Posted: 11/27/2007 7:02:39 PM | | Ok. I know this is tv stuff, but anyone remember on Sex and the City when Charlotte-beautiful Charlotte, TOTALLY loved the bald, sweaty attorney---looks are not what makes you stay---in love--real love--its the person--sounds corny but I think its true--I have no picture for other reasons right now, but I am attractive, classy lady- I have always been--(and don't slam me for saying that-please) long ago I married the typical bookworm, banker nerd--tall, skinny, glasses, the whole pkg--and I LOVED him--I had my share of the good looking, big football players and coaches and all that--but when I met him--- it all was good--it did not last because of an affair he had with someone he worked with--a druggie, drunk-stayed in treatment--and I questioned myself--why wasn't I enough---I quit asking myself that----its been thirty years -(he's) fourth marriage- and he still loves me--but he didn't one time...thats all it took--trust, looks, money -who decides why we are really holding it together--sometimes nothing is enough | |

Posted: 11/27/2007 7:17:30 PM | I also believe that pretty women get overlooked as well. There is a girl at college who I've had a crush on for a while and I was surprised when she agreed to go out for lunch one day soon. She's the pretty, blonde athlete and I thought for sure she was dating somebody.
I still don't know for sure if she has anybody but plan to find out. I hope that for once a pretty girl won't look at me not looking like a model and turn me down. Boy would that be a breath of fresh air lol. I have talked with her enough to know that she sounds very sweet and mature and that is good enough to start off with for me! i'm not quite so nervous now.
As for Belle you ahve the right to call yourself attractive but don't gush about tit oo much or people may mistake you for being too stuck on yourself. Yeah Kathi that post was pretty uncalled for but from what I've seen on here it's no surprise that it popped up on here!
Thanks for the "Good Times Guy" comment suckafish lol. Not only do I think of the show but that song from the '70s that features Jimmy Walker repeatedly saying Dynomite! lol.

Posted: 11/27/2007 7:33:15 PM | In my entire life I've never had one single male walk over to me in a crowd, at a bar, anywhere...and talk to me, ask me to dance, tell me there is toilet paper hanging out of the back of my pants....
nothing.
I'm not sure if thats because I'm the ugly chick or the beautiful chick or the blonde chick or the fat chick. Who knows.
Maybe its the 666 branded on my forehead?
lol | |

Posted: 11/27/2007 8:09:05 PM | If I meet a pretty woman and she has a friendly smile I will talk to her,she will let me know if the attraction is mutual.I've been judged everything from ugly as hell to so damn good looking to all in between.
Your gonna run from a one to a ten in front of the world,who cares? LOL | |

Posted: 11/27/2007 8:23:42 PM | Dang.... if I saw a girl with 666 branded on her forehead I'm definitely gonna be asking her to dance so I could get a better look at it! Heh! And it would sure as hell be a coversation starter... not that I'm endorsing anyone getting such a branding!
Friends don't let friends tattoo Satan's adress on their forehead.

Posted: 11/27/2007 8:35:19 PM | OP, no need to fret. I am home every freaking Saturday night, but I like it cuz I eat my chocolate ice cream, talk to my little internet friends on interest message boards, play with kitty, watch TV, just do whatever!
I never get asked out. If I'm so beautiful that it intimidates guys, oh well, they probably aren't man enough for me anyway. Or... I might just be damn ugly!
I don't care! When the time is right, it will happen! | |

Posted: 11/27/2007 9:15:55 PM | With the possible exception of one woman (who was a total, well you know what the word is) every woman here understands. I am almost 62, I live up on the Canadian border where there are absolutely no women my age that look like the OP or any of the ladies who have responded. These ladies (including the one I have singled out) are all great looking women. Great looking females who are now considered "Cougars" should rejoice in the fact that they still have "what it takes" to turn not only my head but everybodies head. I dont care if you are 18 or 88, if you got what it takes, go for it.
I LOVES YA! | |

Posted: 11/28/2007 11:20:51 AM | I seriously can't even believe this thread exists. And, yet, I got sucked into reading it...and find there is yet another thread called "looks are all that matter," or something like that. I remember reading something John Lennon said when everyone was picking on Yoko Ono, and saying how ugly she was. He could not understand it. First, and most importantly, to him she was beautiful, Secondly, it's just mean to say such things. He could not understand how grown adults could be so cruel....and we wonder why there are bullies on the playground.
I believe aging gracefully is a good idea as one can only fight gravity for so long, after that, physics wins out.
Cliche' perhaps, but true beauty does come from within. All it takes is a smile. It is like watching a rose bloom...all the beauty that was hidden in the folds comes shining through.
Peace.....Anna | |

Posted: 11/28/2007 6:37:03 PM | | Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I look for the inner beauty in a person. Don't judge a book by it's cover. I'm a plain jane,but I have inner beauty. That is what should really count. About pretty people having feeling,yes they do. That is why you should never judge a person by the way they look. | |

Posted: 11/28/2007 10:01:56 PM | | Some men will be afraid to approach an attractive woman because they think that she has a boyfriend/husband or that she wouldn't be interested in him. But in general, the most attractive women get the most attention whether it's on POF or at bars/clubs. | |

