Is it true that you only attract people on your level in looks?

On the OP, maybe in your youth you focused a bit too much on the pure romance aspect of it all, that now that you appreciate/prefer other aspects of your potential partner, that you lost your sweet tooth? Or maybe you're just longing for what might have been... grass is always greener on the other side ;)
Yeah, I was too simple and less demanding during my younger years. Now, I have a clearer idea of what I look for in a man.

Not true for me.

 

I tend to either attract women who are VGL but insane, or who look like fat teenage boys. :(

 

It's enough to make me wish we could order clones as life partners.

Of course if you want to be in a committed, monogamous relationship, your only options will be guys who want to be in a committed, monogamous relationship with you...

 

Exactly. Also those women she's talking about would still be unhappy if they were able to trade in their boring husbands for hot guys...some people are just plain unhappy, empty inside, all they do is want want want and bitch bitch bitch, never realizing how good they really have it...

This really only happens if you are super fat or super skinny guy who is very shy, quiet, nerdy type...you have to make yourself look a bit more homogenous and be more ambitious. I make it a practice to dress well/smell good/be friendly and flirt with girls wherever I go, whether I'm in a relationship or not. You may surprise yourself if you give it a try.

Makes sense to me. Probably doesn't help that I'm a guy, so of course it's harder to tell where I generally stand.

 

I would have no problem attracting my equal in terms of appearance.. I've just never really attracted anyone in general, so how am I supposed to have an idea of whether or not I'm being delusional? I'm reluctant to even bother.

 

That's pretty much exactly how I feel...

At some point, I think we're just going to have to go for it.. Set our sights on someone we fancy or find alluring and just casually ask 'em if they want to hang out sometime and get to know each other a bit. We'll probably fail due to HOW we approach, so I wouldn't feel bad or try to negatively rationalize what happened if things go sour..

I always go for the ladies that attract me. That simple. I always seem to get the "hot" looking ladies to date me and I often wonder HOW THE HECK DID I MANAGE THIS? Lol!:)

 

I don't think much about whether I'm in their league or not. I've always been told that I am handsome. The more times I hear that, the more confident I am.

 

Anyway, go for what attracts you and let the fates respond.

Just goes to show that it's all subjective, and only objective to the extent of standard symmetry and proportion.. Neither of them are attractive to me, which isn't to say that they aren't attractive, but not universally.
Aesthetically, they're both attractive. But from an attraction perspective, if those pics are any indication of who they are, they're both trying way too hard. That guy heavily vibes compensating for something.

Yeah I've done that. The problem is it never works out.
