Now that was funny.
Expected, but funny.
One can argue that a profile can lie, but a picture can't. One can also believe that a great many people are fascinated by a pretty face (and body), as evidenced by the myriad of Glamor type magazines. |

To make this fair game, I'll start with posting mine. http://www.okcupid.com/profile/glitter-sparkle Let's get this ball rolling. Criminy, that is ... |

Short term date sure. Long term date, or even marry? Nope.
The looks are going to simply get worse given time, guaranteed. There is no guarantee that the personality will ever improve.
A short term date may simply be an arm-trophy. |

| Sex (especially cheating) can be symptomatic of a deeper issue. It's a core aspect of a healthy relationship, particularly early on as it's a reflection of intimacy and trust between two partners. Now, if the trust & intimacy is already there (e.g. you're both 99) then I can see foregoing the n... |

| When it comes to females am I damned by having standards instead of wealth or a criminal record? Yes. But there is salvation even for the damned. I've known those with criminal records (jail & prison) and those aren't necessarily the type of people you'd want to date (those that date criminals)... |

You're going to have to share otherwise it's keeping the viewers in suspense, a cliff-hanger to a series if you will :) Best of luck regardless, it'... |

| Men are attractive for their manlihood, the ability to provide for a family and serve himself. The ability to come off better in a fight. It's engrained into our genes. I agree. It's sad, but if a male displays these traits, it's almost like a dinner bell. That's the 100% truth. Females seek males ... |

Sounds like you weren't what she was expecting when you met.

^^ This.
In management, we call it "fake it to make it" so she should have acted pleasant and at the end, just gone off on her merry way. Or just cut the date short. |

| The first step toward gaining confidence is learning not to fear failure. Start there. +1 to this. In anything we do in life, the first steps are the hardest. We don't know what to do, we're questioning everything and we're uncertain if it's something we're good at hence it can be a "confidence sha... |
