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.
