+607 Even though you know it's morally wrong, you always feel slightly reassured whenever you see a really unattractive couple because it makes you believe that if they found true love, then surely you can, amirite?

That's terrible self esteem. You shouldn't have to look around to realize you'll find someone true for you. It's not about looks or any of that, it's your personality that counts. I for one am fairly good looking (actually I'm really good looking) but for the sake of being modest and this post, I've scored with women 10 years older than me who look like models. I for one happen to be very charismatic (apparently)

Yeah, I see modesty is one of your strong suits.

What? I did it for the benefit of the op, so they can rest assured there is someone out there for them, who doesn't care about their looks.

It's got nothing to do with morals- it's just really shallow and kind of mean. You should also remind yourself when you see those couples that they don't think of each other as unattractive- that's just your opinion and it means exactly nothing to them- and they may have just as much pity for you as an unattractive(in their opinion) single person and wonder if you'll ever find someone who'd be attracted to *you*.

Oh please, anything but this pitiful argument. The op is shallow no question about that, but op is obviously talking about someone who people generally find unattractive. Sure there's no one who everyone will think is hot or ugly, but there are people who a lot of people think are hot or really ugly.

I think you would be suprised how much people's tastes vary- I mentioned Steve Buscemi as an "ugly actor" on another post one time and someone was like "he's ugly?"... I ended up feeling kind of bad. Attractiveness is purely a matter of opinion, on a personal level- what the media tells us is attractive is ultimately pretty irrelevant.

No, no, no. That is definitely not the case. You can't even deny this fact, or down play it as an opinion. I can't even argue with this. Look at this guy, would you say he's unattractive? I would probably go gay for him... http://gossip.whyfame.com/files/2010/07/cristiano_ronaldo.jpg http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_L-B91zpocWg/SkWUmvlfR8I/AAAAAAAAABc/SZwC4xzua2I/s400/cristiano-ronaldo-sportsbook-bonus.jpg http://www.virginmedia.com/images/cristiano-ronaldo-413x413.jpg as apposed to this guy http://www.philippineriddles.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/ugly_man.jpg Who has a better chance at getting girls?

Haha I do feel bad about making this post. I don't mean it in a mean way, although that also sounds shallow and just rather hypocritical of me. But I figured it was one of those things that most (not all, but most) people do, regardless of whether they like to admit it or not. No offense was meant!

I think you misunderstand; I'm well aware the world has plenty of shallow media whores. Being famous automatically makes someone more attractive to people who are into that kind of thing. What you're not getting is not everyone is like that- it's not even a huge majority. Also, just because someone agrees with you about the attractiveness of one person doesn't mean they wouldn't disagree about another. I'm sure you think everyone really thinks like you, and they're just not being honest- but you're wrong. Some people really do have minds of their own, and higher standards than pretty but typical packaging.

I do realize that not everyone thinks like me, but there are a lot of people who do. I know there are also a lot of people who want to find someone who has a nice personality, but that's not the reality of it. Haven't you ever seen girls who go, why can't I find a nice guy? Yet they still sleep with creeps? If what you were saying was true, then why do so many girls have this problem? It's because it's NOT true, too many people care about looks and while there might not be a 100% of people agreeing someone is hot, I am positive there are more than people who more than half of people will agree is hot.

No, you are only speaking of your age group, which from the way you talk must be teens. I know movies and TV make it seem like all adults are like stereotypical teenagers(shallow, illogical) but we're really not. Being able to appreciate the beauty of a model or other celebrity doesn't mean you might not meet a person irl who you're incredibly attracted to that other people might go "uhh... what are you thinking??" while you're falling in love. Not only that, but I'm referring to what makes relationships, not just attraction, crushes, or worst- one-night stands. "I hooked up with (so-and-so) because they're really hot, even though they're dumb as a rock and stuck up" is not the precursor to a long, happy partnership, usually... it's most likely the beginning of a short, disappointing failure.
