Why might kindness be so hard to bear? Why should warmth prove - on occasion - comprehensively repulsive? Why might nausea descend in the face of emotional maturity?

“There are many things that might disrupt the mood of a promising early date: a sudden discovery of a maddening political opinion, a grating laugh, poor dental hygiene, an unfortunate choice of top. But there is a far more perplexing and, superficially at least, paradoxical kind of distaste that might abruptly arise. One might want to take leave of a companion - and even rush outdoors to vomit - not because they are crude, dim or nasty but because they have revealed themselves to be undeniably and conspicuously nice…”

It's pretty sad that people get scared about being loved unconditionally or by the fact of being liked without any test to pass beforehand. And it's pretty sad for both sides. Usually who are nice are seen as fake or two-faced, while we expect nothing except for a nice chat and, if things go right, a friend.

@dragonwitch27 2 ай бұрын

The only relationship that might come close to unconditional love is that of parent and child. Otherwise, it's never truly unconditional. The School of Life videos are typically great, but this one, unfortunately, conflates various mental/emotional issues. If someone is "testing" you in order to attempt to feel secure or rejecting you before you can reject them, you're probably dealing with someone with greater mental health problems, like Borderline Personality Disorder. Otherwise, the "repulsion" and discomfort that the video talks about tends to stem from distrust. If you grew up in a household (as I did) in which love and support always came at a price, you end up suspicious of people's motives. I have no problems with love and intimacy...if I think it is sincere.

@SweetLadyDark 2 ай бұрын

What I meant by using the word 'test' was that, when some people decide to talk to you, they show that distrust and distance, as when one passes a finger through a flame, with fear of getting burnt, although there is no real danger here. Then again, there certainly are people with mental health problems that we don't know about, but some simply are hurt and have that hard shell on them and your kindness feels like water trying to get in for them, and that scares them away.

It is utterly absurd that so many people think they can assess the motives of nice people.

Personally, I'd much rather be surrounded by inauthentic niceties than authentic cruelties.

@@KevlarKoat I disagree. Sometimes "shielding" people from your vulnerability is a form of kindness. Not everyone needs to see that part of you, nor deal with it. That's when the kind-looking shell, is actually good. Of course you shouldn't use that with the people who are closest to you, but people in the street, a supermarket cashier or a taxi driver don't need to know that you're having a bad day, so being "fake" nice and just "passing the moment nicely" becomes very powerful. I personally experienced living in two cities with the two extremes, Tokyo and Berlin. In Tokyo, people are VERY "fake" nice and extra polite while in Berlin people are very blunt, if they're having a bad day they WILL let you know. In my opinion when it comes to the relationship with strangers and service workers Tokyo was way more comfortable because even though people were "fake" nice, the vibes were always nice and positive. While in Berlin, a simple task like going to the Bank becomes very stressful because you'll have to deal with angry people, annoyed people, rude people who won't even try to be "nice" even a "fake" nice. I don't know but to me it feels selfish to priorities expressing your authentic feelings over maintaining a relatively "positive" vibe in shared spaces. Again, I'm not at all talking about very close relationships, there you can show your real self as much as you want.

While there are definitely people like that, I think people always assume the worst of nice people. And it's also sad how nice people get taken advantage of sometimes. Their kindness is used against them to the point where they learn that being nice is not a good thing to do, leading them to stop being nice and distrusting other nice people as a result.

I’ve always been known as a pure soul and a kind person. I’ve always wondered why people ghost me when I thought things were going so well. Then after a couple months they try to come back and apologize saying how no one’s treated them the way I have. I’m someone who moves on fast bc life waits for no one but I just wish someone would just stay for once. I don’t want to get hurt then be left with a decision to take someone back or not all the time

I also think that niceness (in contrast to kindness) comes across as disingenuous, because the nice person is essentially saying that "I will cater to you to win your approval so that your approval will give me the self-worth I so blatantly lack". And this, unfortunately, does not invite respect. What we advertise as our self-worth determines how much others will value us.

