I'd much rather a guy who's got his own opinions, and willing to challenge me when he disagrees.

Again, "nice guy" != "pushover".
When I'm in a relationship, we take turns picking which movie we want to go see. I'll pick up the tab at the restaurant. I'll try to enjoy her hobbies as much as she tries to enjoy mine. I'll ask how her day was and actually pay attention. I try to integrate with her friends rather than continually dragging her to be with mine. That sort of stuff. And of course I'm single.
But I can tell you that I know of at least 3 ex's, all of whom dumped me, that are in abusive relationships. Two of them physically. It really does take a groin kick to the esteem when you get dumped for a guy that beats women up.
