is it true that pretty people are more choosy ?

That is your experience with one "pretty person."
Maybe some discover more about themselves and the world because they have to work overtime to prove they are not just "pretty."
Maybe people do not fall at their feet, because of generalizations like these.

It is kind of ignorant to say that they are mostly boring.
It is like saying most Autistics wear diapers and rock in a corner.

It is almost true here, but I can only give loyalty to somone that I really like. A man who isn't in love will destined to cheat (!_!)

Exactly what I think.

A lot of people tell me I'm pretty, but I don't think it allows me to be more selective. If anything, it's a burden at times. Guys hardly ever initiate the first move, which is really tough when you don't have any social skills. On the few occasions when I did manage to get a date, the guys always told me they were either intimidated or just assumed I already had a boyfriend.

I don't know if I'm more picky. I guess I am, but in a weird way. I've never been attracted to the kind of guys normal women find attractive, like athletes or hollywood types. In fact, I can't name a single actor that I would find attractive enough to date. I prefer my guys to be more unique and edgy looking. I like guys who have longer hair, wear hippie type clothes, or have a couple piercings. I wish I could find more guys like that whre I live.

One can be TRULY picky though, and insist
on both. Danger is, it leads to loneliness,
but the waiting may be worthwhile. Looks
do last - what one is when you first meet
them remains emblazoned in your mind
forever, and tints all future views.

Pretty people are like everyone else: their choices of boyfriend/girlfriend depend on the selection available to them. And typically, most people of the opposite sex are attracted to the pretty person. So whether they're more choosy depends on the particular person, but they can afford to be more choosy.

I would rather give up on the looks than be lonely (but would rather be lonely than give up on personality). Then again, it is a purely theoretical decision.

Attractive people are to "pretty, " as people with Aspergerian traits are to "aspies?"

It seems that most people here do not like the labeling and assumptions that come with the label Aspie. That is what I read earlier on a thread.

So pretty much anyone that can be put in a label suffers the same kind of prejudgment.

I have a gorgeous friend that always dates guys that are not in her league and I think the main reason is so many guys are intimidated by her. I used to think that line was b/s. But after seeing her, I believe it to be true.

yes of course it is: do you think a supermodel would look at me twice, maybe if a drived a ferrari. How many people drive ferraris ?
If you were a supermodel, would you not raise your standards ? One things for sure, if you didnt youd get more.
Not rocket science is it ?

One last thing: all them pretty people, theyre all gonna die

All soldiers
They're all gonna die
And all the little babies
They're all gonna die
All the poets
And all the liars
And all you pretty people
You're all gonna die

When I was young, just about anything
would have done. Age and experience
have made me picky to the point of
it being impossible.

But, I can't settle for less than I had.

I'm very choosy but I dont really consider myself pretty even though some people think I am heh.

Even making friends for me is almost impossible. So I don't feel that an actual relationship would be worth the trouble unless it was a serious one, though in practice this preference makes no difference.

Pretty people may have a lrage sample to choose from, but this does not make them more choosy.

For example, I am very particulalr about what I would expect in a partner, but I am also an Al Capone look-a-alike (when he was younger) so I'm not exactly pretty.
Other factors may come into play such as charisma, physical stature, dress style and prowess however.

it does by definiton.
