Mr Nice Guy - my theory
Over the last couple of weeks, I had many chats with Verrill, my good brother for about 10 years. While chatting and pouring out our thoughts and ideologies, we came to one conclusion. It’s tough being a nice guy. Mr Verrill Choo feels that he should be awarded the “Best Boyfriend Award” for all the shit he has put up with despite how he has been treated so unfairly in erm... (I won’t disclose it, so don’t worry Verrill) While for me, he said he will award me with the “Stupidest Guy Award”! Ha, I know I am and not one of my close buddies deny it. It’s just that they don’t blatantly say it in front of me.
Being a nice guy? What does that mean? Basically I only have one answer to that. That is, giving in, giving in and giving in still. Forgetting about yourself, about yourself and about yourself still. The Mr Nice Guy (MNG) will be the armor against whatever missiles, bullets or knives that come threatening. In military sense, the MNG is the first line of defense, almost impregnable. This is due to the commitment to a cause that a MNG believes in, and in turn, leads to the undying willingness to absorb whatever peril, precipice or even land mines. MNG always stand on just a thin layer of ice.
Are MNGs easily being taken granted for? I won’t say that they are, but we can’t deny that they will be conveniently used by people. MNGs are generally harmless, well they can’t bring themselves to hurt the people they like or love. MNGs are always there, waiting patiently. Whatever that’s churning inside their minds, they will accept it (or at least try) and absorb - like I mentioned earlier, all the fucking shit thrown onto them. In short, they pee against the wind, rather themselves than others. It is stupid yes, being nice compliments stupidity. You start caring about others and thus generally not giving a single worthy thought to yourself. Sad to say, MNGs can end up being short-term or backup options to people.
What happens when the thin layer of ice breaks or melts? Well, there’s a lot of uncertainties. Some MNGs will learn to become jerks instead, some when fallen, pick themselves up and replay the same role all over again. Not all ice will give way though. Verrill is still standing firmly even as it did threatened and trembled furiously. Mine gave way and I’m still stuck holding my breath in the ice cold water.
