Why do girls love emo boys? Options

[*jeanna*]

Seriously, it's getting out of hand. I have been waiting for a long time for this trend to be over that I see 25 year old men keeping the scene look going with their balding spots [no joke].

What I noticed is that teenage girls LOVE LOVE emo boys. I think it is because they want someone who is emotionally available as if emo boys are different than other guys? Is it bisexuality coming into play with the long hair and female type clothes? lol, idk and thought I would ask.

I just don't understand the whole concept behind being "emo".

I mean your placing yourself in a naturally depressive situation on purpose just for the sake of being one of the pack, the music you listen to would depress even the cheeriest of people after a while, your icon expresses thoughts of suicide, your quote in your signature talks about drug use, hopelessness and pain. Everything you surround yourself with makes life seem so much more sad and painful than it really is, it's just such a pessimistic lifestyle and way of looking at life, it's hard to have fun when you always think the glass is half empty.

Don't you ever just want to step back and say,"Hey, my life isn't that bad, let's go do something fun, or go listen to some fun music and dance or something and just live life."

i just listen to the music i like and dress in clothes i like... i've given up on disagreeing with people who call me emo. i hate that lable but if that's what people are going to use, i can't stop them and i'm not going to change myself to make them happy.

and what if something bad is happening in our lives that we can't control? and we listen to the music to take the pain away.

let me guess. your problem is that your mom is making you do chores when you want to edit your myspace?
