Read books that change your point of view on life, from Rational Male by Rollo Tomasi to Stoicism.
Do martial arts, pickup, weightlifting, anything competitive.
Make a decision to stop being a nice guy, and act accordingly. This is a final step, and nobody can make this step for you.

Make a commitment to being COMPLETELY honest in your life. This will force you to because the person you want to be. Then put yourself first if you are not happy that your needs are being met, you can not make anyone else truly happy.
Understand that being 'nice' is just another method of manipulation, and women see this as dishonest. Be direct and go after what you want and stop trying to nice your way to success. It doesn't work.

Channel your excited feelings into positive thoughts and behaviors. You will attract women by being enthusiastic, radiating energy, and becoming someone who is fun to be around.

You dont need to stop being nice, just know your limits, you probably had bad exoeriences with people and you learned from it hopefully, be yourself, you dont need to change your personality because of women, ofcourse dont be women in relationship, but if she doesnt see your value, **** her, it is her loss, wanting to be something else is a wasfe of person you are.

Know and understand how cruel people can be. Know that women are not an except at all. Try to ingest at least part of the nature of women. And read of horrible stories of how women have ****ed their man over. That last part will cauterize all possible wounds you have left in your heart. I didn't need to TRY to change my behavior at that point, I naturally just did without even really realizing it.

-Generally, there's a difference between being a nice guy and being a 'nice guy'; it's all about intent.
>A nice guy is just friendly and polite to people regardless of outcome. It's just the way he is, he treats everyone equally. He intends nothing, but is authentic and genuinely charismatic.
>A 'nice guy' is nice to people because he wants something from them, whether he even realises it himself or not. He is usually overly-polite and overly-familiar with certain people who he thinks will be of benefit to him; particularly women and those men he considers to be more powerful. He's a suck-up and playing a role, acting in ways he thinks he should; actually not a very nice guy at all.
-Develop a set of personal standards that you mark people against. You don't (and probably shouldn't) openly communicate those standards. Rather you quietly judge people for yourself. If they don't meet the cut, don't go out of your way to make it work, in fact just walk away from them, may be until such time they meet your standards, otherwise may be forever. You're not going to be friends with everyone, so don't expect to be.
-Do things for others. But do more things for yourself.
-Learn to enjoy your own company.
-Your investments in other people should be roughly equal to their investment in you, particularly acquaintances and friends; family is slightly different. If you are feeling drained by someone in some way, you're being a nice guy. If you are constantly drained by someone for 6 months or more, you're being a 'nice guy'; you are allowing yourself to be taken for granted because you think one day they will return the favour.
-Don't take girls out on dates until they earn the privilege and show serious interest in you as a person. Mostly, make plans of your own and invite women of interest along with you. This way, you put your plans first and they are accompanying you for their benefit and your added bonus.

Thanks for all the advice, i appreciate it. I think the main problem is i act like a nice guy out of fear of the persons reaction or thoughts towards me if im not the nice guy people expect.

Your overdoing it. We can treat our friends and acquantances good that treat us good. But rewarding bad behavior and no reciprocation with continued niceness is BS.... You don't have to be an a-hole up front, but if someone violates you or robs you don't they deserve it?

first you need to understand why you are being perceived as the "nice guy"
then you can work from there , you dont necessarily need to be a selfish ignorant a$$hole , but you do need to concentrate on what works for you first and others second

Im percieved as the nice guy in general because i dont have it in me to tell people how it is and i fear the outcome of telling people how i feel

You shouldn't mind losing those friends and associates. You can't go fighting everyone who gets over, but you don't have to keep allowing it.
Peace and Quiet
If you currently have too many women chasing you, calling you, harassing you, knocking on your door at 2 o'clock in the morning... then I have the simple solution for you.
Just read my free ebook 22 Rules for Massive Success With Women and do the opposite of what I recommend.
This will quickly drive all women away from you.
And you will be able to relax and to live your life in peace and quiet.

That's interesting concept. Can you elaborate?

Master Don Juan
Not. Some folks don't know how to say no, it doesn't arise, they want to be a "good friend". Not realizing the person asking of the resource is not doing that for them.

It's not always manipulative, only in the context of a beta orbiter / smarmy wannabe player. As I've said in my post, being nice is only manipulation when you want something in return. Being authentically nice because that's who you are is nobody's business but one's own.

You are being 'nice' with the expectation of reciprocity. This is why we have "Red Pill Rage"... when men realize that being nice will get you nothing in return. Otherwise, why would men rage? If you are being nice for the sake of being nice, then why get upset that the girl you love... who you have been so nice to... buying her things... dropping whatever you are doing to help her... let's herself get fvcked by a dude that treats her like garbage and wipes his c0ck on her curtains as he walks out her door.
Read the posts of the guys that come on her for the first time many have the same formula. "I don't know what happened... I was so nice to her... I did everything for her, and all she wants is to fvck bad boys!" They think being nice will get them laid... it won't.

Personally I DO expect reciprocity on some level. I SHARE gifts with people who SHARE gifts with me. I loan money to people who will loan to me. I'll help people who will help me.
I cut off people that think it's a one way street. This is the way many of us operate, many of us don't like to continue giving into a black hole.
