  • Nice guys finish first...after college. The bitchy women gotta whore around with the assholes first...then when they're left all alone and vulnerable, they get with the nice guy they should have been with all along.
    so ya reckon the bitchy women shoulda been with the nice guys? :confused: nope, when everyone grows up, the nice people find eachother.

    You probably have. But they usually already have a partner.

    You will, of course you will :)

    audiodave, that's true... could be why I'm still single :) although I'm not entirely sure I fall under the 'nice' category anyway :D

    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.

    I meant EXCEPT you, Dunk. We have an open relationship, remember? You said you liked swinging.

    I think its true but is also from bitterness from A LOT of nice guys. It's a bit unfair on them I know.

    I mean I know one guy who is perfectly nice, earns a lot, has good conversation, solvent, has own car and hair, but he can never get a girlfriend. I don't know why but maybe it's because he is slightly "boring".

    But when I say boring I don't mean boring as in boring personality, I mean boring as in he doesn't fire a girl's imagination. A boring persona maybe? I think that's the problem with nice guys. You can imagine them paying all the bills on time and driving carefully, and treating you right as well (which counts for a lot). But you can't see him being spontaneous, taking you roughly up against a wall or something lol.

    It's a sad but true fact that nice men don't satisfy a girl's "inner cave girl" need for a bit of action sometimes. Take Eddie for example. He's definitely someone who you can see is a nice person but is not a "nice guy". He has a mean and moody side and you just don't know what he's thinking, or what he's going to do next. He's not predictable, (even though in reality he could be). He just doesn't come across that way. It's not in his "persona".

    I don't know if I'm answering the question right or anything, it's just my take on it as a female who is often attracted to "bad guys" - which is not a good thing btw. I hope I grow out of it soon!

    well said. that goes both ways too. cos i hear nice girls complain about getting dumped for bitches and it's for the same reaons. like the perfectly sweet girl i've got now, who is just plain kinda boring.
  • I never got it either.....good call.

    I think it means, that two guys are in a race. The friendlier guy stops to drink some lemonade, whilst creating a rapport with the onlookers/drink-giving-outers. He was friendly.......he was nice.


    He finished last.

    duh.
    wow. no one is with me on this?

    i'm not either, but i do like your imagination, and your weird train of thought. :)

    Is she boring boring, or just has a boring persona?

    Cos if it's the latter maybe you could try spicing things up a little? ;)

    If its the former then well, I can't help you sorry!

    i'd have to refer to your well spoken definitions, but i think the latter. just a total lack of spontaneity, willingness to take risks, etc. very predictable. we can't go out to dinner without her first looking up their menu and deciding before we've left what she wants to eat. like you said, it's utterly predictable. and that bores anyone, male or female. that's what hurts "nice guys"... insecurity and a fear of taking risks that might surprise her lest she not like it. they're too safe to be much fun.

    and too even if a girl is sweet and lots of fun, a guy will dump her in a split second for a pretty, brain-dead, gold-digging, psycho bitch

    I've never really been able to fathom the logic behind this old saying.


    What it means to me is in order to get the girl, the job or what ever in life you got to be an ass. Most girls like the bad ass over nice guy. Alot of jobs want a mean ass person rather a nice guy. Thats just what I feel.
    I'll be back

    and too even is a guy is nice and has a great sense of humor, a girl will dump him in a split second for a handsome, meathead, wealthy, asshole machoman.
