I think it's funny how they think a "mean look" in the real world is something intimidating.

The "death glare" probably does work like they say it does, just not for the reasons they think. It's probably less "I'm terrified of this guy and will do whatever he says so he doesn't hurt me" and more "Ugh, can we just not loving deal with this creep?"

NYquote:This troper generally stares down New York City cab drivers, while crossing the street, and when it's the cabbie's light. Retail quote:This troper works in the retail business and is generally complimented on how nice and helpful he is. However, it appears I have a very potent Death Glare. It was late and a customer was being downright rude to another cashier, basically calling her stupid and laughing about it. He accidentally makes eye contact with me and I'm NOT happy at that point in time with him. He stops laughing and doesn't talk for the rest of the order. Faint quote:My 4th grade teacher had the closest thing to a death glare you will ever see. I hope, even if you are a murdrer, that you don't, because no one deserves to see it, heck not any 4th grader. It made one kid faint in front of the whole class when she gave him the stare because he got a wrong awnser. That kid is usually pretty solid, too. Mates quote:This Tropers best friends in a nut shell. When they met they hated each other but liked me. Eventually the friend I had longest pissed off the new friend leading to him chasing the offender down (being the lazy rear end I am I didn't bother following) eventually leading to the new friend FLY KICKING THE OTHER IN THE BACK. They've been best mates ever since. Flowers quote:As an occasional Dogged Nice Guy myself, this only works if the Nice Guy makes it clear there is no pressure nor expectations. Basically this means explaining that you talk to her because you enjoy her conversation,and you give her flowers because she likes flowers and making her happy makes you happy. You do things thing not in an attempt to obligate her to return your affection but are perfectly satisfied with the immediate and direct effects. (This also means you have to be ready and willing to accept an "I want my Beloved to be Happy" ending.) Unfortunately this depends a lot on the perspective of the girls, as many insist on feeling obligated no matter how much you insist that they are not- in which case you better back off quick or else your friendship will be over. Of course if the girl has an actual love interest you probably won't get anywhere, although it can position you to catch her on the rebound. From what I've seen if this was translated into Love Interest Tropes, the the Dogged Nice Guy has the best chance with: Rich Bitch with a Heart of Gold (pity the fellow who chases one without a Heart of Gold), Broken Birds, Ice Queens, and a female Humphrey (I have personally seen a Dogged Nice Guy melt a female Humphrey- It took him 3 years, and everybody who knew her was in shock). Essentially a girl who either has something about her that scares other suiters away leaving the Dogged Nice Guy a chance to win by default, or a girl who starts off taking advantage of the Nice Guy only to decide that maybe she likes him after all- so while it can happen in Real Life, it is unusual. Friends quote:This troper believes reality is somewhere in the middle. It never hurts to ask again, but you have to have given them a reason to change their answer. Just asking again isn't enough, and being phony about your motivations only hurts. I once asked out a good friend and had things thrown at me to ephesize that she did *not* see me that way. We had enough of a common social circle that we agreed to sit down and work out how to live with each other. I explained that I really liked her, but it was her decision not to go out with me. I would not press the issue and would not wait for her to change her mind, but that due to common friends we would have to deal with each other. We continued to move in the same circles, and I actually did move on. I *did* ask again several months later after she expressed disgust that I was the only one who hadn't let her down after a large gathering. This time the answer was yes. We have been married for two years as of this writing.

So a le troper that is this one, was walking across the street in New York (New York) when I spotted this this taxi cab, and as I walked past it I kept staring at the driver, a big black guy, menacingly in Spanish. Then I got hit by another car coming from the opposite direction and now I'm in heaven and fellow le tropers I have to tell you anime is real here!

It's from a few pages back but I absolutely loving love this one:ibntumart posted:An open letter to my husband who yelled at me in public: I don’t care that you’re in therapy. I don’t care that you’re “working” with your therapist to think before you speak. I don’t care to hear your excuses, logic, or reasoning. I don’t care that you’ve “come a long way” because yelling at your wife in public is humiliating, degrading, embarrassing, and made me ashamed to be with you, to be your wife, and of myself. My dad could beat your daaaaaaad! e: my uncle works at nintendooooooo!

This one's great because he starts by saying "as a nice guy you should tell her that you're nice without expecting her to return the feelings" and then immediately tells you how to try to set it up that you're her rebound guy.
