Do you actually know how attractive you are to the opposite sex? [serious]

alreadyredschool · 2017-10-07T16:14:48+00:00

Pretty sure that this isn't important. Love yourself, be confident, approach relentlessly. These things never change.

I think I am a 10 to like 10% of the population, a 3 to like 50%, a 6 to like 30% and everything in between for the rest.

I start at 5, remove two points for my masculine body shape, remove a point or two for a bad face, add a point because I have a mean resting heart rate (arteries are sexy), so I'm a 2-3, but then PPD has told me many times that a woman who isn't fat is at least a 6, so scrap everything else and transplant me in the fattest US state and I'm 6+.

For women: their most attractive orbiter.

For men: their most attractive plate.

This is an interesting question.

I know I'm not dog ugly. Girls I've been with have described me as "hot" but I don't exactly get regular compliments on my looks. One of my best female friends said I was a solid 8, but she also put me in her friend zone for years, before she got drunk and made out with me, but as you can probably guess that's a complicated story.

I know I'm not the pretty boy type that girls compete over and get giddy and dumb around. If anything most girls seem to be honestly afraid of me but I'm not sure if that's because I'm conspicuously smart (not trying to brag, I wish I was better at hiding my brains, seriously) or because I'm built like a fullback (also not trying to brag, it also means I have to stay in shape or I start looking like a fridge with legs).

But this is something that's weird. Normal looking girls act reserved and coy with me, while downright hot ones are more openly flirtatious and interested. Sometimes they even make passes on me themselves.

So as you can probably tell, I'm confused as fuck about my level of attractiveness to the opposite sex. Lots of contradictory clues. Course it doesn't help that I really need to get in shape and get my confidence up - that just throws everything off.

I think I'm pretty dead-on average in the face and maybe a little above average body-wise. So I'd put myself at like a 6.5

The thing is though I think I'm really attractive to a certain kind of guy, and kind of meh to another type of guy. Guys who like "cute", mousy, girl-next-door types really like me. Guys who like "hot" Instagram types or alternative types aren't going to pay attention to me at all. Knowing your audience is important.

When I walk past people, nothing happens.

funny_lyfe · 2017-10-07T16:23:19+00:00

I have no fucking clue but it's more than I think considering the hot girls I've been with over the years and how many girls flirt with me and shit. I'm still way more insecure than I really need to be man. Lots of hot girls like me even though I think I'm ugly so obviously I'm actually pretty decent.

funny_lyfe · 2017-10-07T16:42:40+00:00

I'm probably a 3 or 4/10 to women.

SimplisticHedgehog · 2017-10-07T17:03:25+00:00

My track record of constant misfortune in dating world tells me exactly where I land on attractiveness scale. Probably bottom 20%. Invisible or avoids eye contact is my daily experience.

cxj · 2017-10-07T17:55:24+00:00

I'm very attractive to certain niche of girls. Namely ones that like white dudes with blue eyes, beards and tattoos, and don't care that much about height.

I know this because they giggle and blush around me, have sex with me, and still add me on fb when I have no idea who they are, and they are like 18 and I'm early 30s.

funny_lyfe · 2017-10-07T16:08:36+00:00

not very

funny_lyfe · 2017-10-07T16:40:55+00:00

Yes I know. All my life every person has told me the same thing.

[deleted] · 2017-10-07T18:16:50+00:00

Yes

I’m probably an 8 to soft 9

Because hot chicks have sex with me and I hide my income (cheap shitty car, cloths, studio)

Love8Death · 2017-10-07T18:40:15+00:00

Since I'm a curry in the west I'm about a 3/10 to all the women around me

I have no idea how attractive I am.

Electra_Cute · 2017-10-07T17:28:57+00:00

I’m not bad looking, but I am not anything special to look at, so I would say 5/10 if I had to rate myself.

wtknight · 2017-10-07T17:55:09+00:00

Some women think I'm attractive, some don't. Overall I figure I'm pretty average. I usually appeal to women who aren't into rugged-looking men. Asian women seem to be attracted to me for some reason.

LittleWindowpane · 2017-10-07T18:07:49+00:00

Probably a 2: attractive enough to be tolerated by women and talk to them, not attractive enough to ever express interest in sex or romance without being seen as an unGODly creep.

Love8Death · 2017-10-07T18:58:02+00:00

No not really. I think I'm a 6-8? Used to think I was like a 4-5.

shrug

Doesn't matter too much.

TheBookOfSeil · 2017-10-07T19:30:07+00:00

It's a mixed bag. I'm ignored by a lot of people, but there are some that stop and stare, and I've gotten a few "you're cute"-'s before. One girl even told me I was the most beautiful boy that she's ever seen. Not sure if that's really a compliment, though...

funny_lyfe · 2017-10-07T21:08:00+00:00

I'm unattractive to the other sex (and the same sex probably). Photofeeler even confirmed it.

md8716 · 2017-10-07T23:39:49+00:00

My personal self-assessment is that women over 30 are really attracted to me. I can't explain why.

RockinSocksII · 2017-10-08T01:50:43+00:00

Just do /r/rateme.

Entropy-7 · 2017-10-08T05:42:23+00:00

I think the simplest metric is to look at the quality of partners you are attracting. I have a few 4s and 9s in my history but generally 6s and 7s.

Xholica · 2017-10-08T12:51:16+00:00

I vary a lot. I'm in shape, but I have eyes that are quite far apart. Some guys are wildly into me, some don't mind either way, and some think I'm look kinda weird.
