Yeah that ep made me uncomfortable. Also Dipper is sometimes a "nice guy" with Wendy, but luckily that hasn't been too heavy-handed (yet).

[(Anonymous)]

I'm sort of put off by the whole issue with Robbie. He's not that much of a jerk, he's nice to Wendy.

[(Anonymous)]

He's threatening a twelve year old for no other reason than that he works with Wendy and she's nice to him. How is that not jerk behavior?

[(Anonymous)]

Dipper doesn't have the NG trait of resenting Wendy for not returning his wonderful feelings, at least.

[(Anonymous)]

But isn't that trait what makes a Nice Guy a Nice Guy? I think people are starting to mistake "Nice Guy" for "anyone whose crush doesn't like them back." (Tho I don't watch Gravity Falls, so this isn't a comment on how it's being portrayed with these characters.)

[(Anonymous)]

He basically feels she should like him over Robbie because he's ~nice~ and Robbie is just a jerk. There was an episode where he basically said he couldn't compete against a 'jerk in tight pants'. Then there's the episode where he kept changing the events of a day, because he felt if he hadn't hit her in the eye she never would have started dating the other guy.

[(Anonymous)]

lmao, are you serious? so, listening to what she has to say and caring about her without actually trying to be assertive is now being one of those dread "Nice Guys?"

[(Anonymous)]

He does feel he's better for her, so he went out of his way and screwed over an innocent man just to take away her choice. "Oh, if I hadn't hit her in the eye she'd ~so~ be with me instead!" That is NiceGuy(tm) to me IMHO.

[(Anonymous)]

He's also twelve. Let me repeat this: HE'S TWELVE. And twelve-year-olds are not known for their maturity or thoughtful consideration for other people when it comes to romantic relationships.

[(Anonymous)]

You know what else is problematic behavior? Acting aggressively towards anybody else the girl you're interested in is nice to, even if he's a 12 year old boy. Robby is twice the "nice guy" Dipper will ever be, with a side of creepy possessiveness. Plus he's probably a zombie.

What did Dipper do to try to "win" Wendy? Not hit her in the eye and get her a stuffed animal. Robby, meanwhile, is getting ini fights with 12 year olds.

[(Anonymous)]

Possessiveness isn't a Nice Guy trait, it's just a douche trait.
