I have dated. A lot. I am unmarried by choice. The one thing that I learned. Women have ZERO respect for a “nice guy.” None. They will all say they do. But they don’t.
One lesson I eventually learned:
Just as it’s easier to get hired when you already have a job, it’s easier to get dates when you’re already dating someone.
A guy who isn’t currently in any kind of relationship, and if the other person knows that, isn’t going to have any “hand”, as George Costanza would put it.
That’s because a man who says “But I’m a nice guy!” is exactly the same as a fat girl who says “But I’m so smart!” It’s an attempt to emphasize a characteristic that has no real influence on the decision-maker.
“Women have ZERO respect for a “nice guy.” None.”
Yep, saw just the same. Thankfully there are women in other countries, with far better value systems.
