I was gonna add on, but its been said. It matters most online. In real life, there are equalizers that can make a person who didn't initially find you attractive reverse their position.

One of the most attractive young women I ever knew wasn't attractive to me for months until she smiled at one of my jokes. I instantly saw another her in a different light and pursued.

No, it didn't work out, but the fact is, she had a great body and a nice face, but none of that spoke to me until she gave me a genuine ear-to-ear smile. The effect wouldn't come across the same online.

Confidence matters A LOT more than looks it jus so happens that as fars as the dating game goes for a lot of ppl both of thoae r interconnected, unfortrunately. Ppl dont kno they worth. Once u feel 100% confortable with ur whole being, the world literally becomes urs :wow:

This.

But I will say if you are an ugly nikka with game/a lot of great personality, it will take you far. I have friends and family who are attractive and only date ugly nikkas. Almost like they are afraid of actually dating attractive men (who will give them "competition") or maybe men who are aware they are attractive. I see ugly nikkas with women every single day.

Same. You'd think this shyt was a myth with the way people are always quick dismiss it.

These dudes aren't anywhere close to being rich. They're just comfortable with themselves and are often a joy to be around. Most women have no choice but to be sucked into their reality the longer they get to know them.

Yes and no.


Looks are a gateway drug. If you like what you see you open yourself to the possibility of seeing more qualities.

That 80/20 rule. 80% of initial dating is looks based 20% is oersonality. Of course making a relationship work is the opposite

Looks are very important. But money can compensate for any deficiencies you have in that department.

I think your are too optimistic, much of the time the ugly dudes dont even have great personalities, average ones at best, what they elicit is comfort and stability, attractive dudes create attraction, but not comfort or stability. Men are judged differently and have different expectations on the basis of their apparent value, for instance, a confident as fukk male model needs to demonstrate his confidence differently than a ugly male, because the model will be closer to being written off as arrogant, due to the fact his confidence will be assumed to come from his appearance.

So no, alot of times the average/ ugly guy doesnt win because of his "personality", thats just a guise people tell themselves to mask they fact that they preselect for different purposes.

Me too. They're not even ugly pretty nikkas. They're ugly and dusty. I swear I can't be seen in public with some people because they're so unattractive they bring down my value. LOL most of them are dating.

I am at the game but I just remember when I used to be online dating if I felt like looks were the only thing that matters then people would know if they want to date you or not based off of your profile picture

, does this still hold true
No. If a girl is actually genuine, sweet, has her shyt together and we have stuff in common it's straight if she slightly above average looks wise. She just gotta have a nice body.

Slightly, she at least gotta be decent... Since Ive gotten older I look at strength & personality... I want a woman that can take charge, a matriarch that can lead in my absence... A beautiful stupid bytch is worthless to me... My kids deserve better...
