Is it shallow to be attracted to attractiveness, and look down on others?

If not, then why do you think that is?
Yes everyone can and most likely has been a complete and utter cunt in their lives. The good thing about people is that we can change!
This means one day your time will come too Jomery, you will have a huge big cock slapping reality check right across your face. It'll open your eyes to the things you've been avoiding and perhaps secretly longing for.
You wanna live like common people....
People are people. Good and bad everywhere.
What are you trying to prove to us? It's just the same old shit. Well done you for being smart and rich and 'happy' - so what are we supposed to be discussing here?
I got 7 A grades at GCSE (ok, so not A*)
I'm 2/3 of the way to completing a degree from York, which is only just behind Oxbridge in terms of degree quality.
That covers the intelligence part. As for the 6 figure salary, I doubt I will ever, ever make that amount of money, not even in my lifetime. I'll be happy if, between us, me and my partner can earn enough money to buy a modest house somewhere in Yorkshire and raise a family. These things are important to me.
Honestly, I think you are rude, conceited and arrogant. I'm not chav, a football hooligan, a drunkard, vomiting in your street at 3am, a bricklayer with no A levels, a drunken, mindless racist. You seem to view the rest of the population (other than yourself and fellow investment bankers) as this. You're wrong - I don't know (personally) ANYBODY who fits your description of the "other 99%".
As for being able to discard 99% of the people in London and associate with the "top" 1%, have you ever thought that perhaps IF people have the same ideas as you, they include YOU in the 99% of people they wouldn't touch with a bargepole?
But hey, I'm glad you're happy with your life. Do you think you could stop moaning about it on here though? If you're that happy, why moan about it?
You'd be surprised... I don't know what background you're from, but I know lots of people who get A* grades and who are getting 1sts in their degree (some come from well off enough backgrounds not to have to work though).
Tbh it's nothing special, neither is earning a lot of cash, but then it depends what you value really. To me, a paycheck is nothing compared to an artistic, intelligent or open-minded individual (not that they are not exclusive traits, I just don't think you need to be especially talented to get a good degree, but more a hardworker). If you have got a 1st degree from Oxford, whilst working two jobs then fair play, you're a hard worker... But you don't need to be anything special to get a degree... You just need to be able to relay what information you have beem given on to paper.
Not to say that you haven't worked... But from what you've said about yourself, apart from having money you seem pretty ordinary by my standards. Too many people these days seem to think they're "unique" or out of the ordinary (and often better, or 'special') when they aren't. If you wanna look at people who aren't 'ordinary', you need to look further than shallow exclusive wine bars...
There are people living real and unconventional lives (not to say you aren't Jomery, but from what you have defined that apparently makes you 'special')... Being truelly eccentic, crazy, visionary not because they have money, but because they look beyond convention and cultural norms. These people are not 'ordinary'.
BUT Are you Happy?
You don't sound a happy chap and seem to need a hook to hang everything off of or a label to justify yourself.
Oxbridge is a label it's not the name of a University - is that a degree from Oxford or Cambridge? or do you just use that label to double your appeal by mentioning two Universities in one go?
And why did you put in brackets dating a nice girl (investment banker)
Most guys would be happy enough just dating a nice girl - regardless of her job, and most people would rather be dating someone who can spend time with them then someone who can't because they work over 100 hours a week.
Do whatever it is you want that makes YOU happy and doesn't harm others.
But I am very flirty and stuff and some people are so ugly I can't even flirt because it just makes me feel gross!
ah well.. lol
That's different to making friends though. If you're looking to flirt of course you're going to look for someone you are attracted to
Well if you need a lift anywhere, give me a call. I'm afraid I don't have an airbag in the passengers side though.
Is anyone else thinking of the song Paranoid Android right about now? Written by a fellow Oxbridge graduate, no less.
Yeah, but that's different.
I'm the same, as in I usually socialise with good looking girls because I like flirting, and alot of my female friends I find attractive. Although I still have a few female friends that I don't find good looking, because at the end of the day if they're nice people then it doesn't matter and I'll still be their friend.
My male mates, I couldn't give a shit what they look like.
I think the difference is when you start looking down on other people because of how they look or what their job/salary/background is.
It's an interesting point. You are subconsciously more likely to trust someone who is physically attractive (as in objectively attractive, not that you specifically are attracted to). I remember reading about a study done which found that more attractive people were less likely to be found guilty in a court with a jury, and if found guilty, given a shorter sentence on average. And in case anyone's wondering, by attractive, they basically mean symmetrical face with features as close as possible to the average human (i.e. the same features they look for in a model).
Nice is bland.
You say you've got the money and the looks, hows about you start working on your personality, attitude and people skills.
GET A LIFE.
I don't think you really believe that, else you wouldn't have started this thread.
You treat people like cars and watches, as trophies and as something to boast about. There a whole world out there o relationships built on trust, honesty and loyalty and your going to miss out until one day when your old and lonely, you'll have some serious regrets.
Again with the OXBRIDGE
Is it Oxford or Cambridge - I can just imagine you there on the banks of the Thames at the Annual Race rooting for ... "Oxbridge" ...
