It's all about confidence.
A lot of the guys that seem to be 'winning' against the so-called nice guys are douches. Confident, sure, but still dicks when it comes to their intentions and such, Don't get me wrong. I think that for the most part though, it's confused with a guy having confidence or being particularly animated, coupled with the insecurities that the 'nice guy' doesnt want to admit about himself.

Be yourself Be yourself Be yourself Be yourself Be yourself Be yourself Be yourself! It wouldn't be so cliche if it didn't work! Seriously, the second you start acting like someone you're not, you lose your compatibility with her. Fish in the sea, not darkest before dawn, if not meant to be, it's not meant to beblahblahblahblahblahblahblah. Now you are ready!
Girls vary, much like anyone else, so they can't really be generalized like that, so yeah, you've got a shot with a girl somewhere out there. To be frank though, it's got alot to do with looks, so if you're not a looker, or as much of a looker as a jerk, then bad luck.Mr S said:This question is for all the ladies (especially the Dutch ones):
Are girls still interested in nice guys or is there really no more hope for us?
It has recently (past 17 years) come to my attention that a lot of men act like jerks in front of women, and the women seem to be enjoying it. Which leads me to think that women nowadays are attracted to complete douches.
(Un)fortunately, I don't belong to that specific group, and I consider myself to be a nice and confident guy.
In fact, my last date said it wasn't gonna work out because I was too nice.
Now I've tried to be a jerk, but I don't like myself anymore when I do that.
And neither do other people, so it would seem I am doing something terribly wrong.
Is there still any chance for us? We are just regular guys, except for that we aren't complete douches.
Also I've noticed that especially city girls are attracted to jerks, please comment on that too
Ok, I've read the replies and I'd like to delve deeper in the "some do like nice guys, some like jerks" thing. Now I believe that. Problem is I can't seem to find the ones that like nice guys. I just run into jerk-loving girls OR girls that already are in relations with other nice guys.
In my experience the vast majority of women like nice guys once they get out of that high school rebellious phase. However, there is an important distinction to make between "nice guy" and "guy who is nice in a misguided attempt to get laid." Women do not like the latter and they'll see right through you if you try to be their best friend as a means of getting into their pants.
I've decided I have enough on my mind without the whole relationship tomfoolery. If it happens, it happens. If it doesn't, fine. One thing less to worry about; have yourself a cookie.
BULLCRAP! She's just not good enough for you! youhttp://img.photobucket.com/albums/v694/Antfro/Funny%20stuff/YoureAwsome.gifRaikuFA said:

It has been my experience that the 'nice guy' is synonymous with coward. I am not psychic, if you don't act interested in me in a way that I can perceive, I'm not going to know you like me like that. You have to tell us when you're interested, and just spending time and hanging out as 'friends' is going to force me to lunch rush you into the friend zone...where I put all my other helicopter friends. You know what, be a little daring; get to know me while we're dating rather than hover around and look disappointed every time I spend time with my new boyfriend, because guess what? He told me he was interested in me.
How do you even notice this going on? Why do you so called "nice guys" even hang around with people who you see as "jerks" or girls who you see as "liking jerks?"
Hang out with cool people, like meets like, and if you ever start describing yourself as a "nice guy" you're probably not nice, just passive. You don't stand up to those bullies do you? You just think about joining them and then ask the internet if you should because you aren't good at making decisions or actively bettering yourself. Why is the internet inundated with these blockheads?

Like people have said, if you are nice and confident and you actually express to a girl that you like her, then yes girls like nice guys.
you need a shitload of luck. It's not about skill, confidence, sense of humour or any of that crap, you just need some luck for dat one home run
It's like gardening in FFXI, there are so many variables and unseen quantities that the process-result seems random at best.
I'll get back to you when I find a nice guy who doesn't brozone me. I seem to be a big complete and utter jerk beacon tho. How I love my life >_>
As for nice guys being popular just look at Alastair...he's like the fangirl favourite.
