I refuse to be the nice guy

Hello, just wanted to post about the fact that I am sick and tired of playing the role of the nice guy.<br><br>I had a female friend and she would often tell me how women are so mistreated and her dad got kicked out of their house because he cheated but it was her mom's fault. I'm sorry for her but not for her dad. She once told me that a girl I had a crush on should go get the std test and she would refuse because she was a girl. I had no idea what she was saying but it turned out my friend was just trying to defile this girl to me. She had no proof of what she was saying but it was the truth.<br><br>Then yesterday I talked to a girl I have a crush on and she told me not to hit on her if I wanted to be friends with her. I had literally no intentions of hitting on her. I never have. I was just being genuinely friendly and she obviously assumed I had an ulterior motive. It's not the first time it has happened and it won't be the last but I hate being painted as the bad guy for just wanting friends. Women always assume I'm just another creepy guy.<br><br>These two things have happened with just two people and it's a common scenario. I just want people to stop assuming men are creeps. Because of women's need to feel victimized, I am vilified.
