Those Damn Bad Boys

They're ass holes, jerks, insensitive, careless, and for some reason so damn attractive. Then we complain about how guys are such ass holes yet here we are drooling over them. Our logic ladies and gents.
In many shows that I've watched, The Vampire Diaries for example, I find myself rooting for the bad boy, which in this case, Damon. I mean duh he's so damn hot! Though I feel if the roles were reversed and he was suddenly all nice and good, he wouldn't be as attractive. Why the hell  is that?? Maybe because the fact that he's so broken? Yet Stefan has gone through almost the same thing. Though it's in the way they handle themselves. One decides to care for others, the other decides to give no damn about no one. Bad boys aren't the type to fall in love, they just mess around, detached, without involving themselves too much with one person. Yet every girl wants to be that one girl that changes him, that makes this huge impact. The good guy is easy to love and to return that love. You expect it.  Though bad boys are the complete opposite, they don't even give a girl a chance at winning their heart. Unless they find the doppelganger of the one person they did ever fall for then you know shits bound to happen. (Vampire Diaries reference) When and if they do fall for a girl, its usually because the girls so damn stuck on caring for them, they admire their counterpart, they feel they are finally cared for, that finally someone sees there's more beneath them, and that someone believes in them. They're secretly emotional. We are attracted to their bad boy facade and hope that we can penetrate that front they put up. They're intense, they're passionate, and have such a way with words. They're the biggest temptation. After all it is usually that which we feel we can't attain that draws us even more. Its stupid to go after what you know will probably hurt you in the end. Though in the end a bad boy is just lost. A lost little boy who has lacked the care, the affection. He's damaged, and broken inside.
 What happened to him that has him so angry at the world? Who caused him so much hurt? Will he ever let me in and trust to tell me?  These are questions I asked myself when I found myself in the predicament of being attracted to a bad boy. They remind me so much of little boys for some reason. Sure they have that tough bad ass exterior, but you can always see it in their eyes. Trust me, look them in the eye and you can see their childhood, no matter if he's good or bad. You can see the damage or the joy, their inner child is always present in their eyes. So you wonder if you can bring him out of the hurt he's felt, if you can be the one to numb his pain, the one who he can finally trust, finally let in. The one to be the demise of his fury, his hate. Yet, you're gambling, because if you're not the one, you'll be the one broken after. Bad boys. They're a risk. They are dangerous, yet it is that very danger that lures us to them. Damn Bad Boys. 
May reason and logic be in your favor.
Blessed Be,
