trying too hard
adj: Used by women to describe men that behave appropriately  and exhibit all of the qualities they desire.  Purpose is to veto potential sex candidates and prove that women can't accept positive attention.  Undisputed proof that women don't know what they fucking want, but are pretty certain that they prefer being treated like shit.
Woman1:  Reggie maintained a witty and intelligent conversation with me, took me out to a nice dinner, paid for everything, didn't try to get me drunk, and didn't take advantage of me when I passed out on his couch.  I've been screening his phone calls all day because he was trying too hard.

Woman2:  My boyfriend hits me during sex and not during sex.

Woman1:  Lucky.
