I think nice guys are underrated. Fakebook is crap. In the real world, nice guys do better. Forget the myth treat them mean to keep them keen too!!!! But!!!! Shyness is another matter.
Ah, I have some lyrics to explain. x If I loved you, Time and again I would try to say All I'd want you to know. If I loved you, Words wouldn't come in an easy way Round in circles I'd go! Longin' to tell you, But afraid and shy, I'd let my golden chances pass me by! Soon you'd leave me, Off you would go in the mist of day, Never, never to know how I loved you If I loved you.
Young men watch too many movies. The plot is always some guy who's fat or a "nerd" and he has his eye on the pretty girl. She's the popular cheerleader type and she is trapped in a world of heartless mean men. Once she sees a guy who is nice that's all it takes. Life long love and even though this other guy is not 6'3 with a six pack he's nice and that what counts. Too many men with nothing to offer honestly think they are entitled to this and they get angry and upset when simple manners don't get them sex. Looks are not everything but they for example don't have a good job or hygiene. They don't like feminism since they feel it means they don't get dates. And they expect some model level women to be their mom and submit like it's 1955. It's not like that anymore. It's the classic incel/ nice guy dilemma. They just don't get the concept of other men being nice. Everyone but them is a mindless ass. They also usualy get REALLY not nice when they get rejected. I've seen several Tinder conversations that go from "hello pretty lady, I am a gentleman, may I take you out?" to "you are a whore anyway. I can do better." It's kind of scary and it gives me perspective on how hard women can have it sometimes. Women do like nice guys but not if nice is a transaction. Most men who say they are nice think it earns them sex. Women don't like that feeling. It's also why I think some of them like to pay on dates. It's then clear she is independent and you did not do anything for her.
If you’re shy because you’re reserved, that’s fine. If you’re shy because you’re timid and insecure, then it can be a hurdle toward bettering yourself in life.
Shucks, Candy, that was pretty! I don't know why I'm shy. I always have been. I guess I'm just precious. Anakin, what you say may be true, but I am not like that. Just saying. I don't expect anything, and I don't particularly want anything. Sex is something in life I could take or leave. Frankly, it no longer appeals to me. Maybe that would change if I actually got close to someone, but that never happens. What I don't know doesn't hurt me a bit. I just want to be good to women, because I think women are cool.
I rarely see a woman I'm even attracted to. Usually if I like someone I'll let them know. In the past I've written creepy letters. It is my way.
