No More Mr Nice Guy?

[nailit]

I was watching a female dating coach on the "This Morning" show today. She claimed that women don't want a 'nice guy', and find 'bad boys' much more interesting (and challenging). Some years ago I was the only male at my place of work and when it became known (inadvertently, I certainly didn't advertise the fact) that I'd previously served a few prison sentences, I suddenly found myself the centre of female interest and went on to date one of the females there for a couple of years, in fact at the time I could have literally had my pick of females. At the time I was far from been a 'gentleman', I drank too much, turned up to work hungover, argued with the manager (no one else would), and generally didnt give a toss.
And yet I had loads of female attention....
So what is it?...mothering instinct?
Personally I find it bizarre. I wouldnt want anything to do with a woman thats been to prison, turns up for work with a hangover and who is argumentative.

That might not have worked....these Salvation Army girls can be quite ...agile.

I would tell you a story but it would upset the female ABers.

Sqad, do tell what she did with a tambourine.
nailit, when you said you were too much of a gent, I thought you would drink her beer and leave her the wine.

[Sqad]

baza.......LOL....nothing to do with her tambourine, it was what did she do with her "War Cry?"

I still remember the time it all started. I had been at work for a few months and enjoyed my work and the women I worked with. (what man WOULDNT enjoy work been surrounded by ladies?) and then we went on a christmas night out. Halfway through the night I bumped into an ex con who was worse the ware for drink, that I had recently been in prison with. He started to blab about our time in prison. I wanted the floor to open up and swallow me but instead found myself the centre of (unwanted) attention from my work collegues. For some reason they suddenly found me 'fascinating' and after that suddenly found myself very popular.
As I said, I just find it bizarre.

nailit......true.....true. There is no accounting for taste.......particularly where women are concerned.

////Some women fall "in love " with serial killers on death row.
Some women like the satisfaction of being "laid" by a celeb..e.g footballer or TV star.
Some women like the "power" game.......to get laid by the "boss"
All women like the excitement of "the forbidden fruit."////

DEFINITELY NOT TRUE IN MY CASE. Sqad must hang out with some strange women if that is what they're all after.

I prefer a well groomed, intelligent, reliable man.

[Sqad]

Daffy....exactly.

Women love a bar steward

[ummmm]

I don't like bad boys. I want a man who will treat me with respect and that's what I've got...and it works both ways.

I always liked bad boys when I was younger, but did outgrow it. It's the excitement and unpredictability. Once you're ready for children, etc, I think you want a different "type".

I want George Clooney but that ain't gonna happen !

[ummmm]

You never know Janbee....it might happen, keep your fingers crossed :-)
