Do you wonder if relationships with bad boys last?

Watch the video and read the article to make sure you don’t get stuck with a bad boy.

Let me first explain what I mean when I say relationship bad boy.  I mean the kind of man who is so selfish or self absorbed that his main concern is only about getting his needs met within a relationship and his girlfriends needs are not really on his radar.

For whatever reason a relationship bad boy can’t or won’t focus on anything outside of himself and that is not the stuff of relationship dreams.  So for that reason my short answer is no, I don’t believe a relationship with a relationship bad boy will last over the long term,  no matter how much you want it to.  

Let me explain why I believe this.

Relationships with non bad boys is difficult enough, but when you have the added ingredient of being with a man who is difficult, shall we say, then it makes your work even harder.  You see for any relationship to be successful it takes both people in it to make the relationship their priority.  It takes both of you to make it work and to keep working on it.

Now with our normal guy, our Mr Right, he won’t always find this sharing stuff that we women do as simple nor easy, so imagine it when you have a man whose only thought is what you’re going to do for him?  Won’t work will it?

Let’s take another situation, physical attraction.  With some relationship bad boys there comes with them a heightened danger, an excitement that gives rise to you both having a great physical relationship with each other.  But after a while even that can grow old when it’s apparent that again it’s his needs that need satisfying first.

Now of course this isn’t always true, but what I have found is that there is no guarantee that a self absorbed man can satisfy you in any aspect of your relationship over the long term- not when it may take any discussion about your preferences,  because he’s less likely to listen and less likely to really care enough to change.

So I’m laying it on thick here because I want you  to get this.  The whole point in a relationship with someone is for it to meet both your needs and though it is expected that the bulk of looking after the relationship will rest on your shoulders as the woman, that gets more difficult if you don’t get any support from the man you’re dating.

What I will say however, is that despite the fact that our relationship bad boy wouldn’t necessarily be great long term relationship material, if you know his limitations and you’re able to go into the relationship with him with your eyes open, then you could have fun, which is no bad thing, is it!
