I mean if I'm ugly and the girl is hot I think she's out of my league.

You seriously shouldnt. Of course it matters whether people feel physically attracted to someonee.... But attractiveness is not the same as beauty. I noticed that a big push for being attractive is a high self confidence. I personally also get attracted when someone speaks really passionate about something.

That's a good point. Attractiveness is different than beauty, and I guess looking like a model won't be worth much if you're an asshole.

I have a bunch of women as friends and many of them say the same: A guy can only be average looking to them but say something really smart or nice or funny, and all of a sudden everything about him is beautiful.

Sure there are some people who really got dealt a bad hand when playing poker for their face but there's definitely much more to attraction than just physical appearance.

Is the same true for women, though?

Yeah, I think so.
