Some dude from yahoo answers had a cool question. Now, its obvious he hasn’t taken my secret quiz, but ignore that, and focus on his question, and how I answer it.
Question: I’ve always been the nice guy. but its always backfired as truelly said “nice guys finish last” and thats my motto. ok say you are not married no girlfriend and a woman you work with has a thing for you. you know because she flirts and chased you around when you first started at your job and then everyone told you. well problem is shes married. ive always been the nice guy and not done anything. but im starting to sway in my ways. i wouldnt be the one cheating. i would just be getting some tail at work. i know if i had her come into my office and made the first move we would have sex. i think im tired of coming in last. tired of mister nice guy. she wants me, im single, and i wouldnt be cheating. is it ok to be the rebel every once in awhile? can you be naughty and still be an ok guy?
Answer:
Yes you can. This is the middle-ground known as being an “ok guy”. You see, the reason nice guys finish last is because they’re not realistic. They always try to please and do the right thing… and this is actually not genuine. Human nature is not nice… Human nature also has naughty sides… So we don’t trust nice people as we know they’re bound to screws us over one day. People who are realistic have a few flaws here and there, they have a few naughty sides.
So, to kill the nice guy syndrome, you need to accept that some drives and instincts are ok to indulge in. They don’t make you evil, they just make human. You don’t actually need to get laid with that chick… Its enough to let go of the guilt. In other words, you need to make an objective decision.
The reason you’re not going to sleep with her is because married women are dangerous. You don’t know when an angry husband will knock on your door at 3 am with a shotgun. So in other words, make decisions based on objective criteria, not niceness. Now, I’m not saying don’t have morals… But you’re not obliged to a guy you do not know. If it is your friend’s girlfriend, then yes, do not sleep with her. If its random guy you’ve never met, and will never meet, you have no moral obligation to him.
Again, I would recommend not sleeping with her, but out of objective selfish reasons, not because of niceness.
