It may seem that being attractive takes your life to a whole new level: there is no end to admirers, it is easier to find a job by charming the entire HR department with just your appearance, and there are no problems with self-confidence. But in reality, everything is not so rosy.
Beauty scares off admirers
Men find it much easier to talk to a pretty “girl next door” than to a stunning supermodel: it seems that they are simply out of their league. Potential admirers are driven by the fear of being rejected if they show sympathy for a “beauty queen”, which hurts their self-esteem. The situation is similar with girls, the situation is further aggravated by the popular belief that a man should take the initiative. You shouldn’t think that a guy with a model appearance needs someone prettier. Appearance is not the only criterion for choosing, so get rid of your prejudices. Not only beautiful people can refuse to communicate.
Relationships are hindered by the image of heartthrobs
Relationships for attractive people are often hindered by stereotypes: they are considered frivolous, they have had many partners, and it is allegedly difficult to keep them. In fact, any person, regardless of appearance, needs confidence in the future. A spectacular guy or girl does not dream of an endless number of sexual contacts without obligations. On the contrary, stereotypes make them more vulnerable.
Everyone thinks they are busy
Most people find it hard to believe that an attractive person can be single. So guys and girls often don’t even think about getting closer to the object of their affection. Decent people have a principle of not getting involved in other people’s relationships. This is a commendable position, but a cautious interest in the marital status of a woman or a man will not ruin someone else’s romance. It’s better to know for sure than to guess. Plus, you won’t have to take rejection personally if your chosen one is not free.
Trust issues
Attractive people worry about being used. No one wants to be a one-night stand, so they have to be more selective, and it becomes harder to trust new people. And they are often judged by their “cover,” with little interest in their inner world. Even friendships can become a problem in this case — if paranoia takes over and it seems like no one can understand what’s inside.
They are considered snobs
Since beauties and handsome men are destined to attract attention, increased attention is guaranteed in almost any situation. As an example, if you sit in the far corner at a party, you will not escape the label of a snob. No one will believe that a handsome person can be shy or simply tired. External perfection is associated with arrogance in others and makes them attribute not the best qualities to attractive people.
