Yeah,when you think you have it all,that is when you are well positioned for a sucker punch. You hardly make plans. Arrogance is a sin. |

the writer is making a serious point for the goodlooking guys. All my life, tho just in my last teenage (i mean ryt from primary skul) i have never been the first mover nor tried to talk 2 a girl first cos they are always naturally around. All i just do is wait for them to initiate convoz and i flow sharply with good humour. This has made me a proud and arrogant dude as my virtually ex-girlfriend (just one of those beautiful girls who come around) says most times cos wen we have little misunderstanding i always wait for her to come first. Through secondary school same chain reaction took place tho i ddnt knw how to take care of myself well then. Now in the university, i had to run back into fellowship to shield myself and to concentrate on my books well (doz uni girls fit spoil ur life) as in my first year a pretty lady(dt big boys chased) about 3years older disvirgined me. Even the so called fellowship girls get eyes too. Moral of it all is dat the self pride has made me a big time slacker as my friends call me coz i lack the necessary confidence to even approach the also very pretty damsels (they are also non-initiators) even if we are making eye contacts. I would jst walk away with my heart in my mouth. Since the poster has rightly analysed this, i fink i would start building confidence preparing 4 lyf after uni so i dnt lose a very pretty damsel dt could be a wify. 2 Likes |

Its not only good looks that counts but fitness and freshness. Some goodlooking guys are malnourished and it shows on them. You also need to have class and be a good communicator. Don't depend on your looks alone cos that's not all a girl looks for. 2 Likes |

When I was in High School (one of the most popular private ones in Lagos)the boys never really liked me, but I was always escorted by about 6 hot chicks and when I wanted to direct a school drama to contest for the Lagos Arts Festival, only four boys from my school (GREGS) registered while 22 girls came from our sister school (Holy Child). Even till date, both younger and older women are my best friends and I have no apologies or regrets. Anyway only girls and ladies inspire me. |

Seriously, being handsome can be a disadvantage. 1. Girls see u as a play boy. it took d grace of God to convince my wife I wasnt a playboy, that i wanted her for keeps. My wife likes to flaunt me to her friends which can be sometimes embarrassing (and annoying). 2. People see u as arogant, so i go out of my way to smile and be friendly. I most times greet people first and try to make them comfortable around me. 3. Looks can open doors for u but will not prove d quality of who u are. I was employed at my present jobs coz of my looks but from past experience, i had to quickly prove myself that i had what it took for d job and my employers were quite impressed. 4. it can be quite embarrassing, eg when you are nominated as the most handsome man in the office (even when there were younger finer men). 5. It could also attract the wrong people (especially girls) around you coz they want to be seen with u. People sometime take advantage of u. 6. There is pressure on u to date a girl who is equally fine coz an average girl is not good enough for u. 7. U cant stand or walk down d road side or busstop for long coz people keep steering at u. 8. when u tell a girl excuse me, she thinks u want to toast her and she puts her guard on. I also take advantage of it when i discovered people like to listen and be around me. during my service year i got involved with HIV campaign and preaching d gospel so i could reach out to lots of youths. it really paid off coz it gave me oppotunity to work and travel with UNICEF and NGOs. I do a lot of mentoring and counselling to youths, teens and young couples who want to marry. So many advantages and disadvantages but I thank God for making me the way I am. Looks can open doors but what happens when u get in has a lot to do with ur personality and ur brains. So my advice, develop urself to the greatest height. Ur looks will be an added advantage. 2 Likes |

I can relate with OP's experiences though I'$ not super handsome but a few girls told me I'm cute. Life can really get boring if a guy is too handsome because the arrogance and Ego can become an issue. |

adulthood: Life as a good-looking guy is far different from what the average guy/ugly guys go through. No offense but for handsome guys the game is different. They usually have no idea on how to woo a woman, because all their lives they never had to make an effort to get girls to flirt with them. When in a social gathering, the girls would always treat them differently. Every girl will always be too nice to them or always flirt with them, making them the center of attention wherever they go. Life can be frustrating, as some guys may start disliking them for the fact that every girl always wanna be around them. |

Looks without personality means nothing. Met this dude, very handsome but the guy was so duuuuuuuull! Had to pass him off to a friend for a one night stand. Abeg, personality, personality, personality is what women want. [size=3pt]well, with a face I can proudly show off[/size] |

OP must be one pathetic fellow, I am good looking yet confident,skilled in wooing babes and seductive in laying them. I wait for no babe to woo or talk to me as you can wait forever due to the fact African culture will never allow a babe to walk up to you free to pour out her heart to you,I accost every round big a$s I come across. |

adulthood: I understand the logic, Still think your generalization is too far. What of people who can't be bothered with such trivial things, handsome or not? Surely they can't fall under your group of "mean, selfish and delicate, conceited, selfish, intolerant, proud, and arrogant"? You paint beauty/handsome as something evil to the point of downplaying yourself to associate with girls (since that's we're talking about). When did we guys start taking responsibility for a girl's insecurities? I've never seen a girl downplay herself in any matter for a guy, so the whole notion feels contrived. If people think you're too good, that's their problem, and shouldn't now be yours. Your parents kicked in some good chromosones for you to turn out how you are. I don't think you should let that fallow because of what other people think. |
