    I thought nice people don't seem very liked because they are perceived as "always available" or "not gonna leave" or they are sometimes perceived as weak, so people subconsciously don't give them too much value.

      +Xeno That is the common perception but it's only accurate when dealing with someone who has a neurotic motivation for being nice towards you. People with the same sort of anxieties as the ones mentioned in the video. A nice person without those problems may stick around longer than other people because they understand the resistance but ultimately will leave and become unavailable if their treatment of you is not reciprocated.That's what my own observations and my experience having been the neurotic type in the past tell me at least.

    • @Prince_Oli
      @Prince_Oli 8 років тому +188

      +Xeno I agree. Though, I do believe it goes deeper than simply valuing interesting people over kind people. Being kind is actively easy. No arguments, no enemies, no issues.. Someone who is nice to everyone is probably lacking a backbone, causing them to suffer internally, making it terrifying for them to defend themselves. They dread conflict, and will do almost anything to get out of dealing with it. Those who don't have an issue with conflict are typically people who learn to be genuinely honest. Nice people aren't just nice. They live a lie. They are prisoners who pretend to be happy about it.

      @BulletTheEnforcer 8 років тому +72

      I agree with you and I think that the video is hinting at that by saying "We accept the love we think we deserve." If we have a healthy amount of self-respect and love for ourselves we will not be entirely put off by a person who likes us and is nice for the right reasons. If you or me are the nice person with a healthy view of ourselves and we are pursuing someone who treats us like crap then their perception of us will not match up with our perception of ourselves. What I'm basically saying is our validation and self-confidence will not come from wanting those people to like us, it will come from thinking that we do not deserve to be treated like shit. Now let me be clear. When I say we must have a healthy view of ourselves I am not referencing narcissim.

    • @bl4bl4bl435
      @bl4bl4bl435 9 років тому +52

      I disagree. How can the capacity to love another being be built in solitude? You have to be loved, be it by friends, family or strangers on the internet, before you can love others.

    • @theflyingdutchman2542
      @theflyingdutchman2542 9 років тому +73

      Assyrian I don't see the disagreement. To love is to build nourish and cherish. If you don't nourish and cherish yourself, then how could you ever nourish and cherish the other...
      You seem to be saying that you first need to be nourished and cherished yourself, and that's not what I'm denying.

    • @theflyingdutchman2542
      @theflyingdutchman2542 9 років тому +17

      Hooga So you don't cherish and nourish yourself then?
      It seems on your definition to be loved (or worthy of love) one needs to be perfect. And I wouldn't say that. As I said to love is to nourish and cherish, if you're perfect you don't need to be nourished and cherished.

    • @leeuwtjevanjuda
      @leeuwtjevanjuda 9 років тому +14

      +Hooga Why don't you agree?
      I'm on the same boat as the flying dutchman. The reason why I think that one has to love oneself before one can love another is because in my definition love is wanting and giving the best for the object of your affection. If it is hard for you to want the best for yourself, as in: you relate to yourself in a negative way, then it will be very hard to give the best to people around you. But if you love yourself, only then can you truly love another.
      Within this definition I do truly love myself, and I am definitely no narcissist.
      I think the video showed that if you don't love yourself, you don't think/feel you are worthy of the love of others. If you don't feel worthy of their love, you push them away. And pushing away the ones who love you, is the opposite of loving others. So you have to love yourself, to love others in my view.

    I've lost a few relationships in my teens and early 20s because I was too clingy and too caring. I've always been the "nice guy".
    After those adolescent and immature relationships, I'm happily married and exactly where I want to be without compromising my positive personality.
    Don't worry, nice people. Be yourself and you'll find the right person. Keep being nice.

Personally, this is the case with my favorite riding horse, and a friends little dog. Both are quirky. Both took a long time to trust me, and I love both more than similar critters who are flawless and always nice.

