StillOfTheNight: More than once I been ditched at a party or a bar by friends because I never fit in with or never looked good enough.

Trust me on this one, it really is a two way standard.


so it's clear you are hanging around with the shallow peopleconversing

kittykawaii:

I've never been successful in dating. I've had just ONE man approach me in my life for a date. He later became my childrens father and is now my ex.



I think you HAVE BEEN very successful, I even couldn't attract "THAT ONE". laugh

I think beauty is a gift of god or nature (whatever your beliefs are) and it's value can't be minimised just because some people are not beatful and they need to find their place in this life, too. Look at the percentage of votes! Beauty is important and it makes things easier, especially when dating is concerned.

But, there is something else that I've noticed especially with beautiful women - they are somehow arrogant, not pleasant to speak to, they kind of build some wall of repulsion around themselves. When I try to explain it to myself I think that maybe they don't like the way other people (mostly men) treat them - just as nice things without mind, and it must be unpleasant, don't you think so?

JAN_is: Maybe that has a lot to do with the fact that women in general are not so obsessed with looks and place more importance on other things than a lot of men do.

We are much more forgiving and willing to climb the "ugly" tree.


You should tell that to all the women I've ever met blues

I wouldn't pay successful. If it weren't for my children I would feel very unfortunate for even having met him. The only good part of that chapter in my life are my two gorgeous children. His family are quite good to me too, even though he is a deadbeat or doesn't pay child support or see the kids.

I too have noticed woman who know they are beautiful are somewhat arrogant. But from what I've seen, it doesn't matter if they lack depth or personality, the man just wants someone good looking to be on his arm. It doesn't really matter if she's as dumb as a doornail. As long as she makes him look good, for the guy thats all that matters. And I guess because I'm unable to give that to a guy, i'm not dating material?
I mean who knows. I've given up on men anyways.

|I hope you don't do that. There are good men out there. If you are a stay at home mom, you probably are not getting a chance to meet many guys, good or bad. I would look into some ways to meet and socialize with more people, in general, not just guys. I believe if you get to know someone as a friend first, and then see if it goes to romance later, that is the best. You get to know someone's character before the romantic stuff clouds the issue.

Kitty...I dont know how old your kids are but remember things will change as they get older...as for "dateable" I think your cute as a bug. Being a good mom is a positive quality to a good man. Hang in there sweetie hug

BlainX: They have to have better luck than me?


I get lots of mail saying I am beautiful...I think perhaps I am attractive....but it definately not easier to meet men....I sometimes think its harder...I was recently told by a close male friend...that men are scared to approach me, for fear of rejection!!! As I am not the type to make the first approach....it may be impossible to meet someone then! More likely to happen when I least expect it maybe...and not looking to hard.

And to all the beautiful women on here.....good luck wine

SUNSHINEB0Y: Hi Kitty, I hope you won't mind me saying so but I think your negative attitude would do much more to put men off than either the way you look or the fact that you have kids, you have a lot to be positive about!! you are young and gorgeous and I don't think having kids would put off the right man either, my wife had 4 when we met and we had 25 good years together before she passed away.
So chin up and count your blessings, smile and the right guy will notice you


I've always wondered about this positive and negative thing... like which came first the chicken or the egg? confused

Besides I did think it was a British trait not an Irish one to always laugh it off when things get real... and down another pint or two? Always thought there were plenty of sad ballads in Ireland?

Just an observation. cowboy

People can be very picky.

I think most people just want a nice person with a good personality and someone they are attracted to, which does not mean they have to be one of the beautiful people.

Nahhh... I think that is an urban legend. I know many beautiful who run miserable lives.
I think there must be a distinction between teenagers, school time and all that on one side and real life on the other side. I know many "ugly" (according to the particular classification depending on cultures and countries) who have content and solid lives with partners beyond succesful dating careers and childish obsession for beauty.

I agree. Initial attraction may depend on appearance, but after that, it has not got much to do with a successful and happy life.

Ccincy: Are you speaking about looks or personality?

Someone can be beautiful and have a rotten personality.
thumbs up

looks don't mean everything, I know beautiful people that have a hard time finding dates cause they only notice the "looks" of a person instead of spending time knowing one to see that at the end outside beauty is not eternal but personality is, its just my opiniondunno

Dating and relating is not easy no matter what you look like.
You can be the best looking thing around and still get no dates, it depends on your personality and attitude how far you get in life.
