I'm tired of being nice

It seems no matter how nice I am to other people, nobody appreciates it. Or anything I do, for that matter. If there's one thing I've learned from my life, you can't get anywhere from being nice. It seems all the assholes are the ones who are successful, have the hot chicks and the nice cars, while the nice guys are alone, drive shitty cars, and live with their parents.

People suck.
 
There is a difference between being nice and being a doormat my friend. Being nice gets you all sorts of things. Example: I was nice to the hotel clerk on my last business trip despite it being 1:00 am and having spent 14 hours in the air to get there. She upgraded me to a suite just because I was nice.
 
Uber's got it exactly right. You can be nice without being walked all over. Be willing to help without being the one who does it all. Be assertive without being a jerk. Be self confident without being arrogant.
 
Another thing to consider is: to whom are you being nice? Don't waste your kindness, care and other good stuff on people who suck. Treating everyone well cheapens the value of good gestures, save it for those who deserve it. :thumbsup:
 
Hang out with stupid people who can't tell the difference between a jackass and a nice guy but prefer the jackass because he seems more "interesting". Then fuck them.
 
Some good advice on this thread, for what it is worth, I used to be a nice guy and have slowly been turning into a prick. I seem to get things done faster now more than anything. In fact I do less nice things for people now. It all comes down to the other person now. I will try to start nice, but if I don't hear anything that is within reason, fuck it.


The most successful people are the ones who know when to be nice and when to be dicks. FYI, They are all dicks.
 
it would then make it sound like a "gays only" would you like that? jk:D

i've been told that i'm nice and all, and after a while it does get annoying cause that girls that say it never want to do anything with you. "Yeah, you're a really good/nice friend" she would say
and in my head i'm saying "fuck friends, why can't you say fuck friends!!!" :happysad:
i'm sick of being nice, gimmi some lovin or something. It's very frustrating ladies!!!
 
dude, if there were no girls in here, it would be a sausage fest with only one perspective. at least let them try to explain why women seem to prefer assholes to nice guys.
 
The problem is, it doesn't help if you look at the situation as either black or white/nice or prick. This is going to sounds really after-school-specialish, but fuck it: the best thing you can do is be yourself, and if people don't like it--forget them. It's not worth it. (Unless you're some sociopathic serial killer, then you might want to get some help. :tongue: )
 
The problem is knowing who is worth being nice to and who isn't. I tend to be a generally nice person, but if I see that I'm being taken advantage of I'll try to be more assertive and put my foot down. That's when people leave because I'm not being a door mat anymore. It's a hard balancing act.
