I never did say that looks didn't play a role, but what I'm saying is that it's not ALL that matters, and you do not need to be unusually attractive to have unusual success with women - you just don't. There is no need to go the extra mile to look better than everybody else. All you need to do is just take pride in your appearance and you will be just fine.
Becoming good looking is far easier than becoming everything else you have to become to reach success with women. So too many guys go through the trouble of getting some makeover without actually doing the harder work to become successful. These guys never find succes - they're just good looking AFC's.
What other reasons are these?
That's what they all say...
How do you know what I give a chance what I don't give a chance? No I'm not going to want to date every single female in the world, but I'm not going to just blow a girl off just because I don't think she's the hottest girl in the room.
For starters...it IS important to strive to look your best. The reason for this is because it not only improves the way you look and will attract more members of the opposite sex...but it makes you more confident...and anyone who claims otherwise is full of it. Confidence is one of the (if not THE) most important qualities in being successful in life...dating, relationships and otherwise.
I've been uninterested in men I found extremely attractive for many reasons over my lifetime. Immaturity, being boring, not being able to carry on intelligent conversation, being lazy in their relationships and friendship (all take and no give), ignorance, a history of sleeping with nasty ho-bag women, continuously going back to very bad relationships despite being miserable in them, bad attitudes...tons of things. I've NEVER looked beyond a guy for not making a lot of money, for driving a crappy car, for having a crappy job, being poor or for making mistakes in the past (as long as he owns them and at least tries to learn from them).
Yes, I'm very shallow about certain things. Other things I'm not at all. I like to look into the face of the guy I'm with, and by God, I've gotta really adore that face, period.
Bottom line is that just like you guys, I need certain things in a potential partner to be happy. There's absolutely nothing wrong with that, and by God, I'm honest about it. If I'm happy with the guy and he treats me well, he'll be treated so well he'll think he died and went to heaven. If I'm not happy with someone and I try to be with them my heart won't be in it and I'd only be wasting both his and my time, and I'm not big on that sort of thing. So, I know what I want and what will keep me happy and I'm not willing to settle for less, just as I wouldn't ever expect anyone else to settle for less than what they want.
I find it really bizarre than some men have such a difficult time with women who are honest about this sort of thing. That probably plays a big part in why so many women lie through their teeth and make up a bunch of cliche' BS when asked what they find appealing in men.
If you don't want women to fib then don't make them feel like they have to in order to avoid wounding your egos.
