Op here. I don’t dress too differently from my friend. She is more polished and puts more effort into her looks. She’ll never leave the house without hair and makeup. I often go to brunch in no makeup and natural hair.
I don’t understand how I’m attracting the hipsters and underachievers. I am well spoken, a lot more “sophisticated” than said friend in that I read a lot and am a policy wonk. She is simply...very pretty and into makeup and social climbing.
You answered yourself here. She is very pretty and outwardly sophisticated. Not many men care about you being a policy wonk-its pretty tiresome actually and I am saying this as a fellow nerd girl
OP, if you care about more than superficial qualities (looks/money/social status) in a boyfriend/husband than you should look for a man who cares about more than those things, which means he will care about what’s in your brain (what you read/ think about/policy etc). A decent, interesting, non sexist man will care more about who you are than what you wear. Yes, looks matter to a degree, but focus on meeting a good person who is ambitious, hard working, is in a decent occupation, not a trust fund woosy.

Op here. Wow. I didn’t realize someone can appear to be sophisticated by how she dresses/ styles herself. I thought that was all superficial/not important.
Of course it does. Look at a man in a suit compared to a man in a t-shirt and jeans. Very different projections.

yes. I am also ethnic looking. Not a "white passing" Indian.
Is your friend also Indian?
