[quote=Anonymous]I think it depends on the kind of attractive.

I'm attractive but not in a welcoming way, I think. I'm tall and have angular (and very symmetrical) features. I feel like my looks make people stay away. I often have to work hard to convince people I'm actually very warm! A lot of my friends have told me that when they met me they thought I was a snob but now they see I'm not like that at all. I think I just look like a snob. I look like the mean American woman who tries to steal Colin Firth from Bridget Jones! Oh well.

I know one woman who actually kind of is a snob, but people never think of her that way. She is very pretty but in a very different way from me. She is very short and has childlike features -- big eyes and forehead. I think people assume she's sweet and kind because she looks a little like a doll or a child. My personal experience is that she's kind of stuck up and sometimes not very nice.

People assume a lot about you from how you look. Sometimes it's accurate but often it's not. That's why I try not to judge people until I know them well enough to have some experience. I try to base my assessments of people, and decide who I will spend time and energy on, based on concrete experience and not first impressions. It works for me.
