A "self-proclaimed" winner is not usually a winner! :tongue:


It's not considered bragging if it's true.

A tall man will always be considered tall no matter what he thinks of his size.

The Sun will always be bright up close regardless of how hard you close your eyes or how blind you are.

Sometimes an apple is just an apple. - Y.O.

If you never give up, then you'll be a winner. - Chuck Norris






Then why not let other people say you are nice? Why does it always come to some pitython of "I'm so nice no girls like me?" Wouldn't it make more sense to perhaps be humble about it therefore exerting what "nice" is all about?

No, of course not, we have to announce to the rest of the blind, deaf, and dumb world just how nice we are. See where it is going? People can tell, and they can make their own call on it, let them do it for a change.

Actions speak for themselves. To tell people "how great you are" is belittling. Let them see for themselves. Let them make their own decisions....

I want to know what being called "too respectful" (which is a compliment by the way) has to do with being raised by a single mom? If that's a dig that's sad. I work hard to be a good SINGLE MOM to my kids. flowerforyou
i think single mom or wonderful people ! flowerforyou


Single moms rawk..single moms are like super women. And we need strong confident men that are NICE to us, we've been beat up enough. We want him nice enough to speak to the heart, yet strong. I could never be with a man that I can beat arm wrestling..so to speak.

Whatever, you learn to take people at face value on the internet, either that or you get twisted into a lot of different scams. I don't see it as judgmental, more common sense. But I've also seen a ton more of these threads than you have, so maybe it is just something you pick up in time...unless of course you're implying that all of the women date jackasses and completly skip over the nice guy...which doesn't make any sense.

I don't know about that. I try not to judge and I've never gotten twisted or been taken in any scams. Weird.

I doubt it. I've been on the net since there was a net and used to design vB and IPB forum software so I'm no stranger to people on forums. If someone asks a question on a forum, I have no reason to second guess why they did it. If someone doesn't like the question that they asked, then simply move on to another thread :wink:

That does seem to be the flavor and theme of the "nice guy" threads. I know better and don't buy it for a minute..I know who the strong yet nice guys are.

Yeah, because your contributions in this thread have been all the better.

Nice guys finish last because of two possible reasons; A: They are a walking mat for women, in other words a pushover...or B: There is more to the story, this one in my experience has been true more than once and will probably continue to be true a lot more times after this.

What have you contributed?

"...albeit that he's all alone....slaphead"
"Hope she isn't from Ghanalaugh"

All hail your contributions to this thread, you have been a ton of help I'm sure.

It's just another silly "nice guy" thread and since it's a full moon I suspect there won't be any major contributions..we can't all be as profound and enlightened as your Fear.

It is like you said though, "I know better and don't buy it for a minute..I know who the strong yet nice guys are." It is on other people to decide who is nice...not for us to declare upon ourselves. And typically, those that do, fall into one of the two categories I posted.

Yeah but since most of us only know each other through posts it hard sometimes to make a judgment call on another. Some personalities come through the screen, some don't. One here who comes off as a Dick can be a swell person, one who comes off as a sweetheart can just as easily turn out to be a Dick. Until we take our friendships past the posts we really don't now. Take me for instance..I come off as a sweetheart..I'm actually a royal biotch in real life. :tongue:

"Typically" does not mean always...

I choose not to be judgmental toward the OP. However, since you apparently know the OP personally so well... :wink:
