- DeskFlyer, on 10/10/2007, -2/+428"A woman has a close male friend. This means that he is probably interested in her, which is why he hangs around so much. She sees him strictly as a friend. This always starts out with, you're a great guy, but I don't like you in that way. This is roughly the equivalent for the guy of going to a job interview and the company saying, You have a great resume, you have all the qualifications we are looking for, but we're not going to hire you. We will, however, use your resume as the basis for comparison for all other applicants. But, we're going to hire somebody who is far less qualified and is probably an alcoholic. And if he doesn't work out, we'll hire somebody else, but still not you. In fact, we will never hire you. But we will call you from time to time to complain about the person that we hired."

- VLGoldenJew, on 10/10/2007, -7/+200Women like nice guys... after they've gotten bored of being banged by all the "cool" guys. Then they want a meal ticket for a family. It's in the genetics!
- mlawrence, on 10/10/2007, -5/+170Or plain and simply because us women are ***** insane?
- siszam, on 10/10/2007, -13/+139Wrong. I married the nice, geeky guy and I've never regretted it.
- Phocion55, on 10/10/2007, -2/+110This one girl I was dating for awhile told me that I was "too nice". So when the opportunity arose to be a complete ass to her, I naturally took it.
Then she says "You are such a jerk".
Aurghhhhhhhhh...... - theblueprint, on 10/10/2007, -4/+108This is essentially the same with guys. When a girl is trying to set you up, and she says her friend is "really cool"... it means she's unattractive.
Men love "really cool" girls. The hot ones. - mhockey14221, on 10/10/2007, -4/+91[Citation Needed]
- pizzler, on 10/10/2007, -18/+104Women don't like nice guys because they are boring and predictable.
- wesamel, on 10/10/2007, -12/+92Lies.
- Chubakkaz, on 10/10/2007, -5/+67I hit my girlfriend when she told me I was too nice :[ it didn't work.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -3/+63Something else: confidence in yourself and being decent but not groveling to her only works if she's sane.
What I mean is, if she's messed up, normal psychology doesn't always apply. Like if she was abused, she might actually be stuck in a pattern of looking for abusive men. Daddy abused her, but she wants Daddy's approval. So she looks for other men like Daddy, who abuse her too. Or she's a complete self-centered bitch; she'll walk all over a normal guy, she might even look for guys she can push over and dominate. Or if she's weird, flaky, schizo. Or if she's immature enough that you'll get screwed over at whim. So what's important is to first scope her out and decide if she's sane enough to bother with. And then treat her right if she's capable of appreciating it and returning it. And remember: never put into a relationship too much more than you get out of it. If the balance isn't even or in your favor, forget it. You'll regret it soon enough. - cruzlee, on 10/10/2007, -1/+54That is so funny. Too bad it's also true.
- MagicCake, on 10/10/2007, -7/+52Bottom line: be nice, sure, but be strong and not a groveling pussy. That's the way to go.
- mattxb, on 10/10/2007, -4/+46Girls go through so many emotional mood swings that when it comes down to it the most secure and comforting thing for them when they are acting crazy is for a guy tell them its all in their head. Most women have a pandora's box of crazy ***** going on in their head, and "nice" guys make the mistake of opening it by being too complacent. I'm not saying you should ignore a girls feelings, but if you let a girls moods and feeling run the show then things will get intense and weird in a bad way fast. Being nice and being passive aren't always the same thing.
I think there is an element of people surrounding themselves with people who treat them the way they think they deserve to be treated (believing those people understand them the best). So women with low self esteem will think that a guy who worships the ground they stand on doesn't "get" who they really are as much as someone who treats them with disrespect. If you love someone more than they love themselves they will think you must be making a mistake. - havesometea, on 10/10/2007, -1/+40It is like the comedian Drew Hastings said "I don't want a girl with offbeat good looks, I want a girl with beatoff good looks."
- p0tent1al, on 10/10/2007, -7/+45Yes, because this article is inaccurate.
What you are saying never happens, I have seen FIRST HAND. I used to BE this guy. Always nice, always respectful, ALWAYS KIND. Women ARE NOT ATTRACTED TO THIS. What part of this article did you not understand? I have known many women in abusive relationships, and I was that nice guy they wish their boyfriends were like, but I was just not their type.
