I'm not saying you would actually want a 1, but I was just wondering if you really tried to go as low as you could possibly go since you said you still didn't think doing that would lead to finding someone.

Go walk around a mall or hang out in public for a day, go to the zoo, etc. You'll see loads of average or below average looking men walking around with women that are average looking at worse. Looking like guys from Duck Dynasty is a very popular look for guys these days where I live. If you're not getting dates, there's most likely something else that's wrong and it's not your looks. I've said this on here a million times, I feel like I need to make it my sig.

Yup, absolutely true.

G'Day Tony,

I was a car salesman many years ago. The one lesson that I have learned has been instrumental in just about everything that I can sort out to this day. You see, a half-truck came into the store to be traded for a newer vehicle. I was responsible for this truck. I test drove the truck and said that there is no way that anyone would want a truck that sounds this way. A senior salesman told me... using his vulgar wording "there is a bum for every seat". He sold the vehicle to the next people that took the test drive.

The same applies to people. As for hookers; do not promote this business. I recommend that you find out the things that you like to do and look around for prospects. Do NOT be too hung up on your appearance; for that is not the final say. In fact, do not be alarmed about approaching very attractive women but do be warned that there are responsibilities associated with the likes of such.

There is one post that mentioned about "self esteem" and that is quite accurate. If it means that you go to Lowes, purchase a hammer and smash your tv then do such. That is one of the best things that you can ever do for yourself. The media has a lot to do with how you feel about yourself. Even if it plays in the background and you do not actually watch, you are being programmed that you are not adequate and you are constantly challenged to compare yourself to someone else. Let me tell you; you will NEVER be the fastest car on the road and you will NEVER be the most handsome person in the building, etc. NEVER, EVER, EVER. There will always be someone better, stronger, faster and better looking than you are, etc. It is your choice to allow this demonic activity to have rule over your life causing you to feel inadequate.

If you must, try on-line dating; you will eventually find someone but be warned if she is phenomenally out of your league. Man, when I met my girlfriend, I look like three weeks of bad weather... like, what's the number to FEMA! But on the other hand; my girlfriend, if we need a camp fire, she can just touch it because she is so hot. I used to ask her what is she doing here??? LOL. In the meantime, I stayed in my Bible and improved what I could then forget the rest... I am no model but now she receives compliments about me... I have been upgraded... Wei-Kool. If I can do it, the loch-ness monster can do it.

And THERE we have it! You're "ugly"(?)...but you ain't THAT ugly! If you want someone purtier than you then you better have a compensating factor or two. But nope - no concessions from you because YOU deserve purty!

BTW, what are you exactly on a scale from 1-10, just so we know.

Sounds like someone in school would ask that. No adult puts a number on themselves it's pretty juvenile thinking.

Ohhhhh - yes, he's perfectly okay rating others and saying he wouldn't want an even uglier "1" than he and yet I'M the juvenile one? I'm just playing along with his game....get it?

Still finishing laundry so I'll play along for the of it, 3 on a regular day, 4-5 when I'm clean cut and in a suit. Don't need "purity" just don't look like someone beat you with an ugly stick.

Why does me being a ugly mean I have to or should be attracted to someone ugly, would you tell a single mother to only date single fathers?

So me and you are about the same. Yet I get dates, and often with really cute women. So what is the difference?
