Nice Guys Finish Last
by Garrett Hols
It’s amazing that assholes can get girls. Actually, now that I think of it, it’s not that amazing. They are assholes at heart, but to meet girls they lavish their undying love. IT’S A CHARADE. They act nice, friendly, and they listen, until they get into what they’re after. Their prey thinks they are in love with them, however when they realize what assholes their predators really are, they pretend like the asshole is really nice inside. The girl tries to change the asshole into a nice guy, but assholes will always be assholes. She gets upset and goes to the nice guy to complain about the asshole. But she claims to love the asshole; now this is where the theory begins. She doesn’t want to look like she is easy so she wont dump the asshole right away, instead she will stay with the asshole. Girls are idiots. They don’t realize that the nice guy has been there all along. He never had to pretend to be a good guy to get girls because he is naturally like that. However, girls don’t see it for some reason or another. They look at the nice guy as a friend, a trusted companion to whom they can tell their sad story to about their asshole boyfriend.
But the nice guy isn’t THAT naive. He was trying to score with the girl he listens to all along. The problem is that since he is a nice guy he keeps listening. Since girls get attached to things that pay attention to them, they think of the nice guy as a friend. A FRIEND. They don’t say, “Oh he’s hot” or “I want to have his children” about the nice guy, they just want the emotional support. When they get the emotional support from the nice guy, they don’t need it from the asshole. The nice guy gets the shit end of the stick while the asshole gets all the action. I am starting to wonder if being a nice guy is really the route to take to get action? I have been down this path for all of my post-pubescent life and it has gotten me NOWHERE, at least not in the women department.
Perhaps another reason why girls fall for the asshole is because assholes ignore the girl they are with. The women wonder, “Why isn’t he paying attention to me?” so they explore why. They poke and prod and get closer to the asshole. They start to get easier with each attempt to get closer. The asshole finally says, “I’ve let this beauty dangle long enough, time to boat this bass.” It is then he puts on his charade and the girl feels like she has won him, even though all she has won is an asshole.
Once you have gone down the path as a nice guy or a “listener” you can’t turn back. The girl will always go after the assholes because there are always nice guys there to listen. Once you realize that you are a “listener” you cant do anything about it, just pack up and close shop. There is no way you will get into her pants ever. There is and never will be a situation where the nice guy will get the girl he has a crush on. It just doesn’t work like that. The girl wont “come to her senses” and realize what an asshole her boyfriend is like in the movies, instead she will just go after another asshole, and unless you stop being a nice guy, she will never go after you. Women complain that there are no nice guys in the world. Right. They are obviously not looking hard enough because there are nice guys EVERYWHERE!!!! Girls aren’t looking for nice guys; they say they are but they’re not. They are looking for the perfect asshole, but there is NO SUCH THING as the perfect asshole.
All in all, the nice guy gets the shaft. To all the girls out there with boyfriends that don’t treat you with respect, that don’t listen to you, and that don’t care about you I say this; look next to you. The guy that has been standing next to you the whole time is the guy you have been looking for. He is what you want your asshole to be like. He knows more about you than you know about yourself, because he has listened to it all.

I disagree with the “don’t ever let a girl see you cry.” Men, I have discovered cry just as much as girls, and sometimes it can be comforting to a girl to see a guy cry. It’s human nature and by not crying your just keeping your feelings and emotions away from that girl. In relationships you have to be true and honest about everything or else it just won’t last. Now I don’t suggest crying to every girl that you consider a friend, but if you have one friend who you tell everything to and they know you very well, I see no problem in crying infront of her. It really is ok.

I don’t agree with its ok to cry. Personally I feel that if a guy wants to cry he should do it on his own time… it is a real turn off if a guy cries in front of me. there are other ways to show ur emotions than crying. But this is just my opinion. And about girls always going for the mean guys that is soo true! And we can be stupid but the fun of dating a mean guy is trying to be the one girl that changes him. But in the end we all get hurt… I know I do.

I just would like to comment on this very quickly. I think I’ve been on both sides of this coin, the Asshole and the Admirer. These are my observations. Women don’t really want an overly nice sensitive guy right off the bat. This doesn’t mean she wants a guy a to slap her around but a women want to feel she’s with a strong masculine type. We start hurting ourselves when we start talking on the phone with these girls for hours at a time telling them our life stories and giving them advice and what not. They have friends for this. Essentailly your just building yourself up for the I like as a friend line. Let me first off by saying Im no stud of any sort,but I feel I can give some advice on women. Here are some pointers.
-If you become interested in girl that has a boyfriend, become disinterested(if there is such a word). In this situation the only thing you can be to this girl is a friend(unless she’s down with OPP). There are many fish in the sea without hooks.
- Play some what hard to get. A girl doesnt want some pathetic looser stalking her all the time. Show interest but not too much, let her come to you.
-Make her jealous. Just like your saying how can she be with that asshole, if you bump into a girl you are interested in with another girl she will be like what is he doing with that bitch. If she has feelings for you it will drives her crazy.
-DONT EVER LET A GIRL SEE YOU CRY. Yes I did this once. I cried like a little baby to a girl that I thought I loved and didnt love me back and I feel like a douche bag to this day about it.
I hope this helps some out there. If it doesnt then just remember this race is not for the swift but for the ones who endure, so good things will come sooner or later..peace