    I was the "nice guy" to a girl I met online, we met for coffee and she repeatedly bailed out or turned down offers to meet again, despite claiming she was interested. Pretty much I asked a third or fourth time if she wanted to see a movie we previously both said we wanted to see. When she said she had already planned to see it with her sister, that was it. Clearly she wasn't interested, and she wasn't nice enough to step up and face the awkwardness of admitting it to me. I'd rather be turned down then led on. I wasn't a dick or anything, I just responded with "Okay, I understand" and never replied again, and she never replied back.
    Since then I just try to be more myself, and avoid trying to be polite and "just be". This hasn't worked out any better, but I think it's more inline to just how socially retarded I am. The whole idea of dating and how it goes down is weird to me, I don't really get it. All these sites suggesting to "wait before calling, wait before this or not, pretend to be..." Why not just be you. I don't get this whole advise of appearing disinterested or trying to get a guy to "chase you". Fuck that, I'm not a rapist, I'm not chasing a woman who appears disinterested.

    • @ZarrocLP
      @ZarrocLP 8 років тому +82

      I understand you, you seem to be me maybe about 2 years back, on the right track, but also "hungry" for dates. What I figured out is don't rush dates, just hang out with both genders, this does not only let you have in insight of how certain girls behave and better understand in dates, but it also means you might just make a friend you later ask out, there is no shame in that in fact most the relationship from my friends started from an initial friendship. It also helps acting like yourself around girls, which sounds stupid to some, but does for example help having weird expectations for dates or just feels less nerves.
      I also believe that the stuff online is really missing the point of dating or looking for a relationship. I'd say Dating is about finding a cool person you can be open to more than anyone else and do anything with. I figured such a bond builds up much easier if you're friends first and especially in today s society "strangers" are mistrusted more than ever imo.

They will understand if you mess up, or make mistakes. I know there is some reason for you feeling this way, and I sincerely hope you will learn, that people who are being nice to you genuinely want to be nice to you. I don't feel like there is a way to fail them. It's their choice to be kind to you, and understand you, as well as forgiving you. Don't fear of failing them. I know you won't. Best of luck.

      Thank you! For years in my friend group I was seen as the nice, shy girl. Just recently a few of my friends pulled some shit with me. They thought they could get away without any repercussions since I never used to call anyone out in fear of hurting someone or being seen as mean. Just now I've learned to stand up for myself, and they now view me as the villain. I've learned that you can be nice and obviously stand up for yourself when needed.

    After ten years I've given up on trying to 'be nice'. People aren't worth it. No I'm not talking about being nice only to try to get sex, I mean trying to be kind and caring to everyone I know and follow my feelings. I have no friends, no relationships, no social life, but good riddance all that's gone. Nobody cares, nobody will try to understand you, nobody will bother to put in the effort to appreciate your company and all the effort you put in for other people will just be shrugged away because why would they? unless you're someone they can benefit from, in which case they just take that and go. So where does this leave you? miserably lonely, occasionally coming across a stranger who thinks they care, until they get to know you, then they'll be gone too.

      But that's not always true. Sometimes people reject people that treat them well because they simply don't like the people that treat them well. An uncomfortable truth, but a truth nonetheless. This seems like a pep talk for people that are nice to others and get rejected. "The reason you get rejected is because you're nice to people and that scares them." No, the reason you get rejected is because you have qualities (other than your niceness) that make other people not like you. Maybe you're physically unattractive. Maybe you have an annoying voice. Maybe you're socially awkward. Maybe you smell bad. But generally, the reason that people don't like you is NOT because you're nice.

    @bolivar1789 9 років тому +217

    It is so true. I remembered the great movie Taxi Driver by Martin Scorsese. Remember when Travis ( Robert de Niro ) asks Betsy ( Cybille Shepherd) for a date? She says yes and she is obviously very impressed by him. She even says " I never met someone like you before" in a very tender way. What does he do? He takes her out to a porno movie! Of course she runs away...He does this because he just can't deal with the fact that she may love him. He wants to show her right away how unworthy, dirty,useless he is. Poor guy... Well yes, his case was quite severe, he was traumatised as a soldier. But indeed most of us are disturbed one way or another. That's why I think many people can relate with this quote by Groucho Marx:
    "I don’t want to belong to any club that will accept me as a member".
    And in case that you are the nice one, be consistent: keep being kind no matter what. But if you are permanently being punished for this, look for somebody else. Time of your life and the sanity of your soul are much more important; if you get too much involved with that sort of people you may lose them both. Love does not cure everybody.
    ( As always: thank you very much for this lesson. The actors are great too! )

