Pretty women
Fascinating...
Sipping coffee,
Or dancing...
Pretty women
Are a wonder
Pretty women!
Sitting in the window or
Standing on the stair
Something in them
Cheers the air
Pretty women...
Silhouetted...
Stay within you...
Glancing...
Stay forever...
Breathing lightly...
Pretty women...
Pretty women!
Blowing out their candles or
(Blowing out their candles)
Combing out their hair
(Combing out their hair and then they...)
Even when they leave
(Even when they leave you and vanish)
They still...
(They, somehow can still remain there)
Are there
(With you)
They're there...
(There, with you)
Pretty women!
At their mirrors,
In their gardens,
Letter-writing,
Flower-picking,
Weather-watching,
How they make a man sing!
Proof of heaven, as you're living!
Pretty women!
(Pretty women)
Sir!
Pretty women!
(Pretty women)
Yes!
Pretty women!
(Pretty women)
Oh!

Very attractive man here, at least in terms of facial aesthetics. Women smile at me a lot. Random people have asked if I was an actor on a few occasions. However, I seldom am fully aware of it, as I am humble and am not vain. My attractiveness becomes self apparent not when marveled at, but rather, when disdained, by envious, lesser people who have no other desire than to beat you down. There is severe envy from average looking men, and numerous instances of 'blocking' (the vulgarity removed). I also have felt horrible bouts of anxiety when alone and single, which is viewed at with suspicion by many when you look so good. It's been said on this board that inner purity manifests as outward beauty and juxtaposing my own looks, acts and internal striving against those disgusting perversions of confirmed ugly posters (e.g, butterfly), is almost proof of this. While never applied to bodily attributes, Aquinas wrote "Just as virtue gives the soul its beauty, so sin makes it ugly". Does virtue or even its pursuit foreordain not just internal beauty ? It leads to questions like. Is this some metaphysical blessing prepared in advanced? Or in another current, at times when I find religion ridiculous, is it physiognomy? This can also be generalized to women from experience. The best looking women, the 10/10s, were almost never promiscuous and seldom drank. The ones below this standard though, were loose, hedonistic, partied to no end. It's already been proven that very attractive people are statistically the most intelligent, so that could also explain this distinction too.

If you drink and smoke and generally live badly, you will quickly lose your 10/10 looks, especially if female. One of my vague university friends got married recently, so I saw a lot people I hadn't seen for ten years. The women had all aged to a shocking extent, apart from this one very strict Christian girl who never went to parties and came to the wedding with her fiancé and first ever partner. She still looked stunning and youthful.

Not sure of any, the sensation would be the same as writing about the feeling of being intelligent and seeing the adults around you turn into lesser intelligent versions of themselves. I was very not attractive and grew up to be a solid 8/10, so I have some relatively good perspective. Quite honestly, it matters way less than you'd assume. It helps with being initially likeable, but men, especially in interviews, will give me a skeptical second look, as they don't think I've been in my current role due to pure merit, whereas women seem to like me significantly more. Additionally, girls hitting on me isn't really a joy as they're nearly universally 4s and the decently attractive ones generally don't, but will sit near me and smile at me occasionally. One thing of note is that attractiveness is VERY relative. I'm a good looking dude, but if there's a better looking guy in the room, then the effect is gone. The only up side is because I care about my partner's looks a lot, I don't have to worry about dating outside my league.

im an attractive female who is very introverted.

i go out with my angry bitch face and people's emotions are tied to how my face looks it's pretty weird. people notice me and my face and are instantly influenced by what mood i am feeling. when i am smiling, i will see others smiling, when i look to a certain tree i notice other people will look at it too. it's a strange phenomenon, because all i want is to be invisible and yet i am everything but that. you cant walk outside without everyone trying to hover around you, the park you want to sit and read your book will be slowly filling up with other randoms. if you read on the bus you'll slowly notice other people taking out their books and "reading" idk being beautiful is hell and no upsides unless you love attention

I'm a guy and I experience the same, sometimes in a very overt way. I think it has more to do with having an expressive face, or some kind of emotional sensitivity that reflects your inner state more strongly in your features than for most people, and less with strictly how attractive you are.

Attractive people don't choose to 'have orbiters', the entire concept of the orbiter is that they orbit without consent.
