And why does kindness have to be something special?

Now talking seriously about the subject;

People in general say I'm someone who's always nice and always happy. In reality, of course this isn't true. I have my problems and I've had times where I was seriously depressed. I don't think it's necessary to bother people with my problems and if I'm nice to everyone, surely people will be nice to me, right? (Lol, hell no, people'll walk over you after a while and think you're a total push-over.)

I used to be very introverted and aggressive though. I wouldn't talk much to other people and when they pushed my buttons, I'd quickly find myself in a fight. I've changed from then though, becoming more social and being much nicer to everyone, only pushing back when people think they can walk all over me.

People who are so nice that they start to become creepy? Never met them. Just know that behind every nice face, there's probably a person who just wants to be liked by people, it doesn't matter what reason he/she has. That's his/her business, not yours.

If you are too kind too often then the kindness loses it's emphasis/oomph. People who are kind too often won't be taken as seriously as often as another guy who will act neutral or get legitimately pissed at someone and act the part. It's like that kindness has just been watered down.

I will let loose and act like an asshole a lot, and other times I just won't give a shit and act completely neutral, but that makes it to where when I do act nice (which is more than I might be accidentally implying here), people will know I'm legit about it and feel it as something rightfully earned in one way or another, which is a good, comforting feeling for them, and hell, a good feeling for me as well.

You're not being a cynical old man at all. In fact, you're being an emo teenager.

A cynical old man would have been polite back to her, but otherwise completely ignored her, and waited for an opportune moment to make her look as stupid as possible in front of as many people as possible. However, a cynical old man wouldn't care about her facade, because a cynical old man realizes that everyone has one. No, a cynical old man would have embarrassed her because he has learned through experience that the best way to get someone to like you is to make them feel like they owe you. Cognitive dissonance, you see. Works even if the thing they're trying to repay is actually more like revenge. It makes them wonder why they care so much.

Wow... this went well. 4 pages of bashing the OP because he has an opinion that is different than yours. To be fair I guess I should have framed the thread better with questions like "Do you think it's possible to be too nice?" or "When does being too nice become annoying to you?". Honestly I've been around long enough to realize making a thread in CD is not a great idea in the first place.

As for the me coming off as a jerk to the girl is because I was. If I didn't make it clear I disliked her as a person and didn't want to have any sort of conversation with her. I couldn't exactly tell that to her face unless I wanted to start up the rumour mill and get myself hated by everyone in the school including the teachers. Probably get my ass kicked by her fan club in the process too. Plus I'm just not that sort of person, I'm rather polite in real life. Like I said before she disillusioned my friend into thinking he had a chance with her even though she turned down everyone who asked her out. Like any good friends we listened to each others problems and guess what I would have to listen to like 3/4 of the time. It was painful to watch my friend and he took it really hard when he eventually got rejected as well. Her occasional attempts to start conversations with me also got on my nerves. You would think she'd get the message the first few times, but she just kept coming back like she was on a mission to get me on her side, even when it was clear I had no interest in talking to her. I'd even be reading a book or doing homework sometimes, but that didn't stop her. I only acted the way I did with her because I personally disliked her and knew her for a fairly long time. This is definitely not how I behave with strangers. Speaking of being rude to strangers...

I'm not sure if your having a shitty day or what, but theres no reason use ad hominem against people over the internet for having a different opinion than you and making massive cunt of yourself.

A few possibilities, though by no means exhaustive:

In my experience, people who are 'over-friendly' tend to want something or are trying to get something out of it but that doesn't bother me.

Plenty of people are just friendly by nature, that's no reason to dislike them. I'd rather put up with somebody who happens to be friendly rather than a rude prick all the time.

Or she might be none of that and OP's buddy got the wrong idea on his own, and then simply shared his bitterness with his friend. More common and plausible than 3/4th of your suggestions, if you ask me.

I'm sometimes told that I'm a good person but then they find out that I also have my bad moments in life, where I'm excessively mad. It rarely happens though I do not like it. It'd prefer to be nice to everyone and that everyone has a nice time being all together. Sometimes I wonder why people are so angry these days *sigh* I hate that.

