I've had much more relationship success with average-to-pretty girls than I have with hot girls.

To get penetrated yes long term relationship is the hard part for the 5's

 

 

BS! I was married by the time I was 22, and that was by the 4th guy to propose marriage to me.

 

.....wait a minute....

 

But I'm divorced now, though, so maybe you are onto something....

If you're pretty or beautiful, people tend to tell you lol.

 

However, some people do just cause they love you or want something from you, so that's not the 100% best indicator.

 

There's all different kids of beauty. Beauty comes in all different colors and sizes, and personality can make someone beautiful too!

 

I'm cute sometimes and am beautiful when I'm made up and in good physical shape lol. However, there are times I am not cute, and some of those times, I don't care! Even nature isn't beautiful all the time (when the trees are bare of leaves or ice/snow, they're not all that gorgeous, but when they blossom, and when they sprout little leaves, and when they are full green, and when their leaves change colors, and when they are all iced or snowed up, they are beautiful, just in different ways.) :)

 

The times I am approached are the times when I look my best and when my clothes are nice/flattering. When I wear baggy jeans and big sweaters/hoodies and am not made-up, I'm not approached, and would really rather not be approached either, and I DO NOT WANT my picture taken in such a state either. :p (which I've had to make clear to some of my clueless guy friends lol)

So what puts a guy in the 7+ range, out of curiosity? :p

 

Sometimes I genuinely have no idea where to put myself on that numeric spectrum.

 

  • be well-groomed.
  • dress well; stylish; clothes that fit (amazes me how most men don't get this).
  • be height-weight proportional.
  • smile, engage those around you, and stand like you mean it (good/confident posture).

 

of course this is just surface stuff. the above won't matter if you're dumb as balls when you open your mouth.

Many women dress down so they are left alone.

Very good list.

most people have their eyes and attention glued to their cell phones so you never really can tell if they are attractive and it definitely makes one less approachable.

I do that if I'm approached by someone I'm not attracted to. Works like a charm. :laugh:

I honestly think the trick to this, if you're female, is to not give a crap. I feel like I trick a lot of guys into thinking I'm hot stuff just by not caring whether or not they find me attractive. I think this must be unconscionably appealing to men and is probably the ONLY reason I get approached by anyone. :p

True. Some do that on purpose.

 

Some women however are like evergreen trees or palm trees in that no matter what they wear or don't wear, they are beautiful, but that is the rarity for both and women, not the norm. Even some drop dead gorgeous models/singers/actresses are not beautiful all the time, though many are (hence why they make it in the entertainment, physical appearance demanding industries.)

 

Many women however who understand how guys adore beauty, don't leave the house until their hair is perfect and their face is all made-up, and they're wearing a hot outfit. Women spend hours to attain this look, as well as do body maintenance like working out, getting manicures, hair cuts, and tans. Other women it seems don't understand that, and others don't care.

 

Guys tend to have it easier in getting ready. :p I get envious of some of my friends who are guys. They just wake up and in 10 minutes, are showered, teeth brushed, dressed, and ready to go! In order to go camping with these guys, taking 2 hours getting ready isn't going to cut it. Since none of them are romantically involved with me, that's ok. However, it's different if one was, because I wouldn't want him to see me without being all prettied up :p

That only works if you're a guy. Women respond to being aloof, men don't.

I have NEVER relied on my looks.

 

However, I know I can charm the pants off of anyone if I wanted.

that certainly works on me, i know it, and i'm certainly fine with it. i love women who exude that particular quiet confidence :love:

 

of course it also has to come off that way in how we interact or the charade is over.

Yes, that's a good way to put it. Girls can just be super charming and that'll work wonders!

You're also the exception, not the rule. I never responded to a girl being aloof. That turned me off if anything.

You know, when I first moved here, I got approached by men a lot. In the sense that they would stop me on the street or on the subway to ask me out. But seriously, that was only the first year I lived in NYC. After that year, nothing like that ever happened again.

 

So, I've either aged really badly, or something else has changed.

Well, I didn't say aloof. You said aloof. I'm charming and friendly. Not aloof. But I'm not in the least self conscience about my looks. I actually quite like the way I look, despite the fact that I'm nothing really to write home about. If could, I wouldn't mind being a couple of inches taller, but other than that, I feel like I'm perfect just the way I am. And if a guy isn't attracted to me, it is seriously no skin of my nose. I think being an average looking girl is easy and fun. A lot of really beautiful girls are miserable.

I feel like NYC completely changes newcomers after a year's worth of residence. :p I've lived here almost a year now and I feel, look, and act totally different than I did coming in.

I moved to NYC from Montréal and there's not much of a difference. For a woman, dating in a big city is not difficult.

If you have truly have no idea, I'd suggest you work on increasing your yearly income then...where you fall will be of no matter ;)
