I don’t get DCUM jokes. That mask person was joking, right?

I think the mask comment, especially the chimpanzee example, will go down in DCUM history. I can’t stop laughing.

Don't do this. You'll attract weirdos.

+1. And a mask is not “just another accessory!” Dear lord.

I beg to differ. It's just another way of accessorizing, i have a lot of fun with it and feel like it adds to a feeling of mystery.. Who is she? Who's the woman behind the mask? yada yada. If youre not happy with your looks, its time to flip the script and a mask might be just the thing. again, YMMV lol

But I also think you should adjust your expectations in the looks department for men as well. Face it -- the rich, gorgeous 8 to 10s get taken by the women who are 8 to 10 or so.

I have a single never married 40yo cousin who had very high standards for looks in men. She wanted someone who was tall and good looking. My cousin wasn’t bad looking but fairly average. She was average height, average weight and had an ok face. She could have easily married but her standards were too high for men. She wanted a 9-10 when she was probably a 6-7.

NP. Could you give examples of the things you do? I’m not doing anything at the moment and it shows.

Not the pp. I am in my mid forties. I have friends who still have it. I kind of have it but don’t try as much.

I know my friends in their forties do Botox. Some of them have had a mommy makeover with either a breast lift or implants, tummy tuck and probably other procedures. You can get your brows microbladed or nanobladed or other permanent/semi permanent makeup. Lashes make a huge difference.

You have to work at your diet and fitness. Many of my friends still look fantastic. They drink lots of water, eat healthy, run, workout most days.

Most men will go for anything with a vagina, so that’s why I’m not understanding.

Yeah, i know a man who thinks there is no ugly woman.

Are you ugly or just average? Makeup and lashes can do wonders.

If your nose is that bad, I would get a nose job.

What?
You mean like a full face mask? A little one over your eyes/nose?
I've been to plenty of parties/get togethers/happy hours and have never seen anyone wearing a mask.
If I was going to be interested in someone, I'd have to have a peek behind the mask very soon.

Glad you asked! Full face is covered, one is a chimpanzee head, kind of speaks to my playful side. Have tried smaller ones, cat-eye fun-girl feel with sparkles, but feel like the ones that cover full face get better results. You really just have to kind of follow your instincts and hope it matches with your outfit, in terms of color pallette.
