I agree with you completely. The problem is, there are not enough women who want nice guys for who they are. So I guess they view it as "I have to become an ahole to at least get a shot at a woman" but it will of course be the wrong kind of woman.. But the odds are not in guys' favor these days.

 

What do you care, Steve? You've openly admitted to hating women, you have even advocated violence against women in this thread. You're the last person who could ever be called a "nice guy" and your opinions on women would suggest you have absolutely no desire to associate with them anyway.

A women will never like a full blown jerk.

You have to be "nice" at times, "arrogant" at times, and "confident" at times. Women like nice guys who are confident which just so happens to be one of the characteristics of a "jerk." If your mean to a girl 24/7, it will not win her over.

Here's something else about self-proclaimed "nice guys" -- a lot of them only ever think of themselves. All you hear from them is how they really want a girlfriend, but they can't find one because women love jerks or whatever. A real nice guy would consider others occasionally, particularly those less fortunate than themselves. They would appreciate the things they have in life and would devote time to helping others rather than whining about their single status.

i guess i agree w/ that ya gotta be the "sweet, sensitive guy" @ times. but it's a dangerous balance to gauge. the minute you come off as a "nice guy" you will be dumped

Can I ask how old you are really? I'm not trying to be mean or anything but a few times I've gotten a real sense that you might be too young for this site. The most recent moment was when you perceived taking pictures of river otters to worms or grubs. That and this fixation on nice guy vs jerk......are you in middle school or as old as high school yet? Way too young to actually be jaded.

Something just feels staged or forced with your posts. :confused:

Another thing is you're not nice if you have to rely on online articles, followed everything people tell you on a dating forum (word for word) and own a book on how to attract us girls...

That's like telling a deer hunter how to catch rabbits. Keep wasting time on sounding desperate and you'll attract nothing but flies....

Being mean to a girl is not gonna win her over. If you show her you are "confident" and "arrogant" at times you'll will be perceived as a "jerk," and yes, you will attract women, but if you can't be nice and treat them well then they won't stick around. You need to find the balance. NEVER say you're a nice guy or that you did something nice for a women - rid yourself of that cliche term.

This article is interesting. :)

 

Most of that article was nice guy bashing bull. A doormat is not a nice guy, he's a doormat. A nice guy is not someone who is nice just to get something they want. How is that a nice person? I'll never understand why people are so obsessed with labeling nice guys as sissy's, pushovers, wimps, doormats, with other motives. This crap gets so old :(.

Only if you're in the hit it and quit it game. Beyond that, if you're honestly looking for a viable relationship, games detract from trust and respect, which makes it impossible for love to happen.

For a 51 year old, that's not a great track record for relationships, nvm viable relatonships. Two years is pretty short.
