What is the "nice girl" routine? 'Cause now I'm kind of worried that this may be my problem...



When it comes to guys, I'm one of the foolish ones, hoping to find the best in everyone.

Look where that got Kaylee. During the show I mean.
(Quite a trail of no and where.)



Maybe the key is patience? And a life jeopardizing gun battle?

All girls looking for a nice guy should read this:

http://espanol.geocities.com/numeritos/10percenters.html

Yes we do exist. True enough, we're not out there in large numbers but statistically speaking, you should be able to find one.

The real problem is that, for whatever reason, women are attracted to jerks. I know this is not always true but it is more often than not. (at least from my own experience)

Viva la 10 percenters!

I can't speak for everyone in here, but I happen to be a cusper. 29...I'd say communication is it! I don't have a problem approaching a guy, I, however, am not one of the searchers so it's silly for me to be here...

And I'd like some of those sparks Ric is talking about.

It's true about women and jerks. True, and aggravating. Who ever thought nice guys would have to fake being jerks to get girls? Blows the mind...

Plus a lot of those guys are already MARRIED. Nice guys tend to do that...

Or they're gay...



These two things are only a problem when the "nice" guy doesn't tell you before you start dating him.

Not that I'd know from personal experience or...uhhh I just yeah

For demographics sake, I am 44. I too looked up not too long ago and thought WTF, I've been letting a social life pass me by.
Now, unfortunately, most Women I tend to be attracted to are in their 20's to 30's and won't look at the old man twice.

With the intent of meeting some like-minded females, one in particular, I went to a few of the local meet-ups. Turns out she is Married, the search continues.

I'm not attracted to jerks. If he's not nice to babies and puppies and his mother, I am NOT interested.

Of course, it's like Mai said, you don't always know right up front. The jerks tend to pretend to be nice to you (and the babies and the puppies) and do all the things they think you want them to do because they're trying to woo you and then, once you're wooed, they start to show their true nature. By then, you're hooked and it's harder to just cut him loose.

I got over my bad boy phase in high school.

Thundar-lots of women prefer older men. They get tired of the immaturity of the men their own age. They want someone stable and secure. I tend to date older men. One guy I dated was 11 years older than me. So, all I'm saying is, don't give up hope.

Oh, and Mai-if the line for the nice boys starts at your door-I'm moving in with you!!

ok, ok Alene... You're gonna have to help me out here... I er.... This is going to be one of those really embarrasing moments where I illustrate just what a 'mungus doof I am, but..........

What's a cusper?!?!?

(I know, I know, this is right up there with that time I sat around a table at a pub and nodded 'knowingly' when the conversation jinked to talk of Metrosexuals....And when an accusatory remark came my way as to how 'metrosexual' I was, I rather too keenly, butted in with:

"No,no I like girls OK!!!"

Which was met with stoney faces, a beat, and then the entire table laughing at me.) Hey how was I to know !?!?

So to avoid any repetitions of said encounter, and subsequent humiliation, lets get it out in the open now..... could you do me the favour of explaining 'a cusper' ? For I know not what one is? Thank you

Hey you not had the sparks? Why TWG you'd like the sparks! I've had 'em :) They were great... of course it turned into a raging inferno that went out of control and burned me - but hey.... Like a firefly dancing in the still summer night sky... It sure was mighty purdy there for a while......

Hmm.. I was just being facetious in previous posts. I'm a strict adherent to the "be publicly weird" philosophy. I'll forego my cosmic ethos and be serious for one of those super-rare moments...

Nice is a relative term. In fact "nice" has nothing to do with being happy in relationships. Just be honest. Be blunt, and brutally honest. Always say what you're thinking and what you truly believe (even if you're wrong at least you're being honest). Be honest even if it costs you. I've been around the block a few times on this one.

Be like that 24/7.

I think if you do that, you'll attract someone just like you. You'll probably be hated everywhere you go, but at least you won't be a phony. Of course, you don't tell that drunk man-ape biker in the bar who is the size of a refrigerator that his physical presence is offensive to your nostrils unless you fight like River Tam and have an escape plan. But you get the idea.
