Boys... the Hot Heartbreaker or Average Looking Lover

Ever wondered why those movies always start with the beautiful girl, confident as she may be, never doubting herself as she walks down the street? She looks fabulous, she looks happy, and she might be on her phone laughing. Why is it that those romantic comedies always start out this way?

Because they are about to crush your vision of beauty by entering a handsome man. Yep, insert tall, dark and handsome. Girl's naturally are attracted to beautiful girls. We are friends with those who look nice, and we watch lots and lots of movies about that really refreshing, kind of down to earth, but breath taking beauty. But, we are women... and naturally, the majority of us are attracted to that beautiful man. So insert really good looking guy, and that image of beauty is a lost thought as we focus on the guy. Also insert the great looking guy's naturally overconfident cocky self. Yet, we still fight for him, wanting him to change his ways so he can fall in love with that beautiful girl that he just heart broke. Yep. Men kind of suck. In real life too.

I am going to be honest, a lot of my friends are married. To decent looking guys. Not Clark Kent turns to Superman kind of guys, but just Clark looking guys. Good looks to their girls, but nothing so heartbreaking that they make every woman in a room turn. I think each of my friends has found the perfect guy for them. They may not be super models, or super tall. Super rich or super stable, but they are the perfect guy for my friends. Mostly, these are average guys, with some dashing pheromone that just attracted my friends like bees to flowers.

So here is the big kicker... why are all of the average guys married, while my very very good looking guy friends are not? It doesn't seem to be a problem for girls to get married, plain or perfect, my girlfriends all get married eventually. However, the guys they marry either compliment them or under shadow them. Never have my girlfriends been overshadowed by the pure good looks of their significant others. Is this a trend? Should I be looking for the not so perfect guy? Is the average joe going to be the perfect marriage material to me?

I am going to blunt, I have some very good looking male friends. Some of them, well, I would marry if it were determined by looks. Most of them are nearing 30 or already there... and yet none of them have married, and reality is, none of them are even close. Why are the most gorgeous looking guys I know, still single?

Probably because there is some tragic flaw to them. I am betting its their brains. Yep, lets be honest, these handsome, intelligent, seemingly emotionally stable guys have something wrong with them. They have to! Otherwise, why would they still be on the market? Maybe they are looking for the perfect match to their egos, but lets be honest, there is no perfect match to that maybe they have an ideal woman in their mind, well thats the reason, they will never find her. Maybe they really are mentally unstable and I just don't know it. Guys, if you are reading this, let me know, what is the real reason that y'all are unmarried, unattached and nearing 30 or over that hill?

Because honestly... I would date you. But really, something is obviously wrong with me considering that I am still single, while the majority of my friends are not, and I think I am pretty decent looking, qualified to get an MRS degree, and somewhat intelligent. Maybe my confidence in myself is the failed point in this. Yep, it must be confidence. By George, I figured it out, being confident screws you. Everyone wants someone who is helpless, someone you can better, someone you can sort of fix. Right? Sigh, I obviously have no answers since I am still single.

Average Joes.... go along your happy ways with my seemingly gorgeous friends. Hot Heartbreakers... looks like you're stuck in a world of dashingly good looking men without eternal companions, living next door to those overly confident single female friends who you should probably be married to. I think the problem is neither one of you are seeing the bigger picture of perfection that you should probably be filling together.
