The Lost Puppy Effect

A type of attitude, behavior or personality exhibited in somewhat attractive men and women that causes them to come across as sad, lonely and weak. In some way or another, these people find relationships in which their lover finds their behavior cute or charming.

Often times, these relationships are short-lived due to the partner of the lost puppy realizing their lover is a total pussy.

As well as this, victims of the lost puppy effect are often unaware that they come across like this.

Michael got into another relationship! How?

Don't worry bro, it'll be over in a month.

How do you know?

Michael suffers from The Lost Puppy Effect.

Don't be like Michael.
