Women Share Their Encounters With the “Nice Guys” Who Turned Out to Be Creeps

Offering shelter only to lay groundwork for personal motives is exploitation, not kindness. Leveraging someone’s most vulnerable moment to set the stage for your romantic interests is manipulative and destructive. It’s a betrayal that can feel as deep as the wound he was supposedly helping to heal.

Genuine support comes with no strings attached, not hidden agendas. People in a crisis need compassion, not opportunists waiting in the wings. It’s situations like these that sour the concept of the “nice” guy and underscore the importance of transparent intentions.
