April is a former Ms Great Britain... so why does she claim it's impossible to find love? The answer gives a troubling insight into the mindset of many young men today as beauty queen reveals she gets 'ghosted' after dates

For an 'empowered, super-successful woman' (her words), 2020 Ms Great Britain April Banbury can be rather daft when it comes to men.

She's met goodness knows how many online in the past few years, dated 'more than 100' of them and slept with 'the ones I felt I might have a connection with potentially'. Then . . .

'They just ghost me,' she says with a look that's part fury, part hurt on her very pretty face.

Hmmmmm

Has she tried not putting out on the first date ???

[SauronOfMordor]

The problem with too many beautiful women, is they develop a sense of entitlement. Guys are supposed to spend money on her and satisfy her every need for the privilege of being allowed to look at her.

It looks like she is intellectually crippled, never having had to develop the skill of being enjoyable company.

Now she’s over 30, the exciting guys have moved onto the fresh batch of 20 year old cuties, and she is unwilling to accept dates from anyone less than prime Alpha males.

Sad commentary.

I wonder if those five mail her Christmas cards.

[Maskot]

Because it’s true! That can also apply to guys, you know.

Iv heard somewhere that if you want to be happy for the rest of your life, make an ugly woman your wife.

[Crusher138]

Of the multiple rude, crude and socially unacceptable comments on this post, you chose that one?

My 2 cents, she is the sad product of modern feminism. Pretty, successful, alone.

[JimSp]

you sound like that hit too close to home

[SauronOfMordor]

He said it because it is so often true.

As I said in my post #22, too many beautiful women coast on their beauty (until it starts fading in their 30s) and never develop the skill of being enjoyable company, because they didn’t have to in their 20s.

Then later they discover that behavior which would be tolerated in a cute 20 year old, does not get tolerated from a 40 year old.

Give me, rather, an average looking woman who makes an effort at being enjoyable company. Looks fade. Character is what remains.

“She sews her own clothes, too.”

SHOCKED!!! Were you there?! I thought we were alone in the kitchen.

I think most people already knew that stretch marks and all

[twister881]

Sad, but true: The men she’s attempting to attract want 20-somethings, not 30-somethings, even if they’re 30-somethings, too.

Also sad, but true: She has only about three years remaining of less dangerous child bearing. After 36, the risk of birth defects doubles, and in not too many years later, fertility drops off precipitously.

She’s in a tough spot. Instead of focusing on becoming a 30-year old beauty queen, she should have been more concerned about the future of her personal life.

[T.B. Yoits]

There’s only room for one in her spotlight and the guys know it.

[rbg81]

I see she is over 30. She is prime hump and dump material for the top 1% of men she thinks she deserves.

---

While women hold nearly all the cards up to age 25 (especially with men their age), that balance starts shifting after 25. Many women are slow to catch on to this. And no wonder as all they’ve ever known is absolute power in a relationship. By 35, even if they are great looking, they have lost nearly ALL their leverage.

Also, a 35 year old woman should be trying to date guys over 50.

[MinuteGal]

Maybe her problems are due to the fact that there's good men around who still believe in chastity, morality, religious standards and all that out-dated stuff.....and she doesn't qualify.

This seemed to get at the crox of things.

I was in a relationship with someone — a guy who was so gorgeous and stunning. I couldn’t believe my luck. We saw each other for about 18 months but he would flirt with girls and I didn’t like it.

‘Call that insecurity or a jealousy thing or whatever but I believe that wasn’t right. It didn’t make me feel good about myself.

‘I suggested breaking up. I really wanted him to fight for me and he didn’t. He bloody didn’t.

‘Afterwards, I was an emotional wreck. About a year after, he’d met someone else. On his Instagram he’d had a romantic dinner with her on a holiday. I thought, ‘How dare you meet somebody else and commit to them when you didn’t commit to me.’ It made me feel awful. I became a serial dater after him.

‘I’d go on so many dates it was shocking but I knew the feeling I had when I met him. You know, that fuzzy tummy?

‘You really fancy someone. You want to spend time with them. I knew that feeling existed, so I was chasing that. I’ve been on dates with so many men and I’ve never had that.’

As a ring of gold in a pig's snout So is a beautiful woman who lacks discretion.

I remember when it was Miss Great Britain, not Ms.

[alexander_busek]

Any time you see a pretty young woman who is alone, you know there is at least one guy out there sick of putting up with her bs.

Why would you say that. Seriously. What a horrible thing to say.

Because that is a truism (verging on being an "old saw") that, in very many cases, is, in fact, quite true.

Nor is it particularly "horrible."

I suggest that, by Free Republic standards, it was actually rather mild.
