But back to the question, she is better off single anyway since divorce rates are so high. To be older, unmarried, and complaining about "not finding love" isn't as bad as those people who got burned badly when they thought hey had it but did not - a pyrrhic victory. The divorced single mom in her 40s is usually much worse off - especially if the father is a deadbeat dad.
I don’t know why she’s so opposed to marrying an older man. Maybe she feels a younger guy makes her look younger, too. Whatever. Age shouldn’t matter (no jailbait, though ).

People like you would be fresh meat here in NYC, I am strictly talking about models here in NYC. A lot of models here don't speak very good English just like Trump's wife. One girl I met, she had a nice smile spoke little English after 2 months I heard a director is divorcing his wife and marrying her. Nice opportunity to get a green card I suppose. Rich white guys like the Harvey Weinsteins use their workplaces as a dating service.

If beautiful women are intelligent they should be going for jobs that uses their intelligence instead they're all getting these low effort jobs at media and ad agencies looking for their next big break. Many are working side gigs being professional girlfriends to rich Wall Street bankers. It's a very common thing here for many girls that work as models and wannabee actresses.

A lot of men may find this woman attractive, but um, I highly doubt that it's her 'beauty' that is keeping her from finding love with a guy - I think it's her conceited and deluded attitude that she has about herself and about men her age.

We've all read posts on here from members who think they're not attractive enough to find someone to date and get into a relationship with - but, I've yet to read ANY posts on here from anyone stating that they're TOO attractive to find love!

Do you think 'super attractive' people have a tough time at dating and finding love like average or unattractive people do? Or do you think this woman and other people like her are full of baloney?
Actually, its the really physically attractive women who get bullied and ostracized the most - at any age...by other women. And men are usually so intimidated by very attractive women that few ever feel up to asking them out. So, they end up spending a lot of time alone. Same goes for highly intelligent women. If a woman is both, its a double whammy since you're not "allowed" to be both.

It does not mean they are conceited, it means that like any outliers in our society, they do not have it easy.

I tried explaining this on another thread (because it’s happened to me since I was a teen) and I was basically laughed at. It does happen, it’s real ... women can be terrible and men are often intimidated. But I don’t sweat it. I’m just me and that’s so much more than what I look like.

I understand if very physically attractive women actually do get bullied and banished by other women and if they are misunderstood and intimidate men and that this is why they 'don't have it easy'. That's fine. But just because those type of women don't have it easy, that doesn't mean they have to be conceited or arrogant about their looks - there IS such a thing as them being humble and modest!

Absolutely. The lady in this news article is just ridiculous. No one is too beautiful to find love. She looks like about a 7, but her personality makes her a solid 4. She sounds like she treats men terribly.

It’s hard for me to find sympathy for this person. Being a beautiful person makes dating so much easier for them than everyone else. I refuse to believe that someone can be “too beautiful” to find someone.

Exactly. Her looks aren’t the problem.
