Where do you find these nice guys??? I dont know anyindifferent
:wink: YOU have never met me yet,lolbigsmile lol

BUT,,then again,,YOUR internal thoughts and expectations of
"THE" nice guy, could still be turned as to also seeing or not seeing THAT man as someone you would WANT TO DATE..
Hair,race,size,looks,age,habits,jesters,sense of humor,
teeth, eyes, ect??

So being a nice gentlemen always, these other traits might KEEP you from REALLY seeing HIM....:cry: Truth...:heart:

they went back to mars? laugh
nice guys are a figment of the imagination, a mirage laugh


I know ONE nice guy... and here is why he is nice...

He doesn't b*tch and whine because the women he is attracted to isn't attracted to him back.

He pays for lunch/dinner with no expectations in return.

He gives compliments freely and does not expect anything for them.

HE DOESN'T B*TCH AND WHINE ABOUT BEING A NICE GUY.

HE ALSO DOESN'T CLAIM TO BE A NICE GUY.

Nice guys don't label themselves as nice guys... they accept themselves for who they are, they know their station in life.

They go to the ends of the earth for their friends, family and children...and don't comprimise themselves or others to do it.






awwwwww.....thank you......laugh laugh
No label here.......just an average ahole....laugh noway

Ever see the famous grapefruit to the face scene w/James Cagney? Picture me with a bunch of grapes instead!
In my first post, I was being facetious/sarcastic.
This time, I'm just laughing my arse off. At you!

This is 21st century America, hun. Not 19th century Europe. People don't have stations in life or society any more! To think that they still do is an insult to every person who worked so hard over the last century to ensure that we all had equal rights.
Get with the times, girl!

Simple really, the nice guys were too nice. They were more a burden than a positive note, like a wall clinger that was always clinging to a specific person. Made happiness out of that person, that person was the number one person in their life...fail.

I'm not here to down the nice guy persona, but in all actuality most nice guys were more of a burden. Think about it: If constantly you had someone telling you positive things, always hanging around you and giving positive feedback you would either A: Take it with grace, and learn down the road that only the one person thought that way of you; or B: Leave it be as a simple nice comment made by one guy time after time again, annoyance. Nice guys are good, I see myself as a nice guy but have since given up the nice guy direction of telling people constantly the positive aspects about them not because I don't truly believe in these positive aspects but moreso because I may be the only one that see's them thus putting someone in a place where they are not at all comfortable being.
True! You keep visilualizing a person in a place they don't see themselve's. It's like being a Bible thumper.

Well dear, station in life does not mean "social station" it refers to who you are as a person. You make your own stations in life that have nothing to do with race, creed, color, religion or financial background.

It has to do with who you are and how you accept that.

If you're not happy with who you are or what catagory you fit in...then change it.

ie...if you don't like the nice guy roll...then don't play it anymore.

But what if I AM happy with who I am but don't into any category?
Honestly Lily, what is this obsession that you seem to have with continually wanting to pigeonhole people into categories, stations, classes, etcetera, ad nauseum?

I personally don't really believe in doing these things to people because it is my belief that it demeans us all and is a throwback to a less enlightened time.

People are people and each person is an individual, just like you are. Would you like to be classified, categorized, and told to act according your station in life?
I sure wouldn't. Just try to do it to me and watch the fur fly!

And with that, I'm getting off, this is my station coming up.

No, you really don't understand what I am saying obviously...

I am letting people put themselves into catagories for THEMSELVES.

But for all the ones that put themselves into the "nice guy" catagories then complain about it...GIVE ME A BREAK.

That would be like me saying I'm a "girl next door" type then complainging that no one wants the "girl next door"

See how none of that makes sense?

And FYI "Dear", I have never been a nice guy, I'm just me. If you got that impression simply because I posted on this thread, then you obviously got the wrong impression.
And you'd better not gainsay me or contradict me, cause I still have some grapes left!

I never called or said you were anything, infact until you addressed me, you were of no consequence to me at all. Good or Bad.

My statements were general not specific to you...EVER.

Might be the writing style that is contributing to the misunderstanding, too. When responding to someone's specific post and you want to make a general comment, try using "When people..." instead of "When you". It really makes all the difference, trust me.

Well, you're the FIRST person to complain about my writing style, I usually get commended on my through and concise manner in which I write.... So my apologies if YOU didn't understand what I was trying to say here.
