Douche-y guys

Oh the things that the "Recommended For You" box on YouTube holds.
And I apologize for the spontaneity of this blog.
I also apologize for posting too much. I will tone it down a bit, I promise.

I came across this video. Yeah the song kind of sucks and she doesn't have a very strong or interesting voice. BUT that's not the point. The music video brings up something that I've been pondering for the past few months.

In the video, the main guy is (obviously) a douche bag. Rolling his eyes when his girl can't bowl, checking out other girls when she isn't looking, and (as shown in flashback scenes) he plays this girl the same way he played the singer girl.

This isn't the only instance of douche-y guy portrayals in our media today. And I honestly haven't really come across a guy who was that douche-y (and I apologize for my continued use of this word, which isn't even a word). But I still have to wonder this: What happens to these guys down the road?

Does this so-called "douche bag" eventually grow up, wisen up, and move on with his life? Or does he simply go from girl to girl, hoping that the girl can tolerate his ways long enough until he loses interest?

That then brings up the question: Can people change? I honestly do not know. Sure, you can change your hair color, change the way you talk, change your views on certain issues, but can you, and I mean the essential core of you, change? Me being someone who can always find the good in people, I'd really like to think that it's possible. But as I move along further into my life, I find it hard to change the unsatisfactory things about myself. And I don't mean the shallow things like looks or whatnot, I mean things like my feelings and mindset.

So can I change? Can the douche-y guys change? Or are we forced to just keep on loving them and accept them for who they are? Everybody needs somebody. Even the douche bags. Even though we wish they could change. Even though we wish WE could change them.
