Do nice guys finish last?
There’s been much talk of why Nihita Biswas agreed to marry Charles Shobraj. Maybe she is just a gold digger, but does that settle this question which baffles many people whenever a girl in the news or our surrounding takes those extra steps to be with a bad boy that she usually never takes to be with a “good guy?” Do nice guys always finish last? I am having this discussion on twitter and I have collected a selection of links (mostly supported by scientific or psychological studies):
