I agree with Annamaria...the term "pretty" is empty. I like beautiful or beauty better.<br /><br />I've met some beautiful women from the outside but their energy and once they opened their mouth ruined it. I would love to see a pic of dude!

You should be too busy wishing your friends well and wanting nothing but the best for them to be jealous of them. If you're jealous of your friends, that means you feel there's something in your life that's lacking. A pang of envy every now and then might be natural, but jealousy? No.Brookehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02584160320846679744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4984100112542285026.post-88872295434528944742011-05-25T16:48:14.730-04:002011-05-25T16:48:14.730-04:00@Brooke,

They quickly backpedal and let me know they didn't mean it "that way." It happens a little less now, but that dosen't mean the thoughts don't still linger. But I don't worry about that and I believe that all of my friends love me. That's all I ask for.Brookehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02584160320846679744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4984100112542285026.post-90119302914837987122011-05-25T16:25:35.450-04:002011-05-25T16:25:35.450-04:00Brooke anyone giving you that backhanded ass comme...Brooke anyone giving you that backhanded ass comment will get tased...

I wish people would let me take their picture sometimes. There's a guy I want you all to see that wears bedazzled jeans everyday and has pink hair. Hilarious!<br /><br />But to answer your question: I honestly don’t know where I fall in when it comes to how I might be perceived. I don’t compare myself to my friends because I’m not in competition with them. I see beauty in all of my friends…and for different reasons. I can say that I think one friend has a gorgeous smile, the other has great hair, one has amazing skin or eyes. There isn’t one standard to judge them by. I don’t compare their hair to mine, their skin to mine, their eyes to mine. I think we all have our own beauty, and no one outshines the other.<br /><br />Now, that being said, I don’t know if they feel the same about me. I hope they do, but you can’t really know. I’ve had friends give me a few backhanded comments, like “why do they like YOU?” or “How did you get HIM?” I’m not the thinnest of my friends, so maybe to them I’m the fat friend I don’t have long hair or maybe a certain look, so maybe they think I’m the “cute” friend, but maybe not the “beautiful” one. Who knows… I can’t speak for them. But if they’re judging me as a total package, rather than on just looks, I’ll take that too. I think my package is prettier than anything I can show on the outside…and so I’d prefer that.Brookehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02584160320846679744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4984100112542285026.post-69560535562501732272011-05-25T15:57:25.390-04:002011-05-25T15:57:25.390-04:00Courtney, sounds like you trying to start somethin...Courtney, sounds like you trying to start something with Brooke!

Where do you live that you see all these...@Brooke,<br /><br />Where do you live that you see all these crazy people on th train!? LOL!<br /><br />The term "pretty" is relative, but I DO think women judge their female friends incorrectly. Either we think they're beautiful when they really aren't, or we think they're ugly based on our OWN perspective and she ends up with all the guys. We might be loking at her face, or how much she weighs, and dudes are like "she has a slammin body!" or a sexy walk. When I look at some of the women my guy friends lust over, I can't understand it...but they see what we don't. <br /><br />Brooke, since you have pretty friends, would you say that they think you're pretty, or would you say they might consider you the "ugly" friend? Clearly you're not ugly, but even if we don't have "ugly" friends, we have friends that we think we're attractive than. You said you think all your friends are pretty, so where do you fall in with them? <br /><br />Just curious...Courtneynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4984100112542285026.post-48220674153824296132011-05-25T14:43:37.865-04:002011-05-25T14:43:37.865-04:00@ Annamaria

I dont' know if y'all are blind or like Brokoe adn Toney said, you base attractiveness on the total package, nto just looks. <br /><br />While I think it's great that you all can judge a person for who they are on the inside, let's not get it twisted. All your girls ain't pretty...and YALL KNOW IT! You just wont' say it. <br /><br />Brooke, I've seen pics of some of your friends, and I must say, they are all pretty for the most part. I do think some pretty women subconsciously surround themselves with other pretty women because they like to appreciate them too. But I also know some very INSECURE STUNNINIG women who purposely keep busted women around them so that no one outshines them. Sadly, beautiful women are some of the most insecure people on earth.The Cable Guynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4984100112542285026.post-32356201645290915512011-05-25T14:37:31.376-04:002011-05-25T14:37:31.376-04:00Now that I think of it my wife did have one pretty...Now that I think of it my wife did have one pretty friend....beautiful actually, and as soon as I mentioned that she got voted da fuck off da island!

I am brutally honest when it comes to that type of thing.. I have seen them most ugly women who think that the world needs to bow down to their beauty and a standing ovation is needed when they walk in to a room… and I stand absolutely in shock.. And I have male friends who are like brothers that would tell me that a female is soooo fine blah , blah, blah , and then I see her , and I’m like okay.. “ That’s what you’re talking about”???? But at the end of the day as long as she’s good to my friend is what important to me… And I’m not hater by no means , I give props when props are do, but I don’t fall for anything.lol. I have never been able to make since of it myself… But the only thing I can come up with that is “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder”…. At least that what they say… lol<br />Society has been formed to be so superficial.. It’s sad… And that is right all the pretty girls are not married. Look at Halle Berry. Shes Gorgeous and she’s not married, Look at Eva Longoria was married and not anymore and shes beautiful... and she’s not married.. And even if they are married are they happy??? That dudes blog is stupid… and Annamaria is right he probably is fat, old and PASTY!!!! LOL<br /><br />@ Annamaria<br />LOL You said “Pasty”!!!

However, I think most pretty people hang out with pretty people, cuz they wanna keep their enemies closer :)<br /><br />However, I have had some friends who ASSUMED they were the pretty friend, only to be dumbfounded when their fridns get more polay than them. Like you said, what women find attractive is WAY different than what men find attractive, and they can't figure out for the life of them why their "ugly" friend or "fat" friend gets the guy and their skinny, pretty asses are home alone.
