Why you should be happy with your unattractive man
For anyone who is still single: go look for a Mr. Not So Perfect. Yes, you heard us right. The ugly ducklings in the swan lake are the men you want.
Because, as science shows, we as women might as well choose an unattractive man. There are many reasons for this. Read and remember, for when you are once again searching in the pub for a Veuve Clicquot. Choose the Hema bubbles.
Unattractive men are therefore much more reliable pieces of meat than their smoother companions. They are less likely to lurk for the fun that can be experienced outside the door, and that is already pleasant in itself. He always does his best for you – even if he has already hooked you in. And that's not all.
Because those ducks are the keepers, girls. You can long for kisses from swans like Jim Bakkum, a Robbert Kemperman (if you don't know who this is; better not to), a Bradley Cooper. But the chance is high that men of this caliber like you for a moment. The true studs remain studs and then you know: eternal studs are flukes. Of course, we don't judge everyone the same, really not. But on average, the hotties cheat more often, have more short relationships in their lives than a real, long-lasting love, and think more of themselves. And, as experts from Florida State University say, relationships last longer if the woman is prettier than the man. If the man is prettier than the woman, the woman often feels inferior and it quickly leads to trouble.
This can also be well explained from psychology. Because those who have a lot of choices in the game of lust know that and behave accordingly. For you, another row of drooling girls. That's just how it is. Look, it can certainly go well, but yes, those who have a lot to choose from can automatically find it harder to choose. With prettier people, there is always doubt, more than with those who were not at the front when wild hair and a torso were handed out. The doubt that there is SOMETHING BETTER. That’s why they find it harder to commit and generally take less quickly to a serious relation relationship.
In short, look at the cuties who are actually so beautiful on the inside. You will definitely get more from that than from a picture to frame above your bed. Preferably a real sweetheart in your bed. But if Bradley asks you one day to have a cup of coffee, go ahead.
FACTS
A quarter of men think they are more attractive than their partner.
Men pay more attention to legs than to someone's breasts, research shows. Strange or crooked legs indicate to men a poor health, and they prefer not to reproduce. They are fine with breasts of all shapes and sizes.
The most important thing for women: trust.
