During my last years of high school, I became friends with a guy who had just transferred to our school. Even though I was mostly invisible and felt like I had no value in the eyes of other people, he quickly became my best friend. To this day, I don’t even know why. Despite how different we were, we became really close.
But he was genuinely good-looking—basically HTN (if you’re familiar with Blackpill terminology). And I can tell you this: unless you’ve actually been around someone like that, especially if you’re an incel, you have no idea just how much stronger the halo effect is than people think.
People would approach him the moment they saw him, while I was always standing in the background just watching. We had the same personality. He was naturally quiet and very introverted, yet people constantly described him as confident, mysterious, and interesting.
As for girls… I don’t even know where to begin. This guy literally had some of the most attractive girls in the entire school wanting to sleep with him, and he barely paid any attention to them. Girls I couldn’t even imagine speaking to me in my wildest dreams were the same girls he rejected without a second thought.
A lot of people wondered how someone like him and someone like me could even be friends. One day, he was joking around with a girl, just being friendly like he always was. I tried to join the conversation and laugh with them, and the girl just looked at him and said, “Why is your ugly friend talking to us?”
I was completely embarrassed, so I quietly walked away.
Being friends with someone like him was probably the most blackpill experience I’ve ever had. It showed me, more than anything else, just how much looks seem to shape the way people treat you.
