| it's all about the looks Posted: 4/15/2005 9:55:42 PM | Um, my first reason for starting a relationship is not based on looks. So that's one person.
Mostly I would look at their spelling. | |

| it's all about the looks Posted: 4/15/2005 11:34:10 PM | lol bet of a late replay on this message...but its not true. Not all men do like barbie dolls. I am not gonna lie. Obviously you have to be physically attracted in some way to some one your interested in. But in defense in "some men" there are those who actually put the effort into knowing that they are not "man hores" I would like to say cheer o!.  | |

| A girl has needs and you're a good looking guy. Posted: 4/18/2005 9:51:50 AM |
I'm willing to bet that a high portion of people on here complaining about how shallow everyone else is are just as shallow themselves. Admit it, regardless of how you look yourself, you're all looking for "the handsome, young, rich f***** prince".
So, when girls are complaining "oh look at me, I don't pick up" you're really talking about picking up the HOT guys, not the average joe who is craving attention just like you are. WAKE THE HELL UP AND DON'T CRY ON MY SHOULDER!
There have been periods of my life where I was much more of a duckling than a swan (e.g.: puberty) and NEVER EVER has any girl showed interest in getting to know my personality GOD DAMMIT! Quite to the contrary, the way I have been treated so far in relationships is much more as a sexual object than anything else. A girl I dated recently expressed it best. When I was slightly mispleased with the way I was treated, she responded: "A girl has needs and you're a good looking guy". She wasn't all that attractive herself and no, it didn't make my day.
no offence, hun, but that's just bullsh*t.
Beautiful people are usually conceited ***holes looking for a fawning groupie to feed their egos.
TRULY beautiful people never feel they are beautiful, and end up alone for long periods of time.
I would, and have always wanted, to be with someone who I can talk to, cuddle with, watch a movie on the couch with, walk around with, randomly start dancing in the street with or any other asinine, yet liberating actions that either he or I feel the need to do at any given point in time. Looks just don't really come into play.
I actually FOUND someone like that here on POF, if you can believe it.
I feel bad that you ran into females that were so wrapped up inthemselves that they were one of the above mentioned "beautiful people", but by buying into that philosophy, aren't you perpetuating the cruel cycle? | |

| A girl has needs and you're a good looking guy. Posted: 4/21/2005 8:01:57 AM | | I think looks do matter to a certain extent. Like someone else said, "looks are the reason most people start up a relationship." My boyfriend, yeah he is a cute one, but he's nowhere near perfect. But I can't be with someone if I'm not sexually attacted to them. I mean, how can you be with someone intimatly if their looks digust you or it's just not there? Not trying to be too blunt or anything, but it's true. Once you've met someone you like as far as looks wise, then you focus on their personality. I believe though, that someone out there thinks you look cute or even hot, even if you don't know it. There's someone for everyone. | |

| A girl has needs and you're a good looking guy. Posted: 4/23/2005 5:06:13 PM | Ok not all beautifull people are stuck up... there are alot of superficial people out there.. but to say every good looking person bases all there self worth on there looks is ignorant. And truely beautifull people can know they are but they can also know that they have alot of inner beauty and have much more then there looks to offer. I think beauty and good looking is two diff things all together anyways.. with females its hard to know anyways ex..fake hair, nails, eye color, boobs.... A beautifull person to me is someone who believes they are beautifull... inside and out | |

