I was Stumbling tonight and came across this article on why nice guys usually finish last. If you’re a women, it’s one of those things that you’ll read and nod along with, because it is RIGHT on. I was terrible to the nice guys I dated! And it starts young too…one of my main reasons for dating a guy in the 10th grade was because he had a car and could get me to and from school. I was a horrid little bitch to him. Guy who took me to homecoming and who was my first boyfriend in high school? Same story. I wanted the asshole who wanted to make out under the bleachers at the football game and then ignore me on Monday. The guy who had a crush on me at work and brought me flowers? Nice guy…creeped the hell out of me because he was into me too much, too quickly. Women can sense desperation like dogs can sense fear, and women like me don’t like it.

When I met Jim, and he didn’t immediately fall head over heels for me, I was into it. I loved the challenge! We’d date, break up, get back together…and through it all, I was completely into it. He didn’t need me to find something to do on a Friday night, he didn’t put me on a pedestal, and he didn’t tell me he loved me for MONTHS. He was a nice person (not an asshole like some of the guys I’d been with), always treated me well, and he was a great guy to be with, but he wasn’t a “nice guy” like those other guys!

So fess up ladies…if you’re married now, did you settle for a nice guy? Or did you take the challenge, like I did? I’m interested to see how many of you agree with the article above.
