The problem with "nice guys"

If you don’t see what’s wrong with being a Nice Guy, it’s this: despite your “nice” actions, you are still living under the assumption that how you treat a woman entitles you to some sort of appreciation, or some part of her body. If you haven’t noticed by now, this makes you an asshole, too.

what is wrong with being nice and showing affection and expecting to get the same amount of affection in return?

So if a girl that you aren’t attracted to in any way, shape, or form is nice and shows affection to you, you are automatically going to show her the same amount of affection? 

If she is nice to you then you should be nice back…. attractive or not

I said attracted to, not attractive. Someone doesn’t have to be “attractive” for you to be attracted to them. You also mentioned affection. You show affection to everyone? Because that’s, honestly, pretty creepy.

I feel it must be mentioned for Konrad’s sake that when people talk about “nice guys” like this, they’re not talking about guys who just happen to be nice. They’re talking about those guys who pretend to be a girl’s friend or treat her extra nice when all they want is sex in return.

There’s nothing wrong with being a nice person, as long as you’re nice just for the sake of being nice. When you start putting pressure on a woman to put out just because you were nice to her, then you’re a “nice guy”, not a nice guy.
