Knicked this from another website, which in turn took it from Glamour magazine: "10 Bad Guys Worth Dating Anyway."
"The Much Older Man, to get that creepy Dad thing out of your system."
Yep. Done this twice. First when I was 19 and had a wild passionate fling with a man who was 43 (and was 2 years older than my Dad at the time). He was gorgeous, tall and lean. Had a great smile. He was an international polo player (so you can imagine the thighs on him LOL). Lasted for the summer I was home between first and second year of university. Second time was a few years ago, a set up with a man who was 20 years older than me. Nice bloke, but when we went out for dinner, I felt like I was being paraded around, like a badge/trophy or something.
"The Too-Good-Looking-for-Me Guy, because those are your insecurities talking, and you should tell them to shut up!"
Check. Last long-term boyfriend was very very good looking (think a dark Matthew McConnaughey). He turned into a Nazi Gym Instructor, used to monitor what I ate, when I exercised etc. On the plus side I had a killer body, on the downside, he was a fucking nutbar! (Only took me 5 years to figure that out LOL).
"The Dumb Jock, because there's a lot to be said for endurance."
Not dumb jocks, but I have been out with some nice, but dim, rugby players. Not sure about the endurance thing though LOL. One guy didn't even last 30 seconds. Bless his heart. A few of them though, phwaor, good in the sack!
"The Potentially Gay Guy, for the potentially forever friendship."
Yes. We met on our first day of university (in a lecture for Politics 101), we used to bitch and backstab about everyone in our halls of residence. And we used to concoct outrageous plots to outshine a bride on her wedding day ('cos it's not all about the bride thankyouverymuch! LOL). He's still a very good and dear friend, lives in Sydney and is my personal style guru LOL.
"The Pretentious Intellectual. If nothing else, you'll have the whole who-vs-whom thing solved forever."
Ugh. Brendan. Second year of university, he was a third year law/economics student. Which translates to utter twat.
"The Euro Snob. Steal his fancy bath products!"
Well, if David Beckham ever left Posh, then I'd be up for a bit of product sharing.
"The Non-committal Guy, because he's a rite of passage that will bond you with every other woman on earth."
Hmm, well I'm the actual non-committal girl, so maybe I'm a guys rite of passage! Cool LOL.
"The Guy Who Needs To Be Saved, to teach you that you can't do that for anybody."
Nope. Haven't done that one. I'm not a life-saver.
"The Money-Hungry Bastard. You'll quickly scratch "rich" off your wish list."
Haven't been out with a really money-hungry guy, but I did go out with this guy who was very rich. He wasn't pretentious about it though, but he did like to pay for everything, which wasn't really a problem for me LOL.
"The Cute-but-Dorky Guy, because in the long run, dorky might not matter."
Well, I do have a soft spot for dorks but I haven't dated any of them (the cute factor would have to be greater than the dork factor...yes, I'm that shallow LOL).
Ah, memories.
*sigh*
