+1 yI hate guys that say sh*t like girls always go for the bad guy type
If you have enough about you, enough confidence in yourself these things aren't even a barrier.
The most common misconception is that because a guy is
nice
quiet
shy
thoughtful
sensitive
and can sit through marathons of sex in the city that girls should be flocking to them. They get annoyed about the so called bad, jerk guy who constantly beats them to the punch. However its more a matter of the confidence these people have which is the real factor of what draws hate from the nice guys. The jerk or bad guy has confidence in abundance, in himself, in his personality and in his goal to be able to capture what he wants.
Guys need to understand that however sophisticated the 21st century is the attraction with men and woman is simplistic as it is in the jungle.
Guys need to stop pitying themselves, nothing worse than seeing a question on here with some guy complaining about how he constantly gets knocked back or keeps losing out to the bad boy...I meaning moaning because you got beat to a girl by another guy is probably exactly the reason why that kinda thing repeatedly happens to those individuals. Instead of moving forward they just sit their and cry because the world isn't fair.

+1 ySo many people on this site are concerned with "bad boys". Who cares. Be a good guy and get the girl. It's really pretty easy. Can "good guys" not be charming? I don't think anyone realizes that yes they can and do. Instead of constantly bitching about all these "bad boys" get the girls! Get some. I'm really tired of reading about people's theories and justifications on why women like a certain type of man. It's not true 90% of the time. Have confidence. This is not a "bad boy" trait. It's universal and anyone can have it if they want.

I reality, being a so called "player" has its drawbacks. The smart girls see right through it. It doesn't matter how charming a man is, lots of women can see if he's just after sex. Players actually get turned down a lot more than people give them credit for. However it's about quantity and not quality for them.

+1 yMy boyfriend is the definition of a nice guy. He brings me home flowers for no reason. He cooks me dinner when I work late. He stays up late and talks to me about anything and everything. He does anything in his power to solve my problems and make me happy.

one guy I went out with said if I didn't have sex with him in the first week, he'd dump me; that guy called himself a 'nice guy'. he isn't, he's just a piece of sh*t.
nice guys are rare.20 Reply

Here is the perfect answer for all you ladies. A good man will treat you good but will not let you walk all over him. If you try to take advantage of his good will he will tell you that it ain't write. Then we can argue about it or you can see where you were wrong. Just like when we "get the girl" you want a little challenge. If once in the relationship they let you walk on him then there is no challenge and that's where the nice guys lose. Sometimes a man's gotta grab his package and say "this is how its gunna be. So its not that jerks get the girl its that winney little men don't get the girl and then say only jerks get the girl cause they are weak. Nuff said!

Good answer. :-)
+1 ywhile girls might prefer a nice guy, they notice and they are attracted to strong, confident, assertive, dominant guys who often treat women and less masculine guys like trash.
This is the pretty much the definition of being masculine. (look it up if you don't believe me)
The fact that the asker chose Light_Yagami's answer as the best answer says to me that she is attracted to masculine guys and can't help it. I'd hazzad a guess that she's been involved with a jerk before
Also in the poll I'd say that a fairly sizable portion of the girls are kidding themselves in to thinking their Boyfriend is a nice guy.10 ReplyI believe all guys have an innate sense of being both. How we express it, on the other hand, is entirely different. Even many guys who are players are that way as a result of having tried a serious relationship at one point, and the girl losing his trust. I know many guys (though I don't approve of their actions) that seemed they were genuine enough to commit and be nice, but the girl tore them apart and the guy resented it and stopped caring about "nice-ness"
I myself consider myself a nice guy with jerk-like tenancies; however, I joke around and any time I say something "mean" its out of fun and I never cross the lines or intend harm. She calls me a jerk every so often (out of good fun), but I can't help but smile when she does :)11 Reply- +1 y
I'm the same way. She still absolutely thinks I'm a great guy. It makes her laugh. But you're right. We're not all completely nice or completely mean.
+1 yThere have really only been 2 nice guys in my life. One would be my best friend & the other would be the guy I'm with. They're both great guys. Nice guys are sometimes hard to come by. Most of the guys I went to school with were jerks or major tools. I'm lucky to have such a nice guy to love me =)

