The Shape of Desire: Obsession Stronger Than Control

Glenn Renner Everyone says, “Oh, the good girls always tend to fall for a bad boy.” Bull s**t. No girl wants a man who she cannot trust her life with. In society’s perception, a bad boy is a man who smokes, has tattoos all over his body, reckless and involved in a group of gangsters. Doing the illegal stuff. But the truth everyone knows but doesn’t accept is, a bad boy is a man who looks, acts and portrays his personality as sweet, gentlemanly and kind. A prince. Every girl who chose a bad boy had a history of experience with a Prince, who’d happily sacrifice her for other things, someone else, cheat and justify his actions with a ridiculous explanation. “Oh, my darling, I did not cheat on you because I’m an a*****e. I cheated on you because you wore make-up on the tour that you planned and paid for. I did not like it.” “Oh love, I didn’t mean to insult you in front of my family. But you see, my mother is an important person in my life. She just wanted to help us. By ruining our proposal moment.” The list goes on. Every girl has gone through with this man-child at least once. So, yes, I don’t blame any woman who chose a “Bad man” who’d not hesitate to break a few bones if someone looked wrong at her, over a f*****g a*****e "Prince." I get it girl.
