You are not getting it done, so that is missing the strike zone. A pitcher who throws one pitch fast but can't throw strikes is unrefined.

If you are realistically a 7-7.5 on looks, I don't think a 6 on looks with a decent personality is a major sacrifice. You would be way too picky there.

this number stuff might be a little silly truth be told. I just say a woman is attractive or she's not attractive - I want someone who is attractive to me. It's not a number evaluation.


There are females that are 8s to me that might be a 6 to you and vice versa

One of the first things a woman will notice about you, is your smile and your attitude. Attitude is everything.
A Confident person is really appealing (but not an arrogant one - or standoffish type.)
And don't sit around complaining about not having a flower, when you never try to pick it.

I read in an article once, that for the most part people marry people of the same attractiveness equivalent as themselves (there are some exceptions to the rule, like trophy wives who often marry for money.) so, in other words...Don't complain because you can't have a supermodel, unless you look like Brad Pitt or Johnny Depp...or unless you have Billions in the bank.) (Like I said there are a few exceptions to this, but I have noticed this is often the case)

what's the theme you're alluding to? Please elaborate

OP, what happened to you wanting all your threads deleted and you being banned? It boils down to personal responsibility and your utter lack of it.

Do you seriously crave this much attention?

You're right. What you're talking about makes a lot of sense when you're getting natural opportunities in your day to day life

When you're not getting those opportunities, you have to cold approach and that's way more difficult than just having a warm and welcoming smile.

You're kidding right? I'm about a 7 in the face with a thicker but very athletic frame...

I would be absolutely [bleep] ecstatic to have the female version of that

Mod cut: Quoted post deleted.

Hey, maybe you can date yourself then!


Lol, I think I might see why you are having issues!

I'm just a normal dude who puts in a real concentrated effort to look good, that's all I'm asking for in a female companion.
