Women are held to entirely different standards, though (This is your friendly Captain Obvious, reminding you of... the obvious!) But **** it's a good attitude, if you can pull it off. :
You know, I almost mentioned something similar to the above - my best friend, that I hang with several nights a week, is VERY handsome. Gets hit on constantly. So even though I look okay, I'm still the ugly one, next to him, no matter what. And, to be honest, it gets frustrating....always being the 2nd choice. I do MUCH better, on the nights we don't hang out. I wouldn't trade his friendship for anything, but again, it's just frustrating, always being....their 2nd choice.

While I know it is different for women, for the first time in my life, I've beaten weight. I've always been 30-40 lbs overweight. And I've had new eating habits for a year now. And lost 45 lbs. I'm now 135(I'm 5'10"), and haven't deviated from that, for a month now. Shirts went from XL, to SMALL. No ****. I can even wear some extra smalls!!!

I can tell you that 45 lbs ago, I rarely got hit on. I get hit on a lot now....as long as my best friend isn't around!

But on the fukc it - I mean everything other than my weight. Although, when I hit 55 or so, and the face is starting to fall, run me through the plastic surgeon's office. Yank that **** back, Doc, and grab your stapler!!!
