^^ hahaha.. This puts credence in my theory that being an ass sometimes pays dividends..

the guy she mentions wasn't nice, he was a doormat. Big difference.

Hence her comments about "if your girl is out of line, tell her". Sounds like the guy has no spine and takes alot of crap with her. I could see her frustration.

My question is why is the woman giving the guy crap if shes just gonna whine about him not doing anything about it? Seems kind of backwards to me. If you dont give him crap the problem's solved

Very true. Like I was saying, she obviously wants a "man's man", as there's some odd comments she makes on there. Like wanting a guy to pi$$ in public, wanting him to love sports, and hoping he'd ride a granny's bumper on the freeway. She sounds like a bit of a redneck, at least at heart. Why she'd go for such a soft-spoken guy when she's attracted to the complete opposite is beyond me, that's her own fault. Not every girl wants a guy that "manly", if that's the word for it.

But I just mean in general, girls want a guy with at least some backbone. In terms of putting her in her place when she gets annoying; everyone gets in scraps, I dont care who you are. Maybe you had a bad day and you say some things that you dont mean and later regret when you settle down. It happens to the best of us. But if when that happens to you, you drop your head and tuck your tail between your legs, she's probably going to lose respect for you once she settles down and replays the moment in her head. I think it just goes back to basic primal instincts, in wanting a strong confident man that they feel safe around and will provide for them. It's sexual attraction in its most primal form.

It doesn't mean you have to be one of those arrogant dicks we all see every day. You can still be a nice guy and have a little backbone. That's all I mean...and on a side note, I would never go for a girl like this one that wrote the article. I bet she's a firecracker, I hate girls like that.

It's hard to have just a friendship with someone who has no backbone.

Never has a movie given out truer advice (40 year old virgin):

[To Andy before he hits on Beth] There are three rules when it comes talking to women. Number 1 ask questions, don't say anything, because women, all they wanna do is talk about themselves so you're just gonna let them do that. 2 be cool and 3 be kind of a dick. Look be like David Caruso in "Jade".

As Hab said, this wasn't a girl who didn't like 'nice', this was a woman who didn't like 'spineless'.

Be all the nice you can, but don't think that agreeing with everything she says, or putting up with whatever she does, is the way to make her like you. She'll just end up losing respect for you.

My question is, how many pM's has she recived since she posted that?

It sounds like being nice isn't the problem but rather that he doesn't stick up for himself or provide an opinion. I think there's a big difference there. There's no reason you can't be nice and express yourself.

I don't know it's a two year old posting that I found on Craigslist that made me laugh.
