Be sure that you're genuinely happy with your decisions for attempted self-improvement; don't just start wearing Brooks Brothers and Kenneth Cole for the hell of it. Everyone has his or her own style and preferences.

With that said...at the end of the day, a woman's either going to be attracted to you, or she's not. Period. Clothes/confidence/humor will only improve your percentages a little bit. For the average guy - only about 0.1% - 1% of women will potentially be attracted to him.

BEST RESPONSE I HAVE SEEN!!

Move to a different country where you're less likely to be judged based on physical appearance.

OP-Hit the gym, make your wardrobe more current, educate yourself (as in take classes in different things to make you more "worldly" like cooking, bob villa classes (lol)) be nice, respectful and kind, be metrosexual as in getting eyebrows waxed, mani/pedi's, go tanning..You get the idea..GL

I am from the United Kingdom (Northern Ireland specifically). Trust me when I say the superficial nonsense that is so important to so many tens or hundreds of millions of Americans isn't as important where I come from. Some of the responses in this thread prove that. They tell the OP to get surgery, straighten teeth, but don't address the real problem, which is that people are simply too geared towards judging someone based solely on physical appearance. There's even a thread in the fashion forum where some bird asks if it's better to pursue plastic surgery rather than a university degree. Sad sad sad,

Are they though?

There is a stream of thought which says a sloppy exterior is indicative of a sloppy personality.

Lack of grooming suggests a lack of care both for the society around you, and for yourself.

Case in point - your average street person. I bet you wouldn't date someone who dressed like a hobo and let all their teeth fall out.

Op your teeth are vital..and so Is.your skin condition....it doesn't matter if u get a nice body if your ugly. All u will do is scare women off. teeth and skin are your most important things to fix. Stuff like a nice body and nice clothes are only icing on the cake. As long as your not a fat hobo looking bum...then worry about the details less.
