The better you look, the more people you can attract. This is 100% correct for both men AND women. That is the way it is. For every man who is a 2 who cant get women to look at him, there is a woman who is a 2 who cant get men to look at her. Such is life. Sucks sometimes, doesnt it?
Yeah it does. Thats why I had to make myself more attractive and still not done yet but being a 2 sucks. I thought about suicide sometimes.

Isolation, Loneliness, and a nice helping of low self esteem or perfect ingredients for wanting to give up on life.

We had a post on attractiveness scales before and it didn't go so well. I agree that all people will judge differently on what is attractive for them, but I also agree that you can swag where people fall on such a scale and the majority of people can agree.

I don't care where I fall on the scale myself, it is not for me to say. But I know women that I find attractive have no problems with my looks. I rate only what I am attracted to and what I am not. A "5" is just as attractive to me as a "9". Yes, I can agree that the 9 is better looking, but if I am attracted to someone, then I am and that is not based on a scale.

Work on your scent. Many guys do not. I am not saying cheap over powering unnatural smelling colognes that people gag on from across the room or even at a speaking distance. Just something that is lite and clean smelling that someone has to be within speaking distance to just catch a hint of it. Lots of times, women step close to smell me. I think it really helps. Of course shower and keep yourself, clothes and everything in general clean. Some guys think a shower is enough, but 2 to maybe 5 hours later....you just smell like BO and you probably don't even notice it. I use one to two sprits of Creed Green Irish Tweed most days and smell like I just took a shower a few minutes ago for the whole day usually. Buy at a store, not online. Fake stuff is not worth however much money you saved. Lacoste pour homme and essential also smells lite and clean and is a whole lot less expensive.

Yeah getting a really good smell and getting my teeth perfect was my next step. Thanks for the advice.

Sure after time they come to their senses or not.
HAHAHA so true. I experimented with my new look and was a complete dick to this one lady. She laughed at every stupid joke, touched me and gave me tons of leeway.

I went to the club and a couple of guys tried to hit on this one girl. She walked over to my area and began dancing right in front of me. Tskk, tsk, tsk superficial.

Went from being the skinny nerdy guy to having about a 43 chest with a 30 waist, 6-pack, all that. All the gals that say this does not matter - well it mattered to some of the gals I knew back in the day is all I can say.

Hit the gym harder. Keep at it. When you like what you see in the mirror, it changes your attiude, that improves your personality.

If you are not chatty, cultivate the "strong, silent" image.

As your car skills grow, you may find that like it was for me, a gal with car trouble was very likeley to give you her phone # after you fixed her problem. Of course 30 years ago there were more simple cars out there that would quit for some simple thing that you could actually fix with a handful of tools...
Thanks. Yeah I defiantly want to put on about 30 more lbs of muscle. I dont want too put on too much muscle though. 30 more lbs should bring me to a respectable 240. My skin is clear but not flawless so I won't to get it flawless.
I defiantly want to get a sculpted chest.


Actually this is kind of fun thinking of ways to improve my look.

But I defiantly like the strong silent image idea. I think I come off like that naturally now.

Then I'm going to hit the club and see the effects lol. Last time I went a women hollered at me hanging out the window of her girlfriends car when I was walking down the street. She was like "You look good baby!!"

What I don't understand is your numeric rating system. It seems you arbitrarily assigned yourself a number, and now that you've made changes/improvements, you've assigned yourself a higher (read: better) number. Great, but if you're the only one who perceives your rating system that way, it's useless. You might be a 2 on someone else's personal rating scale, and a 7 on another's. And then there are those of us who don't use a numerical scale at all, so then what? It's a superficial way of classifying and stereotyping people based on external looks.

I started dating a guy last year who I met through mutual friends, and I got to know him as a person before dating him exclusively. He became more attractive to me because of his tremendous personality and inner qualities, whereas if I saw him across a bar, i would have thought "he's kind of cute" and that's all. I'm glad for the way we met and got to know each other because otherwise I would have missed out on the perfect person for me if I was judging solely based on appearance.

I attracted women who were 6 and 7's in my book so I put myself on their level but then again I asked a friend his opinion on her number and he said she was an 8.5 or a low 9. To me she was a 7.
