Do questions like this make you annoyed? "I'm smart, I have big boobs, I'm not fat, I'm pretty, I have a good personality... Why don't I have a boyfriend?"

I kinda like em, its a good way to meet desperate girls online, now, if you could just show me a copy of your I.D. and give me your credit card number, we can proceed.
-
No. it is expected from teenagers who are still trying to define themselves. Teenage angst is amusing. You will see in 20 or so years. Remember that for every Jack there is a Jill, many times over.
-
YES, and I think the answer would be "maybe you don't have a boyfriend cuz you are too into yourself, hahahahahahahahahahaha
-
At first I thought yes, but then I changed my mind. They don't because whoever is asking is just asking for emotional support. They feel unconfident and lonely, and just need to talk. That just happens to be the only way they can think to phrase their emotions.
-
They don't bother me. Most of us are searching for that special someone if we haven't found them yet. If you fit the classical 'nice looking woman' profile it is probably even more puzzling when Mr. Right doesn't fall into your lap. Or a couple of Mr. Wrongs while you're waiting at least.
-
Not at all.
-
No, but questions like "Do questions like this make you annoyed?...." do
-
Nope, as long as they're legal, I'll talk to them.
-
Sure...I remember that particular question. While it can easily be perceived as haughty, arrogant and attention whoring, we also have to consider that someone like that may feel insecure or anxious, doesn't know how else to word something, and not that I would know but, women with all these qualities often do suffer social pressure, maybe it's not all it's cracked up to be. So, while I do, at first glance judging on how I answered it, find it annoying and obnoxious, it's not anymore as such than people who call out other members in their questions. But maybe this is the same thing, so don't mind me, lulz.
-
No I just wish they would say these things to me in person. ;-)
-
It's annoying because many of those issues don't pertain to the quality of relationship. It's like asking why nobody will dine at a restautant without mentioning the food that is served (only focusing on the decoration and friendly waitstaff).
-
Not really. The anonymity of AB is a good outlet for that kind of frustration. I remember thinking things like that -- hell, I still do sometimes, though not the boyfriend thing. We all get lonely sometimes, and loneliness is something many people feel needs to be justified in themselves - like "I'm lonely because... I'm ugly." "I'm lonely because... I'm a b*tch." I mean, isn't that how we look at other people? "Carla would have more friends if she didn't talk smack about everyone..." "Eww... I wouldn't go out with John, he has greasy hair."
-
yes, because really the girl already knows why...they hear the same response over and over again..they don't need to ask the question here..
-
Yes!! They do!!! I mean, we can't even SEE her boobs. How are WE supposed to know if she's telling the truth?!?!? She could be lying! We need PROOF! ..... basically, I just want to see boobs (at least I'm honest).
-
Yes. i really don't remember being the desperate and dumb in high school. I actually clearly remember saying I didn't -want- a boyfriend and have never once thought to measure myself by having on.
-
Nah. What really annoys me, is the people that answered that particular question, all self righteous and patronising and repetitive. Everybody needs a bit of validation sometimes.
-
hell yes... "I have a good personality" You mean apart from being a self-obsessed attention whore? Sheesh..
-
What annoys me is when people pick on other ABer's, quoting them word for word. Not fair.
-
yes, those kind of questions I find are very annoying. I just try not to answer those questions - beside I tend to have a very dry, sarcastic, and a lot of times dirty sense of humor and that is hard to properly get across online without being offensive or being seen as a jerk. Those kind of questions are subjective and there is no real way of knowing without actually being friends with or knowing the OP. For all we know, she might think she has a good personality but she really is a weirdo.
-
No. If the intent of the question is to gain attention rather than to seek help, an emotional reaction on my part would feed the asker's ego. If the question is legitimate, annoyance on my part would be rather inconsiderate. In those cases I examine their AB activity and either respond to their question with a possible explanation, or pass it up altogether, depending on my findings.
-
Not particularly. The only thing that bothered me about that was the assumption of the asker that the opposite of all those things has no value whatsoever. I know plenty of people who are not pretty, not very smart, have small boobs, and are a touch overweight that are certainly not bad catches. Nobody is perfect after all. I also take issue with the fact that this question, as Skeeter said, seems to be targeted at another user. That's just not cool. Perhaps, a better way to ask would have been: Do questions that obviously seek some sort of validation about a person's self worth annoy you? That way, you are not calling a specific user or their question out.
-
No they don't annoy me, they sadden me because they remind me what we have allowed the media, particularly Hollywood movies and glossy magazines, do to our children. Too many people these days have become convinced that their only value lies in what they look like. It also saddens me to see that air of superiority over somebody who isn't smart, doesn't have big boobs, is a little overweight, etc.
-
Ya that question annoyed me and the points she got pissed me even more : )))
-
Yes that question annoyed me, mainly because she is so VAIN!!!!!!
-
He he...they also forgot to say "I'm a psycho, I'm wanted for stalking guys in 55 states and I have 206 restraining orders against me in 189 countries"
-
Don't they usually end with "could I be pregnant?" lol
-
Pointing out a question asked by another ABer isn't cool. Asking for opinions on it isn't cool either.
-
Not so much annoyed as sad.
-
Yes! Yes! Yes! and then they mad because you call them arrogant.hehehe. They don't get it. I try to tell them that beauty is in the eye of the beholder and you can never judge a book by its cover or that I can explain it like a lemon, pretty and colorful on the outside but sour and bitter in the inside. The fact is that I know I'm smart, I love my big boobs and the fact that I am thin and pretty with a super great personality makes me a very normal person and I dont feel I have to shove it down peoples throat. :) hehehehe
-
No more than; "I'm smart,I have a large p#$is,6 pk abs good looking and a good personality why dont i have a girlfriend?"
-
yeah! And I can imagine my answers about poor pitiful me are too. I'm gonna put my big girl panties on and deal with it!!!
-
Not as long as they give me their number, after asking.....
-
Come on PLEEEEEASE!!! Show them to us!!!
-
Nah, I just move on to the next question. Obviously, the person asking this is too oblivious to see the forest for the trees. hehehe!
-
YES OMFG ITS BEEN POSTED LIKE 4 TIMES WOULD THAT PERSON (OR PEOPLE) POSTING IT EVER STFU?! Sorry about that, but like how stupid and shallow can one person be?
-
They make me chuckle.
-
not really, if i dont like a question, i dont have to answer
-
No, not really, but I am enjoyably amused --ROFL, actually-- by your witty retort to such. Bless ya.
-
Just ignore the Q: & move on 2 the next one.
-
Nah. C'mon, man! She's either needing attention or a real answer. Skip that one and go to the next question.
-
Nah, I'm too busy worrying about whether people are pregnant and speaking in period parlance;)
-
I just pass on those. Not worth getting worked up about.
-
No, they turn me on!
-
No, it means I might be getting lucky.
-
may b ur a stuck up b*** ?
-
Yeah. >:/
-
Annoyed? No. Although there are no answers that come to mind since all I want to do is drop a mirror in the reply box and click "DUH". Unfortunately people suck and AB has no "DUH" button...so I either ignore them or go on some drunken rant like this one :)
-
Yeah, because they base their value on mostly external characteristics. No one ever says, "I am a nice person. Why don't I have a boyfriend?" There are plenty of people who aren't pretty, busty, thin, or even particularly intelligent, and they have boyfriends. I like to think there's a lid for every pot.
-
amm... IM DUMB , HAVE NO BOOBS, IM FAT AND UGLY AND HAVE NO PERSONALITY! yet I have an awesome boyfriend ... suck on that b*** ! I just wish I had the guts to post that ( most of it is true :) )
