My girlfriend often tells me that I was not a nice guy when she met me, but that now (that she tamed me a little) I was nicer.
And she can be quite a handful herself. And yet I picked her out of 4 girls while I knew that she'd be the least submissive of them all.
Looking back on our relationship so far, it's now clear to me that no one (male or female) wants a submissive partner deep down.
Of course you'll hate it when you have a disagreement or when you have to negotiate with your partner, and it can go on for a long time, but that feeling when you finally reach a solution or a compromise is invaluable.
Nice guys constantly tell girls that they're no threat "I'll be anything you want me to be! I will never upset you!" No one respects that kind of person, again, male or female.
If the girl finds you attractive, she might give you a pass even though you're (too) nice, but she'll quickly get bored of you. Because you offer her no challenge, you're predictable and you have no standards.
And the girl finds you unattractive, you could either be the nicest guy in the world or the toughest bad boy, she won't give a sh*t either way, even simply talking to you will be a nuisance to her.
Which is what I often don't understand with those girls' rants about online dating. If it's on Tinder and the guys truly annoys you, just use that f*****g unmatch button and poof, the guy disappears forever. It seems they also want to manufacture drama because they're bored.
Then they can proceed with writing a blog post basically saying "look, I'm a victim! Now give me attention and feel sorry for me please!" That trend just won't die.
