probably you've seen such a few cases of women sticking with
their abusive husbands, but it's still unfair to label "bad" men as
the more desirable of the 2.
it's a mating game, and MAYBE some women behave like that JUST
because they like their guys that plays hard to get, or rather,
rebellious once in a relationship. who knows? maybe a guy that's
not so submissive keeps the said woman on the toes and thus the
relationship going? it could also happen the other way round.
I had this female friend who once told me that women have this
innate need to convert bad boys to good ones, that they'll get a
huge sense of satisfaction whenever they "tame" a wild guy. perhaps
that explain something?
I'm sure different women wants different things and there are
always places in this world for "good" and "bad" men, with regards
to finding a partner.
