Ladies, Why Do We Date Jerks?
This week’s rant is dedicated to my creative writing class in which this question was posed: “Why do girls date jerks?”
It
got a good laugh, but one can’t help but wonder, “No really, why do
girls date jerks?” To nice boys it just does not make sense. But to me
it does, and to anyone who has dated and been driven crazy by a jerk it
does.
Good girls attract bad boys like good bass attracts
teenagers to each other in that gross dry humping sort of way. They can
never get enough. They call us, date us for a little while and then
walk away as soon as we start to show too much interest. Many girls go
through this cycle many times before they can accept and change the
pattern. Any girl you approach will either be on her way into this
situation, fresh from it or currently wrapped in it. It is a hard,
vicious cycle to escape and for most of us, once is not enough. Every
day in my classes I learn so much, but I don’t think anyone can teach a
young woman that a bad guy is the wrong way to go until it is too late.
When
I really think about it, it seems funny. Girls tend to drift towards
the guy who will forget her birthday. Or the guy who will make-out with
her best friend. Or the guy who will always forget his wallet. Or the
guy who always forgets to call and then has some lame excuse as to why
he didn’t. And let’s not forget the guy who buys you a sweater for your
birthday that is three sizes too big and swears it was a mistake (he
just thought your boobs were bigger). And of course the guy who will
never let you hang out with him and his friends because you’re not
really his “girlfriend.” These douche bags do all of this and then make
you feel like it’s your fault they acted like they did.
Contrastingly,
the good guy will never forget your birthday, your best friend’s or
your mother’s. He will never let you pay even when you try, though,
occasionally he’ll let you split it. He never forgets to call. He
always gets you perfect gifts, and if he messes up, he returns it for
something that you will really like. And all of his friends know and
respect you and your place in their best friend’s life. These guys are
so kind and so sweet, yet they are the ones that are always getting
dumped. I know because I have done the dumping, we all have. It’s not
easy to admit, but once girls do they are one step closer to figuring
out why it is that they date jerks.
So, here is my theory to why
this is happening and why it will continue to happen until the end of
the time. My mom is happily married to one of the nice guys; a really
nice sweet guy. But in high school and in college she dated some bad
boys. They were quite naughty. She dated a boy in high school for a
very long time, who ended up not graduating. And she was crazy about
him, loved him to pieces and why? In my opinion, having been there
myself, I think girls cannot turn away from a bad boy. I used to
believe it was an internal need to take care of them. But even that
gets old. It seems like the only thing they have going for them is the
walk away factor.
They always make sure they have the power to
just walk away. They treat you like they don’t really care and for
many, they don’t. By doing this, they trigger this factor inside us
girls that causes us to go crazy. We begin the very long process of
analyzing and over analyzing every detail of why they didn’t call, what
we did to upset them, and it this that keeps us going back for more. We
have to know why, but in most cases there is no why. There is just them
taking advantage of the walk away factor.
You guys may have
other names for this, the go crazy factor, the love and leave’em
factor, the hit it and quit it factor, the well, his junk was pretty
big factor, or maybe even the unattainable factor. No matter what you
call it, it keeps drawing in girls. We can’t seem to turn away. I don’t
doubt that eventually we do. My mom married a good man, and most of my
friends’ moms married good men. So if those women from that generation
can do it then we can too, right? I mean, how hard can it be? Even
children understand that when you touch the hot stove it is going to
burn, don’t put your hand back up there right? But for some reason we
keep on touching it like maybe next time it’ll be nice and cool like
pool water.
In fact as I sit here in my back porch, sipping
raspberry-flavored tea and looking quite the college kid on a laptop
and wearing reading glasses, one of my most favorite ladies is inside
on the phone with one of those jerks. She will no doubt begin to ream
him for his douche bag actions, and at the end, forgive him and laugh
coyly at his jokes. One day he will get another chance, but I am in no
place to judge. I have done with same thing time and time again. We
can’t help it. There is nothing we can do. For a portion of our lives
we are defenseless against it, but I’m not worried, it will all be okay
one day.
So girls, don’t let these boys make you too crazy,
and boys, well nice boys, don’t you worry. We may date the douche bags,
but we marry you.

| what up hommies? im just sitting in my front lawn parking
cars....the wonders of wireless internet. i was thinking why is
every 2nd vehicle a truck or suv? i mean i am no tree
hugging liberal or anything, but seriously. 95% of
these cars are never going to see anything but pavement...not to
mention will be driven by one person for 90% of the time. so why
do i make this point? no i dont really care about the
ozone....and i dont really care about smog in LA. i am conserned
about the gas prices. we are creating a huge market for the
sellers. the 12 miles a gallon taken on a 40 gallon tank gets you
480 mile range and costs you as of today, at 2.69/gal, about 107.60 to
fill up...that is roughly 22 cents per mile driven. when you
cross that with a car like a honda civic, that gets upwards of 30 miles
a gallon with around a 13 gallon tank...that puts you at a range of 390
miles and costs you 34.97 to fill up. that is that is roughly 9
cents a mile driven.... do you see where i am going with this....
if the gas market wasnt flooded with trucks and suvs, the gas prices
wouldnt be so high, but right now we have made the demand is so
high.
lets look at another cost efficiency experiment for a moment. the
average person, according to automotive news, drives 15,000 miles a
year. that maybe a little high for college students, but we are
going to stick with it. ok at 15000 miles a year with an average
gas price of 2.50 a gal. lets do the math. if you are
driving an suv, you will end up spending 3125 on gas. with a
smaller car you will spend 1250. that is a savings of 1875
dollars. now im just going crazy. thats a waste of 156.25 a
month.
in conclusion, i hate my suburban

| well hello cyberstalkers, nice to see you again. i havent posted a song
in awhile, so i thought i would post one. but first i would like
to give a shout out to my boys in stilly, i wish i got to see you guys
more often, i just might have to take a trip. and
especially to that red headed one....you are hot. well now on to
the song, this one is emo, borderline screamo. i dont
think we really have one that sounds like this yet.... so ive been
working on it. i started writing it a few months ago, but didnt
have the "motivation" to finish it til this week. well without
further expanation, here is the trl premiere of "anthem of broken
hearts"
(verse 1)
Entertain the thought of being friends
been down that road, know how it ends
you say you never felt this way before
(echo: why are you heading for the door?)
Smiles choked as eyes they glissen
my heart said no, but i didnt listen
the chore is to not feel anymore
(echo: why are you heading for the door?)
(prechorus)
im not bitter, im not bitter
maybe a little bit, i am
(chorus)
i am better without you
and hoping all these words ring true
just like yours, just like yours
i'd do anything it takes
but im careful cause my heart will break
unlike yours, unlike yours
when i should have known right from the start
this is the anthem of a broken heart
(verse 2)
spin my wheels, push my buttons
and you said it all meant nothing
sorry if i was blinded by the light
(echo: please tell me everything will be alright)
stressed, depressed, it left me lame
walking by yourself is never the same
silience screams as the clock strikes midnight
(echo: please tell me everything will be alright)
(prechorus & chorus)
(bridge)
but youre not crying and youre not caring
everyone's here, and they're all staring
and theres no notion, a hint of devotion
it makes it clear, there's no emotion......
(prechorus & chorus)
(out with a trashcan ending)
well i would like to thank all the people that have made this song
possible, chances are you know who you are. i should probably give you writing credit, your an inspiration. peace peeps.
