Nice guys finish last....







...Wow.......that actually hurt a little bit reading that....I can honestly say I've done most of those things.

I want to vote that the word "nice" be removed from the dictionary. I mean "ain't" got into it.... let's remove actual words then....

Let's replace it with chivalry

Knowing what you want, and sticking to it, doesn't necessarily mean a person isn't "nice." It just means he won't easily be tricked into something outside his designated parameters.

I went for years and years going from one 90-day revolving-door relationship into another -- and that worked fine, for awhile.

But there was a point when it occurred to me that there might be something more meaningful, more substantial, out there. And I spent a lot of time looking for that.

And now I've come to realize that there's no such thing -- for me, anyway. I would have been better off just doing the short-term thing, because that's what worked for me before.

Doesn't mean I can't be "nice." Just means I'm realistic.

Lexy, if I ever wanted to insult you in the most pedestrian way I can imagine, I'd call you nice.

Folks, nice doesn't mean nice. Doesn't the term "nice" mean too much to even use accurately?

I don't want a fvcking nice guy. I want a smart, funny, empathetic, considerate, honest, articulate, witty, diligent, magnanimous, independent, etc. guy. You get the point. I hope.

... most nice guys don't even start

Whew......I'm glad I'm an asshole.

There ya go!!!! GOOD idea!!! I would like to think I'm all that and more too!!!

But it takes time to find all those things out.

No, not really.

I'm just going keep on fishing, keeping my hart on a hook for bait.

At least the view is nice

No comment. This repetitive "Nice guy" bullsh!t is giving me a headache. Want a nice guy? Treat him like a nice guy. Sh!t on him constantly and he will be "Gone guy".

There is a blandness to it, an ineffectual nebulousness that defines itself simply by being so ethereal. What does it really mean? Pleasant, good? But you could say that of a Hostess Twinkie.



Or too little, if one focuses on the sheer vacuousness.



And here we come to (as Frank Zappa would have called it) the crux of the biscuit. I can honestly say I am all of those things, and maybe a few others as well. Ask anyone who knows me and they will tell you the same.

But, in the most practical of practical senses, it means absolutely nothing.

Lexy...

It's mine Lilith.

But you can find it in the badges with Mingle2: http://mingle2.com/welcome/badges

I don't think of myself as a nice guy but I do believe & follow most of what the OP wrote.....

then again I don't think I've finished last....i just haven't found that 'forever' right one.....but I don't want to settle either....

I want the woman to 'get me'.....and that isn't as easy as I used to think.....but, i don't hide so its out there ladies......

my question to the ladies, "What are you doing to keep your guy?"

I know where all the nice guys are! After 5 nice guy threads in 24 hours, they are all hiding from sociopsychotic desperate women looking for them!

Phone numbers, LHB, I need phone numbers....

Are there really threads for topics other than nice guys?

Lex you have the only # you need Lilth's....

She is awesome in so many ways, she is the type of woman you want to spend eternity with....

But I have a kid and that deals me out for the count. So I just worship him from afar.
