"  a href=&amp;quot;http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2012-12/uc-dog121912.php&amp;quot;&amp;gt; New research gives us another reason not to get involved with an insecure dude: He may be totally sexist.  After surveying more than 400 heterosexual men to feel out their attachment styles, views on romance, and tendency to be sexist, researchers found that being insecure can give guys conflicted views about women. And that could then lead men to adopt some not-so-female-friendly attitudes. Which, of course, can strongly affect their relationships.  According to the study&amp;#039;s results, men who are insecure about their relationships tend to go back and forth between being chivalrous toward their partners\u2014thinking women are needy and fragile\u2014and being hostile toward their partners\u2014thinking women are trying to control them. Sounds like fun. Not.  Just add this info to the list of why dating an insecure dude really sucks: Unconfident guys tend to overcompensate by being controlling and narcissistic at times, then needy and apprehensive at others. And, if this new research is any indication, they may treat you like crap, too. No thank you.  Want more from Natasha? Follow her on Twitter or find her on Facebook.
