    ATTN: The reason you’re single is because you’re too attractive, study says

    Good news singletons: According to a recent study, your single status has nothing to do with being 'too picky', 'too available' or 'too high maintenance'.
     
    The real reason you're single, because you're too attractive.
     
    The Harvard University study found that people who are physically attractive struggle to maintain successful long-term relationships. 
     
    Apparently, there are a variety of reasons for this, including a 'grass is always greener' mentality. Regulation hotties often grow up with a lot of romantic interest, and are therefore always looking around for other options.
     
    The study's director, Christine Ma-Kellams, told Broadly, "Attractiveness gives you more options in terms of relationship alternatives, which might make it harder to protect a relationship from outside threats." 
     
    "In this sense, having too many other choices is likely not beneficial for relationship longevity."
     
    Ma-Kellams makes a few suggestions for good-lookers if they want to get the long-term relationship thing down pat. "One possible takeaway for physically attractive people is to be aware of their own capacity and tendencies in close relationships," she said.
     
    "Ending a relationship isn't necessarily a negative thing (depending on the perspective), but if the goal is to have an enduring one, then perhaps an attractive person should be mindful of their own limitations and not rely too heavily on their own appeal."
     
    What do you think? Is it possible you're single because you're just too damn attractive?

    What a laugh! That sounds like an excuse for not being able to maintain a meaningful and loving relationship.

    My purpose out here today is to share this article to the world about how Doctor Odunga helped me in getting back my EX-boyfriend that broke up with me 4 months ago. I tried all i can to make him see reasons with me so that we can continue our relationship but he denied me. Thank God for giving me the thought of going into the internet for help, i searched properly and i saw different reviews of Doctor Odunga and i insisted in giving it a try by contacting him via what's app on (+2348167159012). He gave me reason to live again and he prepared a spell and told me that my Ex-boyfriend will come back to me within 28 hours. Can you believe it, my EX-boyfriend came back to me and our wedding will hold Soon. Contact him now!!! if you need any help. Email: odungaspelltemple@gmail.com and he does a lot of spells. Once again i want to say am very grateful for your help

    Wow. No, I don't think that's really the reason.

    Isn't the saying Beauty is in the Eye of the Beholder! Ones person's opinion on what is beautiful isn't what someone else would think! But I have heard many attractive people say that, that they couldn't get the right person because they are too beautiful. So who really knows!

    Alas, this is not my problem!

    That formatting at the beginning & end of each paragraph is off-putting!

    Not sure I agree, what one person sees as hot another doesn’t, some like slim, others like curvy, hair colour, height etc all vary according to personal preference. I think the whole too many options is the problem, we have a world at our fingertips therefore many options for meeting and forming relationships, the “old days” you had to schlep off to a bar or something. We are always connected via devices, if things get hard it’s easy to tap and find something easier.
