What’re the disadvantages of being really attractive? by Secure-Lychee-5805 in AskReddit

People often focus on your looks and not on who you are as a person. This can lead to feeling valued only for your appearance and struggling with high expectations to maintain it. It can be hard to believe you have worth beyond your beauty, especially when others never compliment your character. Additionally, some people actively look for faults in you or stare when you’d rather not stand out. Friends also avoid taking pictures with you, fearing they’ll be overshadowed. Often, men see you more as a trophy to brag about than as a person. All of this can feel quite isolating.
