I truly don't know why it seems that way to you. The reality I live in/observe seems quite different than that which I read here. Though I've never understood people who need to trumpet how "nice" they are. It's one of those words like "classy"--if you use it to describe yourself, you might not be embodying it. Actions speak louder than words.

(For the record, I've never heard anyone refer to themselves as a "bad boy" either, though I might die from laughing it I did, as it would conjur up images of Fonzie from Happy Days or something).

Not all of us live in a world that plays out as if it's an episode of Entourage written by Tucker Max. If that's normal for you, yikes.

To get a gorgeous one,it does involve a bit of shallowness...

The self proclaimed "nice guys" probably don't even notice the "nice girls."

The OP said he "tried hooking up" with this woman 5 years ago. The complaints on this board by "nice guys" usually involve being turned down for casual sex. There are a couple posters here who seem to genuinely want a relationship with someone, but most of the time it seems like griping that the hot chick went home with someone else. Then they tell themselves (and us) it's because they are so darn nice. Nearly all of the self-proclaimed nice guys I have seen here and met in real life aren't very nice. Some of them are rank a-holes. My favorite was a guy here who started talking about wanting to take a blowtorch to a woman's vagina.

Really good point. Is being nice all they have going for them? And I don't even mean are they good looking and/or have a good job. I mean do they have interests, are they fun to talk to, do they like to do interesting things? Maybe a guy would be okay dating a woman who was a big dull dud as long as she was really hot. But I don't want to date a guy who the ONLY thing he seems to have going for him is being nice.

These "nice guy" stereotypes on this forum are rediculous.

Most "nice guys" have such a narrow view of how to attract women, and what women to try and attract, that they do strike out by not properly identifying what women would be a good fit for them, and then chasing those women.

well you got one signature.

it's a freaking joke, the entire concept & for the millionth time any guy that has to shout from the rooftops "I'm one of the nice guys!" -- isn't.

(majority of them are FAR from it in the first place, but that's another matter).
