I don't think i would want to be with someone of above-average attractiveness. Too much competition. I'd feel like i'd always have to be at the top of my game, and i could never relax or let my guard down.
Plus, i think it's tough to find someone who has everything (above-average looks AND an above-average personality). Given the choice of trade-offs, I'd much rather be with an average-looking woman who is warm, kind, and funny.
That being said, i know there are a lot of guys who want a model-type woman 10 years younger than them, as well as plenty of women who want rich guys. So i guess there are no shortage of people out there who are seeking someone solely based on superficial characteristics.

I've heard of this "competition" phenomenon, but haven't experienced it much personally.
What the other person looks like and how many people find him/her attractive is irrelevant. It's about the strength of the bond you have with them, and mutual trust.
Nor would I want a relationship with someone who was extremely funny, or kind, or intelligent, or caring or anything really.
I'd only feel comfortable with the most mediocre of women. Otherwise someone else might want them.
And I, being lowly and pathetic, would lose out.
Dude...you have some problems.
I won't dispute the fact that i have some problems... 17 years of rejection and having women be mean to me and tell me what a loser i am will do that!
But i DO want a woman who is extremely funny, kind, intelligent, and caring, as i mentioned above if you took the time to read the whole thing before mocking me. Those are deal-breakers for me. That's yet another reason why it's so hard for me to find someone. Not only are women not interested in me, but it's tough to find a woman who is funny, kind, intelligent and caring.
well, beauty is only in the eye of the beholder. So define overly attractiveness.
I don't mind dating a dude who is extremely attractive by common standard. I DO mind however dating a person who thinks he is God's gift to all women. Believe me, average looking dudes and below average looking dudes have shared similar mentality. I've dated a very popular attractive college football player, he was the most caring, gentle, faithful and loyal guy I've known. It all depends on individuals.
My girlfriend liked to say, "All guys are dogs nowadays, might just as well sleep with an attractive dog." LOL she got a point.
