She's no bargain!!

Quote From: cashmere

I have known quite a few gorgeous women who didn't easily get dates from men they were interested in.  One girl I used to go out with attracted every man in sight.  She was gorgeous!  Every guy at our office fell in love with her.  I took the time to get to know her and I realized that she was meeting the same types of men I met (drunks, losers, players, jerks, much older men, users, etc.).  The ONLY difference was she met many more men than I did.  She did not meet a lot of quality men just because she was GORGEOUS!  She had two failed marriages.  First husband was a drunk.  Second husband fell in love with someone else.  When I became friends with her she was dating a married man.  For 8 years she waited for him to leave his wife.  He never did.  But I can guarantee you that plenty of women were jealous of her.  I realized there was nothing to be jealous of.  So, we all need help in meeting someone.
Just the fact that she dated a married man for eight years shows what a flawed character she has. Maybe that had something to do with her failed relationships and not being able to meet a quality person.  Does she also have a mile-wide sense of entitlement that the world owes her something because of her looks?  Even the shallowest of men would probably get sick of that after a while.

The gorgeous women attract more men period:  drunks, losers, players, jerks etc. AND quality decent nice guys.  One gorgeous woman I know started wearing a wedding ring while single b/c so many clients hit on her at work, she had trouble getting her work done.  And she dated one abusive guy after another.  They need to be able to weed out the good guys from the bad guys, BUT all things being equal, a gorgeous woman will have an easier time attracting a nice guy than an average or below average looking woman.  Men tend to go for looks FIRST & then other attributes like humor, integrity.  If you don't have looks they find acceptable, you don't get your foot in the door to demonstrate your other fine qualities.
