+1 yWell it sounds like the animalistic part of your brain likes bad boys/assholes. The good news is that we humans can actually control and often outthink the more primitive part of your brain. I know its hard by try to think of specifics of why these assholes get your motor running and nice guys don't.
Also try getting into a relationship with a nice guy. Talk to him about it. Many nice guys instinctively treat women they way they want to be treated which is nice. They have no idea that there are women out there who like being treated with cold and emotionless manners.
If he is a nice guy he might be willing to play along and treat you like that. Just remember it won't be like that 24/7 so when he starts to behave with emotion and that voice inside you says "Run for the hills" you need to stop it and say, "No!" this is the man I love and I'm not leaving him over something so stupid.
I don't think there is anything too wrong with you or women like you. Think of it as if you had some kind of kink. Nothing horrible just a little unorthodox, let's say you liked it on the rough side in bed. Now if your man didn't automatically do that in bed would you just leave him, or would you talk about it? Would you say I love you but it really gets my motor running if you are a little rough in bed? Or would you just assume he is a boring nice guy and leave? Chances are in both instances he will be willing to do it because he loves you, and if not, well I guess its better you find out now because its a deal breaker, right?
Just like in the bedroom in the other aspects of the relationship communication is key. Try finding a nice guy you know is good for you, and after a little while sit him down and talk to him about what you like. I think many nice guys will be willing to treat you like you want if you are willing to put up with their occasional "nice guyness."00 Reply

I use to be this kind of "nice guy” when I was younger. It’s because a"nice guy” like that is a pushover who’s too afraid of offending you or saying something that you won’t agree with, and following you around like puppy dog because he is afraid someone else will snatch you up lacks confidence and is insecure. that eventually will get boring and annoying for any women. Don’t sell yourself short though and get with a guy that isn’t going to treat you with respect and dignity. You need to hold yourself to higher standards and not be afraid to wait for what you deserve instead of what is just available.

+1 yI had a long distance relationship with a guy, who was very sweet.
After about a year I broke it off, because I could not stand him always catering to me. He was always funny, polite, respectful, BUT he was also a doormat.
He always agreed with me about EVERYTHING. It's like he didn't have his own persona, his own thoughts. Everything was done to please my every desire and I could not stand being made an idol of. Maybe god is cool with having millions worship him all the time, but I found it tedious as fuck.
Some men need to understand that if you put a woman on a pedestal and be her yes man 24/7, she will get bored.
We don't want to be worshipped, we want to interact with you on the same level.00 Reply
There could be many reasons:
1. You think that you don't deserve someone that is nice and loves you.
2. You are afraid of commitment
3. You are naturally dragged towards bad boys.
4. You aren't confident enough to think that you can keep a guy that nice next to you.
I could think in more but you know yourself better, now that you know that you have that problem try to look deep and find what's causing it. It happened the same thing to me some years ago and it was because I didn't love myself so I couldnt believe in someone loving me or being nice at me, I worked on it and now I think and feel differently. Hope you can work this out, remember that we always get the love tha we think that we deserve00 Reply
There needs to be a balance for me. He needs to treat me right yet be a man. Sometimes men think arrogance and cockiness are "manly" traits.
The saying "a lady in public and a freak in the bedroom" works in reverse as well. I like a gentleman in public and a tiger in the bedroom. I like a man who is kind and considerate but knows how to rein me in from time to time. Too nice can be a turn off if he is a pushover, but there is a huge difference between genuinely kind and a door mat. It's a hard balance to achieve, and a hard one to find.10 Reply
+1 yBecause you're not used to having guys be nice to you. I can be that way sometimes too. I mean if a guy is coming on too strong that just makes me feel so uncomfortable but if he's nice just try to relax a little... I mean never settle for any less than you deserve, js!!

