"Nice Guy Syndrome: It’s Killing Your Dating Life"

Don’t be the next victim of this tragic disease! The Modern Man has the cure...
It’s a disease that has plagued too many men for too long: The NICE GUY syndrome! An illness that men have learned from watching one too many TV shows and maybe even their own families and friends.

The nice guy approach to women suggests that men should be overly sensitive; always accommodating a woman’s every desire and allowing her to make the majority of choices in the relationship. The nice guy syndrome encourages men to shower women with expensive gifts and be completely powerless in the relationship. The nice guy does not ask a woman about kissing and sex...and let’s be honest, he rarely gets any!

In short, the nice guy is a pushover who is miserable, while the woman he treats like a queen finds him boring and predictable and after a few days or weeks, she leaves him for a more confident, challenging guy. Don’t let this happen to you, nice guy syndrome can be cured!

The first step to breaking the curse of the nice guy syndrome is admitting that you have the problem. You are still reading this page so you are probably ready to admit that you need help. After admitting the problem, it is time to change your behaviour.

Try these strategies to begin with:
  • Stop spending money: You don’t have to buy a woman’s attention. You can keep her interested without spending a dime on expensive gifts and dinners.

  • Put yourself first: Your power in the relationship relies on you being able to think about your own needs, and get the woman to meet them. Women want to be with a man who takes charge, without being overly domineering.

  • Relax around women: Dating is only as uncomfortable as you allow it to be. Have confidence in yourself and stay calm when approaching women to instantly get them interested and offering up their phone numbers.

  • Say no: You shouldn’t always be available, sometimes the best way to get a woman’s attention is to appear too busy and never appear too eager to date her. If you’re too eager and too much of a “Yes Man”, it makes her think she can control you and get you to do whatever she wants. Whereas, a man who doesn’t appear too interested usually causes a woman to do the chasing.

  • Be surprising: A common fault among guys suffering from the nice guy syndrome is that they always follow the typical dating rules. The secret to dating success however is being a little outside of the norm. Bad boys or jerks may be a little cavalier and may ignore dating etiquette but they always get the girl.
I know these approaches work because I used to suffer from the nice guy syndrome myself. Since transforming myself and my own dating life, I now teach nice guys everyday how to be more assertive, more confident and how to win at dating.
