well the issue is that you have to pick a person to go for in the beginning. most people choose that based on outward appearance since it’s really the only thing you can see without getting to sit down and take the time to truly know the person. attractiveness usually isn’t the main thing to get someone into relationships, but it’s the thing to get them considered in the first place, yk?
that’s just not what i’m saying,, we agree that looks aren’t the thing to actually get a date; it’s personality. but in order for someone to want to get to know you, they have to decide that they want to get to know you. and generally, they make that decision through a split second decision heavily influenced by outward appearance. all i’m saying is that simply being yourself isn’t necessarily always enough to guarantee the right people falling for you.
i don’t appreciate you deleting your comments, but i’ll still respond to what you said. of course being yourself has nothing to do with your looks, but it does have something to do with attracting other people which IS the point of the original post. yeah, it’s shallow but that’s just how the biological wiring works in more or less every single animal ever. it’s not the most important thing, but it’s what people see at first and first impressions are important.
You’d rather be fake to get a woman to like you than be yourself? Bc why all of a sudden it’s all about looks. I’ve dated men that aren’t the most attractive to anyone else and it’s been fine when they approached me bc they did it respectfully and I enjoyed the conversation. So you can’t say looks are the deciding factor to if you’ll get interest or not by every girl
no one said anything about being fake, and don’t say all of a sudden it’s about looks it’s always been about looks. if something looks cooler or whatever you’re more inclined to pick that thing if you don’t know much about it. now as for my statement looks are NOT everything, as proven by you bc you said you’ve dated men that aren’t the most attractive to anyone. HOWEVER, they are important. did you find those men attractive or did you just date them bc why the fuck not?
