I had a 300 pound boss around 23 when in college. Kept insisting I go on date with her 19 year old sister. Finally I agree to meet her in club if boss and coworkers Came. She was literally a supermodel. Total shock. |
+100 |
Why do you think that would be an insult? Are you 13? |
+1 -Dorky female teen who became above average looking, and have been on both sides. |
I had the most beautiful friend in college. It was funny to go places with her. People would fall all over themselves for her. I enjoyed watching it, but tbh I never envied her.
I don't think it's always an easy life. She had a lot of heart break. I think it's easier to be a 7 or 8 than a 10. |
Agreed. Guys always end up marrying the plainer 5s who looks like a typical wife and mother. That way, they never have to be intimidated and they can always be the big man in charge. |
My best friend is gorgeous and, as a substantial result of her looks, quite rich (she does work hard, but a better looking/smarter woman has little chance against her).
Regardless, her life is absolute shit right now and she did nothing to deserve it. I am heartbroken for her. |
Agreed. The 10s I know are still single at 35. They had lots of guys interested in them, but often chose poorly. In comparison, the 5-8s are married with 1-2 kids. |
So OP is ugly.
Cool |
Why are there so many good looking people on this thread when maybe 5 percent of the population in the dmv is above average looking. Lol |
Is being married with 1-2 kids really any measure of “success” or achievement? Any idiot can get married and pop out some babies.... Let’s stop perpetuating this stuff. |
I know 2 beautiful women.
One is a gorgeous Pakistani woman whose looks compete with the fabled Aishwarya Rai. She is the sweetest, kindest, most good hearted woman I know. When you meet her. you are spell bound by the combination of her warmth and beauty. She lives a wonderful life with a rich husband that worships her and a great group of friends. She is also smart and went to Oxford and currently works in nutrition. I have never been jealous of her and instead warmly happy for her. The other is this Grace Kelly look-a-like WASPish blonde beauty who was my neighbor growing up. She was the kindest, most wonderful woman ever. A hard worker with a successful and distinguished career, 5 adorable children and an overall picture perfect life. She is so humble and a decent neighbor and friend to all. I love her with all my heart and wish her the best. Its the obnoxious beautiful goldiggers and social climbers with their nasty attitudes that I hate. |
And the ugly ones, too, for that matter! |
+1 Yes! So true! To be a "10" in DC is to be a "5" in metropolitan cities. Love it when DC women (or men) think they are all that - get out more. |
In my 20s, I would have people constantly stop me on the street to comment on my looks. I was slightly shy and reserved and never quite understood why people were swayed so much by looks. I think part of it is that I had this ethnically ambiguous look that seemed to fascinate people. I will absolutely say though that being attractive helps in many scenarios such as interviewing but then ultimately you can only depend on your looks for so long. |
