Women value a man who doesn't always want them physically because almost all guys want them physically. Don't be mean, use that kindness to support them, and eventually you'll find someone who genuinely is attracted to you in return. By which point you'll be a better person for it.

Just realize it has nothing to do with you being "nice" but everything to do with her not being sexually attracted to you. If some random woman whom I don't find sexually attractive is nice to me, I will respond in kind, but I won't sleep with her... because one has nothing to do with another. I don't know why that's such a hard concept to grasp.

I know what you're saying but that's not what I'm saying I'm talking about how I take them get to know them as a potential partner but then I always get friend-zoned then they go off to see the mean guy or bad boy also you're kind of rude not really positive I don't like your energy 😒

Yeah you sound whiney - it's not a trait that most women find sexually attractive. Good luck though.

9"If you have nothing nice to say into the world please just keep it to yourself" is not an argument. With all due respect You asked a question and he gave you his opinion as an answer respectfully on the comments section, you just said that you're a "nice guy" but as we can see your post doesn't really match your comments, if you aren't going to read, respect, and think about other people's opinions you don't have to ask them to give it to you at the first place. And with this mentality you won't fix a thing.

1No, do not be mean. This goes deeper than just women not wanting “nice guys”. If you’re genuinely nice, don’t change. I believe the women that actually like you as more than a friend, won’t put you in the “friend zone”.

Women are hypergamous.. brain is hardwired to always select the best mate they think they can get. If you're being excessively nice to them it signals to them that you are in a scarcity mindset and the hamster in there head sees through that and starts telling them to keep looking. In short you need to become spoiled for choice. Start spinning plates.. hitting up multiple avenues/dating scenes. Most women out here have 100s of matches every day lol. Lets be realistic. It's impossible to be overly nice when you are spoiled for choice.

Perhaps it's because you flew too close to sun and got burnt. In order words you have already gotten too close to them in term of the relationship you already have with them and now they don't want to ruin that already set relationship. That explains the routine phrase you alway receive "I don't want to loose you as a friend".

Perhaps, but if they were truly interested in going out with you, they would have stated so, or mayb they were just trying to let you down easily instead of getting a direct NO. You got friendzoned even before you knew it. But you never know what going on the mind of a woman 🤷

I am no expert on women, but from what I have seen atleast, they may simply be looking for a more physically attractive man without having the self-control or physical safety to be honest about that. When I was a teenager I was told by people on the internet that women are drastically wired cerebrally different than men, and have little to no actual sapience, simply brutal instinctual mimickry of the male sapience to serve the sociopathic ends of genetic propagation with the healthiest mate... I have since been strongly convinced this is not true, and women are genuinely sapient humans who are practically just men but softer and more feminine. I have since seen many women who are genuinely very altruistic and honest people who are truthfully looking for a long-term relationship with a good personality, with little regard to sexual attractiveness, although not everyone is built for this sort of relationship. Also? Solely choosing people for sex is not wrong. It is sad and leads to the exclusion of many good people, but as far as I can tell? Life is not fair, and I assume you want the truth, so here is my attempt at that.

5Johnathan, it feels like you are dropping a confession before you have given these women ample time to like you. And there is no problem with turning a long time friend into a girlfriend. You simply have to let them know you are attracted to them little by little. You can't just act like a women's best friend with no hint of sexual attraction to her if you eventually want to confess. I always make these boundaries very clear. And I never have problems going out with female friends. After all, every great love starts out as a friend. As long as you set a clear boundary. So, in short.... Better timing. And you need to let these women know you are attracted to them as time goes on leading up to a confession. Also, I've seen jonesy post some weird comments about woman. Trust me when I say this. He doesn't know anything about interacting with women 😆😆😆 And is probably in an eternal friend zone.

9It depends on what type of a "nice guy" you are, are you expressing your kindness geniusly or not.., be nice but not in a dumb way. There's a "smart nice guy" and a "dumb nice guy" , and the majority of women are not attracted to the dumb nice guy , but also the majority of women are not attracted to the mean guy.

4If a guy says or has in his bio "just want to have fun" or any other iteration of having 'fun' I see it as a red flag. Anyone else? Because we all know what 'fun' they are talking about. And that 'fun' isn't all that enjoyable with men who don't have any feelings or any consideration for the other person.

Do people encourage you to keep looking for love out of pity or out of belief in you, And do you believe these people? I know supporting others is cool and all but do you give others your pity? Is it out of hope they will keep searching for love and find it? I'm curious

I'm in a bit of a bind. I still have feelings and regular thoughts about time spent with my ex. But I know the relationship wasn't good for me. It was toxic and she wanted to change me as a person. And I know this is wrong but I can't help but think...

(I feel like im accidentally gonna be calling alot of people out on this one) You know what bothers me? people looking for someone who is "kind" or "sweet" or "nice". Blech. Too gentle for my taste. And, if i am being honest. . . too fragile too. Let me fill ya in on a little secret: "kind" is overrated and constantlty being sweet is boring. Im they playful type. I enjoy being slightly teased and mess with, and naturally im the type to do it right back. You know what isnt fun? When you want to have fun little banter but the other person just aint having it. Like i said, too delicate. Anyone else get where im coming from? Where you just want someone to mess with you in a way that makes you smile, where you are definitely gonna dish it back to them 10-fold? Nah, thats probably just me. 🤗

I've always appreciated, loved, and envied, my husband's family and how they work. I'm still married, but we're getting a divorce in a few months, so I'm only on here to find friends and people to talk to. But, am I the only one that appreciates my partner's family and how they work? My husband's family will not hear a peep from him for months to maybe a year, if not more, and he'll make the journey to see them unannounced, and still be welcomed with open arms. It infuriates me, but it also warms my heart, how they react to his "surprise" visits. Where, on the other hand, I couldn't go barely 1 month without seeing my family, without my father causing a ruckus as to why I haven't visited my parents in so long.....at one point he said because I didn't care about them, my mom (who I love very much) got into a "car accident" and got hurt. Later I was told the truth, by my mom, and they just ran over a raccoon and no one got injured...... really? Does anyone else feel this way, or is it just me?
