Thank you hester. I think I love you.
Thank you for your reply Soozen. I am shtuck with IT to.


Non Sum tells me I am likeable. I told him yes that is my shtick. The nice guy shtick.
Yes that is my shtick. I am a nice guy. I would not hurt a fly.

I saw this movie fifty years ago when it first came out. No movie has ever scared me more. I don't watch slasher movies anymore. Not since I ran sleeper team with a combat veteran. We were in a motel one night when he asked to please not watch any slasher movies. Not that I was planning too.

I only watch this movie on mother's day.
I have Crazy Mike's Charles Addams' sense of humor. No wonder I can't get a date.

Well as long as I am rambling I found this while I was googling for the nice guy shtick.

Nice Guy Syndrome

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Nice guys think women are a 'special species' from another planet. Nice guys suffocate their girlfriends, expecting them to be their lovers, mother, sister, princess, china doll, and the Goddess who brings up the sun in their mornings. They also expect their girlfriends to be their best buddy, because 'real' guys won't have anything to do with the geeks!

Nice guys sit there entranced by their girlfriends as the girlfriend carries on the whole conversation by themselves. Nice guys haven't lived so they have nothing to add to the conversation. Nice guys bore women to death. Nice guys stare at their girlfriends in total worship awe. Women find it difficult to eat when they are being visually consumed by a staring, mindless dope.


Nice guys pretend to be 'just our friend' and then go home and fantasize about us mothering their 'nice guy' kids. Nice guys have no real life or interest of their own. They sit around and dream of getting a girlfriend to fill their empty lives. Nice guys feel so undeserving of 'awesome you' that they make you feel that you have, most assuredly, picked a real loser.

Nice guys think women are porcelain goddesses. Women don't want to have to keep living up to a surreal image.

Nice guys think that if a woman doesn't want to have anything to do with their boring, empty shell of manlihood, they're stupid bytches who would rather be with a jerk that beats them. Yep, this is every woman's dream[/sarcasm].

Nice guys are too STUPID to figure out that woman don't want to be the leader on the dance floor.

Nice guys sit there like passive puppies, waiting for their girl to make all the moves. This is because woman love to feel undesirable.


Nice guys are gentle, tender, pedal-soft lovers. Woman love this...hopefully her nice guy will wake her up to let her know that he is coming. "I'm not hurting you now, am I hon.?" Hopefully, your nice guy will eventually turn into a jerk and cheat on you (so someone else can endure his lack of lovemaking skills).

Nice guys will make you feel guilty if you spend a minute anywhere but with them.

Nice guys will buy you flowers. Then ask you all evening long if you liked them.

Nice guys are hideously insecure. Nice guys never do for you anything for the simple sake of giving. Everything they do for their girlfriends are like stock investments. The stock is up at Acceptance and Approval. Each gift he gives you, or loving gesture he shows you, is really a guaranteed down payment toward a future of him clinging to you like a drowning man to a life-saver.

Nice guys are confused about romance. They either go overboard and bring a dozen roses to a "lets go for a walk in the park" date...or...they are so unsuave and unsure of themselves that they hang around you, pretending to be your friend. Yep, I just love an unconfident, self-doubting man. Nice guys are so desperate to please that they have no identity of their own. Ask a nice guy his thoughts on anything. Guess what? He doesn't have any!

Nice guys are easily used. I just love a man I have no respect for. [/more sarcasm]

Nice guys suffer from the "Night in Shining Armor" syndrome. They pick out the sleaziest, "hard luck" cases to rescue. *snicker*

Nice guys make you their Life, their only source of happiness. Woman love this burden placed on them. [/even more sarcasm]

Nice Guys really don't like themselves. Insecurity is not sexy, it is suffocating, clinging and obsessive.

I think I am going to delete the above post. Sometimes my sense of humor creeps me out.
What do you think?

[judih]

a dating forum expert? weird, she sounds

[stilltrucking]

Sounds like she had my number.
I was thinking more about the crack about mother's day.

There are a couple of words I would like to mention here
Abreaction and Reification.

On Thursday November 22, 1963 I come close to
not sure how close but pretty close
I had my hands around her throat
I could feel the blood flowing in her Carotid
to strangling my mother.
Amazing grace that saved me from suicide by matricide cause I could not have lived with that.

I think it is called abreaction
Kennedy's murder kicked off the repressed rage I felt about my father's death
Repression another reification I suppose

We were estranged my mother and me for almost ten years
then in 1972 I did LSD for the first time.
I sat up all night talking with her
she was clueless that I was tripping
but in the course of the night we became friends again.
and she told me this joke

There was a horrible crime, a nice Jewish boy murdered his mother, then he cut her heart out
he ran down the street with her heart in his hands
He tripped and fell
and his mother's heart said to him
"Oy vey, did you hurt yourself son?"

What I did not know in 1963 was what happened between Crazy Mike and my sister. And what my mother did to protect her daughter.
The things we do for love.

There is a Navajo saying about men who do bad things.
"He acts like he has no family"

Thank you for the feedback my dear sister.
First thoughts
I will edit for typos

REIFICATION
To treat as though real that which is just an abstraction or a conceptualization. Sociologists since Durkheim have been accused of reifying society which critics say is just an abstract concept and does not exist. To act as though society exists and thus can act or make decisions or coerce people is to reify society.

ABREACTION
An emotional release or discharge after recalling a painful experience that has been repressed because it was not consciously tolerable. Often the release is surprising to the individual experiencing it because of it's Intensity and the circumstances surrounding its onset. ...

REPRESSION
((psychiatry) the classical defense mechanism that protects you from impulses or ideas that would cause anxiety by preventing them from becoming conscious)

[hester_prynne]

Heh. That nice guy list is kinda borderline creepy.
I never did like nice guys.
Heh Heh.
Is there a mean guy list?
H

[stilltrucking]

Here is a link to her post. Some of the replies were funny.

What you described is not a "nice guy". You described Norman Bates. A "nice guy" would have no problem telling a dumba$$ like you to ####

Easy to find a mean guy list, just pick up any newspaper any day in the good old USA.
Do you remember Teddy's story on litkicks?
Plenty of stories about mean men..
