How bad is an 8/10 rating for looks?

[Anonymous]

From someone you know, not a random stranger online or anything. Feels kind of crappy.

He tells me I'm "sexy and beautiful", but then a mere 8? Doesn't quite add up

[Sillte]

Haha, I've been in this exact situation. And then you start thinking, yeah but probably if he says an 8, then he thinks a 6, but he just doesn't want to hurt my feelings.

STOP those thoughts, don't ask about that kind of silly stuff. There is no good answer. If he would have said 10, would you have believed him? You know you're most likely not a 10.

He says you're sexy and beautiful. You're hot to him. If you're confident you're even hotter than any 10 girl walking around insecurely. To be honest, looks can only turn a person on for so long. There are many people who have cheated on their SUPERHOT partners, with people who are regarded as a 6/7 whatever.

It does add up. Trust me, sexiness and beauty doesn't just stop at your looks. It's your attitude, your personality, the way you move, the way you look at him, talk, the way you love your own body. The way you get horny around him, the way you tease him...

I could go on and on. I think you get the message?

[Asker]

Makes sense. That's not what I want though, I want legitimate physical attraction - that's not an 8

[Sillte]

An 8 is real high though. It kinda depends on your scaling. You probably rate everyone you are physically attracted to a 10. Guys fuck everything thats above a 5. (Ok very generalized, sorry guys) Maybe even lower. 8 is like jackpot. 10 is pornstar fake.

Moreover, think about this. You will get older, even if you're a 10 now, you'll become an 8 in just a matter of years. If there is more than just your beauty, he will stay. Otherwise he will leave you as your beauty vanishes...

[Schnitzel]

Arnie is a prime example, that maid was below a 4.

[Sillte]

@Schnitzel Lol, had to look it up. Nice example.

[Markfish]

Want legitimate physical attraction? Tell me... do you consider him a 9 or a 10?

[Wonderer89]

5 is average. Straight middle of the line, not gorgeous but not unattractive.
He’s rated you above that. 9’s are models, actresses - people who are PAID for their looks.
10’s are unicorns.

Stop being so pedantic and accept his compliment

[Asker]

I've modeled and was PAID for my looks, so...

[Wonderer89]

But you’re not now so...

[Asker]

Salty. Because I had other aspirations in life. There's no need to bash other women. At least I have been paid for my looks, that's more than most can say. Can you?

[Wonderer89]

I always love how women think presenting opinions or facts they don’t want to acknowledge means someone is jealous of them.
It’s common for women to lose some of their appeal as they age, that’s simply part of life. Given that you’re no longer sought after for ur appearance (and I’m not talking about some local/state catalogues or department runways because as you should well know 9’s don’t stay there - they’re pushed higher as their appearance is their value while they have it) my statement still remains true that you’re not paid for your looks.
Your aspirations may have been higher but obviously that didn’t extend to mathematics and how averages work, as shown by your disgust over a mans rating.
I don’t need to defend my appearance darling. I’m happily average and have no problem putting my face to my opinion - which is more than I can say for you but given your attempt at trying to put me down for it I wouldn’t expect less from someone with insecurities such as yours.

[azzntittiz]

I don't think that's bad, that's the score I give myself. I also was rated seven and a half and eight on toospoiled. com when I was a model, very few people are nines and tens do not exist in my opinion.

[AMEL2332]

u dont have to be a 10 to deserve great stuff or to be loved u have got to be u there r many 10s there many 9 or 8 but there is only one like u which is u thats enough fuck numbers

[Shakazo]

Rating makes me tired. We like or we dont like. A rating scale to judge potentially 7 billions people. Come on. It is a non sense. We are not great all the time. Depends the clothes, the time in the day, the sleep we have. If a guy rate you. Run away. Women are not objects. and a homework.

[Schnitzel]

Your attitude probably removes a few points tbh. Asking for a perfect 10 rating at our age is a bit delusional don't you think? But sure, by all means, fall for a guy that is gonna lie to you under pressure to keep your ego afloat.

[Asker]

At our age? No. Ratings are subjective. And honestly, I live in a college town where people often mistake me for much younger. I don't buy into the whole I'm washed up because of my age thing

[Schnitzel]

Well, honestly, you are going to have a very hard time when reality catches up. Time waits for no one, as they say.

