I don’t want to give any details, but holy shit, one of the mildest-mannered and good-natured people I know is with a roaring bitch.
And the funny thing is that she said to us, on more than one occasion, “you know everyone (his friends, my family & friends) thinks he’s super nice, but he’s really mean and he only shows that side of him to me”
Of course, the plural of anecdote is not data, but I have seen this sort of pattern before.
Questions for you guys:
[ul]
[li]Is this common, in your experience?[/li][li]Is the converse also common (nice girls ending up with roaring jerks)? I assume yes.[/li][li]Is there a name for her condition, regarding the fact that she thinks the guy is a “master at deceiving everyone in the world into thinking that he is super nice, when in fact he is mean and only exhibits that trait when only she is around”?[/li][/ul]