| A girl has needs and you're a good looking guy. Posted: 5/3/2005 12:02:45 PM | chris--you gotta have more confidence in yourself than that, sweetie!!
I spent a long time chasing guys that were "hot", and while there were a couple of nice ones in the bunch, a majority of them were extremely arrogant and annoying. My ex of almost 9 years is beautiful, but he's a completely self-absorbed jackass. I'd rather stick my finger in a light socket than be with someone like him again. I'd rather find someone I'm attracted to that isn't "model material" and then fall in love with his charm, personality, and cute quirks. I don't want a man for me to "flaunt" because he's so attractive. I want a man that will show me PDA and have other women get jealous over how sweet he is. I'm NOT saying looks don't matter. They matter (or don't matter) to the individual. YOU, not the rest of the world, have to be attracted to a specific person. You can find someone beautiful that your best friend could think is ugly as hell. It depends on your tastes and what you consider attractive.
Unfortunately, there is too much emphasis on dress size, measurements, height, etc. I, for one, like taller men (5'10" +)...not because that's society's ideal for a man...but because I like to feel protected, and when I hug him, I like to rest my head on his chest. Could I fall for someone that's my height? Probably. But, it hasn't happened that way...it's a personal preference. I'm 5'6", and just because I'm not a size 2 or 4 (I'm a size 12/14 and not afraid to admit it), I am not considered "healthy" or "attractive"? I think I'm a reasonably attractive person, I'm pretty damn healthy, so if some man doesn't like me because of my size, he can keep on walking...but he's missing out on one awesome chick!

| A girl has needs and you're a good looking guy. Posted: 5/4/2005 11:02:46 AM | chris ~ I've learned from experience not to base my happiness and self-esteem on relationships gone wrong. I've had one of the worst relationships anyone could ever have, but I stuck it out because I loved him. Over time, that love faded because of the way he treated me. I still have feelings for him...and it hurts that things didn't work out. But, why sit here and cry about it when I know there's someone better for me out there? I'll find someone else that will treat me soooo much better than he ever did. And all the happiness that I'll feel then will make up for all the heartache I was ever put thru.
You just gotta keep a positive outlook, Hon. Past relationships are just that...past relationships. Look to your future; get excited about how you'll feel when you finally find "the one".  | |

| it's all about the looks Posted: 5/5/2005 2:46:07 AM | | That's why I only have this 1 pic on here ... it's a horrible picture but if a girl looks past that then I know it's based on more than just looks | |

| it's all about the looks Posted: 6/19/2005 5:26:26 PM | | ok let me start off by saying i use to live in wickenburg az and i am a average looking person. ialways look in a persons eyes to tell what thier heart is saying . i have read on here that looks are some what important that is a bunch of shit .if the world would look in the eyes of others we would see all of the pain that the good looking have caused the rest of us. just in case some of you are wondering who im am . i am jeremy burtlow burtlow and i have dated ruth johnson, messlisa mesa, and some other i cant remeber thier names right off hand. i moved there in the 8th grade and i made some popler kids see what a person is like on the inside instead of the outside. | |

Sure I am not that great looking but I havea great job, a car, a roof over my head, a sense of humour, and when we go out -- she will never have to dig into their wallet. But looks are too important to women, then a guy knowing how to treat a woman right | |

| it's all about the looks Posted: 6/20/2005 7:26:26 AM | | If you don't find someone sexually attractive, you're not likely to pursue them out of a crowd of strangers. If you've known someone for years that's a really wonderful person, they start to look better to you, because you see the inner beauty at that point. But random guys and random girls will always be based on looks first. I can't see how sweet or how much of a rotten **** you are before I see what you look like. And no, profiles without pictures don't count. Come to think of it, I don't really even look for women on this site--I prefer to spread the brutally honest truth instead. And it's fun. Really. | |

| it's all about the looks Posted: 6/20/2005 1:45:51 PM | If you look at magazine covers, tv shows, any kind of modeling, heck even the RATE PEOPLE section of this site, it all points to LOOKS...nature uses looks too.  | |

| A girl has needs and you're a good looking guy Posted: 2/4/2006 7:41:20 PM | Im definatly in agreeance with you libby, most people who are beautiful are lonley for long periods of time (though i have no idea why) but what is beauty??? Someone elses image?! I think not! I find myself alone for a long time, but does that make me pretty? ( I dont think so) but thats only my image...If you ask me people should delve deeper into someone other that appearances because you could be ignoring a truly great person...EXE:
I wear an old key around my neck to remind my self to find that someone special (key to my heart), I had told someone that I was interest in about it and she said "how romantic, but its not a key to a BMW"
So definatly I think some people should look a bit deeper than the skin sometimes. | |
