The Nice New Guy Blog

Bienvenue! Welcome!

This is the first-ever post on this blog by a self-obsessed author (you've figured that out already).

Here is something about the person you're reading:

  • Conversant in English, French, Hindi, and a couple more Indian languages
  • Posts in English. Mostly.
  • Has covered more than a quarter of the 100 years he'll live if he gives up the occasional drinking and smoking
    • Won't give up the above two favorite past-times unless he wants to live up to 100, or he gets a girlfriend who nags and insists on quitting
    • The above two conditions may not meet at all
  • Has bought almost every book worth reading
    • Hasn't taken the time out to read many of them
    • Is now making an effort to read and enjoy the unread titles
    • Is good at speed-reading
  • Considers himself a movie buff
    • Is not really one
    • Is working on making himself one
    • Is good at predicting movie ends
  • Likes to travel
    • With friends
    • Alone
    • With strangers
  • Does not like people who are not informed
    • What's happening all around
    • About the philosophies of life (you need to have one or more favorites)
    • About the fun part in life
    • About the self part in life
  • Believes that he needs emotional, sexual, and motivational support from ladies, but
    • Does not fall for every nice (or bad) lady
    • Believes in fidelity once attached
    • Knows that he has to take care of himself in life and not be dependent upon anyone
    • Is looking for the girl who believes in the 3 above, and is looking for him too!
  • Loves Music
    • But does not claim to be a music buff
    • And likes to play, but not sing
  • Loves Photography
    • And still not too good at it
  • Too particular about the cologne he wears
    • And the shades of his belt and shoes
  • Doesn't like wearing a pink tie
    • Unless in a really bad mood
  • Knows his martial art skills
    • And how much he still doesn't know!
  • Likes to be honest
    • With friends
    • With family
    • With girlfriends
    • With mentors
  • Has done his part of 'faking' in this world, and is done with it
  • Is overall a Nice Guy
  • And knows that Nice Guys Finish Last
  • But knows that he won't be yet another loser
