"When a beautiful woman is in a relationship with an ugly guy it’s not always that she’s after money, right? Sometimes, that’s her type of guy or she’s not after looks but love and connection, am I right?
"I’ve got this very beautiful friend she doesn’t date pretty guys she says they turn her off. The uglier you are the more she wants you."
Soon, Saffas shared their two cents' worth on the topic. Some relayed their own experiences while others took the opportunity to air other people's dirty laundry.

"Yep. My cousin was dating an okay-looking gent compared to her (don't like labelling people as ugly) and he was a teacher dololo zaka (with no money).
"She said she loved him, not his looks. Sadly, after three years of dating, it turned out nikka was busy paying lobola for someone else. But, yeah, she liked him."
@KabeloBannister noted:
"That's me. Good-looking guys turn me off. You might not be cute and be broke, I will still be crazy about you. It's all about connection. Hence, I am still single."

"I thought it's because good-looking gents are also SBWL'ed (wanted) in the dating market and she doesn't want to share or deal with other huns throwing themselves at him."
@keke_kaykay2 said
"I actually have friends who don't date good-looking guys. I don't get it but they are so adamant about it [that] I've stopped trying to understand."
