But surely you agree that the guy who makes "one mistake" that offends dozens of people and then instead of apologizing, says "So what?" is not a nice person. He is, rather, an *******.

So I guess it's all about body language, more so than verbal communication. If you're a nice person, somehow you're sort of sending a signal to other nice people to come and talk to you, socialize with you. Like attracts like. So some sort of non-verbal understanding/communication takes place.... that's why nice people are often approached by other nice people, as it happened to me today.

I am so happy.
Yay! It's true.

Pretty much. If there is one thing I have no respect for, it's people who commit egregious offenses and cannot bring themselves to apologize.

Not always true. Nice girls still have preferences, and they will also go for other types of guys. Still not formula for who attracts who, you just hope you can find someone you mesh with who likes you just as much.

Point proven.Usually a sicko.

The nice guys I know do nice stuff naturally and don't want to be rewarded for it.

Nice guys do nice things because they want something.

It could range from a thank you to can i park this in you by braille.

No they are sneaky a-holes.

When they have an underlying agenda that's when women should look for red flags.

People should do nice things without expecting things in return. If you expect anything you arent a nice person.
