  • Hmmmm. I can't speak for all girls/women, but it might just be a nice way of saying that you're not her type. Or she values your friendship and knows that having a romantic relationship with you could jeopordize it. Since we don't know the girl in question, it's hard to say why she would think these things.
  • "He's too nice" means he's not exciting enough, daring enough, or enough of a challenge. Women don't like boring, ordinary men, and all too often "nice" equals "boring." Unfortunately, "exciting" also quicky turns to "arrogant and abusive". "I don't see him as a person I could date" could be said for any number of reasons. The literal meaning? "I do not want to waste my time seeing him in a romantic context because I do not have romantic feelings for him". Just make a list of women acquaintences "you don't see yourself dating" to give yourself a starter list of possible reasons.
  • She may mean, no sparks, no fire, no sexual chemistry. After all, isn't that what separates being friends from being more than friends? It doesn't necessarily have to do with her wanting to go out with bad boys or men who withhold emotional validation. She may like you as a person, but that extra attraction just isn't there.
  • That they want a bad boy. Unless you're a nice guy who also happens to earn gobs of cash. The reason is that we present no challenge whatsoever to women. They need conquests as much as men do. Women need proof of accomplishment, and that currency is change. Women don't need to change a nice guy. So they feel less special, like anyone you'd date would get this treatment. So you're in the Friend Zone, pal. You'd make a great friend. Now a bad guy, that's a challenge. They set about trying to change him, and measuring success by that. Because if they succeed in the conquest, they feel special, superior, to all the women he's dated and wouldn't change for. They can measure this success, while there is no equal measure for a nice guy who just gives of himself. Occasionally, you'll find a nice guy who will keep giving and giving. This involves the woman who thought she got a bad guy, and now must test the nice guy to see how far he'll go. Just measuring. The irony of all this, is that nice guys LITERALLY get to finish last... as women finally lose their illusions and decide to find a nice man. So nice guys, be patient, we get to go last. One last kick in the gut, though.... often when we finally meet a girl tired of rotten apples, she may come equipped with a little baggage. The mistrust of men, the hurt of losing out again and again... and we get to deal with it, finishing last as usual.
  • Sometimes identifying a guy as being 'too nice' means that he's not being authentic. He may be showing signs that he's trying too hard, and there is something more under the surface, a feeling of inadequacy. More likely, it means that he doesn't seem exciting enough. Getting banged around by a few 'bad boys' will usually cure the woman of this type of thinking.
  • I've noticed that girls who say a guy is too nice have issues with being treated too well and subconsciously need to be treated poorly. Low selfesteem or issues with thier father's not treating them well are often the culpret. It's really common that girls want to be treated like shit. You know the kind who like a guy even more if the guy doesn't pay attention to them and teases them about something negative. Where as the nice guy who does all he can think of to get her attention like flowers and the like are shot down as "too nice."
  • 99.999% of the time it means the girl puts more of a value on physical attractiveness than personality and it it her way of saying she finds the guy ugly without being direct and to the point as to avoid hurting his feelings In my experience most women would put up with someone who continually cheats on them trats em like crap beats on em and tries to rule and control every aspect of their life so long as he is their idea of hot They may say they want a sweet sensitive caring guy but in reality they know that any guy who is sweet sensetive and caring is either a fag or is not their idea of hot and attractive physically This typically happens with girls in their teens and twenties byt the time most women reach their 30's they tend to realize that personality counts for more than looks does
  • It means your not their type.
  • These are misleading statements, meant to cover up a woman's true feelings which she isnt comfortable sharing. The truth is that there is no such thing as "Too Nice". The biggest reason for some women saying this is the whole attraction to the "Bad Boy" image. Most women claim to be above the quirks some men have about the whole conquest and thrill of the chase mentality, but in reality they arent any more mature than some men are in that respect. As much as men sometimes tend to be poisoned by the popular media approved stereotype of the perfect woman so do women about the myth of the bad boy with the heart of gold. These myths are just that myths. They dont exist and never will, but immaturity makes some people out there seek them. So some people go after those stereotypes and then when they think they have found them, and fall for them, eventually reality creeps in to their fantasy and they learn far too late that they have made a huge mistake. So when a woman says "He's Too Nice", what she really means is he doesnt fit her immature misguided image of what a real man or her type of man should be. So the best thing for that proverbial nice guy to do is not change to conform to the woman's type, no woman is worth that, but simply to find a more mature woman who has either learned her lesson about what a real man is, or one whose desires are not so shaped by popular media approved stereotypes. That's how it went for me. I remained the nice guy I always was and never conformed, and when I met the right woman not only was I not too nice I was just right. Nice guys not only should not worry so much but should also never change either.
  • Just because a woman says a man is "too nice" doesn't mean she wants to be treated awful by a "bad boy." Women want nice guys, but they don't want wimps. Women want strong bold men, not timid little soft guys who don't have a backbone! The only reason "bad boys" appeal to women is because they are usually very masculine and brave in their demeanor. Unfortunately, they are also rude, arrogant and abusive. Women want a happy medium. A strong, confident NICE GUY. I'm confident that those guys do exist. One just has to be patient.
  • Good question +2 I think it means he may be to shy. They want somone who stands up for themselvs and isn't shy. Someone who is nice but outgoing aswell.
  • I would mean it as he is too busy trying to please everyone he lets down those who are most important to him.
  • Translation: "He'll never see me naked."
  • that there is no sexual chemistry for her but she likes you as a friend +5
  • Maybe she's not attracted to the guy in a way that would allow them to have a relationship.
  • she likes being treated like trash. then she doesnt have to care when she cheats. women are crazy!
  • A person can be considered weak when no matter what they only are nice. There are times when being NICE is NOT an option.
