7.12.09 Good guy Bad guy

Well, this isn't typically conversation material, but still thought provoking enough to occupy alot of space in my little head, besides a conversation I had recently, with quite an unexpected associate, without its riff raff and multicoloured mask, boiled down to this...
There are loads of guys we meet, day in day out... loads of friends who are guys.. there are the good guys, who even if they affect you couldn't and wouldn't harm you, aka the good guys, there are those whose actions affect you, but really don't give a damn about how its going to hit you, aka the bad guys... the ones who dont affect you at all..
But where do those guys lie, who seem to be good.. say they wouldnt ever hurt, make you believe it, don't hurt you atleast not intentionally, and still lie in the grey area of you never know what the intention was. Was it that simple, he din't mean it but could say it with a straight face (yeah, some people can actually be good actors) or is it deeper, much deeper, where in they actually have coincidentally felt that way, found the right things to say, actually been that vulnerable, and managed to kill you with their words.. and will never realise it?
I know the greatest hollywood blockbuster is made of the latter... it feeds all their chick flick content... hell its even every chicks dream guy.. well.. almost
But you even have the tv shows.. that feed on the first... yes.. those are the ones defined as bad guys by all of us....
Can we categorize them, as we meet them, relate them with the characters we have faced, on screen, in a book....
What parameters can we start on? Interactions, what they say with whom? What they say when they are with you.... the content? the tone? their reactions? their past???
Well.. as for now... I think the only one factor we can question irrespective of the other content is their honesty and integrity... the rest simply would fall into place...

For all (if any) of my gurl readers... feel free to crib about the ever so elusive ass that you just have not been able to figure...
For the guys... use this as food for thought...

More later..
