If you're raised to look at everything as transactional, then "nice" is just an item in the toolbox to use when you want something.
Or worse, a weapon.

Um ok 2012 poster. My reading comprehension is shot.
Since there's no brehettes in this thread why don't you post about whether or not the lady/ladies in your real life are nice.
And five finger Molly is excluded.![]()
Now see.....yeah duh? i use manners and common politeness, that i would use with anybody in public or at work, at home and my husband acts like i’m dang ol mother theresa lls. but it’s not even that deep, im a nice** respectful person in general. i don’t even come across people who show me i don’t have to be nice to them because my life 99% of the time doesn’t put me in a position to really be disrespected or treated no type of crazy way in the first place
i think its a survival tactic that other people don’t learn the basics of getting along copastetically because of their life circumstances so combat is all they know. a little patience and grace can help these ppl grow….if you got the time
**key word tho being nice is different than letting violating shyt rock bc you don’t want to make waves or hurt feelings. but those things can be addressed in a calm polite, respectful (aka nice) way

^^wifed up^^Of course. It's the LEAST you can do as a woman, especially if you date black men. He goes out and works hard every day in a hostile world; why would he want to come home to more hostility?
My husband likes a little bit of feistiness in the right context, but never disrespect or meanness.

I can understand this.yeah duh? i use manners and common politeness, that i would use with anybody in public or at work, at home and my husband acts like i’m dang ol mother theresa lls. but it’s not even that deep, im a nice** respectful person in general. i don’t even come across people who show me i don’t have to be nice to them because my life 99% of the time doesn’t put me in a position to really be disrespected or treated no type of crazy way in the first place

It also helps that we are both adults who pick up behind ourselves and enjoy cooking and cleaning. A lot of women harbor a lot of resentment towards men who want them to take extra time out of their day doing that type of shyt, while they don’t do anything. When you actually have an equal, it’s less stressful. Both of you get time to play and enjoy yourselves, instead of one person feeling like the help so the other can feel like the leader.