Not necessarily.
I have noticed it is the most SEXUALLY attractive women that get the most attention. Big breasts or braless with nipples showing. Short tight skirts. High come "f" me pumps....and flaunting. Same level of attraction in less than sexy clothes will still "sit it out". | |

Posted: 11/28/2007 11:00:49 PM | | I have noticed that it seems the women who complain about their beauty being unmet by enough attention usually are not so beautiful as they assume. I see women who walk around with a sneer. I wonder if they go home puzzled why nobody approached them. Mostly I hear women complain about being wanted by men they dislike, so what they are really saying is they are being overlooked by about one man a day, who drove by in is BMW and didn't stop his car in the middle of traffic, risk his life crossing lanes to ask her number. There simply are no beautiful, friendly women who smile invitingly at men, who want for attention. | |

nothing.
And then:
I have noticed it is the most SEXUALLY attractive women that get the most attention. Big breasts or braless with nipples showing. Short tight skirts. High come "f" me pumps....and flaunting. Same level of attraction in less than sexy clothes will still "sit it out".
Saying “my entire life” is a long time for guys to “never” have approached a woman, especially in a bar! LOL One has to wonder if there isn’t some black cloud or aura that hangs over someone where they’d “never” be approached---even in a bar! That I just do NOT understand at all---most likely something else is at work here................
The second part of this begs the question WHERE do such observations take place---bars, the mall, the office, PTA meetings? I don’t get this generalization unless all these sightings are where women would dress as described in order to draw attention or they’re “professional women” where it would be their calling card or “open for business” sign. I’ve seen women of every description with varying levels of physically attractiveness and just as varied states of dress that are either irresistible or completely repulsive simply due the nature and force of their personalities. It’s usually not very difficult to almost “see” a bad attitude—body language, lack of a smile, people who approach quickly leave---all indications they might be attractive but not very friendly or inviting. Perhaps through a few lines of conversation a venomous side can be seen which would explain those quick departures.
Being “sexy” or attractive to the initial view is certainly a powerful draw but as already known it accounts for virtually nothing once the conversation begins. Unless a person is so fixated upon their own looks and require something they believe to be equally attractive a great looking person who’s a drudge or nasty to the core won’t keep someone interested very long. Yes we all like to think of ourselves making love with or to a “vision” but don’t we typically go for the comfort factor instead of just the outside? I think we do---otherwise all these self-described beautiful women wouldn’t be alone, not for a moment, unless they wanted to be!
more often than not, us pretty girls sit at home...alone...on saturday nights
PS...I KNOW I'm hot too!
Two comments, that if sincere, show too many have an unrealistic view of just how hot or attractive they really are. Self delusion is great---sometimes it can pass a great self esteem---other times it’s just plain silly and facetious.
I don't go for anyone now, I've had the last nail hammered into my coffin when it comes to relationships (Thanks CheaterMan), and in ways I feel sad about that because I think I have a lot to offer to the 'right' man, but there has not been a 'right' man for me, so I'll just stay a half step away and watch couples that love each other and respect each other and will be together to the end and I'll be happy for them :)
This paragraph should have marked this entire original post as a pity thread and subject to deletion. Truthfully, this makes the entire OP sound quite pathetic and I’m not sure what the point was other than pretty people have feelings too? Once again this is just a rather sad story about love gone wrong but no matter how sad it’s still only between one woman, one man and how they did NOT have the same points of view. As much as this OP seems to want to downplay this “I’m attractive.........” thing it seems to be the forefront of her thoughts---how that should have almost guaranteed her Italian would NOT cheat on her?
Anyone allowing themselves to be discouraged to such a dramatic degree as this has way more problems than one cheating guy. I don’t think I need to repeat beauty is only skin deep AND beauty lies totally in the eyes of the beholder! | |

Posted: 11/29/2007 10:15:08 AM | | OP I have to say, I read your post, and I think I can see why this happened. You may be pretty on the outside, but you sure as h**l aren't pretty on the inside, and the 'Ugly' girl you say your guy dated, she was probably the opposite way round to you, so while he found you physically attractive, he found the other girl emotionally beautiful, but being maybe a bit insecure he didn't like having the other girl on his arm to show at parties because he was afraid of the comments he would get from the other men. So he kept the inwardly beautiful woman indoors, and took out the woman who was superficially beautiful, but not so beautiful on the inside. | |

An attractive woman will get plenty of attention regardless of how she dresses. Wearing revealing clothing might help a less attractive woman get more attention. | |

Posted: 11/29/2007 10:57:45 AM | I learned at a very young age that beautiful women need love too. I was a bit of an artist then and some say I just had a good eye for beauty whether it be in a women or sunset. I've been told I'm a above average looking person and one with a good heart. Problem was, when I was younger I was very shy. But I quickly learned that almost any question you have about a women can be answered in her eyes. So if some of you women don't get approached in a public place or gathering, try talking with your eyes. Guys have always had it the tougest by being the ones that have to approach or start conversations 90% of the time.  | |
