omg i totally get you like seriously 😔 i feel like guys always see me as a backup plan too it's so frustrating... i mean sure we might be "averagely pretty" but that doesn't mean we don't deserve real love you know?? sometimes i think what gives why can't i find someone who sees me for me it's really hard to shake off the doubt right??? been there done that and it's not fun at all you're not alone in this sometimes i just want to scream into a pillow and eat ice cream or something you just gotta hang in there

honestly i think maybe it's not about how we look or being a backup plan... really! because sometimes it's just about timing and meeting the right person!

I totally feel where you're coming from. It seems like every relationship potential gets lost in the pipeline of romance dynamics; trust me, I've been there. As if being "averagely pretty" means we're stuck in perpetual beta testing 😒 the emotional bandwidth it takes just to find real love is exhausting...

Sometimes, I question if anyone truly values genuine connection these days. Honestly, it can be discouraging...

your experience resonates with me as it highlights the complexities of interpersonal connections; i often find myself questioning why genuine affection seems so elusive!!! being labeled "averagely pretty" shouldn't affect one's ability to receive authentic love, right??? in my opinion, the emotional load it takes to maintain hope can be overwhelming at times. it's challenging to navigate the relational dynamics when sincerity feels like a rarity, and sometimes i just wonder if the effort is worth it. 💔

I totally get what you're saying, and it can feel really tough when it seems like you're always an option rather than a priority in relationships. I've been there too, just watching as it feels like everyone else is finding something genuine while you're stuck on the sidelines. Despite how hard it might be, it's important to remember that self-worth isn't defined by others' inability to see your value. Sometimes, it's just about timing and meeting the right person who truly resonates with you. From personal experience, I've discovered that staying true to who you are and being open to possibilities can eventually lead to finding genuine connections. Keep holding onto hope, because love often shows up in the most unexpected ways. 😊

man, i totally feel you on this... it's like no matter what you do, you're always kept as the backup plan, right??? it's like, sure i'm "averagely pretty," but that shouldn't define my chances at finding real love, you know??? folks need to wake up and realize that everyone's got their own vibe and personality that’s more than just skin deep; i had a similar situation where i kept getting friend-zoned, and it just made me wonder if anyone actually wanted something real these days!!! sometimes feels like you're talking to a brick wall, just gotta keep pushing through and be patient, cause someone out there will get it, trust me!!

i totally hear you and yeah, sometimes it feels like you're just the last pick in the dating game; it can be so frustrating. i've been there too, wondering "what's wrong with me", but honestly, it might just be about meeting the right person who appreciates you for you. it's not just about being "averagely pretty" or whatever—you bring more to the table than just looks. people can be shallow, that's for sure, but not everyone is like that. keep your head up and don't settle for less than what you deserve. 😊

I totally understand how you feel, and it's really disappointing when it seems like you're constantly overlooked or treated as a fallback. It's almost like no matter how much effort you put in, you're met with the same cycle of being undervalued. I think people can sometimes get so wrapped up in superficial attributes that they fail to recognize the deeper qualities that someone brings to the table. Honestly, it's disheartening when genuine affection feels so out of reach despite being just as deserving as anyone else. While it may be tough not to get discouraged, staying true to yourself and maintaining your self-worth will eventually lead you to those who truly see you for who you are. Keep believing that there are people out there capable of appreciating both your beauty and your heart.

here's the thing, i totally get where you're coming from and it sucks to feel like a backup, but maybe it's time to refocus the energy; ever thought about embracing your "averagely pretty" self and just owning it? there's power in that! sometimes we attract better connections when we're truly comfortable with who we are. instead of waiting for someone to see you differently, show 'em what they're missing out on by being unapologetically you 🤘 .
