JustErin said: applekisses said: How do you mean? Is there a phantom group of wonderful, single men lurking in the corners of the world? Those guys are often overlooked because they are viewed as boring or a pushover - not that this is always actually the case. A lot of women think, "Nice guy, but just not challenging enough". I personally like a guy somewhere between a nice guy and an asshole. I find those guys are the hardest to find. I think I'd qualify for that one!!! | |

I COMPLETELY 100% AGREE with this. THAT kind of guy is the type I also want, and they ARE the rarest. No one wants a pushover. we all..men and women, need to be ready to be in a relationship with someone nice. I wouldn't have gone on a second date with my wife, if I hadn't have gotten out of a relationship with a bitch first. The change was eyeopening. | |

Maybe it's because you've been conditioned through your upbringing to be drawn to men that are not the nicest to you. I know that this was the case with me. | |

I think I do tend to have this sick twisted thing for being treated like and feeling like shit, but I'm not sure why. My Dad was Honest to God thee best man in the world. So I'm not sure where it came from. | |

luv4all7 said: Now in all fairness, as much fun as it is to sit here and bash men, there ARE good guys out there. And theres as many shady women as there is men.
But thats the point of the thread! For us all (me, and you since you seem to feel the same) to realise this, just enough to give us enough faith to keep going for a little longer... Glad ya found it! | |

Good men tend to want to pursue, to be initiators. But they also might be less used to taking the risks necessary to get a woman's attention or to follow through.
And, a lot of times, they've been hurt soooo many times before, too, by women dealing with their own issues and scars, that the risk seems to be less worth it as time goes on. Surely men and women must take responsibility for our own respective romantic histories and decisions. A lot of the lesson tends to be connected to mistaking attraction for substance, or giving chemistry too much of a priority in interaction. There also is something to be said for having a good pool of men. My suggestion: Get active in a church, and make plenty of friends. Positive people with their heads screwed on right tend to attract the same. I met my girlfriend -- who I'd be the first to admit is way out of my league -- through befriending two other such positive people. | |

susannah said: I am so sick of them. Most of them anyway. But it seems the ones who are nice are either gay or related or are only doing it to get in my pants.
Tell me, honestly, do men ever do nice things for you just because they care?! No, of couse they do, even I know that. But why do they change their minds about it at the drop of a hat?! Are they scared? Theyre such wusses I am on a rampage. I have had enough Does anyone have any nice happy men stories to share, not the kind that will depress me of course! The kind that will restore my faith in at least a small number of them, and convince me there are a small number of nice ones in my postal district. Of course, if you want to share in my rant, feel free! Failing that, can anyone lend me a shotgun? no. not right now i don't | |
