A harmless man is not a good man.

I’ve never really wanted to be a nice guy or be perceived as a good guy.

I’ve never trusted them.

Nice guys, “good men,” and perceived great guys are the worst of them.

At least in my very biased and completely unobjective opinion.

Because it’s not really who they are. The kindest faces often mask the sharpest claws.

They’re insincere, and these men are probably more dangerous than most women and other men realize.

It sounds odd, right?

But I have found in my life the man who wears a mask of virtue usually hides the face of deceit.

Most TV shows, movies, and songs glamorize the “good guy,” the guy who does “the right thing.” The man who says “says all the right things” cause he’s a good guy.

  • Jim from the Office — he might seem like a good guy, but he’s kind of a bully who thinks he’s better than everyone in the office and basically got a girlfriend out of cheating.
  • Dawson Leery — nuff said.
  • Ross Geller — pines over Rachel and, despite them never dating thinks shes the only girl for him and he deserves her.
  • Xander Harris — (Buffy The Vampire Slayer) — sulking like a little bitch cause he got rejected by buffy