Anonymous(30-35)+1 yIt's because you care more about the relationship than the people. The emotionless guy seems like an amusement park. He's a roller coaster and a whirlwind. It's unpredictable and exciting. Which at first is fun. Then you get to know the person and you realize that this roller chaser is starting to hurt your head and your tired and want to get off but you can't change the roller coaster you can only wait to exit. The nice guy is like the forest. You walk out there and there's nothing just trees. It's nice at first but eventually you want to do stuff. You want excitement but all you can see is boring trees. The reasons I'm making this metaphor is to illustrate that these men as you've described them aren't people to you. They're situations. Dating situations. They're settings for your dating life. But maybe if you slightly change the way you look at them you'll feel differently. Why is he a nice guy? Is he like this because he was raised to treat women this way? Did he grow up thinking that giving a girl nice things is the easiest way to sleep with her? Or is he just genuinely a nice person that likes doing nice stuff? Is the emotionless guy really emotionless or just a manipulator? Is he really a nice guy who's hurt? Why are these men like this? Because the nice guy only exists in your head. The guys your dating aren't emotionless assholes or nice guys they're people that at this particular time are this particular way. You're the one taking those few actions and turning them into archetypes of men then putting them into categories of men you'd date. If you stop seeing the guy as a nice guy or bad boy and say this guy was a jerk to me this one time or the last eight times and ask why to learn about him you'll understand he's not an emotionless guy. He's Charlie or Trey or Micheal. He's not your potential boyfriend or husband he's a unique individual with no ties to you whatsoever. And maybe if you find each other interesting you can go ride roller coasters together.

Anonymous(36-45)+1 yThere isn't necessarily anything wrong with you. You are probably attracted to masculine males that don't put up with your nonsense, should you have it.
Society has seemingly brainwashed us to believe that seeking assertive males means females are self-destructive, when in reality that's how evolution has programmed you to be.
You want a guy with the capacity to lead. You want a guy with the capacity to protect you. You want a guy with a brain and confidence.
Unfortunately nowadays those guys are few and far between because it's difficult to be selfless and strong at the same time not to mention guys like that are typically lambasted as mysognists by radical feminists. So you're forced to settle for strong guys that are lacking in character or nice guys without a backbone.
Fortunately, out of the fires of conflict brought about by the radical naysayers trying to burn out the powerful male... he will rise again resilient to their lies, evolved into something even more than before.
The bottom line is that if you act the part, of being a female, you won't have to find guys like that. They will find you because that is in their nature just as much as it is in yours. You just have to make yourself available.01 Reply
Opinion Owner+1 yGranted you could seek them out as well and make your intentions clear. It might save you time.
While the asked said she isn't into nice guys , I see the nice guys being portrayed as a limp decked wuss boy. What is the perception that nixes guys at incapable of defending then selve or their SO? I consider myself a fairly nice guy until given reason to be diffrent , then I am very capable of becoming a mid evil MF would have no problem in doing so to defend my lady. Door mat , while a lot of nice guys will let their woman use them as a foot stool that's in part to low self esteem on his part , and if he wishes to keep said woman he should go to wal mart and buy her a foot prop and bring it in and prop her feet up nicely and get her a nice cold drink then excuse himself to go grow a pair !!
00 ReplyWell I think you answered your own question, because they're boring. I've been told I'm boring many times and am also considered one of those nice guys. You have a fetish for not nice guys. They are probably interesting to you where nicer gentleman are bland. It's not a bad thing, though I think you may not be very happy in the end. Because if not-nice is what you want, that is what you will get. But we can't help it. We want what we want. If you're just not interested in a gentleman, you're not going to love him, and he's going to end up leaving you anyway. So it's actually good you don't lead them on. So are you doomed to marrying an asshole? Not necessarily. You might change your taste in men later, but, ... in all sincerity, that doesn't usually happen.

