1. I'd say not really, I'm maybe a 4 on a good day, but, more like a 3.

2. I'm a touch strange, but, for the most part a nice enough person, but, I don't expect people to move past my external factors

3. For me, there has to be something about their face I find appealing to create that 'spark', but, if the brains and personality aren't there, then, it doesn't matter how they look, it's just not gonna happen. I have never 'hooked up', even for a one nighter without that initial draw from their face. It probably is part of what explains why I've apparently been undesirable to women.... fingers crossed that changes soon.... lol...

Good questions, I hope you get some great answers. Take care.

1) Do you think of yourself as attractive/beautiful?
No

2) Do you expect other people to see your inner beauty regardless of looks in terms of intimate connections?
No

3) Are you more attracted to the inner beauty or outer in terms of intimate connections? If so, would you 'get with' someone solely based on inner beauty?

I doubt there's many people who are going to say "Oh I'm totally superficial I only care about people's appearance" even if it's true , even on her people aren't quite that stupid . The second part is a little tricky . When you say solely based on inner beauty does that mean I am not attracted to them at all or that I find them physically unappealing ? If the former absolutely I would get with them , if the latter , not sure . If the latter it kind of depends , which is a non-answer but it's what I have .

By the way the skin deep thing is not a cliché it's true - take someone's skin off and they are NOT attractive .

Putting clients first by putting employees first, immediately after prioritizing fiscal responsibilities and leveraging profitability towards exceeding by empowering our employees to put clients (and themselves) first, in a diverse and respectful environment of only those that come first, first.

I really don’t think of myself as attractive. I am average. More so, I am me. Mostly from outside influences - friends had a MUCH easier time making/sustaining a connection, whereas I found it difficult just to find someone that ‘gets me’. I really can’t uldn’t understand it, which later I just accepted it and became more of ‘me’. I do try to keep myself presentable (working out/creating my own style/attention to details).

I really don’t expect someone to see my inner beauty - I want them to find it. Make an effort. Being a many-layer-to-the-onion introvert, I don’t show who I am very easily. I will throw little hints to those I feel can find their way, but I don’t expect anyone to easily see ‘me’.

Lastly, and most difficult to answer properly, inner and outer beauty depends solely on the person I notice. Some click the boes) physically. Others just have that ‘yes’ factor whether it be their walk, their personality, or how they present themselves. I honestly can’t be black-and-white in my answer. I really dig the smudgy shadow between the two.

How attractive I think I am varies from day to day. Some days I'm "damned fine" other days I look like a last year's rutabaga.

I suppose once someone's taken the time to get to know me they'll find my "inner beauty", whatever that is. They'll have to get through the near-impregnable barrier of my sense of humor first.

I had the recent experience of meeting someone who I probably wouldn't have been much interested in if I just ran into her on the street. Physically she wasn't what I envision as "my type". But we had been chatting for a while and got to know each other a bit through our words. When we finally did meet her smile and a light in her eyes drew me out and I ended up really liking her. Unfortunately for me, even though she found me attractive {"easy on the eyes"}, she had others that she was much more interested in so the relationship ended up not going very far. C'est la guerre.

i usually say i'm not as homely as ernest borgine nor as handsome as brad pitt . I have been called handsome by several women .I am a very complex guy Rare personality type that does not match up well with most women or their hopes of kind of guy they will have . I have a scathing sense of humor that a few women get but most think is too up front or shocking . I reject almost all average U.S. ideas of what life is .I detest surperficiality , vanity , populism, ideas of fashion and what is expected. I expect my lady would be intelligent , tolerant, see the big picture and not be a slave to societies pressure to conform and have a look or style like the media says you should. We as humans are attracted to symmetry in face and body , men prefer curvy in certain areas women prefer muscle , clear skin , bright eyes , good teeth also get a great deal of attention but actual attractiveness is variable . some will find uma thurmond gorgeous some will say kind of odd looking , same with sarah jessica parker . I don't look at men so i don'et know who is considered hot or quirky . i do prefer a healthy partner and one who is natural . I got my wife to stop coloring her hair ,she does not need cancer so other people can see her hair color she had when 20 . she is gray as are almost all women over 50 .you are fooling no one and it is silly .

I know that I am not attractive, and it is not from what women say but in how they treat me, I am, I guess, a nice enough guy but really I have come to dislike that word (the whole damned by faint praise thing).

The second part could be a large slice of my problem, let me explain, a large part of what I like in people in general and women in specific you can see from the outside (to a point). I want to be with people who take care of themselves and who care about how others see them, and there is a general body type that goes with that, and whether it is a hardwiring thing or what I don't know but really I am not interested in people who aren't physically active and healthy.

Third part, here is where it is going to feel like I am shading my answer, but here we go. Nothing can replace talking with someone in person, especially talking with that person at length, not video, not the phone and no number of emails. So, while I want the initial draw, the real connection comes from the long talks whether over dinner of a more traditional date, during a long run of a better date, or laying with limbs entwined naked of a hookup that can become real.

Not the Whole Truth but the truth that I can see.

1) Do you think of yourself as attractive/beautiful? Definitely not. When I enter a room, some people turn their heads. But most turn their stomachs.

2) Do you expect other people to see your inner beauty regardless of looks in terms of intimate connections? People see what they want to see. Like I said, I don't consider myself attractive but I struck up a friendship with someone on here who said she liked my manners, how I can be fun and serious, and my intelligence (all things relative).

3) Are you more attracted to the inner beauty or outer in terms of intimate connections? If so, would you 'get with' someone solely based on inner beauty? I do need to find a physical attraction on some level. But I also need some kind of other connection too - I'm not going to be attracted to someone who may traditionally look very pleasing on the eye but couldn't hold a conversation.

1. I know I'm not repulsive, and I've been told often enough that I'm good looking, but beauty is in the eye of the holder and all that.

2. Yes please.......

3. It has to be an round thing for me, the package needs to be right, but that doesn't mean the girl needs to be gorgeous, not at all. I think I'm more attracted to to the inner beauty when it truly shines, and then femininity is far more important than outer beauty. In fact, I've often found so-called gorgeous girls quite ugly, if that makes sense.

Nice post Mc12!!

This is a very inquisitive blog. Do we really say, "beauty is skin deep", when we might not be physically attracted to a person? Or is that all of us are hypocrites at some points? My opinion is that we do have to be at least somewhat physically attracted to a person. If they catch your eye a little bit but if their personality stands out, then the attractiveness goes up. I've seen and come across ladies that were physically on a 10+ on the scale but once they opened their mouths, their attractiveness went downhill.

Do you think of yourself as attractive / beautiful? I won't see yes or no. I don't believe I look like I came out of some Picasso painting but at the same time, I wouldn't consider myself breathtaking type attractive.

Do you expect people to see your inner beauty regardless of looks in terms of intimate connections? The thing is, you can't 'expect' people to act like the way you would want or how you think they should be acting. When talking to someone, I would like to think that after a little bit, who I am comes out after awhile and they can get a judgement of who I really am. They may be right, or they may be wrong. I can only try to put one foot forward regardless of what they may think.

Are you more attracted to the inner beauty or outer in terms of intimate connections? If so, would you solely based on their inner beauty? I will admit that I look at physical attractiveness first. But, when it comes to having an intimate connection and or relationship, there has to be substance with the person or I will not try to have any type of connection with the person. What gets my attention? The ability to keep a conversation going and oh yeah, I am attracted to intelligence. A woman who has intellect and can keep me on my toes with an occasional smartass comment will get my attention.

Great topic to discuss and bring up.
