Default Re: Dealing With Being Unattractive

[ QUOTE ]

Also, I've overhead girls talking and saying when they get to know people who aren't attractive at first impression, but have a good personality/made them laugh/are nice people ,they find them more attractive.. and vice versa for pretty boys who are dull and uninteresting.. I think this rings true b/c I definitely find some average looking girls way more attractive if they have a certain style/quirky/funny thing going on.. Then other girls who are gorgeous but uninteresting/not my type I don't really think about them twice (but I'll still look more than twice obv)

I remember having a discussion w/my old roommate about this. He believed that your opinions of how attractive someone is don't really change, but that it can be relatively easily trumped by a good personality/good character. I'm not sure where i stand-- my initial thoughts agree w/what you've said, but the counter point makes sense. i feel like i've experienced both cases to some degree.
