26 Times Women Chose To Post Screenshots Of Men Who Claim To Be ‘Nice Guys’ But Are Nothing Close To It
Time to explore the phenomenon of “fake” nice guys
A 28-year-old woman refused to let a “nice guy” narrative slide, and instead posted the screenshots where the mask started slipping. It was never just one comment, one apology, or one “I’m genuinely a real person” line. It was a whole pattern, laid out like evidence, complete with the weird compliments, the entitlement, and the constant insistence that he deserved more than he was getting.
The complicated part, though, was that these weren’t random strangers throwing shade from across the internet. They were men who acted friendly in public, then turned tight-lipped, bitter, or suspicious the second a woman didn’t match their script. Some were “chill,” some blamed the app, some blamed women, some blamed “hurting” feelings, and a few kept insisting they were destined for a “beautiful wife” like it was already in the calendar.
And once you see what they wrote, the “nice guy” label stops sounding like a personality and starts sounding like a tactic.
1. The party is not and will never be more important than you

2. What the nice guys are doing

3. Throwing a ball into the neighbor's yard
4. Finding a reason to delete a particular app
5. She asks about his age, and off she goes
6. I guess women don't know how much that really hurts
7. I don't know who you are, but you have the benefit of the doubt
8. You never gave me a chance, but I'm a genuine person
9. Meeting a guy off the internet is scary, but he might be nice
10. Do you have any interest in what I do?
11. Is it really true that the American woman doesn't care until you're rich?
12. It gets more interesting as you read

13. Women who wear loose t-shirts over their workout clothes
14. One day, he's going to find a beautiful wife and spoil her
15. All the good girls are married, and now he's stuck
16. He's probably napping because he didn't get any sleep last night
17. I'm a real man, and once you experience that...
18. Chad taking a younger woman
19. Women being attracted to intelligence
20. It's chill
That’s when the screenshots of “It’s chill” and “I’m a nice guy” started stacking up, right after the “Do you have any interest in what I do?” line got ignored.
Then came the messier stuff, like the age question that sent her running, and the “You never gave me a chance” speech that sounded rehearsed.
The tone got even stranger with the party-not-important-to-you attitude, plus the “throwing a ball into the neighbor’s yard” energy that screams unasked-for access.
By the time the “Chad taking a younger woman” comparison and “All the good girls are married” rant hit, it was obvious why she posted everything, not just one bad message.
21. I'm a nice guy
22. A nature documentary
23. The perfect guy
24. Really mature and chill
25. The establishment of men
26. Ironically or unironically...
The majority of nice guys are still in the friend zone and try to compensate for their singleness with extra niceness. This may include traits they find unattractive in themselves, such as their appearance or social skills. However, these so-called Mr. Nice Guys have clearly messed up, and they're being called out for it.
Nobody wants to be someone’s “nice guy” excuse.
