    No. Not all guys are like you described. Though, more often than not women prefer the type of guy you described, but then complain about there not finding any nice guys.

    To a good extent the nicer guys aren't nearly as "fun." We aren't exactly risk takers, minimally adventurous, and most women have this fantasy of being swept off their feet. The "jerks" play into the fantasy of sweeping a girl off her feet. They tend to be somewhat outgoing, adventurous, risky, competitive, and flattering.

    I also think a part of what attracts women to jerks is their desire to nurture. With the assumption that they might be able to change them somehow. To make them "nicer" -- though, most attempts to change people fail because it neglects how people truly have any lasting change.

    Oddly enough, the guys you probably write off as boring are probably some of the best types of guys to be in a relationship with.

    And self-absorbed, and only want one thing...I know a lot of women who are like that as well. Granted, I don't date them. I've come to know better.

    I would certainly hope not! Being a guy myself, I would like to think this is certainly not the case. And I'm assuming by "only [wanting] one thing" you mean sex. My answer is a resounding no.

    You must first realize two things: a) no guy is perfect, and comes with his own set of both flaws and quirks, and b) both men AND women are very imperfect beings.

    Stay patient, and keep searching for that nice guy. They're out there. There are plenty of us, you know. And here's the ironic part: we're looking for the same things in you girls, too.

    Stay open-minded, stay smart, and remember to be forgiving. The perfect guy or girl does not exist; but the one who will love you uncontrollably for exactly who you are DOES exist.

    Good luck, sorry for your bad experiences in the past, and thanks.

    Most of them , but not all.

    But what about girls? Have you ever thought of that?

    Or do you just blame boys for acting like it?

    There is girls self absorbed don't be picking on others >.<

    That's what it seems like, but I hear there are some good ones out there. They just don't come cheap or easy. You have to search girl! I'm still searching myself, kissing all the frogs until I find that prince!

    Good luck! your gonna need it.

    no all guys not same ,some are totally different .but it is ur choice to think about it if u think that they are same u can.but as a guy i know no one is same .

    boys are all different and have different needs.but yes it is true that some of the boys need same thing but not every guy is same.

    it is ur own thought.

    absolutely not, of course bad luck plays into that perception, but if you think about it, the media is one of the main reasons that all men (or boys in my case) only think about themselves and about sex. In my opinion, girls are the ones who are always playing mind games and changing their mind, something that is absolutely true and is not blown up by the media... :) just my input

    can you help me?

    there are asssholes like the ones your described

    and there are the asssholes who say they are nice and only the girl matters and say they are "sensitive" and are willing to change..they suck and they dont mean it...even if they do

    and they say personality is the only important thing..

    when its not

    then there are the ones in-between...who are normal

    a-list...are ALL girls the same in what they want...obviously not so not all guys r either...sounds a little like catagorizing to me...

    common sense should tell u that.
