1. (Jerk) (4741↑, 979↓)
The kind of guy most girls ACTUALLY want when they say they want a [Nice Guy]. Jerks are selfish, manipulative bastards who see women as little more then sexual conquests to brag about to their buddies or mere objects that are there for their personal pleasure. As to ensure the post-sex breakup will be in their favor, Jerks often play the "sensative guy" early on so the girl will make most of the moves on HIM, and after he's done with her and dumps her for some other girl just like her, he can make it look like she's at fault for coming on too strong, and consequently she'll take him back if he chooses to return for seconds. Typically are/were [Frat Boy]s, [Jock]s, and [Prep]s in school.

1. A mean/heartless person. 2. More common: A guy who perfectly fits the gender stereotype, and is insensitive, controlling, and will treat women like sex objects. Though many women constantly complain about guys like that, most end up with one, because they didn't dig deeper and didn't try to see through the jerk's crap. Instead of going for a [nice guy] who will obviously be there for a girl, most girls choose what's right in front of them, a cold-hearted bastard who happens to look "macho", who is a big-time flirt and wears his penis on his sleeve.

63. (jerk) (20↑, 40↓)
A guy (normally) who is so offensive, rude, self centered, selfish, self serving, mean, insensitive, lacking is social skills, and clueless about what a unpleasant person he is to be around that once anyone else gets to know him, or his rep gets spread around, the closest thing he can get to sex, intimacy, pussy, ass, a kiss, a grope, the scent of perfume a lá femme -- or even another guy's dick for that matter -- is jerking off and imagining it. An exceptional jerk actually sees jerking as the best way to have sex because it's impossible for him to get sex from a woman (or even another dude). Some guys (who may have been the shit motherfuckers when they were young) never realize they are jerks even when they have greying scragly mpb (male pattern baldness), can't remember what their cock looks like because they can't see past their beer gut, and they need to pay for skanky sex with toothless hookers. The female equivalent would probably be the word "cunt." But both terms can be applied to either gender, often with greater effect and meaning. If a guy's a cunt, why would girls want to have sex with him (chicks like dick)? Fags especially want nothing to do with a cunt. A jerk can only dream of cunt. A girl who's "a dick" can't get guys or even lesbians.

Don't even say hello to him, he's a jerk. If he walks over, let's leave. You're such a jerk you can't even get a blowjob in a gay bath house. I'm such a jerk, I think my dick is the only thing that will ever love me. I dream of pussy. Queers don't even want to suck me off. I'm all alone.