Being nice may be seen by weakness buy some women of a certain attitude, culture and age and in others as decency, honesty and humility. It's about how you were raised. FYI in my life I have earned more money than I knew what to do with, rock climbed for quite a few years and myself earned degrees from top tier universities but I choose not to flaunt it because I am a person first, not a commodity, a play thing or a trophy and not because my self worth depends on how 'great' people think I am. That is why I can mix with people of differing backgrounds. The problem came down to looking in the wrong places. There are many people who were raised in a similar way to me and that where one should look.

Because at that point, I couldn't take it any longer. Every person has to figure out for themselves what their breaking point is, and then move on. Hopefully that point will be no more than a few months, certainly less than a year.

Surely I was lying is my phone battery was dead and he couldnt reach me. Someone so 'nice', it was unbelievable to him to just accept what I gave him. He near destroyed me with his paranoia. He invented rules for me to stop me from behavior I wasnt showing. He put me in a straightjacket because I was supposed to help him calm his mind. He wanted to draw out "the truth" by pressuring me, picking fights with me, until I would surrender and say it was all fake. But it wasnt fake. My innocent niceness was trampled on, and I turned sour. Our relationship turned resentful, and I was angry with him deep down for years.

    This resonates so much with me.
    I broke up with the nicest person I ever met, just because I could not handle being the "less nice" one in a relationship. At the time, I felt like assessing truthfully both mine and my partner's flaws, while she overlooked anything negative and made me and us, as a unit, feel more special than I felt we actually were. I have yet to find another person that is as kind hearted. And up to this day, I still don't know wether I handled this appropriately.

    I was 23 when I had my first girlfriend. Although the relationship didn't last very long(2 months), I was the happiest I've ever been that time. I thought that now that I finally have a girlfriend, I shouldn't take her for granted. I called her every night, asked her how her day went, always told her she's beautiful, took her out whenever I could, paid for almost everything, never held back from kissing her. Then one night before going to bed, she suddenly asked me if we should start seeing other people. When we got to talk in person, she said even with all the effort I put in, she just doesn't feel it. Breaking up didn't make anymore sense even when she told me I was the best boyfriend she ever had, she even told her friends I was "perfect". Anyways she said it'd be better if someone else who deserves me had me instead of her having me. I still don't get it. I loved her, and I was prepared to handle whatever imperfections I may have seen and work it out. Everything I did for her I didn't even ask anything in return. Right now I really hope that she's right that there is someone else for the both of us.

    "Nice guys finish last." We're referring to Nice Guy ™ here, not just being nice. This type of person uses his niceness expecting everyone else to treat him nice and to get what he wants. He'd rather cheat, lie, neglect, or be Nice about problems than face hard circumstances. He operates on child logic and hasn't grown into an adult. He can't treat women as people but rather puts them on pedestals. His mindset and attitude pushes girls away without him knowing, and he never learns from his mistakes. That is why Nice Guys finish last.

      @venim1103 8 років тому +1

      How is niceness "child's logic"? I mean, I have to agree that not treating women as people and putting them onto pedestals is the main reason why some nice people have hard time finding a partner. Those kind of people mix up their feelings with their ideals and basically end up in an unnatural mindset. Some nice people also assume that by being nice they will be awarded which is just a sign of selfishness, nothing to do with them being a nice person.
      I am a nice person, but I know that I can not use the same skills of persuasion with people in general (being nice and honest) and with situations where I'm trying to find a partner. Everyone has their own way of dealing with problems and nice people have many excellent tools in their disposal to face hard circumstances. I don't see there being anything wrong with just accepting the challenge and being nice about it OR being nice to people and avoid the situation if possible.
      In my opinion the worst thing would be to angrily accept and face the circumstance and then blame other people for it, which is what many people do. How is that considered being an adult?!
      In my opinion being nice is a social skill, many times also a natural behavior.

