TikTokker complains she’s ‘very single’ because she’s pretty and smart — and men are ‘terrified’ of that
She’s so seductive it’s scary.
A TikTokker has gone viral with a post complaining that she’s “very single” because men are “terrified” that she’s so pretty and smart.
Ashley, who goes by @ashbabank on the video-sharing platform, said that people are often surprised to learn that she doesn’t have a boyfriend, has zero men romantically pursuing her and hinted that it’s been eight months since she’s been intimate with someone.
The fashion stylist living in Texas claimed that people are surprised by the current state of her dating life because she’s “so pretty,” but her looks have actually ruined her chances at romance.
Given her natural beauty combined with her hard-earned successes, “you’ve got a very terrifying woman on your hands … a very not easy woman,” Ashley insisted — which “men don’t like,” she added.
“Men don’t like me,” Ashley said adding, “Men are very, very terrified of me.”
She then admitted that some men do like her but claimed that they are all either unavailable or “ugo [ugly] weirdos.”
“Because at the end of the day, I’m merely just a fantasy. I am not a real human because of the pretty and scary,” Ashley said.
“So yes, I’m alone. I’m very, very, very, very single.”
The video was captioned, “Lonely life when you know your worth.”
Ashley may be single but she’s not alone in feeling like her looks, brains and success have hindered her dating life.
“It’s so hard to be pretty AND SMART. Like, I wish I was delulu and had no standards but here we are,” a top comment reads.
“Yup. They idealize you, then at the end resent and hate you for everything they loved and adored about you at the beginning because you bring out all their insecurities. Still single, but happy,” another agreed.
Last year, the concept of pretty privilege went viral as people debated the advantages and disadvantages of their good looks. Some boasted about the free trips and gifts they’ve received while others complained that people don’t take them seriously.
