Plagued Nice Guys

Okay, So here is a fresh new story!

I have a boyfriend, who will be known as BF from now on, who works at a nearby daycare in my mall, He's around 5'9" and like I had posted in my last post I'm around 5'4" but he is this really plain looking guy and he always says I'm not plain looking even though I am I call him shit for that, but he does work at my shop but only as a part time when he had no work at the daycare. He cosplays at times with me and so we usually do shitty ship cosplays or cosplays from dorky animes.

So a little while ago my boss told me we needed to sell more copys of humor/slice of life anime and manga. So today me and my boyfriend cosplayed characters from Fruits Baskets. I am Momiji Sohma and he is Hatsuharu Sohma; which made me have to dress like a little High school boy who dresses like a girl and he has to dress kinda punkish. I'll post references for you all to understand our character's appearances.

But we go out to bring more people in for our sale. I normally don't come in on Thursdays but my classes are canceled. So I was walking around and I was holding his hand with a death grip because I'm terrified and completely socially awkward. There is so many more people out on a week day than I'm used to.

That's when this girl who is wearing CAT EARS with a guy I assume is trying to get into her skirt walks over to us. BF greets her and offers her a flyer from the pile that is what I'm clutching to my chest. Of course I hear a huff from the guy as the girl says we looked adorable and asked for a photo of us both. I nod because I'm a shy person and BF agrees. The girl is pretty chill and as we had chatted I warmed up to her. She was pretty good at taking photos and I offered to give her the store Email so she can pass the cosplay photo to us. As we all chat and be friendly, the guy gets louder in huffing before I actually looked at him straight up.

He is tall, not as tall as BF but he looks around 5'7" so taller than me and around the same height of the girl he's with. I shit you not, I actually know this dude because he had tried to date my friend P from the SLIW story. But this guy had gained a lotta weight from high school; He had been skin and bones back in high school and now it looked like he gained so much weight that I couldn't recognize him. Though I do remember him by face and but I forgot his name. He is our lovely neckbeard/nice guy of the story.

He looks me dead in the face and says,
"Pft, I can cosplay better than these losers, M'lady." I doubt he can even put his pants on in the morning by himself. But the girl he was with shot him a glare and it looks like to me that he just tagged along try to get her to sleep with him.
"Can you not? Like for once in your fucking life, just stop trying to show others up."
I feel awkward for the guy as she tells him off and tell her we'll be taking our leave. I might have had a small voice crack or just started sounding like I did in high school I was always awkward and tended to word shit awkwardly as a high schooler that I try to stop all the time and I regret even speaking up because this lard of shitty fat cried out ever so excitedly,
"KiwiShoto?!" He didn't say my screen name but that's in place of my real name I have never noped out faster by saying fast good-byes and pulling BF along with me. He's tall and bigger so I don't get very far but he sorta get the clue and follows me. I'm horrible and we are back at the store in the back. Idk how to explain to him this fat asshole legitmently has tried to scare me into dating him when I was 14 and he was 17 I was in 9th grade and this dude was in 12th grade and about to graduate at the time of this event. This dude added a lot on my mental Issue list so I'm trying to calm my paranoia filled ass right now.

This can be ignored but this is my anxiety filled ass needed to let this out somewhere.

Quit labeling this as powerlevel, I know it's power level showing
Would be surprised if you didn’t have hundreds of stories about gross neck beards.

Should catch up with them years after the altercations only to find that they all the gentlemen went poly with the gentlewomen and created more horror stories

It's a good thing he didn't try to hug you.

i think the reason he didnt attempt to do anything was because cat ears (the girl) and BF was there and BF does tower over him and looked pretty tough even in cosplay.

Well that joke failed to land. : (

Jesus fucking christ, chill out.

I sincerely hope that whoever he was talking to said "this here is why women reject you"; because we all know that is.

Guys like this really dig themselves holes like this and then wonder why their dream waifu or husbando won't date them. I've mentioned the guy that on-off messaged me for like 6 months. He seriously didn't understand that he wasn't getting anywhere because he'd been a dickweed in the past, and just because he hadn't reached out for a month I wasn't going to forget shit. It's almost like he was hoping that holding off for some time would reset everything like a computer reboot.
 
It's sad seeing people who think that getting a girlfriend/boyfriend is their only chance at happiness.

Being single is far better than being stuck in a relationship with someone you can't stand.
This. I love my girlfriend to bits, but since we started going out I've had to alter my lifestyle in ways I wouldn't if I were still single. Not playing vidya as often as I used to because she isn't a gamer is just one of the sacrifices I've had to make (not that I mind). I can't imagine most of the guys featured in this thread being willing or able to make the changes necessary to share their life with another person, however much they might say they're willing to.

It's too late, he's an Incel. He black pilled himself already.
 
Someone mentioned it, we could probably make Nice Guy Bingo cards. Free space would have to be our autism symbol. We could get such classics on there like "roleplaying", "please respond", and "fedora/trenchcoat/katana" (maybe break em up for more squares?)

Anyone got suggestions?
Here's a jumping off point. You could probably just change the title.

I'm almost certain that this has been mentioned before. Either that or I'm thinking of reddit. But for any of you who are Stephen King fans, you might recognize his short story titled "I know what you need"
in case it's not been mentioned and you don't know what I'm on about, here it is
If you've not read it, it's definitely something I'd recommend (especially if you need more context than I'm giving here)

The whole story is pretty chilling and the antagonist is EXTREMELY nice guy-ish.
Basically the guy is a fucking crazy spookass that went to some mad measures to get with this chick.

