nice guys finish last

where did this phrase come from? and why is it that only supposed "nice guys" say it? i've always thought myself to be attracted to "nice guys" or at least guys that treat me well. but why is it that there is something attractive about the chase or someone that you might want to try to change? almost as though we enjoy torturing ourselves. i mean, what is the point of chasing a guy, when for most of us the second he returns the interest we're over it? and let's face it, no guy is going to completely change for us, so why do we insist on trying to make ourselves think that maybe they will.

the better part is that when i actually meet a "nice" guy that has all of the qualities i could ask for, i become skeptical. i look for flaws because finding a guy that is actually nice, smart, funny, and would want to be with me seems too good to be true. it's such crazy logic. but after years of chasing and hoping for change, i think i might finally be ready to meet a nice guy and take him for what he is and be happy with it! i mean it would have to be better than the alternative right?!
