It's not always good to try and be the good guy and hope everyone will like you. Some people go the extend of being extremely nice to the people around them or among their loved ones so that they will garner positive support from them. But in the end it helps no one. The person on the receiving end will learn nothing from the exchange and the person on the giving end will get more frustrated trying to be good.
The more important thing to do is to be yourself and not make a fool of yourself trying to be what you're not. The good cop bad cop routine is only in the movies and should be kept there for all times. To be the good guy you have to pretend to take everything in strife with the ones you fear and lash out again on the ones you love. When you think about it does that even make sense to you to even want to do that?
People who love you are usually the ones you can be your true self without the masquerade. So instead of trying to win votes from others who may or may not even appreciate your superfluous acting wouldn't it be better to lay out all your cards and not play games with anyone? To entertain people whom you need to satisfy may have been a requirement back in the old days to get that job or to win over that girl/guy's parents or favor from the bigshot. But do they need to happen at an age and time like this? Even prostitutes have gone a notch up to select their clientele.
Whatever it is falsifying your goodness is so easily identified and obvious and it can back fire before you realize you've become a laughingstock. People of today have more sensibility, intelligence and wisdom and the only person you can fool is yourself if you stick to your old school of playing goodness for goodness sake.
