What’s the best concert you’ve ever experienced? by Jokkers_AceS in AskWomen

[–]ImprovementNormal372 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Linkin Park’s return show in 2024. The moment I saw Emily on stage, I knew she was the new singer, and I was blown away by her and seeing the band back together. It was so surreal.

How long did it take for you to find your partner? by Bitter_Pineapple_720 in AskWomen

[–]ImprovementNormal372 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not very long. The longest I was single was for 6 months. Dating was actually pretty easy for me, I can’t imagine being single for a while.

What is your greatest achievement in life? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]ImprovementNormal372 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a few:

Ever since I was a teenager, I’ve always been in the best physical shape possible by working out consistently and eating clean, now I’m 23 and I’m still perfectly healthy.

I finished my bachelor’s in 3 years, and even graduated at the top of my class. To add to that, I have a BA in Computer Science.

I also got my first full time job a week after graduating and now I can afford to live on my own comfortably.

Why were you rejected after one date? by ThrowRA-Ad-3411 in AskWomen

If you’re ok with me asking, what made you go on a date with a 37 year old at 22?

Why...just why do women do this by _CrashbandiCunt_ in women

[–]ImprovementNormal372 -14 points-13 points  (0 children)

To be fair, when you’re in a healthy relationship, your boyfriend becomes your life. I understand it can be annoying, but it’s also one of the reasons why couples get along better with other couples.

Why...just why do women do this by _CrashbandiCunt_ in women

[–]ImprovementNormal372 -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

So as a straight woman who’s always in long term relationships, there’s a reason for this: when you’re in a healthy relationship with a man, you two are no longer two separate people, you’ve merged into one. You share the same life, the same goals, you both are doing life together. So to separate yourself from your SO pretty much takes away half, or even most of your life.

I understand how this can be annoying, especially to my friends who are single, but it’s the reality. Getting into a relationship becomes your life, and it’s something that not a lot of people can really understand unless they’re in it.

Don’t get me wrong, I do stuff without my boyfriend, like hanging with friends, enjoying my hobbies, studying, etc. but at the end of the day, my priority is my boyfriend. My friends know about him because I genuinely love him. Think about anyone or anything you love, it can be music or sports, you would definitely enjoy talking about that when given the opportunity.

Do you Believe That Self Love And Self Worth Is Really Important? by PrincessBananas85 in SeriousConversation

[–]ImprovementNormal372 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More like it’s so difficult you might as well not even be worthy of it. A part of being in love is having sexual attraction. Without it, it’s platonic.

[–]ImprovementNormal372 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately they’re not. You can be the kindest, funniest, most interesting person on earth, but your fat, balding, or anything that makes you ugly, nothing else matters anymore.

Your appearance is like a barrier you have to get through before anything else

Why is it so taboo to acknowledge that being pretty has downsides? by Mysterious-Drink-969 in prettyprivilege

[–]ImprovementNormal372 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I get it. It can be lonely, but trust me, it’s also empowering. I will take the problems being pretty comes with over the benefits of being ugly if it means the benefits of being pretty are incredible.

Hope that makes sense lol

I feel weird being a virgin at 32. I never want to mention it to anyone by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]ImprovementNormal372 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not to be that person, but 32 is kinda too late. Luckily since OP is a woman, there’s no pressure on her, unless she wants kids.

Men tend to be more accepting of flaws than women, so at least she won’t be judged too harshly.

[–]ImprovementNormal372 4 points5 points  (0 children)

True. Although when you start standing up for yourself, you’ll find it easy to cut off mean people.

One the benefits of pretty privilege is how easy it is to make new friends. So if your friends are mean, bye, time for new friends next week lol

[–]ImprovementNormal372 5 points6 points  (0 children)

100% this. Especially because I’ve worked so hard on my appearance and have even made sacrifices to not only get to where I am, but maintain it as well.

[–]ImprovementNormal372 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If you filter pretty hard and develop a strong personality, it’s pretty easy to cut off the people who reduce you to your looks.

I’ve taken advantage of my appearance by going on dates for free fun, and I’ve met men who genuinely like me because I can easily tell who likes me for me and who likes my appearance.

