good post hairwegoagain. i think the problem with him and other guys is they are obsessed about their looking. i mean nothing against that if you can fix it and look good. its like some hotties. they are obesessed with their lookings too, but they are pretty so they can be like that. though i dont know what happens to them when they hit 30+ .
though i dont know how you can stop being obsessed about your lookings. i guess its a long process. you need to focus on other things. ya easier said than done. i think you must have good and happy experiences where your looking doesnt matter and where you are happy for a longer time in your life and you see that it doesnt deepend on your lookings.
these guys like recboi think they only can be happy when they look good. well, im actually one of these guys for a part. but the more i improve my looks, the less they matter to me. i guess thats normal. because i now see, i dont have many advantages by good looks. well fine, you have some advantages when you look good but you can get them too by other features. like carisma, being helpful for others, being friendly, being cool, being interesting, being successfull. that are all qualities you can have even when you are ugly. and i think if you have only some of them to a part, thats much more important , matters more and gives you more success in social situations than brad pitt looks.
sure, if you re not pretty, you arent a sex symbol , you arent a model type or dont look like a star, but whatever. there are even ugly stars. they have some of the attributes mentioned above.
i think people who are ugly and even pretty people just need to stop worrying so much about their looks. especially in this forum here. i think what helps pretty people the most is their self-confidence which comes with their looks. thats the same with rich people. or powerful people. but there are other types of people who have self-confidence too.
there was a guy in a class of mine who was very short, maybe average or below average looking, but he had self-confidence. we made a game. we should play a management meeting. and he was voted for president. coz he was self-confident and was good at talking. damn, i barley was able to say something at all these people sitting around a table. i wished i had his skills. ya, i really really wished. and i guess im gona try to get these skills. so i will have something even when my looks go down (...on the ccs rating scale).
cheers guys and a happy new year.
