boluyongp:
Let me help you bro.
Here are the golden rules in relating with women. I learned from experience and books.
From the rules, you will realise what you did wrong.

RULES
1. Be a bit cocky. Act like you don't give a damn. Act like you don't care and not bothered about things.
2. Don't tolerate any nasty behaviour or words. Tell her you don't tolerate such and its unacceptable. She might be testing you with bad behaviour to see if you can handle her. Women like men who show they are not carried away by their beauty. They feel safe if you can correct them. She might grumble and act bitchy in front of you but in her closet she ll be so happy she has found a real man.
3. Don't do favors for her. She might start with asking you to help hold her hand bag for a minute or two for instance. Humorously turn her down. Its a mugu test if she asks for favours initially. Don't fail it pls. Don't also buy gifts, to her, she feels you are trying to buy her or impress her then she may try acting harder to get (sometimes to collect more gifts)
4. Don't spend too much time with her. All the morning texts and calling all the time shows desperation to her. She'll run away. If a dog is chasing you, won't you run? So, quit chasing.
5. Give her her space. Don't choke her. Women are attracted to men they believe are busy and have a life. Stop fixing meetings all the time. Sometimes she wants to be alone or with her female friends. Let her miss you a little. Scarce resources have more value.
6. Be mysterious. Don't pick her calls or reply texts immediately sometimes. Keep her wondering, play on her jealousy instincts. Be unpredictable, women feed on drama. It also shows you are a busy person.
7. Never let her have her way. Take the lead. Be in charge at all times, don't chicken out or bulge to her manipulations. Be calm and surprise her by not exchanging words sometimes and arguing or getting angry. Show her she doesnt have control over your emotions no matter the nonsense she says or do. It shows her you'll be happy, with or without her. Be the boss and the mature one. She ll soon come running after you.

BONUS: If you are stuck in any situation, just ask yourself "What will James Bond do?". Dude, can you imagine James Bond arguing with a woman or acting lovey-dovey? Never!!! Cos he's the boss bro.

I hope this helps. All the best.
Nice tips. My problem with things like this is that it makes all men act the same. Walk into the bar and study how men behave, most of them do the same thing.

I believe in being yourself. Not a woosie. The real you. Find that inner man in you and live it.

Its true that ladies don't value nice guyz cos av had the experience myself ... they tak u for granted once they no say u b nice guy nd u can't hurt dem wic is bad...... they prefa d guyz dat will cheat nd scream on them so dat dey can go back to their room to cry or to NL to share some stupid stories ...... They really don't no your value once u ar nice honestly ....

Lemme say myself for example I don't lik cheatin cos my conscience won't just lemme rest... don't lik to argue or any form of wahala bt ladies tend to see dat as a weakness (wic is not) and they tak if for granted...... But for me I can't chng my nice or peace maker personality just to Mak a lady stay
if she dey find play boy or guys wey get wahala den I can't b her bus-stop... Shikena

I can't imagin telling a girl am no longer intrstd ..... I really can't stand guilt lik dat ... I will always feel lik am d one at fault nd shud av done beta even wen am not...... Thats y I look b4 I leap nd can't date any lady except we av bin frnds nd I really know her attitude


I REALLY CHERISH MY PEACE MIND OOOO...
Re: Why Do Nice Guys Always Get Treated Badly? by kilokeys(m):
when u become too nice.. u become boring.
ladies love mystery. do not be predictable.

add a little dynamics.

haven't u noticed that in ur relationships women thrive on tensions? .

if there is none, she creates one.
is either she makes u sorry for something infinitesimal
or she apologises for something silly

make her ask you these questions
1. do u still love me?
2. would you always be there?


the element of surprise is the best approach with ladies.


for example,
u could just sing for her on valentine's day
and treat her to an expensive dinner on a February 24th.

they say one thing and mean another.
they dont want u to think about them all the time, only babies do that.
they need to fight for ur attention.

they need to know they are in competition with other ladies.

and most importantly they love contrasts..


chubby and smart

smallish with an inflated ego

handsome but soft-spoken

ugly but confident

broke but bold

a funny lawyer

a faithful musician

a playful doctor

a romantic engineer

broses.. its a game.. up ur game.
nobody plays the same level and stage all over and over.

Na today / ? ? ?

It have tayed

except your a learner , you shouldn't let her sudden change in attitude get to you

Quite frankly , we only have one side of the story, we don't have hers

If she wouldn't communicate with you directly, ask a friend to ask her what you did ,

perhaps you unintentionally said something she didn't like

Did something she didn't like

found something she didn't like

communicate, and make amends where possible , if she still won't change , there's plenty of fish in that river

Obviously, u've been reseaching on how to be an Alpha Male. Reading too much of David D'Angelo's book is not good for u. I successfully became one, but even with the girls swaming around me then I didn't find fulfillment till I submitted to Holiness fervently prayed that GOD should lead me to fulfill His glorious purpose for my Life. Now, I have a new direction in Christ JESUS, fulfilling the exact purpose for which I was created. I have peace of mind, at peace with girls, guys and GOD, I now live a purpose driven Life; my destiny. Even unexpected fame and prosperity is emerging upon my life. What can I say but thank you JESUS!

Re: Why Do Nice Guys Always Get Treated Badly? by ayocool(m): 6:31am On Dec 22, 2014
Being Nice is a good thing brother, dont be discouraged or try to change yourself to be bad. Most ladies seeking out to the bad guys always come to regret that decision at a point in time when the dating game is going too long and they need to settle down. Then they start looking for that niceness they once tossed away. You simply have the trait of a family oriented guy and that will pay you off maybe not now, but later while married to one of the few mature ladies out there. It actually takes alot to be nice than to be bad. Ladies who appreciate the nice guys are ambitious too.

