I mean it's all in the name really isn't it? Nice guys are really the good guys. They are the sort of guy who spots an old lady struggling to cross the road and rushes over to help her, or the kind who sees a young family with a blown tyre on the side of the highway and has to stop to help - being nice comes naturally to them because they are, well... nice.Nice guys lead by example

The nice guys of the world lead by example. They are the ones who want to stand out for all the right reasons. The ones you can find shaking the hand of your father on the first meet and greet or buying your mother flowers just because. They want to impress and be the true gentleman.Nice guys are dependable

We all want to be heard when we're in a relationship. That's regardless of whether the conversation is deep and meaningful or whether it's about the day's gossip... either way, you want your guy to offer an ear, or at least pretend to!

The nice guys are the one's actually out there wanting to pay you attention; wanting to buy you a drink; or wanting to take you out for dinner. The no-so-nice-guys are doing the good ol' faithful 'playing hard to get' and let's be honest, who actually wants to entertain that these days? No-one! it's all about being made to feel like the most attractive person in the room when you've made all that effort.Nice guys remind her of her dad

Now that may sound weird, but it's not! We all look to our fathers as a wholesome, positive and loving relationship where we have been made to feel special since we were little.
