Hindsight is so interesting... my bf is gorgeous. I have NEVER attracted a guy even remotely as good-looking as he is. I'm not a toad, and I clean up pretty good, but am strictly average with a capital A.
One time I said to him, "You are so good looking, I was surprised..." and then I stopped in midsentence because I realized that what I was about to say was a real put-down of ME, but he jumped right in and finished my sentence: "...surprised that I would notice you?" I wasn't sure what that meant at the time, and I'm still not sure.
But I have two degrees while he flunked out of college because of being a druggie, have $$$ in the bank while he is totally broke. Yeah, he be one o' dose Bad Boys-- something else I never had! (I thought all of them BB's were sex maniacs!)
Maybe being with a really good-looking guy is part of my "scoring" system. I get an "A" in "FINALLY attracted a cool guy to make up for being a socially inept nerd in high school." (I had ONE date in high school and college together!-- that's one date in eight years!)
