>>38628706Girl here, I can confirm that I really like the "quiet/serious boy, trying to get him out of his shell/trust you" trope, and it's actually what I did with my bf. He was very depressed, reserved, would never smile, etc., but slowly we became closer and seeing him smile every day is what makes me the happiest.
But even so, I hate actual assholes. If it's an actual "bad" boy then I have zero interest and there's nothing attractive in that, no matter how "objectively" handsome he may be or whatever, if he's a bad person he becomes hideous in my eyes, and many friends can agree.
