Guys: do you like "playful" girls?

As in, girls who have a good sense of humour and are quite laid-back and bubbly about things. Not overly talkative, or those who'll tease you all the time, but someone who's bright and optimistic whilst still being straightforward and down to earth and realistic. I don't always get along with people who are snide and sarcastic and moan about everything. I'm like that with everyone and people seem to either love it or hate it - I either click really well with other girls or we end up disliking each other (so I have a lot of close female friends and also a few enemies), and guys seem a bit taken aback by my laid-back attitude. I take a lot of care of my appearance (without sounding stuck-up) so it's like they almost expect me to be up myself, and when they find out I'm not a lot of guys either start treating me worse or obviously trying to get me to sleep with them in the hope I'll be an easy ride. I do take stuff seriously when need be - I grew up in a pretty toxic and abusive household, which shocks close friends when I tell them about it as they think I come across as the complete opposite kind of person. If anything, though, having been in that environment has only made me realise I don't deserve to be unhappy for the rest of my life. I have a really ruthless, bitchy side to me, but I only use it when others mistreat me. Unfortunately, though, sometimes both guys and girls seem to see me as a "soft touch" because of my laid-back attitude, and start putting me down as a result, which means I have to treat them worse to avoid getting bullied. Opinions?
