I believe this, many women like my ex-wife are control freaks and want all the attention. A less attractive man can be controlled easier, less likely to cheat, will eat more shit, will work like hell to make her happy. She can wrap him around her finger and use him for a floor mat. She will also be the center of all attention, including from other men. I am speaking from first hand experience, my marriage was just like this. After I went broke and was no longer the easy going less attractive husband, she moved on to greener pasture another less attractive fat ass floor mat work horse.
I don't think anyone needs a partner to be happy, but I think I've read a study that claimed that if one person in a couple is obese, their partnet has also has a higher chance of becoming obese, too. The cause is quite simple: behavior is contagious
Similar people are more likely to be successful in dating and in general. Because they understand each other, have common grounds, find it easier to share interest, values and therefore count on each other.
Like another user said, a more attractive partner is more likely to cheat. That isn't exactly happiness. The less attractive partner might feel so insecure to the point of self sabotaging.
That's why we have leagues.
Plus, there's a good chance this unattractive partner is being used as a doormat (in most cases anyway).
There's also a good chance of jealousy ruining the relationship if there's even slightest miscommunication as the more attractive person is most probably popular.
Ha. I bet the guys who say false end up with women who say true & the guys who say true are with women who say false. BUT men don't even think of women's looks the same way that women do so we're not really comparing apples to apples here. Both people could think the other person looks better than themselves.
Women are more likely to be happier with men who treat them with love, respect, and loyalty. There are a lot of women out there who put looks second and personality first. This is why it may seem like very attractive women go for unattractive men. Usually really good people with high charisma end up with women that are more attractive than they are simply from having an attractive personality.
I agree with Brainsbeforebeauty. But I also agree that society focuses on looks too much. When you walk into a store and you see store brand Shampoo and Name Brand Shampoo. Which one is most important to you? The size of the bottle or the attractiveness of the label on the bottle? Most likely its the size, that's what she said. There is a philosophy that says quantity isn't as important as the label. Wrong! What is on the INSIDE means more than what is on the OUTSIDE.
It really about the mindset of the woman. If she can be happy or alway looking for next way to satisfy her ego. Same goes for guys. Today gender cultures would indicate that would be true, a less attractive guy would do more for the woman then a attractive one, so there is more room for her to be pleased. But some people needs it all and can't settle with a lesser choice and be happy with it.
I believe less good looking men put more effort depending on the man so yes she’d be much more happier with him then a hunk that can replace her in a minute… but women are emotional and never seem to make good choices when they get emotional… so they do stupid shit to fuck it up.
I actually think this is true, now, that doesn’t mean women want to be with someone they do not find physically attractive in any way, but it means that women don’t want someone so attractive that they feel like he can get all sorts of women rather than her. There’s some power play here, where women want to find their man attractive but him being overly attractive can make them insecure.
I'm not sure but my boyfriend is much good looking than me 😂
Than you're boyfriend has to be the hottest, sexiest man on earth.
Well I don't think so 😅
Yes. If she's manipulative and doesn't love him and if he is insecure and can provide for whatever lifestyle she wants. She'd also be happy cause she knows he's not going anywhere.
But then again if she really loved him and he really loved her and their relationship goes passed appearance, then they'd both be happy.
How does the "better looking" thing work? Can a man and a woman be equally good looking? (whatever that means)
I'd be skeptical of such studies. You don't start with a supposition that your statement is true and then try to weave some story to back it up.
Of course it's true. The women who voted no are not looking at the full statement, which is a comparison between men and women. It is absolutely true that a man with an unattractive woman will be less satisfied than a woman with an unattractive man. That's just a biological fact. That's how the world works.
Yes because it means he is less likely to find some one better and leave her, however I think their is an upward (downward to be more accurate) limit. I think its marginally or negligibly less attractive then her, otherwise she will be unhappy.
Yea its true. But how often do guys actually put themselves out there to girls they find really hot. Not too often. TRY PEOPLE JUST TR. You never know who your person will be if you don't try to find your person.
I've seen some truly opposite looking couples, wondered what the attraction was.
Because, I have seen this way too many times and wanted to literally gag, especially when my female attractive family members do and have done this. Grooooooosssssss!!!
This one probably looks your wallet too
I think it's kinda true. When my boyfriend is too handsome or better looking than me, I get insecure and jealous if he gives any women (excluding his relatives) attention.
What about the other way around. You're more attractive than he is conventionally, do you feel a certain way about it?
@Kroovy if I’m more attractive I’ll feel like it’s less likely other girls will take him away from me.
@rienna888 That's true to a certain extent. Don't use it as a crutch, though. You still have to treat him well.
I will agree because i have heard ladies make the same statement loads of time.
However, there will always be a few of us that like our men equally attractive.
False cause i seen ugly women with cute guys and yet pretty woman roll their eyes on how did she get him. So depends on career part to being experienced lollipop sucker always win. Lol if you know what I mean.
