So, I was watching this video and Waffles used a study made by Lucy Hunt and Eastwick and Finkel.

The study called Leveling the Playing Field: Longer Acquaintance Predicts Reduced Assortative Mating on Attractiveness, says that couples who met before becoming a couple are less likely to score similarly on attractiveness.
So, if you are unattractive and still want to have a chance of having a partner more attractive than you, you first have to have friends and a more intimate bond with the opposite sex.
Personality trumps looks but somehow this is a Blackpill?
