another sub i hate is r/niceguys. i don't understand the internet's extreme obsession with nice guys. there's nothing interesting about them, they're just socially awkward men overreacting to being friendzoned, and as a guy who gets obsessed with many odd topics, i still don't know why the internet's obsessed with them. i don't think nice guys are actual simps trying to get laid by being nice, if that's the reason, why do they assume women only wanna date jerks or abusive men? white knights and actual simps like IT, however, do assume women like "respectful gentlemen" so they clearly are trying to get laid unlike nice guys. i think nice guys just get frustrated over the friendzone thats all. the internet didn't become very obsessed with nice guys until as early as 2002.
also, i bet 50% of the text message screenshots on r/niceguys are made up because they all show the same fucking words and sentences