+1 ySometimes guys and girls can be so nice that it is just too overwhelming. Like they need to suck up all the time!
If you are good looking woman, they may feel they have to! Some guys are excessive bc they think that's what you want or they think they have to bc you may choose someone else over them if they don't give you enough attention. A good majority of woman are relatively needy (not a bad thing we all crave some attention), some guys feel they need to fill that void on a constant basis.
If you are not needy then it may come off as too much... if a guy is doing that to you... sit him down and talk about it... he may be relieved?00 Reply

Okay thanks for the details, nope I know your type. It's because the nice guy makes you feel like it's you who has to make moves and you don't like that because it leaves you open to be at fault or to be blamed when you and, but not just you, there are other women, like your man to be in control and at fault. So yeah I'm that good. Explain this to your nice guy, and watch him ravage over your body like a bad boy, and take all your feelings of regret. I would do it for you and and wouldn't care like a priest cleansing sins, but I suspect I don't live anywhere close to you. Your welcome, just open the lines of communication.

+1 yUnless you make effort to change your behavior, you will persist this way right up until you have your first child. If the father of that child is enough of an asshole so as to threaten the safety and well being of the child, the nice guy will start to look pretty good. Classic cuckold behavior.
20 ReplyIt's understable to me why a man who's a doormat might be a turnoff for you.
Being attracted to men that are very cold and emotionless toward you, that's the real problem. How can you have a fulfilling relationship like that? Do you think that your desire for these very cold, emotionless men is indicative of your own self-worth?10 Reply

+1 yi have the same problem but ill tell you its because i like my space and nice guys tend to be a little more clingy and try to cater too much. when someone asks if i need help with everything i get kinda annoyed, if i need help ill ask thats just the way i am. so maybe its that guys who dont show as much emotion tend to give us more space.

+1 yI think the thing is that you love the feeling of chasing someone, once they go after you you loose interest and become bored because you like how it feels to keep trying to please someone who is mean to you, you like the way it feels to try to get there praise, and once the nice guys give it to you the feeling ends like they've ruined the chase, for approval.
10 ReplyYes your are doomed if you stay the way you are. Grow up and appreciate what you can get and you will be happy. Also why are nice guys boring? Many nice guys are quite adventurous. You may have some underlying psychological issues that need to be dealt with.
00 ReplyLmfao me too I was so in love with my boyfriend until he loved me back-then nothing. I think it's a disappointment thing. Like when you like someone and it's kind of one sided they're like this idolized version of them- but when it's mutual it's less "perfect"
00 Reply
+1 yHmm.. maybe you become suspicious of their motives, questioning why they are too good to you.
I can be the same way (If I'm not very much into a guy that likes me), but if I really like a guy , I would be glad they were nice to me, especially If they are not usually overly nice to others..00 Reply
+1 yIt could be because you're wanting a thrill, guys who tend to be cold and emotionless you automatically think thats a shell and you want to get in, they are some what fascinating, as for guys who like you too much, it could just because you're not use to the attention, or even too USE to it and you like the challenge. You're not doomed for life, but perhaps you just have to sit back and think what is it that you want!
00 ReplyBecause women are stupid when it comes to choosing a partner a good portion of the time. You pick the douche, douche is a douche to you, you complain about the douche, you can't leave the douche because you love him some how, douche cheats on you, you try to fix the douches wrong, douche gets you pregnant, now douche is stuck with you, and now you have a terrible future with the douche.

Anonymous(36-45)+1 yThe problem is you have certain standards for men. I'm guessing you want a guy that doesn't want to give much attention to you because you don't want be overwhelmed by his feelings towards you. You feel bored when a guy shows too much kindness, having maybe no challenge for you in a relationship. I think you want a relationship to be somehow challenging to keep you on your toes. Probably an ideal person you want to be with is the type that balances between nice (not too much) and jerk (not too much) making the person be challenging for you to figure how he may feel towards you but somehow cares in some way by not expressing which could be rare.

Not all nice guys are boring though, not all do all that crap, some are fun and stuff and treat you well while still giving you space. Just nice guys who aren't people pleasers and who aren't so desperate to make a girl happy are more rare than a normal guy who treats you good.00 Reply