You must not like "aggressively nice people" (Spongebob voice). It probably would have been best if you simply told her you didn't want to talk to her. Sure, your responses did give off that impression, but sometimes you have to be direct so you could have saved her and your time

I'm pretty friendly and I'm an introvert. A lot of people tend to think I'm very odd but it doesn't really bother me. Sometimes I've been asked why I'm so nice, I honestly don't know how to answer some people whenever they ask me this cause I've always been nice since I was even younger. Shared my toys with all of my friends, but yet they never brought out their toys ever. Never asked why though, I'm just a loving and friendly person at nature. :) A lot of people however think I'm faking my friendliness though, this confuses me.

Would you have preferred everyone to be overly nice and respect your opinions and attitude without shitting on them? oh wait....

battosai-01 said:

A polite person wouldn't have intentionally been a jerk to someone because they didn't like them. A polite person would have ignored or told them they have no interest in talking at that time. You dislike people who are too nice, then complain when everyone isn't nice to YOU, seems rather like a spoilt child's attitude to me.

And a cynical old man wouldn't even bother wasting his time with such people in the first place to even have the patience to complain about them in a thread. Because they would have little interest in such things and dismiss them as childish people not worth his time.

battosai-01 said:

Couldn't have said it better myself, why would this even mean anything to you if you are such an cynical old man who can see through the lies of others to reveal their real selves. Seems to me the way you wrote it, you got some kind of pleasure from been ignorant to this person to make them feel as uncomfortable as possible. Probably to punish them for something. Is this person a fake overly nice person who is really an asshole, probably yeah but the difference is your attitude is no different and the way you acted around her is no better than her fake attitude.

And when you complain here that people aren't been nice to you or respecting your opinions, try thinking that the next time you don't like someone elses way of life, like say been overly cheery.

Answering the original thread, I think only people who act too nice just to get your business are assholes.

For example:

I had to ship a really, really large package to a friend. It was so big that the shipping price went over a thousand dollars, but she wanted it no matter what. When that transaction done, and when I told the manager that there's another big package just like that coming, he started becoming super nice. Before, when I shipped little packages, the manager was an asshole who never smiles and grunts a lot and wouldn't even let me rent a cart to put multiple heavy packages in, let alone help me carry them by hand. He called like three times within one week asking when I was going to ship the second package, saying things like, "oh if you have any problems, just give me a call!" and "whatever you need, I'll even help you take the package right from your home!" Pisses me off.

I'm always extra wary around people who are cheery and kind especially if they always seem that way, because it just leads me to think they either bottle up all their negative emotions and may someday snap, or during unsociable hours they indulge themselves in degrading activities to keep sane.

I like to be nice as often as possible because that's the kinda person I want to be. I have my downsides like everyone else, but I will always TRY to be a good, friendly, trustworthy person.

I don't think anyone is perfect. Least of all myself...

But humanity is special because we always strive for the things we can't reach. I want to be someone who works hard for others. Someone who is nice without a motive other than the desire to be nice.

I suppose it's good eatin' for my ego, also, but hey, humans are imperfect, like I said, lol.

It's called confirmation bias, if you think someone isn't being genuinely nice there is in the overwhelming majority of cases no way to actually prove this unless you actively stalk them or something. If you think they're being full of shit you'll interpret everything in a way that supports that, and as with all things it's a two way street where some people will thing the most inept conniving twofaced bastard is actually nice if that's the impression they have.

A study I once read said something like your opinion of a person is all but set in stone within the first minute of meeting them, as your brain works in a way that supports it's own assumptions or something. As a disclaimer I should note that I am not sure of the accuracy of this mysterious study, and I might be experiencing confirmation bias myself in believing it.

I am probably one those too friendly, happy people which you hate :D I don't claim to be exceptionally kind though, I just find other people genuinely interesting and most people respond to that. Seriously though, if this girl is friendly to everyone, including the girls, she is probably genuine. The manipulative girls who must be the centre of attention of all the guys are fairly easy to pick because they don't like other girls getting attention, nor do they try to be friends with other girls (although that may be easier for women to see as they usually put up a nice act in front of the guys). It is unfortunate that your friend's affection wasn't returned but there is not much you can do about other people's feelings. If she didn't give him special treatment, he can't complain about being strung along and you can't exactly preemptively tell a guy not to fall in love with you. You do have a point on the calling everyone sweetie or darling is very annoying though.

I am usually friendly to people in general but until a point when the person ur talking to knows you well enough so then you can be more of your character, but also I don't see the point of being rude.
When I was younger I totally followed the idea of being very nice to people, but I started to understand that "nice", after a period of time talkin with someone gets very annoying and makes you look like a robot. I'ts good when you learn from mistakes.

TL;DR: Be yourself
