Is it normal to be attracted to arrogant men?

Is it normal the only men I am attracted to seem to be arrogant? And the worst thing is I don't see it until the relationship is ends/ending and then it is hanging out of them.
I have no confidence in myself which I seem to mask awfully well with my crazy, out there personality, so I'm not arrogant myself at all and yet the only people I'm interested in love themselves, put themselves above women and thing the world revolves around them.
Please tell me there's other girls like this out there?

    Can't say I feel the same. There's just something about a man that would put his partner's needs in front of his own that screams sexy to me. But hey, arrogant men need love too, right? :P

    Hmm.. Well I like a man with a bit of a temper. That's a bit different though maybe?

    There's an article in psycology today magazine about this, it said that women are naturally attracted to arrogant men. My husband has an ego, but I think most men do.

    I think I am one of those man and I know what you mean. The problem with us is that we have this "God complex" it makes you think everything is gonna work out just fine because "hey, it's you after all" and that you don't need anything or anyone and never effected by anything (ie breaking up, someone dying etc.)

    Not being effected also means not falling in love. Thankfully (partly sad though) none of these are true.

    If you lower the defences you'll find the weakest man you've ever seen. I don't mean spineless, but it's easy to hurt us after a while. It's not like love-hurt though. You lose yourself, you lose your faith in yourself and all of that world that you've created collapses. Sort of like, killing someone actually, mentally.

    Either keep flattering him and he won't ever be able to truly leave you. He may be disrespectful at times and he may come and go but he just can't leave.

    Or you can play hard to get and challange his intelligence (or whatever his forte is) if you turn out to be average he'll be impressed because he believes average is much lower(on almost every subject).

    This sounds more like narcissim but oh well. Just make sure he is what you say he is, don't be an easy catch and don't try to help him on anything, If you can do it behind the scenes though just don't let him find out.

    You're probably attracted to confident/arrogant men because when you couple, their strength makes up for your weakness. Don't take my word though, I haven't studied psychology.

    But all men have an ego. We have to satisfy this ego somehow or we'll get upset. So don't confuse the male ego with arrogance, men need it to be happy and feel important.
