The Dark Side of Nice People

Let's talk about the dark side of nice people. You may think that being a nice person is a good thing, but it can have some pretty negative consequences. The problem with nice people is that they are too agreeable, which leads them to be easily manipulated by others. However, they can be manipulative themselves as well.

Another problem with over-friendly people is that they use their niceness as a weapon against others. They're so eager to please and so desperate for approval that they'll do anything for it — including sacrificing themselves for no reason at all (martyr complex). But being a people pleaser doesn't leave much room for taking care of themselves, which can lead to anger and resentment.

In this video, we further explore the dark side of nice people and how the dark side of being nice can manifest itself.

Being nice has hurt me more than any thing I can think

[junebhattacharjee]

Being nice has brought great loss for me 💐

[BelovedbyAdonai]

Just remember: a LOT of narcissists come across extremely nice...at first!!

[dln]

My life changed for the better when I stopped trying to be liked & began being me. Love me or leave me alone.

[FolkeBernadotte]

Real nice people are REAL nice PEOPLE. They ain’t angels. But they’re NICE PEOPLE. & yes they do exist. They’re not to be taken for granted/used/exploited. They deserve respect for sure.


There’s a huge propaganda to vilify nice people, calling them names (like simps or so…), and glorifying bad boys or bad girls. Nice decent people do make the world a better place.

I always say just because you're nice; it doesn't mean you are a good person. It's best to be a fair human being

[mohamedhassanain]

I don’t think this right for all nice people, maybe for those who uses nice for a hidden agenda, like manipulative, or insecure people

[TheJds]

There is nothing wrong with being a nice person I wouldn't agree with everything in this video however I do agree that if you're too nice people will disrespect you and walk all over you you can be a nice person but at times you have to be firm and assertive to let people know where you stand and what you will and will not tolerate

[susannelowman]

I've learned that what others think of me is none of my business. Very freeing.

[dianeswift]

Being nice is painful, people will only use you for their benefits. Don't be too nice with everyone coz it will destroy our life. Learned my lesson.

[esejayp]

Your judgement fits your own meaning of “NICE people.” 🙏🏼

[maranatha]

What’s wrong with keeping a secret and what’s wrong with being nice to others you have to be careful who you are judging and why.

Niceness, is indeed, the best "foot" to put forward. I'm a southern girl, & I do believe in gentility. But, beware, friends, that niceness & kindness, are often the hallmarks of 'wolves in sheep's clothing!' But not always. Learn to establish the difference. Wisdom is the very study of difference. Trust your internal dialogue & no matter what, kindness, is always proper & mannerly! Hope everyone's weekend is highly blessed! And, I do mean that sincerely!🌹💜🌎

I’m grew up with manners, so I’m kind to people. I’m a introvert so I don’t really talk to people unless I’m comfortable with them. If I don’t know you like that my conversation are usually short. I always have a smile on my face to appear friendly and approachable. People always come up to me and talk to me. I treat people the way how I would like to be treated. I don’t think I let people walk over me because I don’t talk to that many people.

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with being nice. You just have to know when to be nice and when to be serious. I’m not sure why society make it seem like being nice is so horrible and being mean is the new norm. Even the other day I asked this guy “Can you please help me carry some groceries”? He was shock and said yes he could help me and said that I’m so nice. I thought having manners was normal.

Why do people think being nice = to being all walked over?

Off topic: One of the things that makes a female look more feminine/ attractive is her personality, and how she deal with people. Most men want a kind, feminine, and nursing woman.

[andrewpowers]

Someone recently told me there is a difference between "niceness" and "kindness." Niceness is what you do as a reaction, to help out others, but you don't necessarily mean it out of the goodness of your heart. Kindness you do because you genuinely want to help. I think that's the idea behind this.

[the_superking]

Never trust anyone no matter how kind they are with you, remember the devil was once an angel.

[sebelzahntigerkind]

I have stopped being nice. People are usually not taken very seriously and even walked all over, when they just want the best for everyone. Also, nice people tend to sell themselves short. Stop it. Take care of Yourself, first and foremost, if you don't wanna end up taking care of selfish people who don't give a damn about you.

[jacknjill]

I’m a nice person but wasn’t always that way. But the way the world is today, I feel I need to stop being so nice and like everyone else, lookout for myself first. Meaning be more selfish bc no one now seems to appreciate reciprocating.

[ay-tjpj]

Humans are both good and bad that's why sometimes you see them good, and sometimes you see them bad. Humans are not perfect.

[tammywilson]

I am a nice person and I help every body I can I don't agree cause everybody is not the same
