    Well my friends are beautiful and I know I'm not ugly --- so no, none of this going on in my group of friends.
    There might be apeople with a particular personality type (manipulative, insecure, selfish) who does something like this, but it's certainly not the personality of anyone I would or could ever be friends with.

    All of my friends are guys.... Literally. All of them. So I don't do this. I can't stand hanging out with girls... they annoy me.

    This is NOT, repeat NOT a personal attack but a general pet peeve of mine when I see/hear women say this. I USE to say this a lot when I was younger and felt threatened or insecure around other females. I got over my issues and now I can't imagine now having my girl friends. There are few that I'm really close with but their friendships bring so much more to the table than my friendships with my guy friends.

    if you read my post, I said it was NOTHING I agree with, but have heard of. I would NEVER choose my friends on how they make me look, but rather how good of people they are, are they fun, etc....

    SOME (imo, very rarely) guys keep losers with them. It doesn't have to be ugly, just unsuccessful in general. They keep em around because his failure amuses them and once in a while when he's in a crutch if he asks them for a mediocre favor, doing that favor for him which typically wouldn't be a big deal, makes them feel a LOT better about themselves.

    Sometimes guys keep these losers because he's the funny one in the group.

    Its not a good feeling to be that "ugly" friend

    I 100% can say that I would never be friends with anyone who did this. In most situations, I could be considered the "ugly" one in my circle of friends.....they don't keep me around because I "make them look better." We are as close as sisters, we love each other, and would do anything for one another. We are friends because we are compatible and truly enjoy each others' personalities, not because of any physical features.

    Don't worry, you were perfectly clear; bitterness knows no logic :flowerforyou:

    I don't feel threatened or insecure around other females. I just can't relate to them as well as I can with guys. The stuff most girls talk about, I just don't like. I know that yes, there probably is a girl out there like me who hates shopping, talking about hair and stuff, likes video games and obscure asian horror movies... but for now, guys do that. So it's not an "insecure" thing at all, for me at least.

    Also, about 7/10 of my friends are gay males. So I even get the only real girl talk I like with them... about other hot guys. Ha.

    I get really annoyed when women say that too.

    I had some 'friends' like that. They didn't like me losing weight and getting attention either. Not my 'friends' anymore. Through out this journey of binge eating disorder and recovering I've truly found who my friends are. The little circle I have now are awesome!

    Well I for one have guy friends mostly! And it's got nothing to do with me having issues with anyone! :) it's just that I've been lucky enough to find decent guy friends but hardly ever found decent female friends! I have a couple and they are my besties but that's it! Maybe it's cause I grew up with 7 boys at home I just can't stand for the female drama lol

    ummm, gawd I hope I've never hung out with anyone who gives two sh*ts about this..but yeah, I think it is real...I have never been svelt, so maybe I'm the fat friend...but I base my friendships on humor...you could look like Christie Brinkley..if you aren't funny, you aren't going to be fun to hang with...My own bestie can make me laugh so hard I sound like a chimp in heat...and it certainly isn't pretty.

    Yea, I may not be friends with Puffy on here but see enough of her posts to know she's a doll and not that type.

    You sir have posted many women-bashing posts and I'm sorry you had a rough time but it's time to get over it. Seek therapy if need be however blaming ALL for the actions of a few is ignorant to say the least.
    You've taken the steps to improve yourself physically now how about taking the steps to improve yourself mentally and emotionally. The victim card is old and overused.

    I may be fat and ugly, but I'm the only one of my RL friends that is financially stable. I'm ****ing 50cent compared to them and waving around my stack in the club gets me all the *****es.

    Well, I would say I am less attractive than most of my friends, but they are all gay for the most part. And I am awesome and opinionated, so girls at least will buy me drinks.

    Some women like shopping, makeup, video games AND obscure asian horror flicks. It's not either/or, and it's really not helping you out any to rule out an entire sex of humans just because you don't think they're as unique and different as you.

    Everyone is ugly compared to someone else, it's all relative.

    I have heard of this, but never seen/heard someone in RL say they do this!

    It's messed up IMO. I am friends with those who I get on well with, whom I enjoying spending time with. Their attractiveness never comes into question!