    • @DarkDruid7
      @DarkDruid7 8 років тому +3

      "Child logic" isn't referring to the act of being nice here. For all intents and purposes, keep being nice.
      Rather, I was referring to the mentality that if you are nice to others, others SHOULD return the favor somehow. But this simple truth is that life doesn't work this way. Not everyone will like you and some will simply hate you on principle alone.
      I don't understand your point about not wanting to use the skills of niceness and honesty to find a partner. The former is important toward not being an douche, and the second is probably the most important. Honesty cuts through the lies on both sides and is the quickest way to reveal what you don't want. Unfortunately, many Nice Guys ™ would rather tell a nice lie than be painfully honest.
      Once again, it is important to distinguish from being a Nice Guy™ and simply a nice person.

      Also I don't think that the problem is that she have a bad image about herself but that she thinks she can do better then the nice guy.
      After she has her share of disappointments she will settle with the nice guy (if is still around), probably out of fear to be lonely but she will never offer herself to him as much as she would do with a guy that she is really attracted to.
      Sorry to disappoint you but a women is not attracted to a guy just because he has all the qualities she believes she needs, attraction is there or is not. When she'll want a child you will have a chance because then they are more pragmatic and do their life choices with their brain.

      To elaborate on my first comment: I disagree with Crunch Foe.I believe that you can just reject niceness, without having low self esteem or a lot of insecurities. People can be nice to you with out liking you as a person, only being nice to you, to get something from you. This is a 'niceness' you need to reject. Doing so does not make you have self-esteem issues. How ever if you need to always have other people be nice to you, that is a sign that you have poor self-esteem and insecurities.

Boundary setting is a form of kindness to the offender as well as to one’s self. It shows self love and dignity as well as highlighting to the person that while they may be cool with them that they need to respect those boundaries.

    one thing about men I noticed is that when they are interested in you they show it so much that it can be a little uncomfortable. They are like dogs with the puppy eyes that you just don't know what to do with and you barely know them too.

    It's called self sabotage. The book, "Stop Self-Sabotage" calls this a "giving it away strategy" of sabotaging. The girl got the kind of nice, caring guys she wanted, but she didn't feel she deserved it. So she gave him up by pushing him away. Don't self sabotage. You deserve someone who genuinely cares about your well being

    To be honest, I’m scared of being in a relationship, scared of being hurt and scared of hurting them. I would ignore any possible sign that they’re trying to hint and once they noticed my flaws.....I shut myself out because I want to look good or at least “perfect” at all times because I hate myself.

    • @SuicideRedemption
      @SuicideRedemption 4 роки тому +1

      Sis, we arent here to look "perfect" or attract a man. We are so much more than our bodies and how we look.
      Most people who look like what society says is perfect is full of plastic (literally) and fake. Why be like that?why be shallow or vain? You are better than that. You are worth more than that. You can do so much more with your life than that.
      You can literally help change the world for the better. You can save lives. You can start your own business. Theres so much you are capable of..
      Dont limit to your self worth to something so insignificant and small. You are worth more than that. Dont disrespect your life by saying "I only matter if I look pretty enough to thr rest of the world "
      The world is shit.people is shit. Society is shit. You don't need validation from anyone or anything. Hold your head high and know your worth more than being "arm candy" for some man.
      I'm not dissing men. But I am saying we arent here to please men. And not having a man doesnt mean something is wrong with you. Not looking like what society tells you to look like doesnt mean you are ugly. Society is ugly
      Hang in there .

I’m not interested in a person who will be attracted to me because I treat them badly, in fact if I treat people badly I’ll get nothing for sure.

      There is this thing where you should appreciate things no matter how trival they seem to be.
      I've been around the world once or twice. Based of my observations you should probably smile at the person who smiles at you. Be a little more grateful. Without that childish thinking, the world tends to be a much darker place.
      I also assume based off of you comments that you take most things for granite? oh that's right of course you don't. especially not kindness. You seem to be full of it.

The key to determining if a " too nice" person is genuine or not is to pray for a spirit of discernment to feel energy & if it vecks your spirit after prayer it's probably not genuine.

