Friend A is moderately attractive UMC girl with a curvy physique, loud and crude sense of humor, loves to party and wear revealing clothes. She gets tons of one night stands but never seems to be able to keep a good guy. She isn't a bad girlfriend; her past boyfriend was a sociopath who lied and emotionally abused her. The good "normal" guys she wants only sleep with her and then dump her. She is so sad being single.

Friend B is a very attractive brunette with a good sense of humor and sweet smile. She is a nanny and works in sales. She parties occasionally, hangs out with her parents a lot and dresses very preppy. She never had a boyfriend through high school and college because she always thought all the guys who hit on her were "gross." She would get a lot of attention but never reciprocate. Last year, she met this really great guy and they've been inseparable since. It's only been a year and they're already talking marriage.

What is going on here. Why is one friend so desirable and the other keeps getting dumped?

Interesting responses. Friend A is very attractive and openly suggestive. She also seems to pick the weird guys. Her ex was a jobless loser who lied to her and mooched off her for years. She is drawn to flawed people maybe because she thinks she can't do better? It isn't true. Good guys have also been attracted to her but she always ruins those relationships.

Friend B was always "prudish" and boring in high school and college. She was always conventionally attractive, stunning when she gets dressed up. Guys have always been attracted to her but avoid approaching her because something about her vibe tells them she is "too good" for them based on what they have told me. She has turned down SOOO many nice guys who would have been great boyfriends. She always told me she needs to find someone who is worth it and I always thought her expectations were too high and unreasonable.

Well...since last year I'm left eating my words. Despite having 0 romantic experience, the guy she finally said yes to seems to be quite a catch. He seems crazy about her, for one. He asked her out for a year until she finally said yes to going out with him. He treats her like gold and showers her with expensive presents (designer bags, jewelry, trips abroad). His family seems great! Wealthy but tight knit. They seem to adore her and have embraced her into their family. He also seems to be head over heels for her based on what I see. He is handsome, rich and very sweet and smitten.

Looking at them, I find myself thinking...is this real life? haha. Here's this girl who never gave any of the guys a shot until she found her prince.
