"God, you're right. Stop being a nice guy and become a real jerk. That's what the ladies want. Your life will be so much better. The bitterness in your heart will make everything sing with joy for you."

Please note the sarcasm in the above reply to the whining of "nice guys" everywhere. I'm extremely tired of hearing guys say they're tired of always being "the friend" because they're the "nice guy": that maybe they should become jerks so girls will like them better.

If you're guilty of saying this, read on. If you're not, read on anyways. Then you can impart this wisdom the next time you come across a pained mammal of the "nice guy" species.

If you're guilty:

First, let me smack you. Then, let me tell you that you're not alone. I've heard this all over the place and so often I'd like to next melt you all down and mold you into one uber big "nice guy" , so that I can reply to you all at once in hopes of ruining this phenomena that is obviously contributing to world suffering.

The reason for the quotation marks around "nice guy"is because the guys I hear this from label themselves this way. As if they're members of TNGC: The nice guy club. They wear the label on their sleeves, they put it all over their online profiles, they bring it up in conversations: "I'm a nice guy, right?" It is their banner and sometimes, it becomes so creepy you'd expect all of their possessions to be stamped "property of a nice guy"" and any girls they have managed to attract to be branded with the same.

*shivers

In my perceptions, I've noticed "nice guy" has become a catch all description for boring, DULL, DULL, DULL, pushover, whimpy, whiny, submissive, or needy... or dull.

If you're a member of the nice guy club and stop reading now, you're probably proving my point. Maybe truth hurts and you should suck it up. Maybe you should evaluate a few things about the way you approach women. Anything in your life that seems like a problem starts with YOU. In order to begin fixing it, you must be willing to face that fact.

Being nice does not get you laid.

I'm working on striking a balance. I tend to go from nice guy to "it puts the lotion on its skin" before the drinks reach the table.

Oh yeah... & girls, if you're always just the friend, it means you're a hideous swamp beast.

Guys - if you're always just the friend, it means you're ugly.

Oh yes, and toadd: I must have some sort of feelings for the person and I must feel as though they reciprocate the same feelings toward me. :-)

Great article. Nice is an excellent quality, but it must also be paired with fun, being interested in the same things as me, having the same moral values as me, having the same ideals as I do in all the important areas, etc... Just being nice on its own is simply not enough. :-)