The girl's friend/roommate tried to talk to her about this guy, that he lied to her about a few things and how his being there was awfully convenient. That he knew her since they were kids or something and probably had been into her for a long time. I'm just paraphrasing a bit here to keep things as short as possible
" '....Liz, hasn't it ever occurred to you that he's forced you to love him?'

Liz turned to her slowly. 'I've never heard anything so ridiculous in my life.'

'Is it? He gave you that sociology test the same way he gave his father the right side of the roulette board! He was never enrolled in any sociology course! I checked. He did it because it was the only way he could make you take him seriously!'

'Stop it!' Liz cried. She clapped her hands over her ears.

'He knew the test, and he knew when Tony was killed, and he knew you were going home on a plane! He even knew just the right psychological moment to step back into your life last October.'

Elizabeth pulled away from her and opened the door.

'Please,' Alice said. 'Please, Liz, listen. I don't know how he can do those things. I doubt if even he knows for sure. He might not mean to do you any harm, but he already has. He's made you love him by knowing every secret thing you want and need, and that's not love at all.'

He was like all the other "nice guys" by the end. Though the story is a little darker- he used modern voodoo to figure out her wants and needs. Used it to kill her boyfriend, all sorts of crap like that to get to her. Then he goes full nice guy near the end.
" 'You killed Tony!, She screamed it at him.

He took another step into the room. 'Yes, and I did it for you. And what are you, Beth? You don't know what love is. I loved you from the first time I saw you, over seventeen years ago. Could Tony say that? It's never been hard for you. You're pretty. You never had to think about wanting or needing or about being lonely. You never had to find. other ways to get the things you had to have. There was always a Tony to give them to you. All you ever had to do was smile and say please.' His voice rose a note. 'I could never get what I wanted that way. Don't you think I tried? It didn't work with my father. He just wanted more and more. He never even kissed me good night or gave me a hug until I made him rich. And my mother was the same way. I gave her her marriage back, but was that enough for her? She hated me! She wouldn't come near me! She said I was unnatural! I gave her nice things but. . . Beth, don't do that! Don't. . . dooon't -'"

" As she reached the second-floor landing, he came to the top of the stairs and called shrilly after her: 'Go on then! But you'll never be satisfied with any man after me! And when your looks go and men stop trying to give you anything you want, you'll wish for me! You'll think of what you threw away!' "

Hmm... so he does what every other nice guy does... Says things like"I'm the best guy for you and you'll regret this when you're older you'll wish you settled down with me". The only things missing from that last (spoilered) quote was the guy raging and going on a tirade about her "riding the cock carousel" and calling her a whore

I think this story was mentioned on reddit somewhere on a post like fuckin months ago. I just got reminded of it while having a discussion about books with someone.

I'm a fuckin dumbass
Okay, So I'm back to share an Incident my coworker, we will call her Steam, because she covered my shift on Friday because I was sick.

Steam is taller than me by a few inches, had waist length blonde hair, big brown eyes, blandly tanned skin, a face always resting in a bitchy look, big breasts, muscular, and long legged. She's not very bad looking to most of our customers and some of our workers. She's a very head strong woman who was working there longer than me and was the one who trained me in the job.

So the neckbeard encounter happened last friday while our store was having a sale. Steam decided to cosplay the character Giriko from Soul Eater, the female version from the manga. This small detail is very important thanks to the fact that the character is somewhat unknown to people who don't read the manga, plus how she also attracts a certain neck beard.

Steam was standing by a store in our mall that was on the same floor as our store, this store was another neckbeard hot spot since it was a store with some popular anime, CDs, Movies, old TV shows, gaming cards, Gaming merch, etc. It was like a glorified comic store. But they were cool with our little store since Steam also works there as well. Naturally they let her come in to chat and share information about the sell. But Steam told me a lot of useless details but here is the neckbeard part of her story. Steam was about four or five hours into her shift and was talking to Cat Ears, the girl from the last power levelish story I shared, and that's when she meets a lovely neckbeard known around this comic store as Over Powered. So OP had came over to Cat Ears and Steam who were talking about how Cat Ears can get a job at our store; he blurts in with saying,
"Who are you supposed to be?"
"Me? I'm Steam, from [Insert Our Store Name] and I'm cosplaying Giriko from Soul Eater."
"No way! That's not even close to Giriko. Who are you actually cosplaying, M' Lady Steam?"
Steam at that point wasn't aware, she was used to being called M'Lady since it became a joke around our shop so she continued
"Giriko in the manga becomes a woman and I'm here to talk about a sale in my store where you can get a full manga set with the corresponding anime it has!"
"Yeah, how he turns into a woman is interesting! I really recommend reading the manga." Cat Ears piped up, helping Steam out as OP moved to actually acknowledge her. Steam describes his face as it growing dark red and his eyes lighting up with a creepy predator like light. It seemed like OP saw Cat Ears as a more formidable M' Lady instead of the bitchy faced Steam who probably could bench press the dude, her words not mine, and he started getting closer to Cat Ears.
"I shall read it, M' Lady, but whom may be the name of the gorgeous goddess that blessed me with her beautiful voice?"
This is when Steam realized this was a bad idea to talk to him.
"Cat Ears."
"M' Gorgeous Cat Ears, Can I ask you for your number?"
Steam had watched this guy close in to corner her in the small area until an old woman and a taller and more clean looking man called OP to come back to them.
Steam told me that she later found out that it was OP's mom and stepbrother who called him back; apparently he's done this multiple times before and mostly doing it to women who are smaller than him, nerdy, clearly weak, and very sweet looking. Cat Ears ended up fitting that description while Steam didn't.

Steam is dressed as the brunette in this colored part of the manga panel.

ps, Cat Ears is being wanted for part time and I think she's gonna get the job. I hope she does since she is pretty sweet and kind.
