No not at all... It's not a race
YES! I spent many years trying to be the perfect wife and mom, to find out years later he cheated on me the ENTIRE time.
Yes because most times women prefer the mean dudes that treat them like shit and think the cool nicer dude is more of a push over.
Soooooo....the fact we are together means nothing? Lol. That's proof your theory is wrong.

Depends on the situation. In general I'd say yes because girls love the bad boys. But if have enough of that you start looking for a nice guy. They make great fathers and husbands. My opinion, obvs.
It depends on what the person is looking for at that time when he/she started dating. If he/she just wants to "try it out" and/or just have fun, then "nice" guys/girls finish last. But if the person is really scouting for the real deal relationship, the hunt for the "soulmate", then it's the other way around. I was always on the lookout for my soulmate~~~ and got it right the first time. :) it's all about the qualities you're looking for in the person.
I don't think so. I do think they are more easily taken advantage of. But I also think that's something totally in their control. I consider myself to be a nice girl. I give everyone a chance. But when you show me who you are in a "bad" way, I deal with you accordingly. Period. When you ALLOW people to use and abuse you, you've stepped out of NICE into something else.
Yes, because we dont cheat, lie, or steel. We wont lie, to you, for you, or about you. So we generally arent popular or entertaining in todays society. I have faith that in the end, we wont finish last.
Nice guys get taken advantage of b/c they're too accommodating (which becomes expected), and they get walked on b/c they're too forgiving.
Laughing. You're not a nice guy...

.... Sometimes
Not True
Yes I believe they do. But they always finish better.
I didn't ... I have everything I ever wanted. Now you could argue that I am not that nice but that's a different discussion :-)
I always try to finish last, but my baby always wants me to finish first. ;)
I'm nice but I'm no pushover, and neither is my partner. Teddy bear and Tiger!
Lol. That's right.
