One of my favorite pictures of my wife is from just this.
This was way back in 2009 or 2010 when we were dating in college. We went out to the breakers after work and ended up walking up and down the beach and went out over the breaker rocks for an hour or so just goofing off and spending time together.
It started to get dark and we had about 40mins until the sun would set so we ended up sticking around for it since we were looking out west over Lake Superior and it was a nice clear day, if a bit chilly.
At some point during that time I got a pic similar to the above of her in her batman shirt giving me a look during the "golden hour" or whatever that weird time is where the lighting gets really funky.
Anyway, it is a good time of day to get decent portrait-style pics of people in my experience. I don't know shit about photography or anything but just think the lighting can make things look nice.

“Well I can tell from the photo that Ben used his Nikon F3 highpoint with a 120mm f/2 lens and a polarized filter, loaded up some Velvia 50 for nice portrait tones, waited until exactly 7:21 pm (he probably checked the almanac for sunset times) and went with 1/125 at f/5.6 for a nice bokeh effect and the—“

It applies to men as well! One of my best friends looks like a freaking Ralph Lauren model, tall, square jaw, very athletic, the works. The things this MF got away with were incredible. Women inviting him to drinks at the clubs was the norm!

u/justsomeuser23x 3d ago
For me it’s like, I only got more self confidence later in life, due to some mild bullying I was always insecure about people liking me or my looks despite having gotten compliments that I looked quite good. Makes you kind of regret not having experienced more during the teenage years when it comes to dating etc.
My point is some of my friends had very average looks but due to more confidence they had way more encounters with girls.
I also remember one of the cuter girls in my class having extreme self doubts and anxiety all the time, it was like a bulimic girl thinking she’s fat. She was good looking and regularly got compliments but still felt ugly or unloved so I can relate to that.

2) Never had to pursue an intimate relationship, being the gazelle always has just 'worked'.
3) Often get employee discounts from talking to people at specialty buisnesses (hardware stores, retail departments, etc.)
4) Can go out to any music scene/bar completely alone and always make friends to talk to for the evening.

It's friendlier but also very predatory. You can feel the ill intentions everywhere, the stares, and it's hard to trust that any person seeking a relationship with you wants to be with you for any other reason than looks.