And no I'm not some weakling, and I'm definitely not insecure. I'm just a pretty respectful dude. I'm the type of man that will sit down and listen to what a female has to say. And that is what seals the deal.
It's a sad realization, but if you have been around women of different ages, different cultures, and different everything, you would have witnessed it first hand, just like I have. Doesn't matter. Black, White, Rich, Poor. RESULT? I'm not so nice anymore to women, with a positive effect. Why? Dunno. Go ask women, who the hell knows...
anyways overall, you really should of read the article. The last sentence sums up everything, especially what I just said up nicely.
"It’s counter-intuitve and it’s unpleasant, but we’re dealing with nature here. Don’t fight the rules; to do so is as pointless as picketing gravity or boycotting inertia.:" - CatalystGhost, on 10/10/2007, -3/+40Self-esteem-boost high five!
- mississippiman, on 10/10/2007, -0/+37she's also really "nice" and/or "sweet", and alot of fun!
- delrin500, on 10/10/2007, -5/+40Women just don't dig pussies... We are using the word "nice" for pussy. Women respond to a men who have manners but also has balls to disagree and to give her a hard ***** once in a while. You don't have to be a total ***** to get chicks you just have to act like MAN.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -5/+38Listen to them??? Dude, once they start talking they never shut up.
Wait until after three dates to even think about sex ... Brother, if I haven't thought about sex, there won't be three dates. - Endemoniada, on 10/10/2007, -9/+41I have a startling revelation for all of you:
ALL WOMEN ARE NOT IDENTICAL
Instead of complaining about women not wanting nice guys, start dating the women that do instead. I guarantee you, they're out there.
I've been in relationships with crazy women, arrogant and mean women and emotionally unstable women. Thankfully, I got out of all of them, and am now living together with a beautiful and absolutely sane woman for the last year and a half.
Stop feeling sorry for yourselves, get out and keep looking. - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+32Want answers? Here they are: If you're a nice guy, you can't voluntarily change. However, years of rejection WILL change you. Eventually, you'll not really give a crap whether a girl likes you or not. You'll realize that there are billions of them out there. With this realization comes attraction from the opposite sex. Female vanity will not allow them to accept that a guy is not interested.
- Username222, on 10/10/2007, -4/+35That is true... Pretty much after the girl has been "ridden more times than a racing horse" and can no longer stand to look at herself in the mirror and decides she wants a family... She will pretty much decide on finding nerd... That or a really successful drug dealer...
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -0/+30yeh great sense of humor too
- Ellipsys, on 10/10/2007, -5/+34I call *****. I'm a very nice, chivalric sort of guy. I've been told I'm charming, debonair etc... I also am naturally pretty nice. I don't mind listening to someone's problems, but I make it clear that I only can handle so much venting IF the problem in question is something that could be fixed if the person would do something about it. I bloody hate this sort of article. If you're nice, caring and compassionate to a woman and more or less "being yourself", if she doesn't appreciate that: Find another woman. These make it sound like women are the sole arbiter of if a relationship works. If she's bitchy, controlling or wants you to be something you're not comfortable with, leave her! If you're stuck in the "friend zone" think about telling her how you feel in a "I care about you, I want to be more than friends. Do you see that happening?" kind of way. If she says no, then you can tell her that you honestly can't stay in the friendship as it is because it either 1) hurts you too much to always be there for her and help her with her lovelife without being a part of it or 2) you simply don't want any more "just friends". There are girls that appreciate genuinely nice guys, but you may have to work to find them. Notice how I said genuinely. If you're just trying to be nice to get laid, then stop it. They will see right through it, because frankly you're probably not that good. If you're really a dick, go find one of those high drama emotional baggage machines. Being a nice guy only means taking ***** you don't deserve if you let it.
- RationalAntaxia, on 10/10/2007, -5/+34"Treat a girl like dirt, and she'll stick to you like mud."
- turmoil005, on 10/10/2007, -0/+26basically... yes
- rabidbob, on 10/10/2007, -3/+28Videotape.
(Or it didn't happen?) - seasleepy, on 10/10/2007, -0/+24.....Are you actually using Friends as an example of real-world relationships?
- gharding, on 10/10/2007, -2/+25That's what I came here to say. Women DO like nice guys, but all the "nice guys" that complain about girls not liking them ARE PUSSIES. Grow a backbone.
