That is literally my life.
GodOfSporks
People who think like this usually aren't actually nice people, they're assholes who are also doormats.
Ehvilmonkey
Yup. Helped one night stand to move acrros country alone. Took almost 2 days without sleep. Didint really get even thanks....

this is the very essence of my life

Many situations can be avoided by being an asshole. Same goes for opportunities.
laalot
No. There's this magical and mystical point in the middle that's called 'being honest.' We should all try it more often.
MrPredator
That's my secret. I'm always an asshole.
kojenk
No need to be an asshole, just find a balance between both. Be Assertive. no need of extremes.
Splodgey
A reasonable person? Get out of here
XxStyx1978xX
At this very moment!
Kevinmaloneismyspiritanimal
Get out of it!!
IMONSHIFTNOTCAPS
Do nice things and end up with good things that could be avoided by being asshole? Sure. Whatever the result don't regret being nice.
WocCixelsyd
I've definitely regretted being too nice by ending up a doornat. Gave a homeless dude a buck and then delt with him harassing me for 20 mins
nomadicdirtbag
Yes prison....I could have just said NO but she asked me the fuck her to death...and I did.
thewhifflingtit
It's never too late to start being an asshole.
madetheaccountjustforyou
No, but I'm an asshole.

Punderstandable
Yes, but the situations are always brought about by other people BEING assholes.
Precisely
CliffWestern
I never trust anyone who claims their biggest fault is being "too nice."
akki14
Apparently this is all about boundaries. Learn to firmly establish them and you can be respected without being an asshole either.
Get out of here with your "logic" and your "sense"

My marriage might have survived if I had been more of an ass.
artsystuff
Yeah, but so what? If the situation bothers you, then you didn't get there out of kindness.
wickedjayc
Karma will eventually get to them. I'm not becoming one of the bad ones.
Infospy
I call it "My first marriage"
robogeek78
I guess you missed the boat, I'll give you an upvote. I didn't realize i would get 300 for it.
Shepsus
Offered a person a ride home from a rainy day at a Walmart. They said yes, shoved some groceries in my car, then their ride showed up, 1/2
But their car didnt have room for the groceries. So they asked if one of them could ride with me and take their groceries... it was 2/3
A 10 mile drive to their house into a bad neighborhood. I was late for a date with my lady, who was cooking dinner.
CreativeCanvasKicks
but then the guilt oh the gut wrenching guilt sets in because i'm genuinely a nice person and being mean literally hurts me
We need more people like that in the world
ninjagaidensigma
There's nothing mean about setting clear boundaries. There will always be people who act offended and try to guilt-trip you with this.
Knightmyre
Yep. Every time my "friend" calls me, he needs something, some help moving stuff or a ride to work. I dread answering his calls
Answering machines exist for that exact reason.
BlueLola
I have such a friend too, everytime i say no she goes crazy bitch mode, even though that shit doesn't work on me. Just enjoy the shitshow :p
LetMeTellYouHowIPlannedToKillYouBeforeYouEscapeMrBond
I used to have a friend like this. "Help me put my new bed together, watch my kitten while I study...". She's not my friend any more. 1/2
because she was over an hour late to a party she'd invited me to and didn't say she was in a pub 5 minutes walk away. Fuck you Sam 2/2
Yeah fuck you Sam!
Yetsumari
Have you ever been a douche and created a situation that could have never happened in the first place if you would have been nice?
kyndo
All the time. Although I'm clever and those situations usually just involve other people.
rick423
Yes and I fucked up because of it,I wish I could go back and stop my stupid ass from being a stupid ass or (1/2)
2/2 at least a do over if I could, I'd relive these last 7 months just to not lose her to my stupidity...
30Jonseredi
Never. It just doesn't work that way and it's probably the reason people usually are assholes
KittenVonCatsworth
I call it "work."
meditatingcat
Was about to comment same thing. But yeah everyday at work, but when you actually an asshole then eventually everyone hates you haha
PsuedoIngress
Because I didn't want to be rude, or disappoint my teacher, I didn't say "no". Now I'm a camp counselor speaking Spanish 24/7; I'm so...
... white the first thing you think is, "Who the fuck turned the sun on".

As a person new to sales in a beverage company we got no choice.
ravnicrasol
Worked as a door to door salesman because I had nowhere else at the time. Being a polite asshole was the best way to make a sell.

Haah, because if your da had finished in your ma's ass you wouldn't be here.

I spent 4 years in a 12 hour shift job that rotated between day and night every 2 weeks. It was a unique sort of hell.
JustBeCoolBruh
Mid shifts are why I am leaving the Air Force.
rockinthesuburbs
on the flightline mids is the best shift to be on- service some tires, check forms, play some spades...livin the good life!
Yep it's called my first marriage
Vadderung
We never actually got married, but yeah... same here...
rootedoak
Fuuuuuuuuuuuck samesies

Same for me. I actual tried to be an asshole but she was such a bigger one I felt I couldn't compete.

Holy cow I just commented that I ended up married and then I saw this, I thought it was unusual!

I should have known it wasn't going work between my ex-wife and me. After all I am a Leo and she is a bitch.

CaptSheffield
It's a roll of the dice. You can only try,don't want to not do things. Lots of ppl out there that aren't commenting that it works for.
I basically married my middle school sweetheart, not knowing she was manipulative bitch and not really dating much,I should have waited(1/2)
I also didn't have lots of confidence and needed to grow up to find my self more, If you want to talk more Message me.

Almost makes you want to browse user sub, that way people won't get to the good jokes before you.

Second year into marriage and realised I could be blunt as she appreciates it better than the walking on egg shells people do.
RidingWithMyDarkPassenger
I'd definitely rather you be blunt and just tell me. Hate the eggshells. Hurts my feet.
"You're too damned fat."
Yea.... not what I'm talking about, but thanks. I'm guessing you're single
"Ok, it's fine if we don't have sex, i know you were raped once 18 years ago so this is ok with me." You mean this ;)
FurryFeetys
Was about to post the same. Currently going thru divorce.
ilovethatyoucanmakestupidlongusernamesonthissite
I feel for you. It does get better.
Thank you, friend. Still a little bit wading thru the giant sea of shit, but starting to see the shore. :)
chaserbyahhh
Just finished my divorce. The above is true. It'll get better, you'll always carry it too though. Never forget what went wrong.
Believe me, there are a lot of lessons learned.
Me too.
How's the process treating you?
I'm pretty pissed off at her. But I imagine that is normal. Right now I'm trying to get the house sold and out of my life.
How about you?
House going to close next week. I get pissed when she does stupid shit like shut off the power while it's being shown or use my credit card
