That's also on my mind. A lot of people I know who are ladies men are rather cool to me...

...Maybe I'm one of the douche bags...

Haha you and me both man.

Basically, the guys that don't get girls just want something to whine about, as opposed to taking responsibility for their own lives.

I get where the OP is coming from. I've seen girls fight over guys that are bums. No job, no future, lazy etc. It makes one wonder "what do they see in this goof?" I guess these types of men are easy to control, some women enjoy playing that mother role. Yuck.

Bottom line, life isn't fair. If women don't find you attractive, then that's the way it is and you either change your ways, and if that doesn't work, accept things the way they are. Women don't owe you anything so complaining about it isn't going to do you any good.

If this is based on the personal experience of the OP, then it is at least somewhat likely that he has no idea about how others see him.

Here is my take: the (frustrated) guy who is not getting dates from the women he wants to date has more animosity towards the women (who are not dating him) than the (d-bag) men (who are dating the women he wants to date but will not date him). It's usually more 'why is she with that d-bag/loser/a-hole (as opposed to a nice guy like me)' than 'how/why did that loser/d-bag/a-hole (as opposed to a nice guy like me) get her to go out with him?'

I don't know much about women who don't do well with men; wasn't sure it was even possible, haha! If a women isn't doing well with men, just go online!

And they do get rejected. They just don't take it personally, let it fester, and sign up to complain on City-Data.

Just saying.
VERY VERY good answer!

Just asking, but why is "douchebag" considered a pejorative term. Origin? The item is very practical. A tool. An item. There must be better words for the guy, or gal, who has no appeal to the opposite sex. Same sex is another matter perhaps.

My DW says that she knows women are more attracted to the "bad boys". She does not suggest they make good mates, fathers etc. She has no explanation.

Personally, I think it is height, hair and teeth related. Perhaps even odor. I've found that a wad of $100 dollar bills has made me far more attractive over the years which I then get to spend on my DW.

You, my friend, are exaggerating. Not all of "them douchebag guys" as you so eloquently phrased it "have so much girls around them." (Are you an english major, per chance?)

In fact, I would hazard to venture that less than half of those particular types of gentlemen are in the presence of quality female company.

I'd also reckon that there are plenty of clean & sophisticated guys out there with hot girlfriends or wives.

I'm guessing you've been having a bit o' bad luck in the dating world lately and are just venting a little.

Which is cool.

Guys who come off as dbs are often soft and cuddly once you get to know them.

Do you poke them with pencils repeatedly over a period of time to find out?
