To wonder how anyone can be this vain?

🤣🤣😂😂😂

Or is she just deluded?

'I am soooooooo beautiful, and perfect, and hot, and no man I have ever met is good enough for me. All the male friends of my kids fancy me, I have had men from abroad saying if they lived closer they would date me, I could get a rich man if I wanted one, I look half my age, yada yada yada.'

What on earth is going on in this woman's head? I mean, it's ok to be confident and assertive and so on, but this is just too over-the-top!...

Whatever you think about this, it will give you a good laugh!

Too vain and self obsessed to be lovable, is more like it.

Puffpaw · 17/10/2017 13:02

She is a wannabe actress and model, this is just controversy for publicity. She doesn't mean it, it's the brick strategy!

sukitea · 17/10/2017 13:02

Poor thing.

steppemum · 17/10/2017 13:04

Makes me glad I am fairly plain and my beloved dh is therefore good enough for me.

Oh I love this!
yes, that is me, neither of us are anything to look at, but we are the nicest people you could ever meet....

gunsandbanjos · 17/10/2017 13:05

She looks ok for her age, but I’d certainly have put her at at least 40. I’m 35 and she doesn’t look younger than me.

whattheactualflump · 17/10/2017 13:06

IF that was true all the Victoria’s Secret models would be single...

This ^^. Not is it cringetastic, she clearly has issues. Nothing anyone says is going to make her realise that her arrogance, delusion (especially about the age she looks!) and total lack of humility will be what is putting people off!

whattheactualflump · 17/10/2017 13:06

'not only is it..'. Can't type today..

HopefulHamster · 17/10/2017 13:09

I can see what she said about online dating being true though.

She looks reasonably/normally attractive and thus gets 20-somethings messaging her who just want sex.

Men her own age are similarly messaging her for photos and 'fun' while not taking any care of themselves.

from what I've heard this is true right? 40-something men doing OLD never actually want 40-something women with children/baggage.

Jaxhog · 17/10/2017 13:15

She doesn't look 22!! I feel sorry for her children tbh. Any DD will have a major complex trying to live up to her egotistical mummy.

LOL, not just me then, who thinks she is deluded!!!

Yeah I would say late 30's too, but she does NOT look 21/22. No way!

She has a nice smile (as someone said earlier,) but she is decidedly average looking.

Why is it that these people who come out in public with 'I am so attractive, it's a curse!' bullshit, are never ever great looking? I mean, Samantha Brick is not - and never was - pretty.

She's deluded and average looking

Telstar99 · 17/10/2017 13:22

THIS is the woman I am on about in the OP. She defo looks around 40. Not 21/22!

I would rate her as a 6 out of 10.

BastardGoDarkly · 17/10/2017 13:23

God, her poor kids

whiskyowl · 17/10/2017 13:24

I do think she's really beautiful and definitely doesn't look 44. I think she makes a good point about the way she's being objectified by men of different ages and that there's no reason why she should settle for just any old bloke because she's in her 40s. She's also pulled off a PR coup here for her Youtube channel - you guys are all talking about her!

BrieAndChilli · 17/10/2017 13:24

She’s attractive but not drop dead gorgeous, BUT beauty is in the eye of the beholder so there will be some men out there who think she is a 10 and others who think she is a 1, in the same way all of our DHs think we are all beautiful!!
Nothing is less attractive than someone who thinks they are too good for everyone else.

Hippee · 17/10/2017 13:25

I knew a stunning girl who went out with a succession of arseholes. She never thought of herself as beautiful - she was very shy - she just thought she was unlucky in love. It was her friends who worked out that that all the good ones thought she was out of their league and only men that wanted a trophy girlfriend had enough confidence to ask her out. Fortunately she has now found someone lovely who got past how she looked! I don't understand these women saying "I'm so beautiful that women hate me and men can't resist me" - they are only setting themseleves up for people to tell them that they are deluded.

Witchend · 17/10/2017 13:27

If I met her I would assess her to be slightly older than me in the first picture. In the second picture I would probably ass her as slightly younger, but that's more because of how she's dressed. If I saw her then I'd think she was dressing a little young for how she looks. If she was genuinely worried about people thinking she was younger then she wouldn't dress like that.

I'm in my 40s, so similar age to her.

I suspect she's misinterpreted people's polite response of "oh I thought you were younger" in the same way you get parents thinking their child is the best when people say "isn't he adorable". Most people recognise it as a mixture of polite and being nice.

I doubt extremely that any of the dd's friends want to date her. In fact if any of them see this I suspect her dd may find she has no friends willing to go within 30 miles of her...

BINGO. I think the woman from the OP has come onto the thread!

Hi Dawn............ waves

Oliversmumsarmy · 17/10/2017 13:36

Her eyes give her true age away. I looked at her and thought.. Early 40s.. But thought given the opening line, she was actually about 60 or 70 in which case I thought she did look good for a 70year old.

If she is a wannabe model/actress I think she missed the boat by a couple of decades

VladmirsPoutine · 17/10/2017 13:36

I do think she needs counselling though. Seems to be masking a huge ego with a sense of utter emptiness. Sort of always chasing attention. When it fades she'll come out with something else outrageous. Not good imho.

KoalaD · 17/10/2017 13:41

She's definitely better looking than Samantha Brick. What the hell was she on?! Cos I want some.

whiskyowl · 17/10/2017 13:42

Hahah! No, I'm not the woman from the TV. I do think she's pretty and I don't like threads that run down other women for being confident, so sue me.

Why bother coming on the thread then? If you don't LIKE this type of thread?! Best leave if you are that upset by people being soooooo mean to the poor lady.

WitchesGlove · 17/10/2017 13:47

I knew someone who claimed to be bullied from every school she attended because she was 'pretty'!

I mean you can be bullied for being too ugly, but I think it's more likely she was bullied for being narcissistic and vain!

If it's such a problem for people that are 'too pretty' why don't they do something to ruin their looks?

THIS ^

It's a load of shit really isn't it?!

And as I said, these people (usually women) who claim this, (that they are too pretty to work, too pretty to find a relationship, too pretty to go to jail, so pretty that all women are jealous of her, etc etc,) are always average looking.

Funny that!
