lol! i almost always pick the fake nice guy! Even my current 41yo boyfriend is turning out to be fake. He tried tricking/manipulating me into marry him last month!
His house is being sold and he is moving out of state. I told him once he buys a new house, gets a new job, and we get the test results of his fertility surgery in March, i MIGHT move to join him and MIGHT marry him!
guess being 21yo i fall into the "get fooled" category.
Oooh Darling, that to me raises a few red flags and my sincere advice would be to seriously consider not staying in contact with that person.
I was in a similar situation with a 46 year old man, not sexual or romantic though... I saw him more as a mentor and friend, despite being aware that he was constantly manipulating other people to his own advantage I moved in with him and then later traveling with him and it was only while we were traveling by ourselves where it became more apparent that he was just using me.
An older guy trying to trick/manipulate you into marrying him (committing to him) while his own life isn't exactly solid says to me that you're being used for your innocence and youth.
I'm 23 Darling, your experience sounds close enough to mine that I really sincerely believe that you should break ties to this person.
All the best to you =]
In my twenty four years of experience with women might or maybe always means no. Even with my mom haha
I am sure that this is mostly true, however in my experience the majority of these women that are looking for the true nice guy are only interested in these men if they are young and hansom. You see I am all the things that you describe as what the true nice guy is and women are simply not interested in me, and the proof is that I have only had 1 girl friend at the age of 55. You see I am not the most hansom or youngest guy out there but I am also far from homely, and girls don't want to be with me. So I say that some nice guys not only finish last they don't finish at all.
It sure seems that way some times. But still, it's always something.
I should considered myself thankful that i don't have to deal with crazy dating society nowadays. I am married and believes in " Old School Dating" nothing like what i read in this article. My Opinion is that Girls and Women Today really need to wise up and understand that Bad guys should never be trusted, don't matter what they look like or their personality. I know nobody wants a pedophile, Bad guys are just as bad as a Pedophile. Thats being said In Old School dating bad guys are not a joking matter and deeply shunned. Thats may be the reason why nice/good guys don't even bother dating or hang out with women these days because Girls/women don't wise up and give in to Bad guy's lies and articles run by bad guys. Just my 2 cents.
couldn't have said it better... that is exactly the case...
I think this is kind of helpful but you know it's hard for nice guys to feel like they matter when they get pushed to the side for the new guy or the bad boy and when you tell the girl hey he isn't good or something like that you look like a hater or everyone ask what you wanna go out with her or something? Which honestly Pisses me off because I only try to look out for my friends but hey I'm the biggest flirt because I am nice and try complement so what do I know.
Personally i think guys friend themselves by not being outspoken, ill admit im a bit of a air head when it comes to people likeing me, my now boyfriend and the father of my son loved me for 8 years and i thought he was just being nice to me since he is a nice guy. Sometimes you gotta be straight up with a girl.
I thought this phrase meant something different. Like I've heard guys complain about this saying a girl they liked chose someone cool, dangerous, or mysterious over a gentleman who respected them. They complain because they see girls like nice guys only if they are also cool/hot/funny first. Personally, I can tell you not all girls are like that (ahem, ahem), but there are some, and I think that's what 'nice guys finish last' is trying to say.
I would also like to mention that anyone who calls himself a "nice guy" is probably note one. He can see himself as kind, good-natured, or any other "nice" trait, of course, but never have I heard a true, genial individual title themselves as "nice guy."
The most basic requirement is for a guy to be nice. Everyone should be nice. Being a "nice guy" isn't anything special. If anything the guys who label themselves as nice guys are usually the ones who are the opposite, and have to live up to the label they've given themselves.
Most basic requirement you say? lol a most basic requirement tons of girls dont even know what it means. The last time I've seen a genuinely honest nice girl i was still on first grade school haha
@SENSEI You have no idea what it means either, you dumb FUCK!
This is about the most BEAUTIFUL post I have ever read on GirlsAskGuys! I am VERY proud of you for being bold, but truthful! I hope DEARLY that Girls will see this as an excellent Life lesson BEFORE they make decisions on who they date and spend time with. I hope you find someone you look for!
At my age I don't know what women want anymore. I work have a good job. Don't drink, smoke, do drugs, have no kids. NO over hang on me. Be a good person to a woman have my 100% attention. Some women like that bad boy well I can be that too. It has scared the shit out of them when a woman see that in me. Well you want a bad boy or a good boy. Maybe some one can write me back and tell me what you women want out of a man. That will do his BEST to make her a happy girl. LOVE to make a woman shine.
Women these days have no clue as to what the hell they want. They say that they want this, and they want that, and when they get what they say they wanted, then they don't want it anymore. They have never known what they want, and they never will. It would be an advantage to us men to leave their arrogant asses to their own devices, and not let them drive us crazy with all of the unnecessary drama that they show on TV, and the women seem to emulate, and follow. Black women in particular are arrogant, want to be bossy, and think that they are supposed to rule the home. Men, I like to get laid as well as the next man, but if I have to compromise myself as a man to do so, then for me it is not worth it. No pussy has a higher value than what God gave me. Unless she is a woman that is trained in the spirit of God, she is a waste of time anyway.
men need to stop giving women everything they want and work on gender equality. unless women want to start giving men everything they want in return... that would be to easy wouldn't it.
