I'm tired of being judged on my looks or personality. I'm wondering if there's a point where I earn so much that women will like me regardless of the other two traits.

Looks is 90% genetic, and gym won't help if your face is ugly. Personality is just about playing games which is stupid. The personality you have dealing with your boss or friends is usually not the right one to use against girls. I'm not interested in wasting time on improving my "game".

I feel that if I'm a successful person then I should also get the girls. But it seems that the skills required to get girls is totally different from the skills required for the rest of life. So I'm wondering if it's true that if I'm successful then I'll have girls going after me. Honestly, I'm not hot nor do I have a charming personality.

What are you looking for? What kind of girl you wanna get?

If you're not good looking guy, there are millions of unnatractive girls. Date within your league

Id take the hot possibly illegal Mexican chick with the smokin' body, sweet smile and bubbly personality who works the drive through at McDonalds over an ugly elephantitis faced mean chick who has a face like Ernest Borgnine and milllions of dollars in the bank.

To make it even more simple, I'll take a young, cute, good looking, sweet Starbucks Barista chick over an ugly rich chick any day of the week.

So, what I am saying is no amount of money can make an ugly chick more attractive or even as attractive as a good looking chick with great personality.

The people I am attracted to are not necessarily the ones that the world would be calling attractive. I make that judgment not just based on their looks but on the whole package. If someone is a jerk, the amount of money they make can't change that.

Don't care about looks. But you have to have a personality.

Ugly people can always get plastic surgery. That's where your success and money comes in. You can always change your personality to be nicer, even if it is only to one person (your date).

I'm successful and good looking but I didn't have any game when I was single. That's because I choose to have a crappy personality.

What do your guy friends think of you? What about girls? What kind of work do you do?

Why not be the best you can be in all those categories (appearance, personality, success, etc.)?

And the point of dating someone you find unattractive is...?

Some people keep saying things like this which have no sense. Suppose you have a group with 2 men and 2 women. One of each (1 man, 1 woman) are ugly and the other 2 are attractive. Do you think that the ugly girl will feel attracted by the ugly guy, and viceversa? Of course not: both guys want the cute girl and both women want the hot guy. That's how the world works and you can go check it in any group of friends.

Well, that can be a good try. The shame is that for some people, even being their best is not enough. That's when people start becoming bitter, by the way.
