Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, true...but tell me how many "hot" people you've met who were total jerks and seemed ugly afterwards?

It's all a matter of personal choice, I know, but why should people knock those who want to get to know others for what's on the inside? Beauty fades, personality lasts forever. :o)


Well said

Im not saying that all women on this site do it, but I can say that from my experience I have seen it to many times, a woman says she is looking for "the nice caring sensitive guy" and then when you give them that they either realise they don't want that or are just scared off by your hideous looks, why? same goes for guys really to be fair, if you want a girl who would treat you right and not cheat on you... why do you go for looks first, if a girl is "ugly" or "fat" you just blow her off... How is anything dating wise supose to work in a screwed up world like that...


It is just my opinion but I think maybe you are making sweeping generalizations that are not neccesarily true.

At your age your experiences are still quite limited. While you may have awaken to a slightly more realistic view of people you have a ways to go.

Attraction is really more about how a person is percieved. I take just about any magazine of the so called "beautiful" people and most of them have some "issue" that in the strictest sense or definition they aren't.

I believe a lot of it is the vibe you give off. Is it closed, tense, distant, defensive? Or open, relaxed, engageing, and huggable. I read your text and I get a completely different vibe of who you are than what your picture projects. I don't know for sure how a younger woman would relate to your picture but to me it doesn't do anything for you. It's like you don't even want to introduce yourself to the camera much less a woman. No smile, hostile folded arms, kind of grungy looking clothes in a dark depressing background. Your hair and facial hair seem like an after thought. If that is typical I would give you the benifit of the doubt that it is just trying to be yourself and not draw attention to yourself but that doesn't work real well in trying to be noticed for a date. Even great looking guys have to spiff it up a little and be engageing or they come off as snobs.

Girls generally want a guy with a career not a couple of low paying part-time jobs. It isn't selfish not to want to live hand to mouth and see your children do without while you and your mate struggle to keep from going under. If you don't mention you are working for beter as a young man you look like a slacker.

There was a lot of talk about preference but some guys just don't get it is some times about looks. Some gals want blonde some want brunette and others want a red head. Maybe they like long hair others short. There are a hundred reason someone will accept or pass on your looks and it isn't right or wrong.
This is EXACTLY the crtitcism I needed, harsh but true, after you said it I looked and realised I only have the one picture up, and I don't include every detail about my life and maybe if I opened up a little more, more people would be open to actually having a conversation with me, in all honesty no sarcasm thanks, I seriously didn't even realise I only had one picture up!

Only if you are one of the sheeple who allow the media to dictate how you live your life.

why would i date someone that im not physiaclly attracted to? That is just setting myself up for a failed relationship. Why is it that you feel attraction means that the person has to have mental flaws? you can find someone thats attractive and nice, why settle?

I so agree with you!

Nope. I have had this towel for a while now.

The Hitchhiker's Guide told me I needed one.

something that ticks me off sometimes though i mean i know every one has standards and what not.. why is it sometimes i might try to talk to girls who are like in shape well put together and they blow me off?? but then its like i walk away and there's some dude fatter and like unglier than me has like a girl who looks like a dallas cowboy cheerleader. sometimes that gets me ticked off becuase i just dont understand it...


first off, define 'fat'

secondly, define 'ugly'

are you so wonderful that you can call another fat or ugly? it's guys with attitudes like this that i'd never bother to date (regardless of what their outer shell looks like).

and why are YOU only talking to girls that you think are 'in shape'? yet you're moaning about how the 'fat and ugly' guys get the pretty and sexy girls.

maybe that hot dallas cowboy cheerleader is looking at her 'fat and ugly' boyfriend and just seeing hunky and sexy.

GOD I HATE IT WHEN A WOMAN WEARS A BLACK BRA UNDER A WHITE SHIRT WHAT THE HELL IS THAT???????


Not a bra and it is outlined in hot pink. and its white pants you are not supposed to wear black underwear under white pants not shirts. Black under a see through shirt to keep everything hidden underneath is okay and an illusion!!

Women are soooo judgmental..... I'd rather not have an ugly dye job, but that's just me!! OMG, I hate it when the roots show..... (Just an example of nasty, insecure judgmental women that cant think by themselves and must be led like cattle to the slaughter following their little fashion codes sooooo strictly and with no imagination), LMAO

I'm still happy to know that "ALL" women who want a "nice, caring sensitive man" just want him to tap it for the evening. This gives me hope should I become single again, and decide that manwhoring is the way to go. I will score seven days a week. Might better invest in some viagra huh?bigsmile laugh laugh