- EmberJGT, on 10/10/2007, -2/+25It got ripped off on The last comic standing. To quote my friend John "That show was worse than 9/11". I'm surprised Carlos didn't rip it off first tho.
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -7/+29Nah, women like to play the martyr "Boohoohoo, he treats me so badly"
Women like to think their pussies are magical and will change a lying, cheating bastard into a good guy.
Women like to lie.
Women like to communicate by answering "nothing" when asked "What's wrong?" when there is obviously something wrong. - Dunadan, on 10/10/2007, -3/+24Put me in the minority here, but I'd rather have a girl who was someone I liked because of what they were like not what they looked like. Sure being attractive is a big plus, but I'll be the awesome average looking girl over the hot not so awesome girl every time.
- smedrick, on 10/10/2007, -2/+23I wholeheartedly agree. "Nice guy" does not automatically equal "groveling pushover". It's entirely possible to treat women nice while having a strong sense of self pride and inner strength. Unfortunately, as you mentioned, this is a rarity in both sexes.
- RichOfTheJungle, on 10/10/2007, -2/+23The only positive experiences I've ever had with women is when my mom makes me sandwiches
- p0tent1al, on 10/10/2007, -2/+23That's not the point; Women are ALWAYS complaining about how they can't find nice guys. But when they do, they don't want them.
This reminds me of an episode of friends. I think Rachael (Jen Anniston) was trying to get (Bruce Willis) to be a little emotional, and she was complaining, this and that, and then he started to really open up to her. Then he started to be real emotional.
But she didn't like it, and one of the friends was like "Well you DID want him to open up" and she was like "yeah but......." and proceeded to ***** around the point.
They want you to be nice, but they REALLY don't, so in actuality they really don't know WHAT they want, that is the point of the article. - xtmno3, on 10/10/2007, -1/+22Not my quote, but in regards to women, pick two of the following:
attractive
sane
single - asdfasdf, on 10/10/2007, -8/+28Women like nice guys, but "nice" shouldn't be confused with being socially inept. It's all about confidence.
- offwithyourtv, on 10/10/2007, -3/+23I believe you. I'm engaged to a geeky nice guy myself. Of course it helps to NOT be one of the stereotypical kinds of women that Digg so eagerly bashes in every article about women.
- Jugalator, on 10/10/2007, -4/+23From my experiences, *generally speaking* women are more likely not like nice guys in the short term than in the long term. It's the latter kind that form the more spontaneous relationships and that may make it *appear* that they have an easier time to get into relationships. But if you measure the time they *are* in relationships, I dont' think there's a big difference. Most I know are nice guys in healthy relationships.
Actually this is kind of acknowledged if you ask a girl about it and she's being completely honest. I've heard all variants of the story, down to girls saying they definitely don't act like that but know many friends who do, and don't know why they do it. As with men, there are luckily all sorts of kinds. :-) But if you want a nice girl that like nice guys, it doen't help procrastinating on Digg. ;-) - Brodels, on 10/10/2007, -0/+17don't you need 3 people for that?
- KMye, on 10/10/2007, -1/+18But a lot of the time some of the craziest ones are some of the hottest ones...
- jawbreaker4fs, on 10/10/2007, -0/+17There's a fine line between "That was nice and unexpected" and "What the hell are you doing? We're at my parents' house"
- blaze4metal, on 10/10/2007, -0/+17the best one: "nice eyes." I've actually fallen for that one (I thought he said nice ass)
- inactive, on 10/10/2007, -5/+22That's why you gotta smack em around every once in a while, then she'll know you're a nice guy, but that you mean business too! Sean Connery for president.
- oneblackcitizen, on 10/10/2007, -3/+20As a former "nice guy" myself.
The problem is, women like a challenge. Nice guys usually make it too easy.
Women know I can be very "nice" but, any niceness a woman gets from me must be earned! It may be a privilege to be with her, but it's a privilege to be with me too, so I gotta know what is she bringing to the table. And being my "friend" doesn't count cause I've got plenty of those already. - GliTCH82, on 10/10/2007, -0/+17Wrong, women don't want to tell you that they're totally creeped out by how you're still hanging around after they gave you signs they're not interested. But because you're nice, they don't want to just blow you off.
- wisedude, on 10/10/2007, -12/+28fag
- strafefire, on 10/10/2007, -2/+18A nice guy to a women is like a fat chick to a dude!!!!
