I think you’re a good example of that, Erik. :)
Too bad some people can't seem to get that the opposite is true as well..... aww,... tnx fleuron! ;) | |

| attractiveness difference Posted: 7/10/2012 4:35:16 PM | I am over thirty and think that it does no harm to aim high, I have a lot of qualities that make up for not looking like adonis. I think that making a girl laugh and listing to them instead of just boring them with lame stories, can get them to say those three little word's, us men love to hear, "Stay till breakfast" LOL. I have never had a problem getting a date, Touch wood!, If there is a special girl u have ur eye on, get in there and ask her out for a drink as u only live once. | |

| attractiveness difference Posted: 7/11/2012 7:07:52 AM | ^^ This is where travel can help. Also, a background in the remodeling trades (light carpentry, painting and so forth) can shine light on how people do live. Probably the hospitality industry as well.
Factory work: no. That teaches you common sense, and street smarts. | |

Interesting point. About 40 years ago, when I was in college, I sold Kirby vacuum cleaners door-to-door for a while. Such experiences will really open your eyes. | |

| attractiveness difference Posted: 7/11/2012 9:57:41 AM | | 92 I go 60-90 min 5 days a week. Im going to start swimming the other 2 days. The gym has done wonders for my self esteem. My thing is people overestimate their attractiveness level. I am guilty of this but Im working to put myself into the area of what kind of men I go for instead of just ****ing about it | |

Exactly! Its all about self esteem. I have dated good looking women, and absolutely gorgeous women! I hear guys ask "how do you get a date with all those beautiful ladies?" My answer; "I ask!" Whats the worst that can happen? she says no? Ok, no biggie. | |

Come on guys. Don't be so simple minded. 30 is your prime. It's all down hill from now on. LOL The women in your age range are still good looking. But that will change. And so will you. Once you lose your looks, all the self esteem in the world isn't going to help you. paleasssssse! the older i get,... the more girls hit on me,... and the younger they get,.. you're doing something wrong! :P | |

| attractiveness difference Posted: 7/11/2012 4:41:57 PM | Domo: That's good. It is a confidence booster, and you feel a hell of a lot better about yourself. I do a hell of a lot of running and ruck marches. I went to Airborne school and messed up my leg on the 2nd jump. lol I am scheduled to go back in october. Hell, I don't think i'm that atractive, but I keep myself ready for anything. Good thing is this summer is a busy one, so i'm going to be in the field a lot till september and might be here for another deployment. | |

| attractiveness difference Posted: 7/11/2012 6:23:53 PM | | Idk, I like girls closer to my age,... I think we have more in common,...It's a cool ego booster when younger girls like you and all, but i'm looking for something long term, and i'm gunna take my time and find someone,... might not be on here, but i'll find her ;) ,... I feel that 92guy, i have a titanium implant thanks to the army,... I'm finally back to running 2-5 miles per day,... but i can only do it on an elliptical,... the implant is in my ankle, so it makes running with impact impossible! Hope you have fun in the army,.. i know i had a blast ;) lol | |

She has said she loves military guys and you seem to like each other. | |

But yoga provides a good mix for me.
As to the topic, it's interesting.. some people choose others they perceive as more attractive, while others choose those less so.. makes you wonder. | |

Rite,... but one thing i've learned in life is that everyone's different, and looks don't always play a role in whether a person is good, or bad, happy, or sad... everyone is different, and they see through their own point of view,.... its not that easy to truly put yourself in someone else's shoes, and see what they see,... nor is it easy to convince them to look at it in a different point of view,... i sold cars for a few years, and i've seen soOo many different types of personalities,... i think that's why i like girls that have great ones,... but for every relationship to be perfect, you need the sun and the stars to align just right,... and then you need patients, and understanding,... with the ability to stay in there for the long haul, and talk things out,... i guess i'm super bored tonight, cause this is super off topic.... lol | |

