  The most obvious sign of a Nice Guy is someone who doesn't understand why they're not rewarded with sex for doing something "good." Be it holding a door open for someone or driving a friend home when they're too drunk to drive, Nice Guys are obsessed with what you owe them for not leaning into their worst fantasies. There's no cosmic force that tallies up your good deeds in order to dish out an appropriate amount of rewards, and if you're doing something specifically because you want to be rewarded, they aren't actually good deeds. A popular unattributed quote sums it all up nicely: "Women are not vending machines that you put kindness coins in until sex falls out."

  (#3) Nice Guys Dish Out Backhanded Compliments

  It's really easy to give a compliment that has zero subtext. "Those are nice shoes." "Your hair looks great." "What a great apartment." People (not just women) love hearing those things and they don't make the person you're complimenting wonder what you meant by giving said compliment. The problem with Nice Guys' compliments is that they carry a subtext with them that says, "You could be better at this thing." For instance, saying that someone has nice hair even though it's frizzy is a Grade-A backhanded compliment, and it's something that Nice Guys do all the time. Cut it out, dummies.

  (#11) Nice Guys Go From 0 to 100 Instantly

  One of the strangest things about Nice Guys is how quickly they escalate things with unsuspecting women. There are hundreds of catalogued exchanges between Nice Guys and the objects of their affection where they start with "you seem really nice" and jump to "I would make sure you were cared for and protected." No one wants to hear a stranger tell them that they're the only person who can protect them. When a Nice Guy says something along those lines, it usually comes with an implied "or else." Take it easy when you're talking to someone. You don't have to prove how great you are in an opening text message; you just have to prove you're not a creep.

  Nice Guys are notorious for bringing up the dreaded "friendzone." Unfortunately for them, the friendzone isn't a thing that actually exists. It's just called being friends. Is it really so bad that someone likes your personality enough to be friends with you? Instead of turning every interaction that you have with a woman into an attempt to weasel your way into some sex, why not try having a genuine conversation? Or just never talk to anyone again.

  Somewhere in your dating life, you came across The Game by Neil Strauss and felt like it held all the answers. Or maybe you saw Swingers and adopted Vince Vaughn's rule about waiting two days to call a woman. Whatever the case, Nice Guys treat relationships like they're an RPG – that if they spend enough time grinding XP, they'll become a true chick magnet. There's no strategy to dating aside from being yourself, learning from your mistakes, and hoping that you'll be present enough to realize in the moment when the right person has come along.

  (#4) They Can't Fathom Why Someone Would Want A Little Personal Time

  If you're a Nice Guy who actually managed to nab himself a girlfriend, then congratulations. Now stop smothering her! If someone wants to hang out with her friends or sit at home alone, she isn't devising a perfect plan to cheat on you. She's just decompressing. Being in a relationship doesn't mean you're supposed to spend every hour of your day obsessing about your significant other; it doesn't even mean that you're going to see your significant other every day. If your partner or the person you like is busy or just needs some space, then give her all the space she needs. They'll appreciate that you respected her feelings, and you might even get around to building that shelf you've been thinking about.
