Title: Do nice guys finish last?
Post by: Boost on May 01, 2011, 11:38:32 AM
I'm seeing it more and more. In the workplace and in relationships. Nice guys get totally trampled.

People take advantage of the nice guy, he's always willing to to help, or willing to listen.

The arrogant, ruthless alpha usually bullies his way to the top of the ladder in the boardroom and the bedroom

Thoughts.....

Nice guys do finish last. They know that the woman should finish several times before they finally do.;

Boosts mom is quite the guzzler, I hear she likes to go to the sperm bank, and when they tell her shes too old to conceive, she says 'thats ok' and pulls a straw out of her purse.

You can be nice but tough when it counts. Tough balancing act but it can be done. The term "nice guys finish last" speaks to inner weakness and yes those types do always finish last.

Are you saying Boosts mom hides inside the sperm bank and after they close she puts a sign on the mail slot that says "Night Deposit" and eagery waits on the other side with her mouth wide open?

I agree with this.

Always give the impression you would do anything for anybody but once someone crosses the line and asks you to basically be a chump then put them in their place.

well in general whenever you over extend yourself to anyone you will regret it

with women calling to much, being a yes man, will get her to look for other men, but this dont mean one has to be a asshole, just dont act like a girl, women still prefer men not little cry baby bitches

 Sometimes being a nice guy can get you ahead.

 If you move to a small town, being a nice guy will get you great connections and open doors. People will open up to you and things will happen.

 In a big city being a nice guy gets you nowhere. Just trample anyone you can and do whatever you gotta do. But if you do this in a small town you will get ostrasized from the community.

 Same with relationships. Usually it's best to just be cutthroat and do what you gotta do. But sometimes being nice will get you what you want.

 Both ways are good in different situations.

I have always been too nice all my life.

these days I don't give a shit about anything and don't let anybody take advantages of my generosity

unfortunately, the past sticks so some people still try to take advantage, so if I have to move for another job and start all over again somewhere where I don't know anybody, i'll definitly present myself as a guy you don't want to fuck with right from the start.

I'm gonna go against the grain for a second here....



Initially I think nice guys finish last, but in the long run, they get the better end of the deal, and it will pay off!

I've always been considered "too nice" in the past, and at time it was a major downer and played against me, but now, I'm completely content with how I was and where I ended up!

This is from a good friend of mine.  The race of life is not about who finishes "first", but instead who and what in life "lasts".  Think about it. 

Good guys, good girls, good people, good friends, good memories, they all "last".  Nuff said.

Nope.  I suppose that is a compliment and I'll pass it along to my friend.  Those were his words, not mine.  I just thought they were relevant to this topic.

Thanks man, I'm blessed dude... very fortunate!

As cliche as this sounds, one just has to be himself, if he's too nice, then so be it!


Back when I was doing my masters, one of my professors was the Chief Financial Officer OF THE UNIVERSITY,  That guy had an MBA, PHD, and CPA, and made tons of money, he kept repeating through out the semester over and over again "If I am to recommend one thing for you to excel at your jobs, its to just BE NICE - people appreciate that, and it pays off in the end!"

I was a nice guy, and yeah...I can say that nice guys do finish last...but, as I have grown, I have balanced it out, and developed great inner strength...being a good listener is not a fault, it is a asset. Being helpful, is not a fault, but a asset---being too helpful and over extending yourself, is a fault...I had to learn the hard way.

Being a rock that someone can depend on is good, being a doormat that everybody comes to trample on is not...being firm and knowing when to say "no" is the best, instead of always yes, or being a asshole and always saying "no" is the the incorrect way of going about it...

Standing your ground, no mater what---if you believe in what you stand for, in your mind and heart---is The Way...

What some of baser minds would all "faults" others would consider "facets".  It sounds as if you are on the right path.  Well done.

Hey, it's about learning, and making one's weaknesses their strengths
In America its either of two extremes, and never the median...just like being a complete "nice guy" will comeback on you, being a complete asshole will too. Nobody likes to help a complete asshole, and nobody gives a shit if somehing happenes to him, in fact, people root for something to happen to him...
It's also funny that guys who are "nice guys" become "assholes"---if "nice guy" was on the left side, and "asshole" was on the right---you keep going left, you end up going right.

Wimps finish last.  Being nice, respectful of others and respectful of yourself gets you ahead-demand payment for everything you've done, refuse disrespect, be ready to turn your back if you need to, be ready to forgive when its necessary...this gets you ahead.

Sounds just like me.

Ur a big guy so it wouldn't surprise me you are nice for one reason because otherwise it could be too intimidating not because you lack confidence (and just generally that's how you are).

The problem is you act nice and some people think you lack confidence and can be easily manipulated or controlled. Yet it's the opposite. So when they try it on or push it too far you tell them to fuck off. But you let a lot go so they don't get the message.

Anyway i've found that. I have to be a harder upfront. So many people i've told to fuck off in the last few years, a few i was ready to fight but it's amazing how they back peddle to someone much bigger than them when it comes out.

well you still can be a good and respectful guy but you should know how women think so you can adapt to it the right way otherwise they take (and really they will) take advantage of you., they love a man who has decisiveness and self confidence, things they lack in general so they are very attracted to someone who does have these traits.
its just works that you say to a girl she has a nice ass and giving her a wink instead of saying too kind stuff to her and being too respectful and "oprah feminist political correct".

Yes and no, the bully guy might get the promotion or whatever, but he has to also accept that most sensible people can see he is an asshole.
