''No More Mr. Nice Guy: A Proven Plan for Getting What You Want in Love, Sex, and Life'' is a 2003 self-help book by Dr. Robert A. Glover. He describes what he calls the "Nice guy Syndrome," a condition in men who appear to be always nice and avoid conflict at all costs. Glover's premise is that nice guys have been conditioned by their childhoods and by society to believe that they will be successful only if they make everyone happy and never cause any problems for others. However, this desire for approval results in self-loathing. In other words, nice guys want approval, but don't think they deserve it. This creates internal frustration, since nice guys never try to obtain what they want in life. In addition, the nice guy's desire to obtain approval from everyone (especially women), causes him to actually behave in very ''un''-''nice'' ways. This includes dishonesty (about themselves) and passive-aggressive behavior ("being unavailable, forgetting, being late, not following through..."). Dr. Glover's prescription involves getting nice guys to recognize that their needs and desires are important, and that to make others happy they must first learn to make themselves happy. One of the primary ways advised in the book to remedy this is for nice guys to learn to embrace and develop their masculine traits, instead of fearing and suppressing them. ==See also== *Nice guy *Fritz Angst aka Frits Zorn and his essay Mars 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「No More Mr. Nice Guy (book)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
