Why do I always crush on people who are mean to me?

I know of a few really nice, down to earth, pleasant guys who have expressed interested in me, but I'm not attracted to them :confused:

Yet atm my current crush wouldn't care if I was run over by a bus tomorrow (or he'd laugh or something).

Come from a dysfunctinal family, mother cheated on father, father always pandering to her requests. Personality wise as odd as this sounds, I'm a lot like my father - I go for people who have a nasty streak. Please help :frown:

For example, this attractive and just, NICE guy I know wants to take me out for dinner but for some reason I just don't feel anything for him?

This really sucks because if I did, I'd be pretty happy! !

So you like bad boys?
There's nothing wrong with that :smile: They provide you with a bit of a challenge.

Well that's exactly it, but why can't I fancy this nice person who wants to take me out?? :biggrin: I don't understand :confused:

Just go out to dinner with him to see if you enjoy yourself. If you don't meh, just be honest with him.

I already have and I am not attracted to him. Why God why?? :biggrin:

Yet I currently like this bastard :s-smilie:

What are you trying to say?

I'm not as vacuous as you think... I could be doing a nursing degree for all you know.

I apologise for my tasteless joke. I commend you for doing nursing.

It won't last long with a mean guy. Find someone nice.

It sounds like there was a lot of drama in your childhood, so you are now seeking similar drama because it is all you have known. You must brake that cycle for your own hapiness. Good luck :smile:

the Sitch: You, like all humans, love acceptance and approval, but you don't yet discriminate between those worthy enough and the deadwood.

your Solution: Get picky, pronto, and have your eye on more than one person at once - believing that you have many more options, even if you'd have to work to get them, forces us to make brilliant decisions. Try it, starting with school/uni on Monday morning. :biggrin:

So... yawn. Another thread where some girl only wants bad boys. That is until they take your heart, rip it out and spit on it. Oh sure, they won't do it for a while, they'll just wait until you're just thinking you've changed their ways, then they'll suddenly turn on you leaving you cold and alone. After all your friends have left you because they tried to warn you and you told them to get lost.

Oh yes, the bad guy will get you in the end.

I always fall for mean guys who don't care about anything or anyone and certainly don't feel the same way back - i think i just like them because i can't have them lol.

I must admit I would rather be a player than have a solid girlfriend at my age.

And once you decide to have a solid girlfriend you'll find the only people who are interested in you are players. If you begin as a player you end as a player with no happy ending.

Maybe cos you're Dad had a similar personality to you and got messed about you feel this would happen to you, so you go after mean guys that show no interest you and won't have a relationship with you, because they can't cheat on you and hurt you if they don't even get with you in the first place.

Saying that, I never like the nice guys who like me either, just because they get kinda clingy and dependant. I like to have to work for something.
