Question: Your perception of a 'nice guy'!?
When you conventionally think of a nice guy how do you perceive him!? On a scale of 1 being hideous and 10 being unbearably attractive how would you rate the nice guy!? What are his traits and his behaviors that you perceive!?Www@QuestionHome@Com


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
When I imagine a nice guy, I see someone who is humble and generous!. He is amicable and tries his best to help others, always there for his friends whenever they need someone to talk to!. His presence is very much appreciated, and he makes people feel good about themselves!.

Physically, he is decent looking!. But his personality and niceness is what makes him "unbearably attractive!." :)Www@QuestionHome@Com

I traced the definition of 'nice' all the way to the word 'presence'!. To me, there is only one person who is respected enough by me to have his presence in my life!. He knows who he is!. As do I!.

I don't really know 'how' attractive this man is!. I've seen and enjoyed the company of many beautiful men in my life and he is as beautiful as any of them!. Even the ones I've dreamed of for years!.

His traits and behaviours are lovable, enjoyable, compatible, patient, kind, has extremely high morals, is faithful and gentle, and maintains his self-control!.

Yes, ladies!. He's real!

There is physical attractiveness and personality!. I hear George Clooney is a nice guy and most woman go ohos and ahas over him!. The home less guy living behind the dumpster may have a heart of gold but most woman will not say they are attracted to him!.

I assume you want what woman think!. I am not a woman but they say they like a good sense of humor!. It is fair to say single woman are looking for a good mate, provider and a father to their kids (so some nurturing ablity, kind, nice guy!?)!. So how does NICE GUY fit in!?

There is no answer because your question is obtuse!.

It is said, urban legend, myth or may be true, woman like the bad boy, the jerk, the alpha male!. Some say woman want to fix some men!? However it comes back to the total package, looks (face, body, height, athleticism, health), confidence, wealth and personality, not necessarily in that order!.

Some say nice guys finish last!. Woman want nice guys but not wussies!. They want MEN!. Some woman however are bossy and want a door mat man I suppose!.

There are many people and as there are opinions of attactiveness!. Beauty is in the eye of beholder!. You can only go so far on looks alone or personality alone!.

A nice guy, which I self identify as, is friendly, smiles, respects other, has good social skills in conversation and personal interaction, compassionate and honest!. I am not all things at all time and I can have righteous anger and people know not to F with me!. Being a nice guy does not mean you can't be a leader and aggressive some times!.

There is too nice I guess, when it is fake and not sincere or you let people take advantage of you!. Woman don't find that attractive!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

There are two views that can be taken when looking at a guy!. The internal and the external, and it is the external that I hate most and will discuss first!. It is the view that something should be judged by the way it looks!. If the guy is ugly, the girl will simply pass him by, without even a glance, and that is the view that modern society has adopted, and I blame it on TV, and the fact that people don't really have time to search in-depth and really get to know someone!. TV displays everything as though it is meant to be viewed from the outside, and the TV also displays everything as shallow, but then again, it does portray girls and guys who judge by looks!. Shallow!. Then of course, there is the internal, which involves getting to know someone and then judging them!. That is the basis that I work on when I meet someone, and I can't say that I don't have a lot of ugly friends because of it, but in all honesty I don't really care, because I know that these people have a lot of depth to them, and I would rather associate myself with them rather than any pretty, yet external judging people!. As you may have found out, my perception of a nice guy is one who, apart from everything else that I have said, knows how to pamper a girl, talk nicely, act chivalrously, and knows how to warm a heart, because that is what a woman loves, and it is what they define as a nice guy, and usually, guys who have this sort of understanding and relation to women will have a lot of depth to them, and will hopefully be judged internally!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

I'll be honest and say the first thing that pops into my mind is a weak, passive and uninteresting guy who would probably be about a 5-7 on your scale!. My mind is subject to popular opinion like everyone else's!.

But if I think about it for more then 5 seconds I will remember that I know a few nice guys personally and they are capable of being independent, intelligent and I would say even viciously cynical and self assured when pressed!.

I don't know which view you were looking for so I gave you both :oWww@QuestionHome@Com

I think of a 'nice guy' as a guy who has no real life goals!.!.!. he panders to women in order to feel good about himself!.

source!? i've been there!.

Attractive!? It varies!. Sustainable, happy relationships!? No!.!.!. the nice guy gets lost in the identity of the other person!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Someone who is positive, cheerful and likes people!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
