way.
so i just finished watching bravo’s “the millionaire matchmaker” and while it is pretty entertaining, it is also pretty…depressing. all these guys, who the majority of the time seem like they’re overcompensating for something, have appearances as their number one priority. some stereotypical knock out dead goregous lady ( in the most conventional way) comes in and the guy is saying she’s not pretty enough! let’s totally forget about personality, intelligence, or if the person punches babies in their free time. these guys are totally “picking with their pecker” as patty the matchmaker likes to say. this episode there was a 48 guy who was very adamant about dating 25-28 year olds. i’m going on 23 and my dad is turning 50 this year, so that comparison alone would make most people puke in their mouth a little.
not like i have a problem with age differences, but there’s just a lot of things to question when you have an older guy looking for a specific age. personally, i’d say mid 30′s would be my cut off range. there just gets to be a point where the generation gap is very noticeable. like i’m sure someone who knows about Mr. Green Jeans would have no clue about the background of the White Power Ranger and vice versa. Irrelevant topics, yes. But it’s the little small things that people have in common that can really make a difference.
but back to the beauty issue. i know i don’t fit into the conventional standards of beauty. if anything, i’m just interesting looking at most. i like “interesting” better than “beautiful”. beauty can get boring. a little snaggle tooth or mole with a hair growing out of it never hurt anyone.
