Should nice guys just give up already? (Page 2)

Anonymous · 2014-08-12T16:04:22Z

This has been bothering me for a while now, but a post that I saw the other day finally made me put the question out there. The post that I saw stated that nice guys were a turn off. Unfortunately, I've seen comments like that before, too, often enough that it concerns me. I'm not talking about "nice guys" in the sense that all they do is whine about the friend zone, or have self confidence issues, but rather men who genuinely respect women and are seeking a fulfilling relationship. Men who are actually nice to women. There seems to be a general opinion that those nice guys are doomed to be alone for the rest of their lives, because nobody wants a "nice guy". My question is, then, whether those nice guys should just become bitter assholes that treat women like crap? It seems to me that if women don't want a "nice guy", then they're saying they want an asshole. Other than that, what's left? Some (not all) women complain that men are rapists and mysoginists, and boys need to be taught to respect women. Yet, when those same women meet a guy who does respect them, they label him a "nice guy" and want nothing to do with him. What the hell? For the record, I am not asking for me, as I have a girlfriend, and we're very happy together. I just don't get the contradictory messages out there concerning nice guys. Anyone have any thoughts?

How I understand it is that nice guys are too nice and passive. what women want is men who are nice in the classic sense, not passive doormats.

They say nice guys finish last. Not true. They never finish at all.

It depends on the woman. Self-loathing misogynistic women do want to be treated like shit. Non-misogynistic women want to be treated nicely.
