They don't have a girlfriend cuz women become "friends" with them then go screw the bad guys.


well I may have not been so blunt and graphic as this gentleman but sadly this is true more often than not.

How do you spot them? You don't, we want to blend in with the masses and see if anyone can tell us from the bad guys.

Nice guys whine about women liking bad boys because it gives validity to their sniveling ways!!!

I'm with justastudent. Although, I don't necessarily think you can "spot" a nice guy. I have been the victim of falling for an incredible actor who had me convinced, hook, line and sinker that he was a "nice guy." Hindsight is 20/20 mind you, so I know now if I had watched the person interact with their family, friends and public in general more closely (and looked more closely at their previous personal relationships), I would have gotten a better understanding of who they are and what they are about. If they have solid, caring relationships with those around them and treat everyone with dignity and respect (or conversely, do not), you'll be able to spot who is a gem and who is not.

sniveling?

not at all and just for the record "bad ones" are not gender specific, for every guy like that there is a woman like that for us

^^^That's true and I agree - there are women the same - but since the title of this thread was, 'how to spot a nice guy!' the gender I spoke of was 'male'!!!

I equate the phrase 'nice guy' with a negative undertone!!
I would rather have a man that is honest - true to himself and others - kind and caring - confident and giving of himself, without proclaiming it!!
The phrase 'nice guy' - especially here - is usually used by the self professed who claims - nobody loves me, nobody cares, why I'm so NICE?!?! Wah wah wah!!!!
A true nice guy doesn't try - he just is!!!
This is my opinion and I have seen hundreds of threads here on 'nice guys never win' to back that feeling up!!!
And again the gender brought forth in the title of this thread has directed my comments.


edit (below) Well as I stated above - "I would rather have a man that is honest - true to himself and others - kind and caring - confident and giving of himself, without proclaiming it!!" That is how you spot the nice guy!!!! "A true nice guy doesn't try - he just is!!!"

I dont equate the nice guy with a negative undertone arbitrarily....however if the nice guy is a wimp and has self esteem issues then yes I can see it having a negative undertone...

I dont like anyone male or female who has that self professed atttidue of nobody loves me, nobody cares.....wah wah wah.....

I have seen those threads to leeanne....I guess the difference in this one I had hoped for was how to spot a nice guy....since we all have so much to say about spotting a player.......

I think there are probably tons of nice guys on here.............

I'm willing to bet there are a lot more nice guys than players on here!! Judging from the ones I have met there sure are anyway!

what difference does it make?

i see nice guys and bad guys ... and i would not want to be on either end of the spectrum ..

i have an issue with this whole thing about "when he says he'll call he calls"
doesn't memory and a schedule have something to do with that?

from experience ... i never said i'd call and if i did i think i used to call .. but then this one woman wouldn't let me get off the phone till i said i'd call back .. and then i got busy and now i find i'm saying that often .. 'i'll call you back' and well .. then sh!t happens and i get caught up in what i'm doing i forget to call .. ok enough said on this

what makes me laugh is how women think pulling out or pushing in a chair is something you get from a nice guy .. that's like saying a nice gal is one that cooks ...

back in the days ... things were 'expected' of both genders .. and that is how things were done ..

i would give anyone a HELLping hand .. and HELL even my shirt off my back if i felt they needed it ..

people are so consumed about what they can get that they will do things that aren't really who they are ... it only lasts so long ... and true colours ALWAYS shine through

and nice guys DO finish last .. women dont want a 'nice guy' .. they dont give them the time of the day .. when's the last time any of you have said .. you know he's a really nice guy .. and then ask him out on a date ... nice guys are for friends .. and they will try setting up their friends with the nice guy

nice gals are for controlling ... so i seen .. i've watched nice gals get controlled by guys who seem to be nice ... cuz they are afraid of losing them

nice guy/gal is one that comprimises and understands ... and if you can do those two things .. you will do almsot anything for anyone .. and not just for the one you are involved with ..

to spot a nice guy ... look at his friends .. well look at the women .. they will always go up to a nice guy and say hi to him .. they actually make it a point to go to them ... otherwise they would walk the other way

How do you spot a nice guy? He's the one with lots of female friends that cry on his shoulder about their romantic problems.... but he never has a date for the weekend. Nice guys know these things.

No... and that's just nasty.

Haha... I'm waiting for one of them nice guys to shovel my drive way and wipe the snow off my car and get it all warmed up for me to get out and go shopping.... So I can spend all his money!!!



I honestly think it works both ways..... you be nice and your partner will be nice... It's all about respecting each other... and YES.... it mean going out of your way at time!!

Hmmmmmmm I didn't realize everyone had their own definitions of nice guy/gal so maybe we should go with "preferred partner"?

I see the "where are all the ........... or wanted one good ............" , my personal belief is there are many things that can fluctuate up and down but add up to your personal 10

A woman who may be rated a 5 in looks at first glance by some could have all the good things you want and a personality that makes her a 10 and more desirable than a swimsuit model lacking say honesty or something else with a personality of a lamp

sorry for the examples they are just to illustrate my point and hopefully it was understood

That's b.s. The person I'm dating, I persued. I think he's a nice guy. Ask anyone here that knows him, everyone says he's a nice guy. I'm keeping this one for myself, to hell with suggesting him to a friend! *selfishly smirks with a twinkle in her eye,muahhaha*



nice gals are for controlling ... so i seen .. i've watched nice gals get controlled by guys who seem to be nice ... cuz they are afraid of losing them


True, been there. Had enough of those type.Probably why I'm so darned outspoken now,lol.


nice guy/gal is one that comprimises and understands ... and if you can do those two things .. you will do almsot anything for anyone .. and not just for the one you are involved with ..


Also very true. I'd drop anything in a heartbeat for anyone I cared about. No questions asked.

The nice guy is the person who spots some lint on your dress and picks it off for you.. without you even noticing.
