I really believe social skills are more important than looks. If you can make someone feel comfortable and carry a conversation, you will go farther than just sitting there and looking pretty. Pretty doesn't cut it.
So don't worry about what you look like. (You look good, by the way.)You can't change the basics of that. You can learn to talk to people, make friends, and even flirt. It's a hell of a lot harder than getting a new haircut or whatever, but its what really matters.
I agree. I think a person's personality counts more than his/her looks.
Have you seen that Eddie Murphy movie "Coming to America"? Murphy plays an African prince who is compelled by his parents to marry a young woman who he has never me before and merely intends to obey his every command. He didn't care if the woman was pretty/sexy or less attractive, but he wanted a woman that can love and respect him for who he is.
When I was in high school, I wanted a girlfriend just like other guys did but didn't have the proper social skills necessary to get one then (EVEN THOUGH I WAS HANDSOME). As a college student today, I have the ability to socialize with people especially young women. So Poeticromance, you may want to focus more on your social skills than your looks when searching for guys to socialize or date with. So don't give up!! !
