Sabot96 - great video! I must say to you my friend, go overseas. Nice Guys are in demand in South American and Asia. Those are "collectivistic" cultures which puts more emphasis on "Team" & "Family." America is an "individualistic" culture. There's no need to stay here & put up with the nonsense that you've been subjected to. Trust me, Nice guys are appreciated abroad because those women from "family oriented" backgrounds know a good provider, communicator & man of integrity when they see one.

Thank you for your comments. I will keep this in mind.

A word to most of the guys watching this video, thinking it applies to them: I AM A VERY NICE GUY AND I HAVE MY PICK OF WOMEN. You're not unsuccessful with women BECAUSE you're a nice guy. You're unsuccessful DESPITE it. Instead if bitching about how girls shoot you down and go for assholes, take some time and effort to understand your shortcomings. Are you a fat lazy slob? Boring and unengaging? Do you make jarring and irrelevant tangents in conversation? Another annoying trait? Figure it out.

Ok I have taken the time to find my shortcomings and it is being a nice guy. Thank you for your opinion, but it is wrong. This video was created to point out a very important observation that being a nice guy is a disadvantage and not an advantage when trying to develop relationships that are not just friendships with women.

Im giving up... if you're nice and respectful and all, people, not just girls, walk all over you, making sure to stomp their feet on your face. I'm pretty fucked up in the head thanks to these people.

Yes it is true that no good deed goes unpunished, but as you grow older you learn to do good to those who deserve it. I have found that I have become much more reserved in who gets the reward of my gentle kindness. The hardest thing for me was to put aside my desire to help those that have been hurt. For some reason they want to give that hurt back to me two fold.

american women are too stupid to like nice guys. this isnt the america of the 1920's

[IShowYouLawAndOrder]

Nice guys are being abandoned because the girl knows that whatever she does, how ever cruel and mean she is to the nice guy, he is going to stand by her side, no matter what.

That is emotional suicide on the nice guy's part.

Don't be a nice guy, it's stupid and perverted.

there are girls that like nice guys... you just gotta find em bradas

@sabot96 You were doing fine till 4:05, then you started giving advice that looked like a nice guy whining. Make a mental note to improve in that aspect. I personally have to too.

theres a fine line between "nice guy" and "boring, self-hating pussy"

[cuwhenigetthere]

(Former Nice Guy ) Make yourself available to shit on, they will shit on you! Girls have girlfriends to talk with, vent too, etc... Don't be another girlfriend she can count on! She will learn that whenever she has troubles that you will be there to sort it out. You actually reinforce this behavior when you are there for her. Also be accountable for not Maning up and being honest with her from the start of your true interest/intent.

Well I guess Im not as much of a Niceguy as I thought I was. I would never fuck with girl after she leaves me for another dude. I'll cuse her ass out kicker than she left. Doin all this shit thinkin you gonna play me.

Well I guess now I know Im not a Niceguy. So I guess Im just a fuck up.

Shits - Jerks - Assholes - Motherfuckers - Cocksuckers - Thugs - Bad boys - Cocks - Pricks - Shitassed Motherfuckers - Douche Bags = All the things women love....they are all whores, sluts, bitches and hoes. They deserve each other.

@ritter89 your projecting. you have no idea how any of these guys act in a real life situation. Its funny that the "obese/ homely chicks" ,as you call them, can more easily get into a relationship than most average looking men.

[ritter89]

@24Elementman This whole "nice guy" bullshit is sexism at it's finest. Half of these nice guys kowtow to pretty women while treating obese/ homely chicks with just as much indifference and disrespect as they claim to experience from their platonic girlfriends. Also, where are all the "nice girls"? If the sexual chemistry is not there, a sexual relationship will NEVER develop.. 48 Hrs features lots of "nice guys", after they've bludgeoned to death their "friends" over jealousy/unrequited love

[ritter89]

@IronMongoose1 I'm naturally introverted, shy, nice and even dorky at times but I've never had trouble attracting women. NG myth boosts self esteem during unrequited love. Thinking you're "nice guy" prevents realizing that you're essentially a eunuch in the eyes of your beloved. Also, "nice guys" wind up the stalkers and obsessives. My platonic friendships w/ women are NOT based on them being "nice girls". Instead, it's b/c we lack sexual chemistry (aka I never experience an urge to kiss them)

Have you watched serbatheist why nice guys fail? It might give you some food for thought.