That doesn't seem like cawk blawking to me Group hug? Well isn't that what this site is about? Getting two equally attractive strangers in the night together? Just trying to help. I would love to see certain people finally off this site with the love they seek.  | |

| attractiveness difference Posted: 7/11/2012 7:04:33 PM | Erik:
you need the sun and the stars to align just right,... And lightening to strike?
My point was that some choose those they find more attractive than them (regardless of how others may perceive it) and some choose those who seem less so (again, to them). To me that is intriguing.. what would be the characteristic to cause it to swing either way?
To me, at its base.. it's about power. But that is of course, Jmo. | |

Some ppl like to control, others like being controlled, and some like a little of both, or neither,... Back to everyone being different, i guess you gotta find out what you want, and find the opposite, or possibly the same personality depending on where you fall,... lol | |

Eric
I'm not surprised. Women in their 20s are looking for a husband. You're in their age range.
You're 32. You got maybe 3 - 5 years left before they start calling you old. Trust me. You'll be lucky to get a peck on the cheek from the 20 year olds.
With respect, whilst that may have been your experience, I doubt it will be Erik's... | |

No amount of self esteem or self confidence or self love or going to the gym is going to change that fact. One day the low hanging fruit will be gone.
That's a very pessimistic outlook, my friend. No one ever 'loses' their looks, they simply change and become attractive to a different age range.....unless we are still talking about 20-somethings. | |

Erik’s words coming out of a physically unattractive man would MAKE him attractive to me. He has a terrific attitude and is obviously a sweetheart.
Your words coming out of Ryan Reynolds’s mouth would make Ryan unattractive to me.
And that’s saying a LOT. | |

Funny you should say that. I'm attracted to women close to your age too. LOL 27-37
Anyways, you're not going to stay 32 for the rest of your life. No amount of self esteem or self confidence or self love or going to the gym is going to change that fact. One day the low hanging fruit will be gone. Go for what ever floats your boat,... I've always been attracted to my age range,... I think I'll be all the more happy about it later in life,... I'm not saying anyone should have all my likes,... just be a little more positive about yourself,... like i said before, if you don't like you, then why should anyone else,... and if that's your age range, man you better start taking some confidence pills, and do some sole searching,... find out all the stuff you don't like, mentally, and work on that, and amp up your good stuff, and have fun doing it! ;P | |

| attractiveness difference Posted: 7/12/2012 9:47:59 PM | Lie!
Men around my age are not so confident, however we learned we have to project confidence to have a chance. Im not the best looking, and if i admit that, you would look for the "super alpha" and leave the beta behind, and as a beta, i have learned alphas always think they are the s-hit.
This is more an issue of alpha vs beta, introvert vs extrovert, type a vs type b and not about "men".
I have seen a lot of women who are dog ugly say in a mean overtone "Im beautiful" and i wanted to puke.
About the balding ugly guy - he probably was an alpha in his youth, and his mentality never matured with his body so in his brain he is probably 19 - pay attention to "signals" and you will observe this.
I am an introverted, lifelong beta and every time i see "other guys" i wonder what they have that i don't, and many other guys like me feel the same.
So, sometimes we have to pretend to be someone we are not in order to get our foot in the door, it's like lying on a job application. If you tell the truth and know that telling the truth will result in a no-hire but an up-front lie will allow you to sell yourself in, who cares if your caught later. you tell your next employer that you learned from your mistake but your other option was to flip burgers - and most people i hope would understand that. Personally, i believe that people who make rules are actually making policies that prevent others from being as successful as the rule-maker. This can be observed in college writing and speeches - your not supposed to use fallacies, or present false statistics or ad hominem attacks - because it is "unethical". Look at your best and richest PR speakers, and politicians - the people who succeeded don't want to be replaced so they make rules to keep others down.
So the beta males see the alphas have already made the rules and all we can do is play by that rule set or sit down.
I know my answer will not satisfy you - but i hope you ARE satisfied to understand why people feel a need to be better than they really are. | |
