That's no nice guy, that's a wimp.
Yep, wimps are normaly self proclaimed nice guys. It doesnt mean that eveery nice guy is a wimp however. I thik the definition of "nice guy" varies for many and this is why we normaly cant agree on this subject.

Youth and fertility.

Looks are a small part of it, so is social status and myriad of other traits. What is alot more important however, is confidence, charisma and responsibility. If a guy displays these three traits, he can have a very sucesful dating life. Dont believe the nonsense that you have been brianwashed with all your life. Respect yourself and the women you approach. Be comfortable in your own skin and display the traits listed above and everything will fall into place.

Since no one asks this question before I'll ask it again. Why is everyone on this board obsessed with nice guys? Things were going pretty good on these threads until the OP had to make a thread about how much he hates nice guys. Next thing you know this thread is going to go 100 pages. If people hate a group of guys so much than why bring them up at all? There are more threads on this forum about nice guys than there is on the evils of domestic violence.

Who said they did? They don't. Men in their 30's and 40's who have any maturity want women close to their own age. As I posted elsewhere, they're not interested in the kiddie corral. They've matured beyond that. They want someone they can have an intelligent conversation with about the economy, politics, professional interests, and life in general. There are plenty of great-looking women in those age ranges.

Agreed. As a man in his 40s I have no interest in being with GIRLS who could be my daughter. I prefer women my age or even a bit older... women with whom I have some things in common.

There was a sudden explosion of nice-guy threads because so many guys were refusing to believe women who posted that women much prefer nice guys.

In todays dating world as it is, men look to their male friends for intellectual stimulation and debates on religion, politics, spirituality, economy. Very few women have interest in these subjects.

Because we have a plague of these threads. And every single self-described 'nice guy' refuses to really address the true reasons why he is alone, preferring instead to whine about life's inherent unfairness.

Not true, unless you're talking about 20-somethings who can't tear themselves away from The Idiot Box, Facebook, gadgets, etc. Plenty of 30- and 40-somethings who love to talk about more cerebral topics.

It's all about the type of woman you're seeking.
