Hope Schwing, a 24-year-old TikToker from Los Angeles, California, is making news for declaring that she is too attractive for a relationship. She claims that guys are put off by her beauty and are hesitant to ask her out, but she is perfectly pleased with her independence.
In her TikTok video, the TikToker wrote: “Being incredibly hot is honestly a curse.”
The video showed the person looking depressed, and the accompanying caption stated, “No one talks about how hard it is to be literally so hot that you can’t get a boyfriend because all men are extremely intimidated by and scared of you.”
While Schwing later clarified that it was intended to be satirical, the sentiment clearly resonated with viewers, as evidenced by the comments.
According to reports, the influencer has no dating experience and has never been in a meaningful relationship.
People commented on her TikTok after it received over 3.7 million views, with one saying, “The way you said this was satire, but it’s not… I literally believe this is true for me.”
Olivia, another TikToker, agreed: “This isn’t satire, but it’s relatable.”
Mathew confirmed, “You’re absolutely right.”
User Taylor also commented: “Convincing myself this is why I’m single.”
Schwing, on the other hand, emphasised that she is fully satisfied with herself.
In an interview with NeedToKnow.online, the comic influencer stated that while making jokes about hate being single, they are fine to remain single for as long as necessary: “I make jokes about being single and how much I despise it, but I’m perfectly content to be single for as long as I need to be.” I don’t mean what I say in the video about being overly intimidating and heated. I’ve noticed a pattern among women expressing these things to justify their single status.”
“It’s a more empowering – albeit possibly false – way of hyping ourselves up and making light of being chronically single.”
“I’ve been told and heard women say they’re single because ‘the guy wants to be the hot one’ or ‘I’m too hot, I’m intimidating him and scaring him away’ – just funny satirical stuff like that.” “I thought it was pretty clear in my video that it was satire and me being existential and dramatic, but that clearly wasn’t delivered.”
“The strange thing is, ladies commenting are saying, “This isn’t satire, it’s relevant” or “genuine.” Men, on the other hand, are essentially burning me, calling me ugly and acting irrationally.”
A TikTok comment read, “Especially when you have a personality and standards too and they can’t match it all.”
A user agreed it’s “a blessing & a curse”.
Another joked, “I’m gonna believe this is true about myself bc any other explanation will be my last straw.”
The stunning TikToker confessed that she has never been in a meaningful relationship, with the exception of a month-long puppy love in early high school.
“I don’t have a ton of experience dating because I don’t have an urgency to date. I’m a busy gal and I think when it’s time for me to date, it’ll come to me, I don’t think I’ll be the one chasing it. Being I’ve been independent my whole life, I’m used to being single. In LA, dating is nearly impossible it seems. Everyone is busy or just not ready for commitment, which I totally understand,” said Schwing.
