Answers to All Questions People Asking Me Every Now & Then
My near and dear ones always appreciated my looks, but every near and dear ones do that, so I didn't take that very seriously. It's not something I really think about – it's pretty normal to me that women or men on the street smile at me. But maybe that isn't normal at all, I wouldn't know. Here are few answers to those questions people asking me every now & then:
Is it true that people take you less seriously because they don't expect you to have brains?
Absolutely. When people strike up a conversation with me, they mostly talk about how beautiful I am, instead of asking about my interests. It's always the same – when you're good-looking, you're only judged on your appearance. People sometimes forget we have a personality lurking underneath.
Do your friends ever get jealous when you get all the attention?
Yes, I do get that impression sometimes. So I always feel guilty on nights out when people talk to me but ignore my friends. I do try to brush off guys who do that. What also happens is that when I tell my friends, they look great, they don't think I'm serious.
Have you ever noticed people getting nervous around you because of your looks?
I used to have a colleague who would suddenly start dropping things – plates, cups, pens – whenever she's around me.
Do you get a lot of free stuff?
No, unfortunately not. This probably sounds sexist, but I think women are generally better at flirting their way to free things.
Would you say you're very confident?
No, not really. I know I look hot, but it's not as if I just stare at myself all day. Some days, especially if I've had a bad night's sleep, I think I look like shit.
Are you afraid of losing your looks when you get older?
Yes, absolutely. When you're young and pretty, everything seems possible. As you get older, that definitely changes.
Have you ever taken advantage of the fact that you're attractive and beautiful?
Well, I can be quite charming if I want to get something done. However, personally, I never did anything sort of taking advantage of my good looks.
Do you get asked out on dates all the time?
Yes, quite often.
How amazing is it to be so attractive & beautiful?
It's not always fun – quite often people will just stare at me, making me extremely uncomfortable. And they love to assume that I'm really dumb.
Do random people ever come up to you just to give you a compliment?
Yeah, it does happen. I often get compliments on my facial features or my hair – which is really lovely, but it does get tiring. It would be great if people asked about my job or my interests sometimes.
Can you take anybody you like home?
I can't complain. Sometimes I just want sex, like everyone else. But at a certain point, random hook-ups start to feel a bit meaningless. And when people who I don't like come on to me, I have to turn them down. That's not fun.
