The Darker Side of Being Beautiful



Everything has two sides: the good side and the bad side. And Beauty is not an exception; it has also disadvantages.

Beauty is like a rose; very attractive, yet it has thorns. Having beauty is not always a win-win situation. Here are a few of problems that you may encounter if you are, assumingly, beautiful.

The Magnetic Attraction of your Beauty and The
Attention of the Opposite Sex.

 We all know that one characteristic of someone beautiful or handsome is that they are the ones who will be talked about by everyone. Being beautiful means everyone who is opposite to your sex will be attracted to you. So, it means you will live a public life, and you will your simple, private one. It may sound astonishing to have everyone’s attention, but trust me; it could be strangling life to live (just like mine; uhuh, uhuh.. I can’t breath). You will have to watch your every move and to keep your grace to maintain your reputation as “attractive”.

The Magnetic Repulsion of your Beauty and of the
Similar Sex.

Eyes. Envy. Enemies.
These three Es you shall encounter to the same sex you have if you are, assumingly, good looking. Attention is one of the most prioritized goods in the social industry, and the competition is as fierce as war. If you have plenty of this important good, you will be envied by your competitors. Others will try everything to bring you down, so they can outshine you. And to be able to accomplish this, they will put their eyes on you, spying on you, waiting for a possible moment to execute their mission. So, being careful, in your every move and in choosing your friends, is necessary on being beautiful.



Vanity Virus

If, let’s just say, you are beautiful, there is a huge possibility that you will be obsessed to this war for attention. It means you will be obsessed in taking care, and even upgrading your greatest weapon in this battle: your looks. Vanity is one influential hobby, it will affect much of your lifestyle (in some cases, vanity is their lifestyle, just in my case). You will spend  time, to fix yourself to your satisfaction and money, to buy every possible products and services you could use to maintain you good looks. Be very careful, because you may get a little too vain that you will not be contented on how you look, and that will drive you to do something that will destroy, not only your beauty, but also your health.


Now here are three of the disadvantages of beauty. I hope you learned something that you could use to adapt to your, assumingly, beauty.
