Ah.. the Sunday New Paper. Like i've said countless times before, my favourite newspaper of the week. This week its all about love...

I used to always question why good girls always love bad boys. Why do girls keep going back to guys that hurt them again and again? Why do girls stand by their guy even though he cheats on them again and again? Even though he keeps hurting them, both physically and emotionally? The psychological point of view was given in the New Paper. There are many reasons, but one of the biggest reasons is that these girls have the misconception that love means that they must be hurt. If they go out with someone who does not hurt them, it makes them feel funny. Well, i can't really understand why they have that misconception. Seriously. Why in the world would love have to mean being hurt?

I have also heard that its because they want to be the one to 'change him'. And i guess i see that point. I mean, its a real big boost for the ego when someone 'changes' because of you. I guess this point makes sense... which is why the bad boys win:( but then, i heard that good girls date bad boys, but marry good boys ^.^)

Another part of the New Paper talks about what women want. Apparently, if three women's magazines are to be believed, what women want nowadays is not romance. Its sex. Women are getting horny. Women want to have one night stands, they don't want to commit, etc etc. In fact.. *gasp*.. women are becomming like men! Then.. after that they surveyed Singaporean women and apparently not that many of them think that way. Most of them still want romance. Phew. i was getting worried for a moment there. If women became like men, we'd all be in big trouble.
