If you have somehow never heard of a Nice Guy, allow me to define one for you. First of all, they must consider themselves to be nice. Second, they must feel entitled to romantic attention, whether it be male or female. And third, they turn manipulative, toxic, or straight-up really mean once rejected.
It's a pretty horrifying reality that many people — especially women — deal with, and it's come to my attention recently that some people are not quite aware of just how horrible Nice Guys can really be.
In case you've never experienced this — or have many times and would like to be seething with rage — here are 28 Nice Guys who truly give men a bad name.

13. This person was just being straight up with the guy she'd been talking to for a week and hadn't even met in person yet, and got told to "get in shape."
22. This guy tricked a girl into talking to him by suggesting he'd hire her for a gig, then tried to turn a professional interaction romantic, then went off the deep end when he was politely refused.
