Am I too mean for a nice guy?

Gracious • 👑
So theirs this guy that I like and hes reallt nice (too nice) and I'm not mean but I'm just not as nice as him. If someone was to disrespect me you better believe im gonna say something mean back to you and I don't mean I'm not going to be evil just gonna insult you in the most intelligent way as possible AKA in other words Petty anyways he's really nice he's the type of guy that if you say something bad he will be like that wasnt nice (gossiping,trash talking etc)and i don't want to fall into that category where girls put the good guys last. My life has already been bad enough I don't need assholes in my life. To remind me how bad life was so basically I'm saying is this a bad idea to like someone who is nicer than me and what should i prepare for if i do get him *wink*?
