You need to change your story. Basically brainwash yourself until you believe it. Take all the things that you don't like about you and turn them into positives. You need to read your new story out loud every single day especially in the mornings and just before bed. Read it and visualize it. Do this for 30-40 days straight until it becomes a habit.

Every mind is wired differently. You may hate vanilla ice cream, someone else may love it. Somebody else may think you are more attractive than you believe you are.
I wouldn't bank on this logic. It would be much more effective to make some changes and do some work until you are happy with yourself, because ultimately the only person whose opinion of yourself actually matters is you.

attractiveness is largely objective
all women prefer the same few traits on men
sure, she might prefer a guy with black hair over blond one, but he still must be tall, have square jaw, pretty eyes etc...

Not agree.
I am sure attractiveness is subjective. But yeah, the media and their criteria play a lot in people’s perception.

Please stop spreading this stupid bullshit around here, it doesn't do anyone a favor.
Attraction doesn't come by being good looking only, its about personality, its about intentions. See OP the problem here its that he's trying to rationalize something that for girls is entirely emotional, and you cant do that. If you think a girl will give you her number only because she thinks oh this guy is def a 8 so i must do it its completely bullshit.
If an handsome guy anxiously approaches a girl he will still look like a creep, because he indirectly shows neediness by putting her opinion above his own, since anxiety comes by the fear of rejection, therefore making him look like a weirdo and making the girl think "oh he's so attractive why is he so shaken by me? bam attraction is OFF"
Instead if an ugly guy, who does put in the work and approaches girls often, works out, is not scared of rejection, with great attitude and confidence, without showing any sign of anxiety and neediness, being able to hold a nice and funny convo, will leave the hot girl thinking "damn this guy has an ugly face but he's so confident and he's not shaken by me, he was really funny and charismatic, he must deal with hot girls all the time" therefore ATTRACTION!
Of course if you're also handsome, plus points. But attractiveness, as i already said, comes with the whole package. While you might not be able to work on your facial features, you can level up everything else.
Or you could choose to spend your time on reddit writing insane metaphors about boxers to demonstrate your beta arguments to reinforce the fact that you should settle with your shitty life. FUCK THAT
Also you decide how attractive you are. You decide who you are. You shape your fucking reality. You don't base your self worth on what some girls throughout your life have said. So fucking sad smh

A bit offtopic, but is there an example of this attractiveness scale for both men and women? Asking because I didn’t think 6 is so unattractive that they have never received a compliment.

Assume attraction...someone read Bacon's book, haha. Well, how you can attract if you don't believe in yourself? Most of the time, the right personality traits will top any good looking guys without desirable traits.
[–]ComprehensivePen71 2 points3 points4 points 4 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link
more often than not good looking guys already have the desired personality traits just due to the life theyve led since puberty

Assume the next best thing: Assume, that you don't know, whether she is attracted to you. Then you have to make a move to find it out.

The ability to assume such things without any evidence or feedback is a consequence of delusion. I think you have to be way outside your head to hold these unfounded beliefs, whereas if you are introspective you can never delude yourself.

You could try and fake it, or you could actually work on your self improvement to become attractive. Its not just about physical appearance, Attraction its related to the whole package. You might get a few dates faking it, but you can't keep faking it forever, girls will notice the gap beetween your words and your intentions, and will inevitably lead into a toxic relationship, if any.
What you could do instead is start working out constantly, work on your mental health, meditate, journal your life, be grateful for what you have reached and never stop.
I was feeling the same, I always felt flawed, like I didn't have anything going for me really. Gym taught me that some things can be leveled up, both your body and your mind. And then starting to cold approach became a lot easier, attracting girls too. You can't fake it forever, its just a band aid solution. But you can start loving yourself
And please don't listen to these black pill weirdos

No, don't fake it till you make it. Focus on making yourself attractive first.