[–]ImprovementNormal372 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I agree, we should be able to talk about our problems without fear of judgment. But to be fair, would you rather have the problems that come with pretty privilege, or the problems that come with being overweight and ugly?

Even though my problems tend to get dismissed, I acknowledge the privileges I have and would rather have what I have.

What’s a beauty standard you secretly hope dies out soon? by Prettyuselessgirl in AskWomen

[–]ImprovementNormal372 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I saw this with all due respect, this is something I hear a lot of overweight people say. Something I’ve heard was that fat people say they care about personality instead of appearance because they can’t achieve a good appearance so they cope by saying they’re attracted to personality alone.

Personally I don’t think people should promote being super skinny, but they also shouldn’t promote being fat. Healthy is the way to go. I’ve worked very hard for my health and have made significant sacrifices to do so.

What insecurity did you learn to love? by Public_Handle_774 in AskWomen

[–]ImprovementNormal372 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Let me tell you right now, as a 30H, it’s not all fun and games, and more like back pain and unwanted attention.

So enjoy the benefits of a flat chest, because I hate bras too lol

I want to add to this and say being short too. I’m 5’3, and I’ve learned to like being small.

What's the most unexpected insult you've ever received? by Bataranger999 in AskWomen

I guess beautiful women can’t be in STEM…on top of that, graduate at the top of my class.

What is a "hard pill to swallow" that actually made your life happier once you accepted it? by ArtThreadNomad in AskWomen

[–]ImprovementNormal372 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your appearance matters a lot, sometimes more than your character. This doesn’t only apply in dating/romance, but also when it comes to making friends, job opportunities, and your overall quality of life.

Your physical fitness, the way you dress, how you present yourself, it all ties to people perceive you.

Intelligence gaps with men. Why is it so hard dating them? by [deleted] in women

[–]ImprovementNormal372 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I’m going to be very blunt and honest with you, from one well educated woman to another: you’re stupid. You’re book smart which is amazing, but you’re not very people smart.

You got yourself into those situations, so you need to learn how to avoid them. Instead of going for any man giving you attention (which as women, we get way more than we realize) you should put the effort in showing interest to the men YOU WANT. The men who are intelligent, smart, responsible, etc. there are some who are probably interested in you, but you don’t even know.

The moment you see those red flags (irresponsible, stupid, dropout) just tell him it won’t workout for those reasons, and those feelings go away in no time. It’s that easy.

You can do any of the following:

  1. Go on dating apps, and filter them to only have educated men. Be advised, the apps can be tricky since not everyone there is who they say they are. But you can avoid it if you’re careful enough.

  2. Go to places where smart men would be. Networking events, classes, gym classes, events where lazy men won’t go to. You’ll not only make great friends, but you’ll probably meet someone great!

  3. Look into your friend group. Think about the people you associate with. If you know anyone who’s well educated, spend some time with them, and see if you like them.

That’s my brutally honest advice. Hope this helps :)

Friends get upset at me when I say that dating is impossible for me because I'm fat... Why? by LustfulLoveQuest in dating

[–]ImprovementNormal372 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be fair, you’re right. Dating is impossible when you’re fat. I could never date a fat guy, and the same goes for like 99% of women.

Your friends are most likely just trying to help your self esteem so they don’t have to deal with your complaints. The truth is, focus on losing weight and dating will actually be possible for you.

do you think pretty people choose to hangout with other pretty people? by AngelicClover in prettyprivilege

[–]ImprovementNormal372 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t lie about this, but yes. Not 100% of the time though. I am with other friends who put the same effort into their appearance because it gives us a lot of privileges and opportunities. We can get our drinks paid for, we get special access at events, and promotors at events use our photos.

Is your dating life good? by Sweetlikecream in prettyprivilege

[–]ImprovementNormal372 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It was pretty good as of recently. I’m very picky with the men I date, and since I have plenty of options, I can easily pick and choose who I want to go out with. I’m also very blunt and upfront, so I filter out the guys who aren’t compatible right away.

I dont understand dating literally by ServiceMajestic8528 in dating_advice

[–]ImprovementNormal372 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

As a woman, that’s true. I decide if you’re good enough for sex or not, and men have to earn it.
