I could not even finish reading the article, what a prat.

But the question is do you like your friends to be not as pretty as you?

I can't say I have ever given it any thought.

Actually, just have a read of all her articles, what a load of drivel!

I think, on balance, most of my friends are prettier / more attractive than me, and they are lovely people whom I love very much.

PetiteRaleuse · 03/04/2012 09:03

The same woman writes equally trashy shite about the French and France. I just clicked to see her previous articles - none of them seem to make much sense and base themseves on ludicrous stereotypes.

SeoraeMaeul · 03/04/2012 09:04

I have a friend who does get the odd gift from strangers - she is tall and blonde but I wouldn't say traditionally pretty. What I would say is she almost always has a smile, loves life and always sees the positive. I strongly suspect it's that attitude that gets the attention. She also has lots of female friends again I suspect because of her attitude and because she treats everyone male and female the same.

This woman is just makes me go Hmm and Shock

Beauty's all in the eye of the beholder though, isn't it? Going from the photos accompanying the article, she is a pretty enough woman, but not stunning, and no prettier than many other women I might pass in the street. Perhaps the reason she seems so unpopular is because of the way she carries herself, and her air of superiority and smug sense of self. Ugly on the inside.

LimeLeafLizard · 03/04/2012 09:04

This is funny and has cheered up my morning.

Grin at Psammead!

I feel slightly sorry for this foolish woman. She isn't even particularly attractive - OK, but no more than most people.

The second article is even more ridiculous.

I think she is ordinary looking,her hair is thinning,could image it lank when not washed,and a false smile,probably feel sorry for her,thats why she gets what she says she gets.:)

sassskia · 03/04/2012 09:07

Will probably come across as big headed now but, I honestly feel that I am more attractive than the woman in the article and I dont even think im in anyway above average!
I have never once had any of the encounters she has had, so shes either deluded or the people the is talking about are!

LittleWhiteMice · 03/04/2012 09:08

your body just carries your soul, really dousnt matter what you look like

dearprudence · 03/04/2012 09:08

She goes on a bit, doesn't she?

And if she's so happy to get wrinkly and grey and old so people will stop bothering her by finding her so beautiful, maybe she should pack in all the work-outs and chocolate-denial and Wilmslow-wife 'outfits'.

Stratters · 03/04/2012 09:10

I think I'm more attractive than her too sass. I'd never write drivel like that though, there's plenty of women far better looking than me.

BenderBendingRodriguez · 03/04/2012 09:10

"Women don't like me, they're just jealous." The last refuge of the terminally deluded.

I can't say other women's looks are a factor in whether we hit it off and stay friends. What I have noticed is the more I get to know and like someone, the better looking they appear to me.

This is me, now who's prettier eh? MEEEEEEEEEEEE, I am alright.

BlackAffronted · 03/04/2012 09:12

She wears those outfits because because her husband "controls" her weight & wardrobe Shock

INeverFinishAnythi · 03/04/2012 09:12

It confused me how at the end she said she can't wait to get grey hairs and wrinkles so she can blend in and the jealousy will stop, and yet earlier was going on about how she works out even when she doesn't feel like it, so she's obviously not that desperate to look 'normal' even though she already does Deluded.

Thought this from the comments was genius though: Unless lots of money is involved people tend to have partners roughly as attractive as they are. Look at your husband dear, that should be a reality check. Ha!

Stratters · 03/04/2012 09:13

Ahh, it's her is it, Black. Her DH isn't much of a catch though is he.

Psammead · 03/04/2012 09:13

Ok in the interests of fairness I must amend my previous assesment. It's not terrinly written.

But either she photographs badly, or she is deluded. She's a pip over average looking, but not remarkable.

It takes a certain kind of person to be 'blanked' by someone going past in a car and to assume it's because they were too beautiful to be waved at.

All the freebies - I'd bet she talks loudly about being a DM reporter and how she loves writing articles on service etc.

piellabakewell · 03/04/2012 09:14

Hmm, maybe they should have included some more photos of her in the article...a squillion isn't quite enough Hmm

Stratters · 03/04/2012 09:15

She reminds me horribly of Saint Jilly's 'Jen Teale' character in looks.

ledkr · 03/04/2012 09:15

Wow! I am definately prettier than her and I also have a delicious ten year younger fit dh, not some old french guy who looks like Danny De Vito.
She suffers from facial dismorphia obviously.
All those strangers giving her flowers and champers did so as they felt sorry for her Grin

She looks only averagely attractive to me - nicely turned out, nicely groomed, trim, seems to make the best of herself - but that's it. Just like millions of thousands of other women everywhere - she is not a drop dead gorgeous, head turning stunner by any means, so I am Confused to say the least.

She's a tad smug and over-confident though, that's for sure.

MightyNice · 03/04/2012 09:17

maybe she is just not photogenic

anyway this explains why I am lucky to have so many lovely friends, because am ugly?
