Good looking women with average looking men - how?

LiveOnce

When you walk around any good crowded area you always see such beautiful/good looking women with average looking guys.

It baffles me not in a shallow way but in some other ways, women make such an effort to look good so I would have thought they picked better in men.

You see women in media portrayed as vying for men like Clooney, Pitt, Cruise, or whoever the flavour of the year is in movies/TV.

I guess it comes down to maybe women look for other things in men than looks. Is this the case?

Or is it the case that the men who have the balls to ask out women tend to get it, over men who are good looking but are not bold?

Or women do more, on average, and have more socially acceptable tools at their disposal to enhance their looks?

Maybe women are less shallow when it comes down to it?

Looks are way down on my list of what matters in a partner. After kindness, sense of humour, sharing my beliefs and being a dog lover amongst others!

Do you remember seeing the Tv interview ........
... "And tell me what is it about the millionaire Paul Daniels, that the lovely Debee McGee finds attractive ?

I have a new theory that the worse looking they are the better they are in bed.

I've also been out with some gorgeous men who have the personality of a turnip and are ridiculously vane.

I think any guy that can make you laugh instantly becomes more attractive.
I don't pick men on looks anymore.
Not of this is scientifically proven just a few things i've come up with through trial & error over the years haha

Why does it bother you are you missing out?

Some men like a trophy girlfriend/wife.

But it does puzzle me a bit that very good looking women often end up with these guys, yes.

Perhaps they are visually attractive for the women, or they are fantastic people and the women aren't shallow enough to care for the average looks.

I'll take that as a compliment beautyqueen, but can you just remind me when we were in bed together.

Here's the thing.....



Looks don't mean everything. I'd rather an average bloke with a fantastic personality than a vacuous stunner.

It's probably a bit to do with security too. They think the average fella won't run off with someone else as they've got such a 'hot' girlfriend, whereas if your boyfriend is very good looking he can have the pick of the bunch really and no doubt keep getting approached by women. Average men blend in.
