PUA Forum :: Being good-looking sucks

Has anyone noticed this? If you're good-looking, there are less people who open you?

I believe that girls feel intimidated and have the same fear of rejection that guys have because they don't feel worthy.

This means that the better looking guys (when i say good-looking, I mean dress sense, looks..etc) need to be alot more friendlier and game harder. Or is it just me

OK this is gonna sound like I'm stroking my own ego. Hey, I'm a good looking guy with strong body language:

I notice that when I approach the HB6's and 7's, they are closed, reserved, and initially appear uninterested. When I approach 8's, they smile, generally expect me to lead the conversation somewhere, and are very receptive. When I approach 9's, again very receptive, lots of eye contact, smile, kino, but it's almost as if I hit the other side of the parabolic curve and they give token resistance initially and during convo.

Basically, women are confusing.

Just kidding, actually you should be able to field calibrate your game after enough experience.

I'm good looking but I'm very intimidating. I'm 6'3 and built like Vin Diesel I also have a shaved head. When I'm in the club I've had guys move out of my way saying you look like a man not to be fucked with or they mistake me for a bouncer. It's a look that attracts hot women, but during the day it can sometimes deter people from talking to me. I look like a mafia personality or hitman. At least I deter amogs for the most part.

I was talking to a chick at a bar one night years ago, and once she saw my tattoos, she asked me what prison did I get those in? I said "well seeing one of them says USMC, that should be obvious." I then got up and walked off.

I don't have much tolerance for blatant stupidity from women or anybody else. If that means I have gotten with less chicks on occasion, so be it.

Lol that's awesome man. Takes a lot of self respect to walk out like that. Props!

Here you are partially right because what I`v learned from experinece is that when you look good, HB`s expect your game is good and if you don`t do it right, you faster become boring.

I've seen 9's that are really shy and 6's that think they are the shit.

Yep, that's what I'm trying to say. It puts unneccessary pressure on the guy especially if he's a rafc. In my case, HB7-8s tend to hold back and bust on me whenever they can, whereas HB5-6s tend to give tons of IOIs before the I even DHV.

I totally agree, the better looking females tend to have lesser self esteem and confidence.

Quote: Has anyone noticed this? If you're good-looking, there are less people who open you? Thats not true. Who wants to open you if you are ug? Only another ug! If you are good looking only ugs will be intimidated to open you and that˛`s good. If you like ugs, you can open them instead. Quote: I believe that girls feel intimidated and have the same fear of rejection that guys have because they don't feel worthy. Of course, but the fact is also that majority fo girls hates to open and want`s to be opened and it will be much more easy if you look good. Quote: This means that the better looking guys (when i say good-looking, I mean dress sense, looks..etc) need to be alot more friendlier and game harder. Or is it just me Here you are partially right because what I`v learned from experinece is that when you look good, HB`s expect your game is good and if you don`t do it right, you faster become boring. HB`s simply have higher expectations from good looking guy then from average guy. Good looks also activate their PU radar faster because sometimes when aberage or ugly guy approaches, SHB`s presume that these guy most certainly isn`t thinking to seduce them and they won`t take him seriously from the start. After he displays his values and start gaming they are already used to talk to him and he can easiliy sneak in. On the other side, imagine someone looking like Brad Pitt (or any other celeb women find good looking) aproaches to some SHB and goes like: Hmmm, Hi, hmmmm, I am Brad, Hmmmm, what`s up, hmmmmm, can I buy you a drink, hmmmm.............. , Man, she`ll blow him off in a second. Good looks is certainly great thing to have but luckily for not so looking guys, good outfit, body language, white teeth and some cool peacok items can do miracles for them. Combined with all other PU knowledge, of course!

Maybe some degree of truth to this. Like a really hot woman, some women maybe more intimidated by a good looking guy. But as a rule, good looking attracts good looking. So the better looking you are, the more interest from you'll get from hotter women. In this case, interest shouldn't be confused with success. Then again a guy needs a lot more than just what is considered physical beauty to be successful.

HB10's, which I'm afraid to admit intimidate the hell outta me, act only slightly better than 6's and 7's, and act like they wouldn't give me the time of day. All this is generalizing of course, and much of it based on first impressions and within 5 mins of initiating. I've seen 9's that are really shy and 6's that think they are the shit. Basically, women are confusing. Just kidding, actually you should be able to field calibrate your game after enough experience.

Basically, women are confusing. Just kidding, actually you should be able to field calibrate your game after enough experience. I've noticed the same thing. Women often are confusing. Especially the younger variety. I'm reminded of a former Navy friend of mine that put it this way. He doesn't like to date younger women because they don't know how to get what they want from him. I agree to an extent. He's also the one that said once you've been to the Philippines or to Thailand, you'll never walk into an American bar and play that utterly ridiculous game again.

It's a look that attracts hot women, but during the day it can sometimes deter people from talking to me. I look like a mafia personality or hitman. At least I deter amogs for the most part. That's interesting and a great point. I'm 6'0 tall, 190 lbs. and somewhat muscular as well. And I often dress quite casually in jeans and a muscle shirt. I also have a tattoo on the upper part of each arm. Although I don't think my looks are intimidating, and certainly don't have any trouble talking to people in almost any situation, I've noticed this as to a degree as well. Most people and especially chicks are somewhat reserved around strangers. And especially strangers that look like they could break them in half. I was talking to a chick at a bar one night years ago, and once she saw my tattoos, she asked me what prison did I get those in? I said "well seeing one of them says USMC, that should be obvious." I then got up and walked off. I don't have much tolerance for blatant stupidity from women or anybody else. If that means I have gotten with less chicks on occasion, so be it.

Well man, I have as many problem with todays politics and politicians as anybody. But any American that doesn't know what 'USMC' is or stands for? I don't have time for 'em. That's a lot more women than you think. Sad thing was, she looked damn good too. Maybe my expectations were a bit too high.

I am a good looking rafc. I feel like 7-8s have been very reserved after I open them. I almost need to encourage an answer. For my day game I was wondering if maybe using a direct opener would be more effective for me so they actually know I'm interested. Or maybe I should open indirectly but provide a pos(? opposite of a neg). Any help is appreciated.

"The Wild One"--that's such an awesome story, i love it. I am ~195 lbs and 6'1", and i've been told by many women that I am intimidating. I try to make jokes--even if they are a little dumb in order to make myself seem less intimidating. I'm still a total AFC, but I think this is nevertheless a good strategy that I will keep.

Im not a large guy, but intimidation can take many forms. Sometimes i get asked, "Why do you look lie your about to kill someone?" I didnt get it at first then some people told me that its in my eyes, the way i look at people sometimes. I realized it a few times were i essentially forget to emote, so i may say something nice and not really smile...thats fine. Other times ill say something to put someone in thier place or speak about something thats not a nice topic, and i forget to emote...then they say i look nuts. For me i have been heavily working on body language. In anycase, about male attractiveness vrs females, i think there is a ever so light correlation. For instance, my whole group of close buddies are all more attractive then me by far (no homo). They all look GQ in physical appearence, as well as being stylish. However i noticed just by peacocking and having better posture that women would open me and not them, wereas before i got no attention. I think through socail proof, posture, confidence, and being alpha, looks really go out the window for us men.