+1 yHartmut said what I was thinking...
"No matter how d***ish a guy acts towards his girlfriend, if she's still with him, then she's not gonna say that he's a jerk. Otherwise, she'd have left already."
So for people who voted "B: 50/50", their situations are more likely to appear to be '25% nice, 75% not nice' to the outside observer.10 Reply Although I would love to say that my boyfriend is a nice guy, he isn't. Never romantic, never gives compliments. He's kinda just there. And when he's not just there, he's a mean person. Sad story. But I think guys who are not "nice" guys are the ones that girls go for, because we feel like we haven't completely won them over yet. Nice guys seem to be all in, which can scare me away (ha). Just my opinion.

Anonymous(36-45)+1 yWomen miss the point here. Assholes and jerks aren't mean to women's faces. They cheat on their girlfriends and rarely get caught, and are disrespectful to all women behind their backs. They are perfectly good at being two-faced and acting charming in front of women, in order to get them to have sex more quickly.
True players and assholes rarely date a woman for more than a few months tops. The women that do knowingly prefer these kinds of men prefer to have sex with them, but not to date them. But I will contend women do like assholes.
Because assholes don't care what anyone thinks about them, because they don't care about other people at all. Which is a definition of confidence.46 Reply- +1 y
Many guys don't even bother pretending to be nice anymore because they don't see the point. ShootingStar5 is trying to show this community of men that women really do care about how nice you are. She is trying to give guys out there a reason to be nice.
I think that many men don't have any idea of how to be a "good" man. Many turn selfishness into a value system. They throw their lives away and for what? - +1 y
So you're saying that guys who are assholes to his girl's face isn't a real asshole? lol Sure you're talking about a certain type of asshole, but there are still some guys out there who will be an outright jerk to their girlfriend. And there are girls who will stay with them.
Also, that's not confidence, that's arrogance. Confidence is simply believing in yourself, it has nothing to do with other people. - +1 y
Sedwar gets it! Thanks lol It wasn't my intention to try to get guys to be nicer though, not that I'd mind that either :)
Opinion Owner+1 y"Confidence is simply believing in yourself, it has nothing to do with other people."
That isn't true because most women dislike men like Dr. House or other egotistical loners. Women want men with social status, lots of friends and a position of leadership over other men.
Opinion Owner+1 yIt is not politic to say, but many young American women lack said judgment and are poor examples of what a wife and mother should be. They are dumb sexed-up tarts that sell themselves as sexual currency between equally weak-minded, imbecilic and slobbering "men". Real women recognize men of integrity and moral character, instead of sleeping with the vermin and rabble of society.
And yes, I do think I am better than most people.

Not necessarily. If I broke up with my current nice guy boyfriend right now, he would still be a nice guy.
There was a guy I once dated (and by that I meant went on three dates with). On the first date he was charming, on the second he seemed a little off, and by the third I could tell he was a full-blown jerk. Hence the end of the dates. - +1 y

Its a subjective opinion and is dependent on who you ask and what their connection is to this person. Nobody is completely "nice" or completely a "jerk".
After break-ups, a guy is usually called a jerk, because things didn't work out. Yet if you ask his family or friends what they think about him, you will get completely different perspectives and viewpoints. - +1 y

i agree with lost. there are nice guys outthere but its how we see them. my ex broke it off 3 weeks b4 wedding date and even a year after breaking up I'd still say he was a nice guy. actually I still do think so. I'm not dwelling on the past or anything I've moved on, but I'd still say he was nice

I like my boyfriend and the kind of person he is, that's what I usually go for, and I'm happy with that.
