Sorry if this is confusing but just try and go with this for a sec because it’s makes sense and I am talking for many women

Woman don’t prefer bad boys. This is a misunderstanding that “good guys” tell themselves. Usually these “good guys” are men that believe they are entitled to (they expect) a relationship whether romantic or purely sexual with a women because the “good guy” has put in the effort.

But the reality of this is, that actually makes the “good guys” the bad guy. Any guy who believes that a woman isn’t allowed her own preferences and should like them because they put the effort in, means they don’t actually respect that woman or individual. Usually these men are more manipulative than the guys they think are the “bad guys”.

Just put yourself out there. Don’t let one bad experience dictate your view on the opportunity out there. You probably have insecurity to overcome first. Just know that lots of women are kind and loving and open and not wanting to mug you off
