still hide what I feel for them. I never imagine having a relationship with the bad guy. I believe it only leads to more serious problems in the future.

Dun u know or haven't u notice that's always the case?? Regardless in movies or real life, they are all the same.. lol =D I guess it's the excitment in life, the other party experienced from the 'bad' side of the guys.. haha =D
It's something totally different from their usual routine, and with that little difference, they can be hooked easily.. haha =D
PLus, bad guys are often cool, and they do know how to capture the gal's heart, very well.. lol =D

YEah it's been a long time, and i've been busy lately.. hehe ^_^
YEah, when both ple of similarities are together, they will soon be bored with each other, and in a wau, it's not healthy for the relationship, in the long run ^_^
SImiliar interest can bring a couple together, but can also bring them apart too ^_^

hi kun,
how are you long time no see..
still jolly a usual..
well, that is also what i notice that is why it is my topic it seem the opposite attracts whether others may admit or denied it is more evident since if both people have the same traits with no contradiction they lovelife would also suffer when they both no longer find fun with each others. so a little mix of salt, spices and garnishing makes any relationship to work both should know to values each other. that's right being bad or good have its own downsides.

I think physical appearance doesnt score as many points as vulnerability, sensitivity, generosity, caring attitude, a bit of childishness I guess... I watch, listen, and analyze. If the person is trying to add those physical attributes it may only be to cover some vulnerability. Generally, people who are or were more vulnerable don such appearances, to seem invincible.

hi vandana,
Most of the times out of pretenses while other display only a bad attitudes to make them appear strong and for other to be careful to cross on them or else they would find what they are least expected. the bad boy images may be distasteful to other people but trying to become their partner it only go to ruin if one is not prefer to build a good family. thanks.

Bad girls could come and go. i don't really notice. Bad boys are like dynamite. There is just an instant attraction to them. It just can't be helped.

hi sender,
that true especially if the physical show them as aggressive types and yet on the reality they just act like that so that other people would become envious of them. Also they act like big time person like a celebrities when they become so accustom to being tough just to scare others. thanks.

hi neelianoscet nope the bad boy image never turned me on as from early twenties on I saw too much of the hell a bad boy could cause for innocent people especially naive young women. No when I met my hubby to be he was not a wild bad boy but an earnest hard working happy go lucky
orderly in the hospital where I worked as a nurse's aide.

hi hatley,
that very true if they not only look bad physically but also their inner attitudes is also bad which makes them not attractive. however some just flash the badboy or and have some good attitudes which they just hide and eventually those closer to them like their loved ones are the only one who could understand them better. thanks..

No, I don't get attracted to guys with bad images. I mean, it scares me sometimes when I look at them and they look at me as if I did something wrong to them. Sometimes, it's funny to see a very nice girl who falls madly in love with a bad boy because you could really see their opposite sides. But it really depends on the person whoever they get attracted to.

My answer is a big no. I don't get attracted to bad boys because bad boys will just give me a headache, not to mention a heartache, if I fall really hard. Fortunately, my boyfriend is not a bad guy. I would hate to be married to a bad guy. I don't know what other women see in bad guys.

it depend s if it is only the style like having a macho image and not the attitudes i am somehow attract on it. Since being with a too good to be true person sometimes become boring . i seek some adventures sometimes that is quite differences than the ordinary.

hi janea,
as long as it is only a display and not a real bad images then it is still tolerable and one things which is very dangerous when you date a guy who look nice but actually is a serial killer and good disguising that would trick you would be the most dangerous one. thanks.

sometimes when i feel bored i wanna try to have a relationship with a boy who have the bad images like the way he move, talk or the manner of his style but not really on the bad types. I do not like to judge attitudes based on appearances alone so if I like to know the person better I need to know him him on the deeper levels first.

They are not attractive at all. I dont like that kind of image that they show off cause sometimes I think its a sign of insecurity. I like decent looking boys and girls. I know someone who has a notorious reputation when he was still in high school and a lot of school mates and classmates like him. It was something I didnt understand cause who would like someone like that. Maybe I am the weird one cause majority like people like that or maybe some but I am glad to know I am not one of them.

hi p3ks626,
That really weird too as some good girls or even guys fall for the wrong person and even if their peers object to it they insist to continue their relationship. maybe they see somthing which a normal girl does not notice and they have qualities which makes them an exciting companion since they have relentless passion fir adventures and tying neew things which makes their life not a boring one. thanks.

Bad girl image.. a big no-no for me. Though I was a bad boy before my wife and I met. She knew all about my vices. Sure I didn't dress like the guy you described. I lived up to the term "BAD" Oh yeah. She knew all the women I dated before her. She knew where I hang out. How I always report for work drunk. How my boss always ask me to step into his office... for a little desk banging scene. But hell... my wife loved me as I am. Or she says she found a spark of goodness... which I have to admit I still can't see.

Judging someone by the way they dress up is quite unfair to think that they have the same personality the way they dress...
Sometimes I GET attracted to someone is has that image.... but becuase he is mean to everybody but super duper nice to me... and it makes me feel special...
But I also prefered a decent man looking...
But all i can say is youll never know whats they real character unless you take time to get to know them first.

No I am not for the bad boy image type. I like the shy and quiet type as I am the loud and noisy kind. They say opposites attract so maybe that is the reason why.
It is true that we cannot judge a person by what we see outside, but I dont know, there is something about rugged, or punk, gothic types that turns me off.

I hate to admit but i am sometimes attracted to bad boy images since they look so strong like they could be my protector against other bullies. Also with their macho images i feel being well loved and taken care and also love their being adventurous. For me life would not be boring.