I'm just going to keep being nice. I don't mind if it leads to being alone. When you try to be something you're not, it will just lead to unhappiness. I just feel like you should be honest, whether you're nice or not. If they don't appreciate the kindness then it's not a match, and that's ok. If I tried to be something that I'm not, that would just make me either a psychopath or desperate, not necessarily mutually exclusive. Being something that you're not seems like a lot of work. If the other person is so embittered that they don't appreciate kindness, that may not be somebody you want to put a lot of effort into. It will be more of an uphill battle than what it's worth. Be yourself and be honest. A lot of it has to do with your physical attractiveness anyway. You have a little bit of control over that, but not a lot. In other words if you're attractive and nice, they will be more receptive to you. If you are unattractive and nice then they will be repulsed by you. If you are attractive and not so nice, they will find you interesting. It's not as complicated as we all make it out to be. We just need to look in the mirror and be honest with our level of attractiveness. Luckily, studies show that if you are a man, you are more honest about your level of attractiveness than women are. Smile, and be yourself. You only have one skin to live in.

Many people are out for themselves and are fake and shady and when we meet someone who is genuine and real we get suspicious because it’s not the norm. The song “Head Over Feet” by Alanis Morisette has a lyric that speaks to this: “You treat me like I'm a princess I’m not used to liking that”. This lyric is clear that unfortunately most people aren’t used to good partners 💔. The song goes onto sing that she’s never felt this healthy before and has never wanted something rational. She then asks herself what took her so long to realize her best friend was the love of her life. Her kind best guy friend was standing in front of her all this time and only now has she realized he’s always been perfect for her. Some women take good men for granted and friend zone them because they want the bad boy. I also think some people dislike kind partners because they get jealous of them because they know deep down they’re cunts and don’t deserve a kind person. This person needs to work on themselves in therapy. Also, some people have a penchant for always pursuing assholes. When this person stops pursuing and lets themselves be pursued they might attract a kind person. Since they’re used to being in control as the pursuer and since they pursue assholes, they’re not used to sitting back and being pursued by a nice person and, in turn, may reject the nice person because that person doesn’t possess the shitty personality they’re used to dating.

I think this analysis holds true in many cases, having seen several people become emotionally healthier and then gravitate towards friends and partners who treated them better. They were then less likely to keep trying with people who mistreated them. That said, I wonder if it helps to make a distinction between "nice" and truly kind. Sometimes we flash back to experiences with people who were fake-nice. They proceeded to backstab us, or hurt us when they had the power to do so and/or nobody was watching. No to mention the whole "nice guy" or "nice girl" phenomenon wherein a person is over-the-top "chivalrous" but then abuses you if you don't give them what they want. On top of that, there are those nice people who are really just people-pleasers or conformists. They would also follow the crowd in a negative direction, for example in bullying or spreading lies. Real kindness lies in doing the right thing even when it's seen as weird. These scenarios show how a good guy can be exciting, but a bad boy can be boring because he's following a rebellious template. I hope we all get better and better at appreciating true kindness and distinguishing it from mere niceness. Thanks for reading.

I've never felt this way about kindness but more so I'm scared of failing someone I love. which stops me from falling in love. I like this video though it sheds light on to people who might be purely nice by nature and how they're displayed to people who think of nice people like this.

Jesus is the way truth and life, we gotta get to know a person and be genuine. We shouldn't play with love, it's marriage or nothing, Otherwise we set ourselves or the other for heartbreak.

I’ve been thinking about this a lot because the guy I just walked away from shared how he still was a bit heartbroken over a girl who he described as “super cold” and “never acknowledged my effort or when I showed I cared”, but he showed very little interest in me or passion towards our connection, when I was so sweet/nurturing/understanding to him. Definitely made me feel like, damn so maybe we do need to play it cool to get someone to like us. But I think the truth is we both got the same shit going on. He’s stuck on that girl because she didn’t give him love freely, and I was chasing him because he wasn’t giving it to me freely. Sadly, when someone genuinely gives me the love and attention I desire, it makes me nervous and I lose interest. I’ve been like that since I was a kid. I’ll have a big crush on a guy and as soon as he likes me back, I run.

Have you spoken to a therapist about that? It's a serious question because if your constantly chasing a guy who doesn't give the attention your giving him, it'll never work.
