Behind the Mask of Kindness: 28 Shocking Tales of Manipulation by So-Called "Nice Guys"
I was so surprised and shocked I think i just got out of the car and walked away. This guy, who i thought was my friend, who i had offered to pay for the rides, thought he was entitled to [intimacy] because he had voluntarily been offering me rides.
To reiterate: i offered to pay him for the rides, i never asked for a ride (he always offered and even insisted), and he had never asked me out on an actual date (i had no idea he thought of me that way).
I felt so betrayed. Made it worse when he then told our mutual uni friends that id been stringing him along and using him for free rides.
When I was in college, there was this guy that hung around my friend group. No one actually knew which one of us brought him in, so maybe he just decided to crash, who knows. But he was creepy. He hit on ALL the girls in the group aggressively and whine DAILY about how we should just give him a chance to show us “how a lady should be treated”. We usually just rolled our eyes, although a few of the guys took him aside on separate occasions and told him to knock it off.
He also went way over the top in a lot of ways. He’d bring the girls flowers or memorize their favorite candy/soda/snacks and present them as a “token of his great affection” (yep, he called it that). He had a bad habit of insisting, like legit would not take no for an answer, on walking the women wherever we needed to go. Myself and my best friend at the time both told him his behavior was creepy.
There were three women in the “core” group, and five others who were close enough that they’d show up at LAN parties or whatever we were doing. He asked every single one of us out at least 50 times. Every single time we said no, he’d go off on this awful tirade about how women didn’t want nice guys, and how we should just be open to the possibility of him being “the love of our lives”. It did not matter how many times we told him we were not interested, not attracted, or IN RELATIONSHIPS.
Sophomore year, a new girl joined the group. For whatever reason, she liked our Nice Guy. A lot. Weird. But he wasn’t in to her at all. A few of us started using his own [nonsense] rhetoric against him when he began whining about her not leaving him alone. It was pretty gross.
True friends are there for you through thick and thin. They celebrate your wins. They support you through your failures. And they don’t come up with constant excuses about why they’d love to help you but really can’t this time (and a dozen before that).
Ugh This is long, bear with me. My parents had friends who had a son considerably older than me, as in like 13 years older. However when I reached puberty he took a liking to me. My mother loved his family and thought he was SO handsome so she always tried to make us hangout in hopes it would kindle something. Mind you I was like 16 when he was 29. My mom somehow saw nothing wrong with this. Anyhow nothing ever happened and I got a boyfriend until I was 23 at which time we broke up.
This is when Mr nice guy swooped in showing up at my house with flowers and gifts unannounced. I never gave him my address….he asked MY MOM. Then he would notice I posted I had a cold on FB and would show up with cold medicine and soup. Which would be nice if I had ANY intrest in him but I didnt. he would look where I checked into on FB and COINCIDENTALLY just be there. I felt bad being like dude STOP cause my mom invited him to every family function and I didnt wana make things weird.
It hit the pinacle when he got a job where I woked just to be closer to me and he told everyone we were dating. Spoiler alert- we werent. I flipped out on him and told him he was creepy and that after all these years he never took the hint after me never answering his calls/texts or taking him up on his relentless attempts to take me out to dinner. I quit my job and moved and blocked him on everthing and had a firm conversation with my mom about keeping him away from me. She was upset and made excuses for him but ultimatley obliged. Years later im now married with a baby and he still relentlessley persues me if he sees me in public.
I like to share this one because it cracks me up it was so ridiculous.
I moved to a new city for school and ran into a long lost distant cousin (grandma’s sister’s grandson). He was just a couple years older than me so he invited me over to hang out with his friends and got my number. I agreed because I’m shy and knew I would have issues making my own connections.
