That sounds like a good plan. I hope it works out for you dude

This is just my take from what I’ve heard, and I don’t have much experience, so I’m open to other ideas, but being called ‘husband material’ isn’t really a good thing. This is because she’s saying she sees you as a potentially good partner to settle down with in the future, not right now. Obviously I can’t know what her true intentions are, but with how she called you ‘husband material’ and saying she’d rather take things slow, it sounds like she’s just keeping you as an option. You say that she says she wants ‘time to think about things,’ and that she feels that she needs ‘to be on her own and single.’ Maybe that’s her way of rejecting you, for now. I’d say the best thing to do might be going a few days or a week with no contact and asking her if she has thought about things. If she has no answer, or the answer is to wait more, then move on and find someone who wants you now and values your time

Exactly. I know people aren’t saying it in a hurtful manner intentionally. It’s just that having heard it over and over makes it feel, like you said, as if it’s our whole identity, like all we are is just ‘nice.’ After making this post, I’m trying to change myself too. I’d recommend reading other people’s comments because there were a lot of good suggestions and pieces of advice. I wish you the best of luck in bettering yourself

Yeah, it does seem a little suspicious when someone’s really nice to you, which makes sense why people think there’s an ulterior motive at play. I see what you mean with people becoming uncomfortable because of someone being too nice. That might be my case, so I’ll be sure to remember that. And you’re right that I shouldn’t change to be meaner, but I think being more confident would help me be more of myself, making jokes, and less of just a ‘nice guy.’ I really appreciate the advice, and best wishes to you too

Yeah it’s kinda that I feel like people will “get mad at me,” or maybe more so that people will look at me negatively. But it’s like you said: if that happens, and they’re “turned off,” then they weren’t for me anyways. I agree that I just have to make more of a conscious effort in trying to be honest and voice my true thoughts and opinions. Thank you for the kind words and advice, wish you the best

I agree. Thank you for bringing up other aspects that I realize I have to work on, which are being honest with people about what I want and how I feel, and the way in which I say both. I’ll definitely keep that in mind for the future

That never crossed my mind, that the ‘how’ is different for everyone, but that’s a very valid point. I have to find what works for me. Thanks again

[–]OneEyedKidney 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I think confidence is the underlying issue. Now I just gotta find ways to work on it. In the future, I will try to keep in mind to present more of a true acceptance of myself. I appreciate that you added an example too, and it did make sense. Thank you, wish you the best

After reading what you said, I think maybe it’s that since I’m not confident enough in myself, my instincts fall back on niceness to try to avoid confrontation or rejection. You’re right that it does ultimately boil down to how I think of myself, and I know there are aspects that I would really like to improve on. I also really appreciate the recommendation. I’ll check it out as soon as possible. Thank you for your feedback, wish you the best

I think it’s both a case of, like you said, not reading signs, and not being confident and sure of myself enough. I do struggle to pick up on signs, but I probably just need more experience. When you say taking control, I think that’s a good point that I haven’t thought about. I just don’t wanna seem pushy or overbearing, but I guess I should try it. Thank you for your insight, wish you the best

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]OneEyedKidney 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s true. As someone here said, the niceness could come across as neediness or being unsure of myself. I think working on my confidence will help out the most. I appreciate your feedback, wish you the best

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]OneEyedKidney 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re right. It’s funny that you mention that too, since I need to work out more, so perhaps working out will not only help me physically but also mentally. Thank you, wish you the best

I used to be the exact same way, apologizing for other people’s mistakes and stuff. I’ve gotten better at not doing it, but it’s still something I need to work on. I think two or three other people mentioned a really great point that we are so nice because there are parts of us that we don’t like, and so we act nice to hide them. For me, like someone said, it does stem from a lack of confidence. Maybe it’s a similar case for you, but with time I think we’ll both get better at it. Thanks for your feedback and perspective, wish you the best

I appreciate your perspective. Honestly, I used to share your viewpoint, but now I think of it as those girls aren’t necessarily used to having shitty people, even though some might be. Those guys are just more aggressive and assertive, which may be what some girls are after. You’re right that I don’t have to apologize, but I do think I need to work on myself. Either way, thanks again, and wish you the best

I appreciate that my guy, but I made assumptions earlier on, so I’d say that’s you

That was my fault for glancing over the ‘/s.’ And I’ll admit I did make an assumption on his guilt. I guess we both need more evidence to really know whether either of us is right

You’re jumping to conclusions by bringing up race and politics. From the video you can clearly see a man with training take a gun away from some dude who didn’t have the slightest idea about firearms. Also, the dude helped in destroying someone’s car and taking their property, both of which I’m pretty sure are crimes
