Definitely. That's why I actually get irritated at some of the responses people by reflex give. They make it sound like had you done something a little different (less calling, texting etc...) you would have gotten the girl. More often than not it just boils down to attraction you have no control over. That being said I do believe you should always try and be the best version of yourself.
The silver lining (depending on how you want to look at it lol) I have found is that women can have different types of people they feel this attraction towards. So even though you are objectively more attractive then say a subpar woman... she may not be attracted to you at all. At the same time a better looking girl might be but it will depend on each girl individually regardless of their objective looks.
I have been trying to recount as many experiences with women I have throughout my life and document findings/theories. I'd encourage you to check it out and provide feedback based on what you've experienced yourself.
I have been meaning to do this for a while as you can see from this thread that explains the background - https://www.sosuave.net/forum/threads/everything-i-have-learned-about-women-through-real-experiences.232394/ I need to put everything I've learned through my experiences down and documented...

sounds like we're in agreement lol
And yes, that last point. It's one that i've mentioned a few times. (I have a thread here somewhere where I used to document lots of my approaches)
I always try to make a point to give complete newbies (realistic) optimistic replies. I refuse to lie to them and pretend girls are blind adn 'don't care about looks' or lust after very handsome men, but I do try to make it clear that not all girls have identical taste!
It's important to realise this, and it also explains/refutes certain arguments that coaches try to prove by showing girls they pulled or whatever
Some of the hottest girls i've pulled have been the girls who made it easiest for me. They just happened to think I was good looking (i'm not handsome, but i'm not a complete gargoyle either). One of them I wrote in my FR I tihnk. She was like just 18 (much younger than me) and very much my physical type and she just beelined for me and I was taking her to her parents house (lol) to bang within 30 mins of meeting her in the bar
Similar with another girl who was one of my hotter lays. That night i'd been rejected by landwhales all night lol
My other reference is when I used to work in an office with a bunch of girls. They spend all day oogling over handsome guys on insta and dm'ing etc, but the hottest girl always picked guys who the others girls thought was ugly. She just didn't have super conventional taste
