Choose your destiny: Great body or an average body? But with a twist...

[kevlar]

I guess I'm asking this because I'd like to know what you would do if you were in my position. This is a question for both guys and gals so keep those opinions rolling and polls active!

P.S. I've chosen to have a great body and live with my acne and acne scars. I will not give up what I love (sports, keeping active) to get better skin.

WOW! Great responses guys! Keep 'em coming! I can see clearly that there is a lot of emphasis on having good skin.

Sometimes I would like to have an average body without the acne scars and acne, but I guess I have to do the best I can. I have to let go of what I can't completely control and the happier I'll be.

It's a bit off thread but I'd like to know if girls go for guys initially based on their looks? Ever known any diamonds in the rough?

From what I hear from most girls the body doesn't have to be amazing for her to like a guy, at the same time one of the first things anyone notices is the other persons face. If your face is covered in acne then it would probably be pretty hard to find a girl attracted to that right off the bat. I know where you're coming from and am really into exercise and all that, but your face must be taken care of.

Yeah I like how people can relate to me. It makes me feel like I am not alone in the struggle. It's like strength in numbers. I wonder how (Tips/Techniques) could I do I get a girl to look past all that? Is there anything I can do? Or is this completely out of my control? Hmm....

When it comes to physical attraction, a beautiful face is always more alluring than a beautiful body.

I have to agree to this. I think most guys would! I know it sounds selfish to say but INITIALLY I judge a girl by her looks. But I really fall in love with there attitude and their way of life. If it's fruitful, adventurous and creative I'm yours! I wonder if it's the same for girls? Do you girls go for guys initially by their looks?

This is a hard one seeing as 1) I do have a great body [except maybe for my 5'2 heights] and 2) I've been having minor acne and acne scars for about 8 years now. However I've learned to wear make up that makes me [mostly] look like I've got good skin. But it's pretty hard to make one look like they have a better body [i.e. slimmer] than they really do.

Haha I like how you say "I do have a great body..." ever so casually. It reminds me of that line Ron Burgundy said "I don't know if you know this but I'm kind of a big deal." You're cool.

Hahahhahaha that's funny. I'm one of the rare girls who isn't concerned about losing weight or my boobs being big enough [to help prove it I weigh about 115 lbs and have a 36C cup]

if I was really really hot then no guys would ask me out becuase they would be intimadated

[kevlar]

That's true. I have a confession. I always wondered what it would be like in the shoes of a hot chick. Not necessarily the obvious sex side of things, but the pure observations I would encounter in a daily life. Would I be more sensitive to emotions? That would be cool.
