Friend: Pretty, great personality, intelligent, funny, well-read and a great body. She attracts men like honey attracts flies, and looking at things from an objective POV, I can see why. She's not a bad person. Also in serious legal trouble that will cost a lot to get out of ... very dependent/helpless ... expects the man in her life to take care of serious issues that only she can make right. Her relationships rarely last more than a couple of months, tops. I expect they figure it out ...

Thank goodness she did not get pregnant and he cut off their relationship, but she was someone that will probably spend her whole life in toxic relationships.

Yet....she always has a boyfriend, or dates, even after I warn dudes about her. She dated 2 of my really good male friends a few months apart and I absolutely couldn't believe the second one dated her after seeing the hell she put the first one through. It was incredible.
Whats the Attraction to these women? Are they that good looking?
Amazingly, Ive never had a relationship with this type of person as I usually attract the Common sense, grounded type of personality.

I'm going to come out with a Bumper sticker or T-Shirt that says:

Men are Stupid, Women are Crazy.

Now granted that does not apply to everyone just about 50% of the people in this world. Men and women can see a disaster headed their way and think it won't happen to them.

In mens cases, many times their little brain overrides their big brain. Amazing what we'll put up with just to get laid, thus the stupid part.

Ive been attracted to "a little crazy" in the case of a really attractive woman before. Fortunately, she didn't find me attractive

Yeah, it takes about that long for the mask to come off.

True. It's not like there isn't a forest of red flags beforehand - you just brush them off and then you get brush fire!

Is it just that she's trying to suck money out of them? Money to some guys is nothing. Some guys have toy collections that they put 50k a year into and some more. Helping out their girlfriend would not seem too unreasonably?

Great post. I was pretty cool with a guy in college, who every so often would get cussed out by girls he dated - either in person, via text, etc. And each time, his story would always be the same - "She's crazy." He'd give the same answer when asked why a certain relationship didn't work out. Most of our friends figured they weren't all crazy or that he must have done something to make those women react like that. He even left a job because he screwed over a few of the females he was working with. Toxic!!

Unfortunately, yes. He targets average-looking insecure types that never had a relationship before, and breaks their heart in a few months. That reminds me, I really should remove him from Facebook...
