So I've been thinking about how people assume that because you are good looking and have a good personality, you should have massive amounts of people all over you...in my case men. And thats really not the case. I wonder if others feel as I feel about the "situation." I always say looks can't get you everything. Sure a free drink here and there, maybe free admission to a club... but a decent conversation that doesn't end with "so can I get your number?" or "come home with me", seems far fetched.

Maybe I'm way too over critical of guys, or maybe the social places that I find myself in limit the pool of guys from which to meet; but regardless I just want to make the point that sometimes being attractive doesnt get you too far... not that I don't enjoy the looks that God and my parents blessed me with.

Putting it out there, dont just assume! and don't limit yourself from talking to a pretty girl or handsome guy because their looks intimidate you... you never know!


Its Friday! <3

Once again, great blog! I find myself coming here quite often! I guess I find your insights refreshing. It's like you said a good conversation (although in this case it would be a good read/blog) is hard to come by.

I wouldn't know anything about having a conversation with someone and being asked for my number, I can only assume its irritating. Nevertheless, you can't blame a guy for trying. After all a beautiful smart woman is hard to find.

To piggy back on that, you said that one shouldn't be afraid to talk to an attractive member of the opposite sex, however, that same skepticism that you exhibit is what keeps men/women at bay from approaching these fine specimens of our species. Perhaps these attractive individuals are predisposed to have that wall up.

And Yes I know that saying sometimes you have that wall up to see who is actually willing to teat it down. Despite that, these social conclaves of ours are not particularly conducive to open discussions of one's intentions and or motives for approaching the person.

Now, I see that I've rambled on enough! Kudos once again!

Wow! someone who reads my blog... def made my day, I love surprises. I'm glad you find me insightful, I just love to write... sometimes I don't make sense, but once the words are out of my head I can go ahead and move forward.

As far as guys approaching me and having a conversation, I dont mind it at all. But its irritating when they dont have the decency to speak to you first like a human, instead of coming at you like a piece of meat.

And I agree, I can speak for myself, when a guy talks to me I automatically assume is to get my number... I guess it's hard not to when thats what has happened in the past.
