Are many relationships just status games?

I know 4 religious guys that have amazing reputations at church, but when I see the way they bicker and mistreat their closest friends, it makes me think they are annoying and toxic behind closed doors. I used to know a guy that was very good looking, and he never tried to date pretty girls. I think he realizes some people focus all their attention on building their looks because they know they have no other redeeming qualities that would make them attractive in marriage.
