Nice Guys

on Posted by Rajesh J Advani
After spending quite some time ranting about (or listening to rants about) how girls go for all the wrong guys, it's nice to see a girl agreeing with you. And not just agreeing with you. I mean knowing exactly what you mean, and taking the words right out of your mouth.

Fu-zu Jen wrote the following piece as a student for the Wharton Undergraduate Journal. It brings tears to my eyes...

This is a tribute to the nice guys. The nice guys that finish last, that never become more than friends, that endure hours of whining and bitching about what assholes guys are, while disproving the very point. This is dedicated to those guys who always provide a shoulder to lean on but restrain themselves to tentative hugs, those guys who hold open doors and give reassuring pats on the back and sit patiently outside the changing room at department stores...

I was searching around on the old interweb, and I have to say... I really hate this article. I can understand why people like it, but honestly, it puts this angelic spin on nice guys. Really, when all is said and done, the nice guy is only really nice to the object of his affection. Certainly. lots of nice guys are good people, but mostly, I find, they just put women on a pedestal, which is why they finish last.

A pedestal is a high place to fall from, and no one can stay up there forever. Know what I mean?

Great blog - crap article.
