Average-Looking Men Are More Attractive Than You Think
The modern dating scene is becoming a tough scene for average-looking men who have an extra challenging time navigating it. Why? People often overlook them in favor of more attractive men.
Their reputation has, unfortunately, caused many women to pay no attention to them. We’ve all seen many examples of this scenario in movies and TV shows.
Research seems to agree with such a struggle. A 2017 study revealed that average-looking guys have more difficulty finding matches on dating apps compared to other men.
Is the future bleak for these gentlemen? Fortunately, the answer is no. Dating apps and other platforms don’t and shouldn’t define a person’s attractiveness. If you can’t get women to swipe right for you online, you can always find love offline.
Why Go for Average Men?
Average-looking guys may not win out looks-wise, but they’re still worth any woman’s time. Here are some of the qualities that make them just as attractive as other men:
#1: They have more self-awareness
Average-looking guys tend to be more self-aware compared to their more attractive counterparts. Many good-looking men seem to think their attractiveness will give them an advantage in every situation, including dating.
Thanks to their self-awareness, average-looking men know how to take advantage of their other strengths — among which include personality and wit. There are women who look at men beyond just their physical attributes.
#2: They aren’t greedy for attention
Unlike attractive males, average-looking guys aren’t used to constant attention. When a woman fancies them, they won’t act vain and conceited. You wouldn’t have to worry about having a haughty partner.
#3: They have healthy confidence
Confidence looks great on everyone. And since many average-looking guys have self-awareness, they come across as secure and self-assured people. They carry themselves with enough poise and grace, which is sure to attract any woman.
#4: Looks don’t matter to them
Is a person’s appearance a relevant factor in attraction? Yes — and there’s no use denying that. Who wouldn’t notice a handsome or pretty face? However, physical appearance isn’t the be-all and end-all of dating. A person’s face can only do so much to keep a relationship alive.
More often than not, average-looking guys pay little to no mind about a person’s physical attributes. Personalities tend to win them over.
For example, an average guy notices an average-looking woman checking them out, and he happens to be equally interested. The woman doesn’t have to worry about her looks because that’s not the guy’s priority. He’s more interested in getting to know her as a person.
#5: They’re low-maintenance partners
Average-looking men don’t demand much from their partners. They don’t obsess about making themselves look good just to attract women. They’re okay with dates in underrated places instead of trendy locations. As long as they have their partners with them, they won’t ask for much.
Looks are Temporary
Average-looking guys have more to offer than just their looks. Many of them have attractive personalities that can win over any woman. They may not stand out from the crowd, but they can be just as magnetic as handsome guys.
If you belong to such a group, don’t let your looks diminish your chances. There is a woman out there who’s waiting for a guy like you. And if it makes you feel any better, looks are temporary, but personality is timeless.
