I haven't been impressed with the individuals I know who are in this category. I don't know your friend's circumstances, but I'm talking about guys who had money to burn beginning in their teens. They were set up with their own stash of cash to do with as they pleased the rest of their lives. They'd spend it on very expensive toys, jet-setting, etc. If your friend is an exception, more power to him.

Everyone looks better with a healthy tan glow. It defines muscles, makes you look thinner, hides blemishes and makes your teeth look whiter.

Duck, I just LOL every time you open your mouth.

I get this picture in my head that im in front of a lake (dunno why it's not a beach since I like the sea better), sitting on a foldup chair and drinking cold beer from a cooler between us while laughing at everything you say.

I dont care if you dont like sitting in front of lakes or if you only shake, not stir... this is my fantasy

I dont think that's what I meant, but maybe the age thing really has something to do with it. Like I never even watched the news or look at newspapers when I was a kid. The gray paper and modulated voices were just too dull! It was cartoons or lemme play outside.

Now I still like cartoons, but I somehow have morphed into someone who LIKES watching the news and reading newspapers. I even prefer them to cartoons.

Whites may or may not look better with a tan but there's nothing healthy about that "glow", it's just the uv radiation. lol

I really wanted to chime in to this conversation.

When I was growing up (grade school age), the girls would always call me the "ugly boy." In elememtary school, I remember we had to come up with a scary story for Halloween and a girl made me out to be the scary monster. Around middle school things did not improve as I would often hear girls whisper to eachother that I was the "ugly boy." High School was the worst though. I remember overhearing a guy with a group of girls asking each one, if paid $100, would they ever have sex with me. Of coure, they all said no. I also had one student bully me in class and always give me a million and one reasons why I would never be able to get a girlfriend. I would be a lair if I said that growing up did not cause some detriment to my dating life.

Jumping ahead its both funny and fortunate how things turned out. I am 28 years old, good-looking and still peaking. I have aged rather gracefully. I am certainly not the ugly boy anymore. I must have been a late bloomer! I can pretty much talk to any female now without getting that creepy, why are you talking to me type of vibe. In all honesty, its amazing how life works out. Most of the people I graduated high school with have let themselves go and it truly shows. 2/3rds of my graduating class looks older than 35, and not in a good, mature kind of way either.

The best advice I can give (from my own personal experience) to better your physical appearance is to get a good nights rest. Avoid excessive alcohol comsumption and try to deter stress as much as possible. You don't have to be a healthy eater, but eat healthy foods from time to time and always try to consume food in moderation. I have also established a non-time consuming skin care regimine so that I can keep my looks longer. I also try to get in a little bit of exercise. Just a little walk and/or run several days a week does absolute wonders. You don't have to skill yourself to stay or get back in shape.

In addition, I also try to walk with an air of confidence. I purchased a nice, expensive pair of Oliver People sunglasses so that I can add a little bit of style to my appearance and wardrobe.

To the OP, I wish you good luck in your attempt to improve you life and physical appearance. Life may not seem fair at times. However, I can be the first to attest that it is not where you start that matters, but instead where you finish that makes all the difference.

Yet, you exclude a portion of men because of money. That makes perfect sense.
