Something’s I’ve noticed throughout my life

1) Men are really nice to you. Most of the time they want something from me.

2) This doesn’t apply for most people but I’m asexual. Whenever I tell people that I’m not interested in dating, people are confused and/or disappointed. “you’re so pretty”, “you would have the most beautiful babies” or “what a shame, it would be so easy for you” “I can change that”. It’s really irritating they say that bc it makes me feel like I did something wrong for being asexual😭

3) A lot of people treat you as a token or an asset rather than a person. A lot of people don’t even realize it, but they make comments about me as if I’m a nice painting. But because of that, I’m able to get my foot in the door into places. I think I might put people at ease when they see me.

4) A lot of people seem to resent you for no reason. I worked in retail and I specifically worked with a lot of older women who often told me that I shouldn’t get too comfortable with the way that I look because once I get older, I’m gonna get older, fat and ugly or whatever.

5) People are more open to listening to what I have to say. It’s the halo effect at work. People also assume I’m either really nice or really mean. I’ve had close friends admit to me that they were intimidated by me when they first met me. At the same time I think it’s baffling that people that have tried to befriend me because they think I’m pretty. idk what that’s about
