Hell, I have no idea if I'm a nice guy or otherwise, but after reading all the above stuff I feel compelled to post. Mostly for no reason at all, but partly to say that if you're a woman, and you like any of the things I like, we're meant to be something or other.

Here’s some stuff that I like:

I like Hubcaps
I like Laundry
I like Waffles
I like Ant farms
I like recess, picnics and eating’ pork & beans
I like tin foil and bow ties
I like cardboard and moon pies
When I’m soaking’ in the bathtub, I like shooting’ submarines! Shooting’ submarines!
I like Snoopy
I like Droopy
I like Charles Nelson Riley
I like Hee-Haw, Fat Albert, and I also like corn
I like Corn Flakes, corndogs
I like cornbread, and corn starch
I like the band Korn, and popcorn.
I like all kinds of corn! All kinds of corn!

I like egg rolls and crab rolls, crab legs, but not frog legs
I like duck sauce with duct tape and jumping’ on the bed
I like Popeye, pip eye, Popeye, poopeye, peepye
Olive Oil and Bluto and falling’ on my head. Falling’ on my head.
I like throwing’ biscotti at Bigfoot and Yeti.
I like Veronica and Betty.
Don’t call me Jughead.
I like gumballs and rum balls
I like cheese balls and cheesecake
I like pineapple upside-down cake
Why is it upside-down? Why is it upside-down?


(fyi - I stole all of the above from a certain weird cartoon)

I would rather play sports than watch them, and my wife is not my trophy nor my slave.

Huh. Well, I could care less about the cooking thing. I say we each cook one or two nights a week, and eat out the other nights. It's why they make resturants. Could split the other stuff too. Sports? "I'm not sly." don't care for 'em.

You know, reading this thread made me realize just what a jerk a couple years of college has turned me into. I used to be one of those nice guys. He's probably still deep down inside somewhere. But I very much doubt that he'll be showing his face any time soon.

Talk about a revelation I didn't need right before going to bed...

Yup, I'm entirely to the point where I just sit and let them come to me now. I've always been lazy :). Oh well maybe a nice one will take the bait soon.

hmmmm....this thread is truly interesting. Here's my 2 cents on this issue.

I agree that chemistry is really what is going to matter, but I have seen chemistry built over time, thus why friends before lovers works. I'm a hopeless romantic, hopeless meaning that as many times as I may be squashed, I can't give up the hope that I'll find that girl who is an equal.

Elaborating on equal, I don't mean someone who can do what I can do, that would be boring, I can already do it, but someone who wants to learn more of me and I want to learn more of her, that shares some qualities. For instance, I get all hot and bothered when I find a woman who can play pool as well as I can, but I don't care if she can rebuild an engine as fast as I can, it's just nice to share a couple things.

So are there many equal women out there (I will hit the thread topic in a sec, promise) for the nice guys? Seems like (please remember I said seems) most women are interested in playing the field. Now I'm 26, so one would think women my age would at least be interested in settling down for at least a little bit with someone to see what it would be like. Alas, pretty sure that's not true. So where are all the nice guys at? Well, if you group them together like that, they're all confused as hell by the women they want and hiding in the open. Seems like women misinterpret the confusion for non-desire (I'm sure this happens the other way around too) and it becomes "just friends" for a good deal of time.

Personally, I agree with BEG (I'm in the Navy so I'm all about acronyms) about being kind of bitter. I haven't found a woman to be close to in about two years now, not seeking sympathy, but just saying that it's old to play the typical games that guys and girls play. I'll hang out with women and throw out tidbits of things to see if I catch their interest, and will explore who they are. The day I find one who returns the interest to try and learn more, well, maybe that will be the right one.

So if there are some nice guys out there, don't just be available, show some interest in who they are and what they do, it will return to you quickly. Same thing for the guys looking for the nice girls, don't be shy, just talk to her and roll with the punches as and if they come.

Great....that 2 cents put me in debt....

Mal: Kaylee, what the hell's going on in the engine room? Were there monkeys? Some terrifying space monkeys maybe got loose?

Someone further up in this thread had the right idea when they commented on finding nice guys at a game-playing gathering... go look for the nice guys at events/activities/places where you think nice guys that you would like to meet would go.

The types of guys you meet will change with the types of events/activities/places you pick.

So if you pick the bar on a particular night, those are the guys you get. Bible study on a different night, I'm sure you meet different guys. How about the laundrymat(sp?). (Perhaps that's too random!) Starbucks? Mountain biking? WWE matches? Autoparts store? Chess tournament? Community-college computer classes? Livestock shows? Oh and bookstores! How could I forget bookstores!

You will find some nice guys (most) everywhere!

+++++++++++++

Now what I want to know, being one of the "nice guys", is...

...how do we tell which of you women are NOT MENTAL CASES!?! My friends and I in college couldn't figure this out, and I still don't know.

(Disclaimer: Yes "mental cases" is an old term, may be politically incorrect, and sounds downright insensitive, but it accurately summarizes the behavior witnessed by many "nice guys" of the women around them.)

Alas, back to left field.
