Ready for
a real relationship? Stop dating bad guys 'cool' in the name of they are more exciting
and appealing than born again church guys who are presumed to be boring. Start
looking for a nice guy.
Most ‘nice guys’ in Church i.e.
born again men get a bad reception from good born again females. (No, I’m not
talking about self-proclaimed “nice guys” who use politeness as currency
to attract women — I mean actual kind men).
It’s really a shame, considering
that truly nice guys are actually hubby material. Nonetheless,
they’re almost always ignored or turned down, overlooked and unwanted.
Instead, women will go for
the so called cool guy — the jerk. A woman will go for the “man of
mystery” who will never let her get close enough to truly know. In youth
meetings at my Church, i have more than often heard girls make statements like
this, “Wanaume wa church wanaboo hata hawaongeangi kitu…” Whatever that means
or something like, “…hua wamezubaa…”
Women really want nice guys. But
they won’t know it for a while — at least, not until they’re ready for a
life partner. They still have a lot to learn.
Once a girl becomes a woman and
understands what is and isn’t important in life and in a relationship, the nice
guy will suddenly become infinitely more appealing.
Girls
think that the cool guy is the diamond in the rough…
…until they realize that “cool
guy” usually translates into “a thorn in the flesh guy.”
And boy oh boy, are there thorn
in the flesh guys in this world.
Women, like men, want excitement
in their lives. Women also want someone rare, unique and special.
Everybody does. People want what others don’t have because they make them feel
special. And since Mom and Dad managed to convince us we’re special, we
expect to stay that way.
Women don’t want the nice guy
because “nice” sounds a lot like “average.” It’s good, not great;
fine, not amazing. Or, at least, that’s how most of us feel.
However, after meeting and dating
enough men, most women will realize one thing: It’s much easier to find a cool
guy.
And that’s when the tables turn.
Unfortunately, this realization
usually comes after years and years of dating so called cool guy just
because he took her for an outing and bought her some good gifts while Mr born
again was busy praying in arboretum and hence the girl turns down this nice
guy. Strangely nice guys get turned down so often that they start to believe
being a bad/cool guy is the way to go.
He wants to be nice. But
if women want someone who treats them poorly, he may as well give them what
they want. I’m not saying women are to blame, but I’ve seen this happen with my
own eyes.
The nice guy is the
one girls will seek once they’ve made enough mistakes.
Meeting the right person isn’t
about finding someone compatible. It’s about rejecting the people you aren’t
meant to date. It’s about becoming the person you need to be to make a
relationship work.
People learn by making mistakes.
The risks we take — and the failure that so often follows —
make us better.
Of course, in life, there is no
one to tell us about our mistakes and what we can learn from them.
So when it comes to heartache, we
don’t always learn from experience. Because learning is, after all, left
up to our interpretation.
Women usually find the “nice
guy” after they’ve seen other relationships fail time and time again. The nice
guy isn’t appealing until you realize he’s exactly what you need.
Unfortunately, you have to date a
lot of bad guys to realize this.
Women
eventually realize that nice guys can be exciting and spontaneous with the
right woman.
Women assume that jerks will make
for a more exciting relationship.
And, to be completely honest,
this is often the case. Sometimes nice guys are a bit too nice. They’re
guessing that kindness is something all women want.
But that’s not true. No one wants
just that.
Everyone wants to feel more.
We want to be excited and moved; we know that being in love can make us feel
that way.
Well, the bad guy/cool guy will
make a more exciting relationship. But it won’t be exciting in the way you
hope. You will be overwhelmed with emotions, but they won’t be positive ones.
The unborn again will make
you feel bad about yourself. He’ll make you feel worried and stressed. He’ll
convince you that what you’re feeling is love, when in reality it’s far
from it.
Your life will certainly be more
exciting, but you’re going to hate it. So what’s the point?
Any relationship can be exciting
— the good kind of exciting — if both people work on making it so.
It’s not just up to the man to
make your relationship more exciting. Women also need to work on
making their relationships exciting.
We all want to be swept off our
feet, but one-sided relationships always fail. After all, it is a
partnership.
If you don’t believe me, go ahead
— date the unbelieving guy. Ignore the nice guy. And then when you change your
mind, re-read this article and tell me I’m wrong.
Remember love is blind so they
say.
''Do not be yoked together with unbelievers. For what do righteousness and wickedness have in common? Or what fellowship can light have with darkness?"-2 Corinthians 6:14
OUCH Paul, way to spare people’s feelings! But the truth hurts, right? These days dating a non-believer is starting to become even more common and somewhat accepted within the church with a weak excuse that men in the Church are not outgoing as men out there.
Be blessed, Stay encouraged.
