[color=#990000][/color]s. This had been my major problem, even girls don't trust me..they do think I can't date them all alone without dating someone...one even says to me that even if I don't, ladies will come and do. |

kandiikane: This thing sef, ahh, the truth has been exaggerated abit. Beggars running up to you saying fine boy, fine boy? LoolI'm not kidding. My big bro gets the same treatment. I can't speak for others. And I feel the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages. In French, les avantages l'emportent de loin sur les inconvénients. I hate French. Only a lowlife would make up such lies. And I haven't even said anything yet, I've been in more awkward situations. Maybe it's just my luck. I make my own luck. |

This has nothing to do with female brain. That's nonsense. This has to do with general human behaviour. People complain but still continue to do what they do.Kandikanne that is textbook female behavior. Take it or leave it. |

pedestal82: I agree there is a downside to being good looking. Back inAnd u were jst eyein her frm a corner,u didnt chyk her and never tried to direct or advice her. Wat if that waz suppose to be my pharmacist wife...lol..jst kiddin. D truth is dat beautiful girls hv less number of female and more number male friends . Reason: they become jealous and feel she wil compete wit them for their boyfriends. Then fine dudes,usually hv many female and male friends. However,wat matters most is d persons character,financial status(present world's mentality) and BRAIN |

centje: centje: I couldnt find any.But lemmie try then. 1. You are in a hurry to get somewhere and a random person stops to say 'hi your r beautiful,I love your legs' Now the only inconvinience I see is to stop say THANK YOU and proceed.I go walking feeling like am on top of the world. It's not a disadvantage rather a compliment. 2. You are talking to somebody and you can clearly see there eyes are roaming and admiring. Makes you feel like you are talking to yourself.You almost smell lust and desire burning in them yet you are talking serious stuff. What to do? disrupt the stare by talking something nasty and spoiling the mood.It's funny cz I always end up laughing so hard since it was a deliberate move but the person may not even notice. 3. Mhhh what else? That of people thinking you are a dunderhead, happens when you open your mouth to speak. Thing is, know what to talk about,how to talk and with who. Choose subject to suit the audience and you will realise they will listen more than admire. Not the other way round. Problem with all these 'beautiful and mistaken people' is that beauty gets into their heads such that whenever they walk, they feel as though the whole world is watching.They become so conscious of sorroundings and worried about themselves. They walk 'expecting a word'. good or bad. If it fails to come they sulk,if it come they cry trouble.Just live life! I tire oh Have an open and positive attitude when compliments come ur way.You will be glad they do. |

@ topic spiritual issues most times, from what i've seen and heard.Not speaking from personal experience o- i have none in this aspect. besides, in parts of nigeria, being too fine is considered a bad thing. possibly because if you look oyiboish, maybe an oyibo or arab/tuareg played an away match somewhere along the line, and vamoosed? just guessing. |

kandiikane: This thing sef, ahh, the truth has been exaggerated abit. Beggars running up to you saying fine boy, fine boy? Loolpreach sistah! The way some peeps are making being good-looking seem like some kinda life sentence with hard labour is beyond me. If you think being good looking is a curse try life on the other side, where nobody wants to get to know you better at first sight, where snide remarks and mocking laughter are components of just another day in your life, you do not get toasted and if you're a guy, woe betide the day you walk up to a girl to chat her up, for you shall receive the embarrassment of your life (especially if you don't look like you're worth a million dollars). Those dudes complaining bout being too handsome need to let their self esteem meet up with their looks, some even sound suicidal on top sey dem too fine, ha! Na wa o. If Jim Iyke, Ramsey Noah, Mike Ezeuronye, Orlando Bloom, C. Ronaldo, Christian Bale et al have not died on top all their fine boy, why will you be the first? Abi fine boys never dey before dem born you? Btw, @kandii, i dey ok, especially because people don't stalk or harass me by the road, unlike what some people are facing. |
Re: The Disadvantages Of Being Good-Looking by kandiikane(m): 8:48pm On Aug 07, 2012 |
Abi oo. Infact, they should be thanking God every morning for blessing them with good looks. There is a very thin line between pretty and ugly and people are more likely to be born ugly than pretty. Thank your stars wella and stop complaining. 1 Like |

It's pretty easy. I wouldn't say there are many real disadvantages. The only thing is that sometimes interactions with women (of almost any age) become awkward unless the woman is bold and upfront about what she wants or unless she's happily married and has no problem with telling you that you're handsome as a general compliment because she's not trying to flirt. When a shyer single woman lets slip that look/stare that makes it obvious she's attracted to you, she starts acting a bit nervous and awkward toward you afterward. That can make it hard to have a real conversation. Besides that, there's nothing disadvantageous about it. |

make the most of your beauty while it lasts, so that when you hit 40 you won't be a bitter old thing. |

If beauty is in he eyes of beholder then good-looking is a relative term, not what you really think. What is good-looking? |

safarigirl: preach sistah! The way some peeps are making being good-looking seem like some kinda life sentence with hard labour is beyond me. If you think being good looking is a curse try life on the other side, where nobody wants to get to know you better at first sight, where snide remarks and mocking laughter are components of just another day in your life, you do not get toasted and if you're a guy, woe betide the day you walk up to a girl to chat her up, for you shall receive the embarrassment of your life (especially if you don't look like you're worth a million dollars). are you dreaming? the ugliest guys usually get the most beautiful women, so you need to check your facts. and ugly women generally tend to have less problems getting married and even in life in general, compared to the general average for drop dead beauties. overly handsome guys also tend to not be taken seriously by either sex because there's a perception they're mostly fops. pretty boy is not a compliment, which may surprise you. not trying to knock anybody, but your post is so ridiculous. 1 Like |

^ I don't know about all that... But yea like i said earlier, this thread is dumb. You guys must be living in an area were attractive people are extreamly uncommon. Were i am at there are good looking ppl everywhere, no one is making a big deal out of it and no one is complaining. |

Re: The Disadvantages Of Being Good-Looking by tpia5: 5:45am On Oct 24, 2012 |
so, how can good looking people stop offending others by their looks? good looking men especially might have a problem if they're not the flirty type and dont know what to do about all the girls flocking around them. sometimes you just have to be a grinch, i suppose. or just religious. i'm referring to sober people who happen to be good looking, not the bling blinging ones. |
