If you have to tell people that you're nice and fun, you're probably none of those things.

In the intriguing realm of Reddit, the Nicegirl subreddit serves as a hub for highlighting the paradoxical nature of some women.

This subreddit beams the torchlight on the self-proclaimed "nice girls" who claim that men are shallow for not dating them, all the while imposing rigorous physical standards on the men they pursue. For the women who hold others to the highest possible standard, but have no standards for themselves.

A recent post on this subreddit showcased a conversation that captured this contradictory attitude perfectly. In the exchange, the original poster's (OP's) friend lamented, "Why don't people like me tho? I'm so nice and giving. I'm pretty, I'm nice, I'm fun, I'm outgoing, I'm funny." OP's succinct reply was a dagger of truth: "You're conceited."

The Reddit community savored the irony of the situation. The "nice girl" in question failed to see the stark inconsistency in her own statements. On one hand, she was convinced of her stellar personality and likable traits. On the other, she was oblivious to her own conceit, which OP pointed out in just two words.

This exchange brings to the forefront an important issue: the tendency of some individuals to blame the world, while never introspecting about their own role in their predicaments.

It’s easy to paint oneself as the victim or the overlooked gem, but when a pattern of rejection or conflict persists, it’s time to consider looking at yourself in the mirror. If you have to tell people that you're nice and fun, you're probably none of those things.

This entertaining conversation resonated with the audience because it illustrated the precise kind of double standard the Nicegirl subreddit seeks to expose: the myth of the "nice girl" who can do no wrong but expects the world from others.

Let’s dig into the details

Straight to the point

Here’s how the Reddit community reacted to the post:

No better response

Anytime someone has to declare that they’re “very funny”, they’re most likely the opposite

Someone needs to tell her that no one arrogant and entitled people

“There’s a really fine line between knowing your own self-worth and being conceited.“

“She probably has some pretty tremendous personality flaws that she doesn't want to acknowledge.“

She had to say it twice

She probably had to google “conceited”

If so many people don’t like you, then you probably need to look within for answers why

Chances are, she’s none of the things that she’s claiming to be

Talking in lowercase is a reg flag

Probably she should have added “I think” before each statement

No one with a good sense of humor says “I’m” funny

The Reddit community seemed to enjoy having a go at this “Nice girl.” The fact that she has admitted that people don’t like her could serve as evidence of a less-than-pleasant character.

Rather than label herself as nice and funny, she might benefit from examining her own personality for elements that could be detrimental to her relationship with others.
