I got told last night my continual girl troubles are because I'm "too nice". I don't think I'm too nice, but then again, I'm crazy. What do you think?

After seeing your pic you gave me, I'd have to go with option #2.

What do you think? hehe, if I had a dollar for every time I've had someone tell me that exact same thing I'd be rich enough not to care that I'm not getting laid. There's no such thing as "too nice." It's not our fault that our culture makes women attracted to abusive idiots. _____________________

I got told last night my continual girl troubles are because I'm "too nice". I've always found that idea utterly ridiculous and kinda scary, personally. I prefer to like people I date, but I guess I'm in the minority these days ::rolls eyes:: _____________________

Could be worse... She coulda pulled out the "You're more like a... a sister to me" line.

I thought they were just because you were crazy.
Honestly, I am sick of men whining that they have realtionships because they are too nice. Man up! No one wants some freaking doormat. You can be a nice guy but be firm. Most people will walk all over someone if given the chance, you have to make people respect you. I personally can't respect a man that can't make decisions, can't stand up for himself, cries at the drop of the hat over dumb shit, will stay in a loveless relationship just because he can't man up and get out of it, and the list goes on. Anyway, Man Up! Or shut up. HTH |

*smacks Eboni* How do you like me now? I like guys who feel like they are entitled to have feelings like any human being and who aren't so brainwashed by society that they feel they would be betraying some huge honour code by crying. I know a guy who wouldn't cry at his father's funeral, (though he was clearly upset) but it was ok for him to go out that night, drink a lot, beat up another guy, and wind up nearly going to jail for drunk and disorderly (the cop knew him, though and that he'd had a rough time, so got him home to his wife). Why shouldn't he cry? It is a normal human reaction. I love nice guys. What I often encounter instead, though, are guys who pretend to be nice so they can get benefits and then turn out to be kinda creepy or self-obsessed (i.e. nice enough in manner, but before ya know it trying to cyber and then minimizing the screen whenever wifey walks in the room. ewww). Not that you're one of those, Taco. I would have no idea. _____________________

Nice guys frequently finish last BUT...
they finish with bigger and better packages! So.... Frankly, I'd recommend the turtle over the hare any day. Just saying. . _____________________

Personally I've never gone for that "bad boy" type. I like a guy who treats me with respect. If that's a nice guy, then I'm all for the nice guy.
That being said, there are those that are TOO nice. A guy who can't stand up for himself or ocassionally tell me I'm wrong when I actually am would be a huge turn-off for me. _____________________

Which is why I married Killian, because he makes me feel like the most beautiful woman in the world, even when I'm in a robe and fuzzy slippers. I think that "you're too nice for me argument" is bullshit. There should be a version of "He's Just Not That Into You" for guys. _____________________

My last girlfriend complained that I was "too accomodating." WTF? It was because she liked to play games. I remember one time after we'd met in DC to go to a concert together we both had a bit too much to drink. Before we parted ways I asked her if she was sure she was okay to drive home and told her I'd be happy to drive her and then take her back to pick up her car in the morning. She insisted she was fine and refused the ride. Then she got really pissed off at me for not insisting. Things like that make my blood boil. I think the "you're too nice" routine is often the result of exactly that kind of game playing where women try to provoke you into asserting yourself as the authority figure. Well sorry. I flatly refuse to play that game. I'm your boyfriend, not your parent.

I agree with all those that are saying "there's no such thing as too nice". There is such a thing as, "You're too spineless" and that's an entirely different ball of wax. Not saying that you're spineless, Taco. Not saying that you're too nice either. As a matter of fact I don't know what I'm saying. I never know what I'm saying. I think I'm talking out my arse most of the time. I think sometimes I should just shut up. Like now. *shuts up*