I don't know if there's different definitions. But I've always wanted a good guy and the right one for me. It's like wheres my true love? My soulmate? The love of my life? I feel like I would be so much happier, feel so much better. It just fucking KILLS ME! Real nice guy. And I agree with traits and no drugs or partying. Sometimes I get really impatient and irritated and such because of it. And when Im depressed like now it's no help.
it would be a lot easier if the Society as whole Educate Girls and Women that bad guys are not to be trusted and deeply shunned. I know nobody likes a pedophile, Bad guys are just as bad as a Pedophile. What i see is a justification that it okay to be bad. I am old school and do not believe in today's Dating society.
I think it is all crazy. And it was different décadas ago with dating, marriage and everything.
Decades
Nice guys finish last. Women are crazy. The drool over 'bad boys' who treat them like crap, walk on them and break their hearts. I'm pretty sure the generation of today and going forward is hopeless. They don't know what real men are and seemingly, real men are a dying breed.
They enjoy the unpredictability and mainly the fact he's a bit of a dick but treating her 'amazing'
The nice guy is nice to everyone so it doesn't make em feel as special
Some girls told me that lol
How is it that you're 55 and still have no understanding of women?
You say this but girls and women go after assholes and bad boys their whole lives and when they get older they find what they want which is a nice guy. They want to have fun and all that. But complain there aren't nice guys. So why would a nice guy want to finish last. Lol I have to be an ass just so I can keep a woman's attention and it's so crazy because it's not me but I switch up to be nice here and there but when I am nice a girl wants to be my friend and keep me as a friend
nice guys dont finish last, pushovers finish last. asshole's dont finish first, people with a spine and lots of confidence finish first. unfortunately, more times than not, nice guys are usually pushovers and the highly confident guy is usually an asshole.
I'm not sure whether to believe this or not. Not saying you aren't right but I look for these nice type of women and I don't ever find them. And when I do find a woman, they're in a relationship. For me, it's nice to think about but I just can't see myself completely believing that there's a lot of nice girls or women out there. And if there are some out there, they're no where nearby lol
It takes time to find what you want. I also used to think that the kind of guy I want doesn't exist, but life has a weird way of taking you to the one.
True. It can be a little annoying to wait. Specifically when I'm not the best with patience. We'll just have to see what life throws at us
Nice guys live alone, can cook, iron their won shirts, don't necessarily have a football season ticket and can think for themselves. They are financially stable and have everything to lose. Unfortunately the system is against them being in a relationship unless he is really sure that she is a nice girl. That is the tricky part.
Nice guys = Overly Nice, becomes more clingy when he doesn't get what he wants.
False Confidence = Being a Jerk and overly dominant, doesn't care about the women's values. Becomes angry when he doesn't get what he wants.
True Confidence = A nice balance between the two. Respecting your own values and the values of the woman. Being nice but also knows when to back off and move on.
I can say that most women want the nice house and the nice car, and if you are the "nice guy" and do not have those you are just out of luck. I agree the woman's age has a lot to do with it, but anymore I am finding that they just go back to the same old men time and again expecting a different result. I think most women would pass up a nice guy to go after a jerk for nice things instead of having a meaningful realtionship.
yeah, sure believe in fairy tales? im sitting her overthinking murder and suicide because some low life throw me into a depression and rage i can't get out. i need and want retribution. nice guys do finish last and get turned into bitter , emotionless killers by BITCHES!!!
Then turn into a murderer just because a girl does not know your worth. It's insane. We girls go through equal heart breaks but really, you guys think that the main reason you can't date is because you are nice. LAME REASON. Have you eber thought about connection that is imprtant in relationships? Many of us understand that connection when we grow up and hence go through several heartbreaks.
Actually, they don't. The people saying they turned into a killer because, a women wouldn't date them probably had a personality flaw to begin with and the women saw it and did not want to date them. In relationships, I'm the nice girl, but not stupid. I have been cheated on by a long term bf with a girl who was supposed to be MY friend, I have been physically abused, I've been lied to, I have had a guy not date me only because I am mixed... and guess what after all of those things, I am still the same nice person in relationships. You don't turn into something you're not just because, you've been rejected. You've always been that person, you've just never showed your true colors. You have to smart enough to get away from who ever it is and realize that if they did something bad to you or rejected you, they weren't the person for you anyway.
what makes you think i wasn't dating her, this bitch was the mother of our child for 6 weeks, till she miscarried it. if she treats me and our child as a disposable thing, i will treat her the same way, an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth. thats the way life is like...
I think something different.
I think, how atractive is a guy to women, has nothing at all to do with whether the guy is nice or a jerk, but has more to do with whether your personality is interesting, charming and fun, or not.
I think niceness doesn't either add or substract.
I think an atractive nice guy will have a lot of success, while an unatractive nice guy, will be miserable.
Likewise, I think an atractive jerk will have a lot of success with women, while an unatractive jerk (my case) will be miserable.
