How is it possible to fall in love with a man who you know is dead? Some argue that the attraction a woman may feel to a serial killer is because she sees him as a small child who needs her motherly love. Therefore, it is not rare to create a love relationship based on the need for care and protection.
Another point of view is that these women try to add some drama to their lives. So they seek the adventure and risk that such a relationship promises, things that they, paradoxically, think are least likely to happen to themselves. Many of the killers are thought to be attractive to some women because they have the power to manipulate them just like their victims.
It is not rare, too, that there are women who try to be heroines in the eyes of these men, to make them change and bring out their good sides. Let's also not forget Hubristophilia syndrome or Bonnie and Clyde syndrome. Hubristophilia refers to women who are attracted to criminals and thugs, who are considered the perfect partner.
They send them love messages because they believe that despite their terrible crimes, they will be different with them. Women think that these men will never harm them, but "get them", see behind their ugly face and recognize their motives. /TAR/
