Dating Down

Dating down! This is something the nerd community kinda hoped for as it helped in getting those computer geeks, with Canadian girlfriends laid in real life. This phenomenon is something of a broken system and usually one you only see girls perpetuating. Guys well we are always looking to get with the best looking and coolest girl we can. For us a beautiful girl makes us look better. Right? Well for some girls dating someone that obviously doesn't deserve them makes them feel like a goddess. Like a “10” with a “4” you know. Of course they will say, “I'm just tired of good looking prick guys taking me for granted.” Hardly, girls are just as much about good looking guys as guys are with girls.
We all want someone we are attracted to and there is only so far a good personality will get you. What is that old phrase used to describe blind dates... the phrase you fear above all else... Oh yeah! “They have a great personality.” Makes you shudder in fear of just how hideous this person might be. I digress... back to this weird phenomenon of girls dating “meh” guys. I see it as the same reason a slightly attractive girl picks pretty unattractive friends to go out to the bars with at night. It's the ratio game. If you are the hottest girl in a group of 5 the guys will notice you first. Think the girls from Sex in the City, Charlotte had this mastered. Same thing happens with professors and papers. If your paper is “A” material but is shoved in between a bunch of other “A” papers you may get a “B” if the other papers are slightly better. Where if you have a “C” paper in the middle of a group of “F” papers chances are you'll get a much better grade because of the paper company that your paper was keeping. This principle works the same with people in groups. So take that and apply it to a girl that's a “7” dating a “3”. She's going to look amazing in comparison. She's going to look like a 10.
This will drive men to do very unruly things. On one hand you will have the guy who is involved with said attractive girl. For him there will be no rest to the misery he will suffer. Day in and day out he will be plagued with the thought that she could get better. Day in and Day out he will have to fend of the often unwanted advances of unscrupulous guys. As for the unscrupulous guys well you have hordes of them like the goblins come to crush the good folk of middle earth. Storming your fair maidens castle any chance they can. Walk away to get your lady a drink and come back to see some devilish rogue chatting her up. So with each new circumstance your non jealous attitude that you had at first because you assumed she would get hit on, rears it's ugly head and comes out in a nasty way. Snarky remarks, unapologetic looks of disgust at any who come near the table, and a sudden desire to take up some kind of marshal art. This will no doubt piss off the girl you're with because a little bit of jealousy is a good thing lets them know they are wanted but cross that line and well... you crossed a line.
So if you think your girl is dating down. Hell enjoy it and don't get super jealous. Love her without smothering her and see where it goes. If its just a moral boost you'll be tossed to the side early and left with a broken heart and damaged soul never able to truly trust again and contemplating how good emo bands have gotten recently. If it works then she wasn't dating down, really does like you and you just landed an amazing girl that you can share your time with. Either way that's just the way life goes so get off your damn couch, set down the keyboard and controler and meet that beautiful girl whose been waiting for Mr. Will do for Now!
