CYNICAL

It’s amazing how peoples attitudes change when your appearance changes.
The clothes you wear and especially if you put on weight.
Their whole out look of you changes
Especially if you are a single older female.
A guy will not even look at you if you don’t have a 21yr old figure.
Ok I am fussy too, so I definitely need to get my figure back.
I wouldn’t look twice at a guy unless I was attracted to him.
So it definitely works both ways.

People judge you on your appearance
When your heart is made of molten gold
The outside crusty, waiting for the right person to break that mould
People say it doesn’t cost money to look good,
Actually it does.
Unless you are born with a natural flawless beauty
In this world today
It’s as if you don’t exist.

The long road to recovery may just be too late
At 50 you have definitely missed the boat!
LOVE ME FOR WHO I AM, NOT WHAT YOU SEE!
