This, and, speaking for myself, I once thought that's literally how you attract someone because that's what my mom taught me. "be nice to women, find a nice girl, ???, marriage." in that order. But I was nice to everyone, not just people I liked.

The one time I ever talked about how nice I thought I was, was when I was 18 and the girl I liked called me creepy when I was being nice to her all the time showering her with compliments and ttying to hang out with her. I went on this little rant, out of frustration, on FB in a status update about how women were bitches for not liking me and calling me creepy when I've just been trying to he nice to them. Yeah, at that point, that status update wasn't exaclty being nice to anyone.

Actually that was probably when I took a look at myself and realized just being nice isn't gonna cut it, and my mom's advice was shit. THEEEEEN, a few years later I heard about Nice Guys™

It's okay I'm now 32 and I have seen the light, it's just took me until a couple years ago to figure it all out
