Yes. Being nice is extremely important to me and something I actively work on.

People use the phrase "too nice" to describe me all the time, but I highly disagree with their assessment. I think those are people who just don't know me very well, or have never done anything to make me turn in the other direction. Generally, yes, I am very nice, but rubbed the wrong way, my inner bitch has no problem showing herself.

Yes and no.
I'm kind, loyal, and generous to a fault.
But, I don't like being f*cked with.
If people do that to me in a significant degree or with adequate frequency, they're dead to me.
Don't care what happens to them after that; and I'll probably laugh about it.

No. I consider myself a deeply flawed person who nonetheless tries to do the right thing most of the time.

Generally speaking, I think I'm a nice guy, just very reserved and may come off as not friendly.
But, also, there are a few I'm not nice to, and am proud of not being nice to those few. For good reasons.

Me? Not particularly, not anymore. I used to be, I used to go out of my way to be nice, polite, helpful, reliable, and other things that are so readily exploited. While I'm not completely being a right bastard by way of over-compensation, I'm definitely more bitter and cynical.

I don't think about being nice, that is a call for other people to make. In fact I can think of a whole lot of people who, if they thought of me as "nice", I would be deeply disappointed. In the end I would rather that good people thought of me as someone they could trust, and bad people thought of me as someone they had to worry about.
