I'll be honest. Guilty of all of the above and more. There is nothing like walking into a room full of people with some tall and thin blonde bombshell who turns heads to make you feel like chopped liver, even if you're ok attractive yourself. I doubt the posters above are really thinking this answer through, but JMHO.
]Have you found yourself intimidated by your friends/ co-workers good looks?
No -- jealousy is a meaningless emotion, for me
Live and let live Super-attractive ppl have their obvious advantages. So do I, in my own unique way. It all balances out, in the end
Not everyone can be a Grace Kelly or a Brad Pitt...just as not everyone can be an Isaac Newton or an Albert Einstein. At the same time, everyone has their own individual things and qualities, that they are innately good at

I thought it through in about 10 seconds when I thought of my co-workers and friends.
I don't have many co-workers, but there isn't a single one of them that can intimidate me. They're either much older than I am, dumb as rocks, or larger than I. Intimidation factor? -10.
My friends? I would consider a few of my friends attractive, but of those friends, 2 are married and the other is still a bitter soul over what his ex-fiancee did to him. He, right now, is extremely ugly on the inside and has a lot of work to do to himself. But physically he is not a bad looking guy. Intimidation factor? 0.
So, no, I'm thinking this through, it was just an easy task for me.

OK, what if you walked into a club with your friend of your age Mr Tall, Dark, and Handsome who scored everytime and the ladies were all over him and you were sipping a drink alone at the bar and no one paid attention to you?
Still going to say you wouldn't have a slight tinge of why him and why not me? Still say his good looks compared to yours (which for all I know you are tall, dark and handsom) wouldn't be slightly intimadating?
