Dear Jay,

you can't be honest anywhere.

Sorry, but no.

Jay is like The Flood's relationship guru.
The only thing I can say is it's fitting.
Can I be honest here?

In my teens, I was totally a Nice Girl. I really, really liked this one guy, and basically all I did for a longggggg time was follow him around, try to do things for him, fawn over him, put him first over other friends who were much better to me...on and on and on. I totally couldn't understand why he wouldn't drop everything and realise that I was the only girl who could ever possibly be right for him. And you know what it got me? Diddly-squat, that's what. When I fiiiiiiiiiiinally confessed my feelings (and was very politely and graciously rejected), I realised that if I'd done so right at the start, I may have actually had a chance, however slim, and by being a wimp for as long as I was (an embarrassingly long time, trust me), I'd basically screwed myself something over something chronic.

Life is learning experience. Sometimes, the lessons hurt. That lesson hurt for quite a while, but at least the pain made it stick. It taught me how to value myself, how to go after what I want, basically a bunch of useful things. Pretty much everything I know about relationships, I learned by doing some really dumb stuff. But since it all ended up leading to a wonderful relationship with a great guy who makes me very happy, I have to say it was totally worth it.
One of my friends at my old college did that; she ended up in the same situation, but had zero chance from the get go.

Conversely, the reason why I'm cynical to the whole nice guy thing is it burned me a couple times. Girls think you're too meek. Bantering, being assertive, and being a little bit of a jerk (in a nice way) is the key.

Antagonizing me to build a false sense of worth is so damn cute.

-I was here

of course being nice doesn't get you a girl. It helps, but anyone who thinks that being "nice" alone will get them a date is deluded. Of course, most of these "nice guys" are either just douche nuggets who think they're nice when they're just pricks trying to get laid, OR they're fat, ugly neck beard basement dwellers who also share the aforementioned douche nugget qualities.

Jay acts like she's better than everyone else simply because she's a chick.
I hope she chokes to death.

Damn you. I know I'll lose this.

I tried the whole gallon of milk without puking challenge. I got to maybe 3 litres.

I was asked once, by a girl I hooked up with many times in college, why I was so nice to everyone. My response was, "It's how I was raised."

A competitive players main goal is to win.
A casuals main goal is to have fun regardless of whether that results in a win or loss.
It has nothing to do with individual skill or knowledge, it has to do with the reason you play.

TIL being nice is looked down upon in this establishment.
Not really, being nice is pretty much a baseline requirement for a decent human being.

The problem is when you start thinking that being nice is a viable selling point for yourself.

Over the past two years or so, I think I've developed a different but very related problem. I tend to be too nice and end up with people thinking their in with me or even that I'm interested in them when I actually kind of want to get away. If I were a little meaner, that probably wouldn't happen as much as it does.