      You may as well said _"dont be a 'nice guy' be a nice guy._" Which is actually what we're saying, the people you're calling _"nice guys"_ aren't by definition nice. so instead of corrupting the term nice and foresaking anyone who is genuinely nice, good and pleasant, why don't you call them what they are: _Assholes._

    It's somewhat an okay video but, remember even if a person that likes you is "nice" you don't owe them anything back. This is especially true in the nice guy ideology, which is total shit. If you're man and whine about how you are always nice to women in how you approach them, compliment, etc, women still don't owe you intimacy back... they are their own autonomous person.

    • @roni6596

      +monica perez I think you missed the point of the video. It doesn't have to do anything with THOSE nice guys. It's about persons like me, (I think of myself as someone kind to others) that offer people care and are good listeners, are concerned about others well being, and don't expect some reward/etc for being who they are. I've had people come and go in my life, and what I noticed is a part of them are afraid of sincerity and push you away, and I find that really irrational. I don't force my self into anyone's life or problems, and I don't think anyone owes me anything. This video just clarified some things for me as to why they might be pushing genuine care away.

      Yes but if you were considerate of people and helped them out and every time, when there was an opportunity for them to help you out or be considerate of you, they were not, / did not, then perhaps you'd decide not to he considerate or helpful to them 'cos they're selfish. There is such a thing as being selfish, which you are verging on advocating. It may be true that men should not be nice to girls, because the girl might think he wants sex back and that could scare her. (though one guy I knew was nice to a girl and told her he didn't want anything from her.. and it worked in his favour.. that was smart)

    • @boliussa
      @boliussa 8 років тому +4

      ***** What I was saying was to Monica.. her idea that people can be nice to you and you owe them nothing.. true but if you never return niceness it sounds like selfishness. You should define "ulterior motive". If a guy sees a hot girl, it makes him feel happy, and he might naturally be nice to her.. Maybe he has a hope that she might like him back.. but it's not necessarily part of a cunning plan.. Men are often nice to women that are attractive, and that can be because it's almost like a gift when they appear into view, and they want them around. And that doesn't work well for those "nice guys".

    • @boliussa
      @boliussa 8 років тому +3

      ***** Well that's not what monica said and if she meant that then she should have said it. But bear in this in mind, if a guy buys a girl a drink and she thinks it's just to get in her pants, and she doesn't agree with that, then she shouldn't accept a drink.. I suppose a lot of these women are just getting a free lunch.

I find myself constantly thinking "Your not nice. Your hiding something, your pretending to be nice so i'll trust you and you'll hurt me." So in short both nice and not nice people end up being rejected.

    My own opinion of nice people (me being one of them) comes along with the quote:
    "Fear the anger of a kind and gentle man."
    Just because someone is nice does not mean they are fine being mistreated or disrespected. It will build and build until finally they will release it - and then, you will know the true, must justified form of anger.

    I think there's an aspect of it where we're aware predators often come off as consistently "nice" (for a certain amount of time.) And we're essentially waiting for the catch. So when that's just someone's genuine personality we're not just insecure, but doubting them due to the actions of manipulators who act similarly but actually do have evil intentions. Especially for women, it's a necessary kind of vigilance that unfortunately can easily turn into paranoia.

      The girl ended up with the genuinely nice guy at the end of the video. The point of the video seemed to be try not to be afraid of "niceness" think about why something that's actually nice that someone does or says makes you uncomfortable in order to look into yourself and accept yourself. While at the same time keep being kind, because eventually that kindness will get through to the right person. My own note would be that that kindness has to be genuine to be relevant in order for it to eventually work it's way into the heart of another.

    @Catholic_Fiat33 7 років тому +2

    I agree,...you love a super nice person when you've recently been treated badly. But it's hard to tell what's motivating the 'niceness'. If it's just how they are with everyone or if they are attracted towards us in particular. There's a sense that they are projecting what they like about you, and also a sense that they are hiding their real personality. It could also be a person who's obsessed with what people think about them, so being nice is a kind of social compulsive disorder. It is a million times better when someone doesn't like you but later starts to like you because they got to know you. It feels genuine.
