- I don't know about number 4 above, but totally disagree with number 2.
- As for 1 and 3, I know exactly what you mean. I usually attract women
- because "I'm really a nice guy." I treat them like queens and try hard
- to make their happiness my desire. More than once I've told "you are
- such a nice guy. You are so special." I can understand being rejected
- and dumped for being a jerk, but I have hard time reasoning with rejecting
- someone because they are "too good to be true" and because "they are
- so nice."
-
- I thought about starting to act on the bastard side, but that's not me.
- I can't justify acting like that just to please that someone. Because,
- sooner or later they'll find out that I'm a nice guy and then gues what...
- it's all over.
-
- My advice, just be yourself and you'll run into that special one who
- appreciates you and your qualities
-
- Best of luck.
