Every young man or woman imagines how his/her life partner should look like. As a tall ‘girl’, I always said to my friends during my school days that I’ll never go in for a guy who is taller than me, not that I’ll only go in for short guys but my main reason was/is, I prefer to either look at the guy eyeball to eyeball or down at (not on, there is a difference), but not the other way round. I have a friend who said she never likes good looking men because they are ALL players.

Everything has its advantages and disadvantages, and being handsome or beautiful cannot be divorced from the pros and cons of life.

A handsome guy or beautiful girl does not really need anyone to tell him/her that he/she is handsome or beautiful. I have a friend who I have always admired; very handsome, but unfortunately taller than me and recently got married, but a very good friend.

He always mention that sometimes it pays to be just the ‘ordinary’ guy because according to him, the disadvantages far outweigh the advantages of being handsome.

Disadvantage of being handsome according to my friend:

Gay guys think you’re a gay. He said gay men stare at handsome men the way men stare at beautiful women especially if you work around the city, Soho areas in Central London and it really is annoying and infuriating when they approach you.

To quote him (he spoke in Twi): “He annoyed me when he approached me and I turned to check if there was anything there to attract a man. I was really sad that day that someone could even think of sleeping with me. I just had to tell him that I’m very OK with a woman, charley, it was not easy.”

You tend to attract more women, but with the quantity come a drop in quality. You’ll run into superficial women with no substance while the ones with substance are not fazed or impressed by your looks. You also get some who never leave you alone even if you make it clear that you’re not interested. Some girls even tell friends that I’m dating them which is not even true.

Matured women in London will just not let you be as a handsome young man, especially the women who are either single or not living with their husbands.

The biggest problem is when you’re assumed to be a player. Women assume you’re a player for no reason. Because of this, there’re some girls he’d really want to date but they used that excuse to ‘bounce’ him. He refutes the allegation that ALL handsome men are players.

The girlfriend or wife is always jealous but do not like to show it. The issue of jealousy shows in their utterances and behaviour when going out alone.

BUT the only advantage of being handsome is you get a lot of admirers.

So guys, that are it, do you agree or do you have more to add? I think I need to start asking the beautiful women their experiences.
