    Yes. My theory is that today's society implants the idea that women need to be so good looking that the ones who aren't (or don't think they are) develop self-nullifying behaviors where they enjoy their boyfriends treating them like shit (because it's how they feel about themselves and a nice guy treating them well is unnatural to them).

      Sad but true webbster. I knew someone with that issue. she could have herself a very nice guy, but she always for assholes. eventually, she found a nice guy who she is with to this day.

        Women say they want nice guys, yet they usually go for complete assholes who treat them like shit (especially young women!).

      I hear that one. You would think they would love being treated nice, but it just dont seem to be the case.

    I'm a pretty nice guy, but I also don't let anyone push me around (verbally or physically). I'm always nice to girls if they're nice to me, and I'm always mean to girls if they're mean to me. I just follow the golden rule and eventually things go my way, if a girl screws me over in the end its not because I'm nice and that I finish last, its because I'm a good human-being and the person who screwed me isn't. That plain and simple.

    Nice guys do finish last and 99% of the people they are nice too don't deserve it. Best thing I can say for nice guys is to keep being yourself and don't let the horrible people of the world change you. Fact is most people envy you and act out just to try to get you to be more like them.

    If you learn how to live independently and without a woman, this wouldn't even be an issue.

      I try to live without sex(which for me also means without a woman). Got any ideas? I'm now trying the in "denial" method, but i can tell is not really working. I would try some pills that cut off libido but pill are.. well chemicals...

    I agree with Crueltobekind1587. Guys need to realise that being a friend is not the same thing as being a mate or partner. It's a totally different ball game.

    Ocasionally, guys have to be mean, assertive and strong to show the girl that he really wants her. This makes her feel treasured and loved and this is why she goes for him. I also agree that this tends to be the assholes who jsut want sex or whatever.

    Some girls love a bad guy. The whole sexy danger thing. But bad guys get bad girls. Trust me on this, nice guys are the real winners <3

    I think most nice guys do believe this. I'm curenttly dating one of the nicest guys I've ever met. We are both so happy with each other. So if that's finishing last then yes. Most nice guys are the marrying type, I think, so if you're young girls might not want to be with you because they just want to have 'fun'. They'll come around :)

    I think women generally prefer a dominant guy, not mean, but just someone who will take control and women can feel protected when they're with them. You can be nice and dominant. This whole "nice guys finish last" is not because they're nice, but because they're not dominant. Niceness is a good quality in anyone.

      Girls who are with "bad" guys I think are attracted to their dominance, protectiveness, and confidence. But I'm sure they don't like his mean side. Nice guys aren't assertive (not being mean and forceful though) in getting a girl, that's why they have trouble. When girls say they want a nice guy they really do, but the reason they so often don't pick them is because the "bad" guy is generally the one who shows he's going to take control in a situation such as protecting her and be the man.

    You mistake nice as boring. Most women like a nice guy but they do not want some one who is boring. You can be nice and interesting.

    This depends on what you mean by "nice guy".
    If you mean someone who is basically a doormat, then I would have to say they probbably are not the best suited for relationships.

    If you mean someone who is simply an all around good person, then I would say no. They may not always come in first, but thats just how it goes. But one does not ever come in "last" by being a good person.

    both points apply to women as well, it should be noted.

    .... Yeah. I'm pretty simple minded. I admit it. Probbly the life time of shonen anime. heh heh.

    Women like attention. And assholes. Assholes like putting their fingers in assholes (attention). Women have assholes.

    That reminds me of a song from youtube...: Nice Guys by Nigahiga, Kevjumba, and Chester See "Nice guys finish last,
    That’s why I’ll treat you like trash,
    It’s not what I really wanna do.
    But, you only date bad guys so,
    I’ll give it my best try to,
    Treat you the way you want me to."

    A lot of nice guys turn into misogynistic assholes after years of being rejected and/or passed up for other people. Some of it stems from them expecting more out of friendships than could ever have been there in the first place.

    And they do finish last. Grow some balls.

    There's no such thing as a nice guy really, most self-identified "nice guys" are really just bitter creeps, and a lot of them actually hate women.

    a lot of guys think they are entitled to a girl just because they are "nice". honestly no girl I know wants to date someone who is a dick to her; "nice guys finish last" is just an excuse to whine about not having a girlfriend, and to blame your problems on women

    Nice guys finish last, period. Ive been in last place for so long now i dont even want to think about finishing in the top 100. Being in last place sucks, but "last place" is all i know.

    The only way i want to come out in first is if by default of some kind. Otherwise, ill keep my slow and steady pace because im struggling so much in this event that, i just want to reach the end so that i can stop competing.

    Nice guys finish last when they're too nice and/or when they think they're superior. Being a "nice guy" doesn't automatically give you a good or interesting personality.

  • In my experience, yes they do but it's not because they're nice.

    Pointing that out as the determining factor is like looking at the fact that 90% of convicted criminals are Christian and coming to the conclusion that 90% of criminality stems from Christianity.

    Ugh... this again?

    Nice guys don't finish last. However, a mealy-mouthed shut-in who constantly complains about how women only go for jerks will ALWAYS finish last.

    Being nice is common courtesy. Stop acting like you're an unwanted gift to women across the globe. Constantly talking about how nice you are does NOT make you a nice guy.

    The funniest bit about relationships is when you see girls adamantly declaring that they like nice guys and would never date an asshole or let themselves be treated like shit, WHILE they're dating an asshole and being treated like shit

    thats not always the case i asked a question on yahoo answers and i got my perfect answers. you can be a nice guy but you really gotta be fun and flirty at the same time.

    cant talk to girls about their problems because they already have friends for that. only if she asks then you can but try not to do it too much. like make a funny joke that'll make em laugh. keep em in a good mood

    if you keep talking about serious stuff and each others issues then she'll either see you as a brother, dad, uncle, or a male girlfriend and i know a girl wouldnt wanna date their family right?

    that's what i realized and i havent done that since i was in middle school so yeah i got enough friends now i should act out like i used to and have fun : )
