Are you a Nice Guy? Are you desperately trying to portray yourself as better, safer, more controlled, calm or intelligent than other men? And in so doing, is your sense of self less and less recognisable? If so, check out this video on an aspect of Nice Guy Syndrome: keeping the peace.
Do you feel the need to keep the peace for fear that otherwise, the less nice parts of you might be exposed? If so, it might involve great mental effort to control your environment so that everyone avoids uncomfortable emotions, or it might feel like walking on eggshells. And because you mustn’t rock the boat, the only way to meet your needs without directly asking is to try some form of manipulation.
The video also looks at how people become complicit in playing games so as not to expose the parts of themselves that are less palatable, their dark side, but in so doing, cut off the vitality inside of them. If you can relate to that, take a look!
