EVERY single one of a 28-year-old woman’s anecdotes centre on ardent men, jealous women or the sadness of only being appreciated for her stunning looks.
Sophie Rodriguez also has insights to share about the problems of being too wanted, how embarrassing it is receiving free champagne in bars and multiple stories about celebrities trying to pick her up.
She said: “My experiences are relatable. For example there’s the one about men being pests because I can’t go to a bar without being chatted up by a model and three hedge fund managers.
“And who doesn’t have to turn off notifications whenever they post a bikini shot on Insta because they get so many comments it drains their phone battery? Am I right, girls?
“I’ve got ones about how exhausting it is dating every night, about being completely inappropriately hit up by a modelling agency when I’m putting petrol in the car wearing a puffer coat, and a sexist taxi driver who let me off the fare because ‘you so beautiful’.
“Most recently I lost my good friend Tom because his new girlfriend said I was ‘irritating’, ‘self-obsessed’ and ‘deliberately flirting with him because of her’. So that’s an interesting story about women being insecure in their own skins that doesn’t centre on me at all.”
Colleague Julian Cook said: “I love Sophie’s anecdotes. No idea what they’re about, but you can stare at her while she tells them.”
