Beautiful Women: An Observation

[Big Sarge]

Everyone can date the prom queen... some just have to wait til she's four sizes larger, divorced, and bitter.

[Undertoad]

She was a party girl, stayed up til the small hours
Now she's embarrassing and everybody laughs
At the girl with the face that could drive her baby wild
Now wasn't she the child with everything?

You should have seen her with her head held high
Now what do pretty girls do?
She used to be the apple of his eye
Now what do pretty girls do?
She went through such a lot and never even learned
That even pretty girls can get their fingers burned

She's got a cabin in a town upon the border
She gets in trouble with the local law and order
Everybody's happy when she isn't at the door
She sends out invitations to everyone
They don't come
(And the phone ain't ringing for her now)

You should have seen her with her head held high
Now what do pretty girls do?
She used to be the same as me or you
Now what do pretty girls do?
Well they get older just like everybody else
She never thought she'd have to take care of herself

Now there's an uplifting thought to start the day

[limey]

I prefer to think of it like this

[Sundae]

So the deal is marry the beautiful girl when she is still beautiful, then have a painful and costly divorce.
Or marry the beautiful woman when she's a bit bigger and is bitter and twisted.

How about marrying the person who you find interesting and make good friends with and then even if both of you get fat you still have something to talk about?

And no, that's not aimed specifically at you, Sarge
Just the chip on my shoulder from never being considered beautiful.

[DanaC]

Which, frankly, having seen photos of you at various ages, with various looks, including those lovely glam shots, is fucking surreal.

[Aliantha]

I've been doing a lot of thinking about my 'Glory Days' lately.

I think I'm heading for some kind of mid life upheaval.

Stay tuned!

[infinite monkey]

Anyone can date the quarterback, just wait until he's bald, fat, unemployed, and an alcoholic.

[Aliantha]

I did that in HS. I saw him about 10yrs later and he still looked just as good then.

God I thought the sun rose and set in him back then. He was the one of all the HS boys that I would have married I reckon. We did date a few times after school had finished, but it kinda fizzled out. I can't even remember why, but he's the one I always wonder about.

Everyone has one of those don't they?

[ZenGum]

"Everybody always secretly hates the prettiest girl in the room." Ani Di Franco.

[jimhelm]

Anyone with the balls to ask the pretty woman out has a chance. Those who don't ...don't.

there is a chance that she might be just as pretty inside.....

[ZenGum]

Aww, Jim, you're smitten with this new girl, ain't ya?

[ZenGum]

Oh and don't bother learning any Ani Di Franco songs. It only impresses a certain type of girl, and that type is lesbian.

I have been declared to have "lesbian credibility", though. That took Ani, Melissa Etheridge and the Indigo Girls.

[jimhelm]

that was SO not the point.

I've never had the balls to ask the SUPER hot ones out.... I was just saying,... they don't get asked a lot. cuz regular dopes like you and me go... uh,..yeah.. so far out of my league that she'd laugh in my face.... and never try.

[regular.joe]

I married the girl who was WAY out of my league. I was a joe just getting out of the Army after 9 years, with no prospects but to work on the cook line in a restraint in Monterey and surf all morning.

18 years later we have grown to become great friends, the sex is still HOT...I figured out that doing the dishes and playing a sheet of yahtzee is the best foreplay. I'm finally getting to have some prospects about myself and she's still with me. Oh yea, we are growing old and out of shape together. It's not such a big deal, it's more important that we show love for each other.