Ladies who want the bad guys are players/fun seekers, they avoid the nice guys because they see him as a trap for commitment which they are not ready for, Yet they might keep him on the sideline as the emotional back-up, using you to move on from a bad guys heartbreak to the next.

Be nice but dont over do it(don't be a girlie man), Be Integrated and dynamic; Being integrated means being able to accept all aspects of one's self. An integrated man is able to embrace everything that makes him uniquely male: his power, his assertiveness, his courage, and his passion as well as his imperfections, his mistakes, and his dark side.

Try this, if you get a chance to meet up with her again, have a disagreement arrangement with a friend to call you while shes there. Talk aggressively, bluntly and manly to the person on the phone, make her feel some pressure. Trust me from there things will start changing.

Myth. Do you think ladies that date nice guys do not fall for them? Most nice guys complain of their hearts being broken. Why? It was all good earlier. Rosy. She loved the way he treated her and she agreed to date him.

Why is it during Val, most guys act like Zombies to please their women. If ladies love rough bad guys, men would have been slapping them during Val. No need to take her on dates and thrill her.

It is a case of wanting more. Most women are never satisfied. No matter how nice you treat her, she wants more.

If you are mean to her and rough, she would want a GOD FEARING MAN. LOL.
when I mean rough I mean someone that's in control

I see you may be doing something that turns these ladies off if her friends are avoiding you as well. While it's cool to be yourself constant rejection is bad for anyone's self esteem so i'd say you need to stop something you are doing probably you are rejecting yourself on some level you are unaware of there is a difference between a one time heart break and consistent rejection from women who seemed to be into you initially.

Know thyself.... Never deny your identity because of a woman, no matter the pressure. If you turn bad, they'll gossip about you being ''A GOOD GUY TURNED BAD''. They are watching you I tell you.

I am always missing on threads like this... Shiiittt.

I have been insulted because I was nice.

I have been abused because I was nice

I have been scammed because I was nice.

BUT now... I don't care anymore what a girl does while with. I really don't care but there will be a limit to which I can take. I no longer take nonsense from anyone.

The last one that scammed me has been fooling around thinking a PIN will drop. Na dere thunder go fire her.

I used to be like you, I used to be the guy who sings for lady. They guy who buy things without her request, the guy who hardly says no... But I then realized that I didn't love myself in those instances. Strange but truth.

Love yourself FIRST!

Here is an advice from a friend when I was acting like mumu. He said if I have money, I should feed my tommy FIRST before anyone. After much hurts, I adapted his advice and since then, I have grown to become a bit selfish.

Love yourself FIRST and all others will take shape. Do not displease yourself to please anyone.

IDEApro:
1. Woo a lady

2. Take her out on a date

3. Make yourself unavailable for as long as you want.
I. she calls and you promise to see her, don't go and give convincing reason
b. Give her surprise presents and don't yield to any of her request.
c.women are inquisitive in nature, don't be predictable.

4. bleep her after months of meeting her not within weeks.

5. continue the game of being unpredictable and she will naturally want to discover the real you. The more she try,the good she is obsessed and you see her displaying that weakness to be with you.

...a year later she will beg you to define the relationship because you are unpredictable.

Then tell her ''with the right attitude I will want to spend the rest of my life with you in the near future'' and you are guaranteed a steady bleep.
what about taking her out for a date and started buying som stuff for her,is that also mr nice aspect??

The word nice isn't a man thing. It applies to all gender.

I don't understand how nice you are or what you count as being 'nice'.

Just learn to control ur emotions. Don't be tooo needy as if you have been waiting all your life for this.

Lastly, being 'nice' makes you vulnerable, needy, a pushover; it makes the other fellow feel in charge n sees no reason to sweat it out with you.
Relationship is consensual.

You can buy to express your love which you have done or u do on a date. What transpires in the date will tell you if u need to subsequently.

A lady who hasn't said yes to be your girl doesn't deserve a gift afterwards. You will only look stupid n she will sit n delay responding becos you will keep buying hoping it will make Her say yes.

Believe me, love is cheap but with a price.
Re: Why Do Nice Guys Always Get Treated Badly? by delishpot: 8:36am On Dec 22, 2014
thegoodjoehunt3:
The scenario you describe here, explains my point if you look closely.

The good/nice girl for instance wants to hold on to the love and make it work. She is devoted.

The playa is not devoted and wants to move on to the next one. So the good one gets dumped and the playa hardly/never gets dumped.

Same with good/nice guys. They hold on to the relationship until they see the bad side of the girl but a playa will dump the same girl and will never see her bad side.
Which clearly contradicts what you said at first. You said both player and good boy get dumped equaly and I said no. That players tend to get ladies/ guys who latch unto them and want to make things work out while the good ones are heart broken easily by a bad partner( player) who doesnt give a rats arse about them. Which we have all withnessed at one point in time. Players hardly ever get dumped good ones are easily dumped or used.

You sound nice but you know too much of anything can become a bad thing and sometimes the attraction just dies it's not your fault and there is nothing you can do. Its not because you are not a jerk maybe she is not feeling you anymore. If you have to act like a jerk before a woman likes you then she does not really like you she likes the act you are putting on and how long do you plan to keep up the act? See why it's best to be yourself?
I'm
If she likes bad boys, you may have to leave her so she can find what she is looking for and you can find someone who appreciates what you have to offer.
Never listen to a woman's advice on women!
