| i'm an average looking guy and this thread just depresses the sh*t out of me. to just know that i'll never get the pleasures that await the super handsome men out there makes me question what's the point of trying... i'll only get second best. |
This is something most women realize in middle school. Someone is always richer or better looking or smarter than we are. |
| Only handsome men in DC seem to be gay. I'm married so that's not a problem for me. |
Oh i realized it in high school. been depressed about it since. |

I don’t think I’m handsome but I’m tall and well-built, and strange women come up to me in public and run their hands over my shoulders and biceps.
(Sob) so degrading to be treated like a piece of meat! |
| I enjoy a woman looking at me like she’s a lioness, ready to pounce on me like I’m a piece of meat. I’ve been groped ion more than one occasion and it doesn’t phase me. |
Welcome to the world of most women. It was painful to notice and realized this in high school and college. It was glaringly obvious all of my twenties and when people had relationships and started getting married. I attended one of the ivies, and all the guys would first choose based on the girl's physical attractiveness first. They wanted smart or smart enough, but not if the girl wasn't pretty first. |

I think so but research says it's not true. But James Dean, Marlon Brando, Rock Hudson, Brandon Flynn, Matt Dallas, Luke Macfarlane, the AA guy on Queer Eye, George Clooney plus a zillion more closeted. |
Ha ha. Are you serious? Even if you're pretty as a woman, it is constant pressure to stay skinny, wrinkle-free, attractive. Pressure until the grave. |
Yes! Look at how they focused on Hillary’s looks instead of accomplishments, or Elizabeth Warren’s skin. Then, look at Trump. Would a woman that ugly and awful get elected? |
You need to man up. I’m an average looking guy but I’ve got intelligence, a sense of humor, I’m not a jerk and I know which fork to use. In my dating years I never had a problem meeting and dating very attractive women. For both men and women being attractive is more than just a pretty face. My wife once told me that she briefly dated a guy who was drop dead gorgeous but she quickly realized he had the personality and intelligence of a turnip. |
I was in the same boat as you. Hit the weights and eat a lot. You’d be surprised what muscles and a good haircut/good fitting clothes do for your odds. I went from invisible to women in bars putting their hands on you as they walk by. |
| I am a very average looking guy with no shortage of women who want to hang out and have sex with me. I thanked my parents for many years of guitar and vocal lessons. |
+1 Then, there are those women who peaked in high school, yet can't seem to move on (stunted), and still think they are "hot"- when they are quite obviously lacking in personality (which used to be overlooked). Except, now they aren't getting any better looking, because their looks already peaked - and BOY are they mad. No personality, lesser looks, and taking a back seat to the new bubbly neighbor brings women like that down fast, but not fast enough. If only they realize how stunted they are, and how they have to make their own way - no one is going to do that for them, they have to own their own sh&t. |