Are not disappointed in yourself? You seem like a slave to other people's opinions when it comes to your looks, which is a very unattractive quality. Would have loved to have seen your face when he said 8/10 though. 😉

[random56286]

8 out of 10 is pretty damn good. For me at least, there is no 10. That is the ideal. Half of the world would be 5 and under. That doesn't leave much room for the others so an 8 puts you ahead of nearly everyone. Besides, this is a superficial and individual rating and mean very little in the scope of life anyway.

[Deukalion]

It's very bad to be an 8 get a pillow and start to crying. First at all you must like your self then take other people opinions, why you have so much insecurities it's not be possible to be liked to everyone , one day you are 8 the other day you are 6 and the next one you are 10.

[Asker]

I do like myself. My problem is that if a guy rates me only an 8, he must not be interested in me, though he claims to be. You don't rate a girl you're into as an 8

[Deukalion]

He can be interested in you even if you are 7 the numbers can rise and fall.

[DeeWitDaTea]

This can vary for different people, I can be in love with something, looks and personality n they will still remain a 6. I guess I rate low, but your mature enough to not have to worry about ratings or labels so don't stress to much. Its just a number

[Sillte]

I love your maturity at age 15! Really. If you can use this ratio in the rest of your life, you'll come far. :)

[huskyxp]

Holy he said a mere 8? Contradiction lmao. Maybe he just confused

[Asker]

Are you being sarcastic?

[huskyxp]

I mean like i dont know why he said "mere 8" because an 8 is amazing. Saying "mere" is like "meh" in my understanding

[Asker]

Lol no, I added the mere part. 8 feels shitty

[huskyxp]

Gosh, 8 feels shitty. Feels good to be in your shoes (Sarcasm if you didn't get that).

[Razzmataz]

Breh think of a 10 being like Arianna Grande or like Kylie Jenner or some shit thats like me getting mad because I don't look like captain America with my shirt off

[TheOnlyAndy]

I would be more than happy being an 8, lets be fair 10 is unachievable as that is Photoshop perfection.

I wouldn't want to use a number for a friend as people are more than looks.

[Anonymous]

8 is high up there, which is good. However, maybe he doesn't want to seem too eager and don't want to give a full 10. Least it's not a 1. I would not give a guy a full 10 tbh

[WhoDatGuy]

Talk about ungrateful. 10s don't exist. you've probably only ever seen a 9 once

[Asker]

So 8's are average, see every day kind of thing? That's nothing special

[WhoDatGuy]

You clearly aren't getting this system 5 is average

[Asker]

Yeah, I know but if you see a 9 maybe once according to you, then an 8 would be common/ordinary

[WhoDatGuy]

You've been a model, but not a mathematician!

[Asker]

Thanks for the clarification 👍

[pleasestopthis]

Very good as you're above 5. Your ego might be hurt that he didn't give you 10 out of 10, but an 8 is pretty decent.

[USA1960]

An 8? Heck, that's pretty darn good. Wish I was an 8.

[Highlander984]

Very good. That's "The Girl Next Door" and "Take Home To Meet Mom" level.

[Asker]

Lol, "girl next door" isn't good. That's a plain Jane. Thanks though

[Highlander984]

Jennifer Aniston and Sandra Bullock are my two favorite 8's if that helps?

[Asker]

Out of curiosity, who would you consider to be a 9?

[Highlander984]

Heidi Klum is a 9

[TheLorde]

8/10 = 80%. If I got 80% on a test Id be fucking happy

[MJ_13]

I think you'd be hard pressed to find someone who's a 10/10. Concentrate on the words, not the number.

[Mears]

It’s means he seem you only as friend 👀

[Sillte]

Bullshit.

[Asker]

I think there's some truth to this. Like guys will still obviously smash an 8 but they'd never be content. They'd always be looking for that upgrade. If a guy is really into a girl, he'd rate her higher

[Mears]

Alright it’s not bullshit because every time I know a girl get rated an 8 the boy usually will say your really funny or you seem really nice your a good friend etc. But if he hit you with that HMU more then he’s interested in getting to know you girls do the same damn thing. If it’s a causal conversation or funny and y’all only talk more in school then it’s mostly friends.

[Anonymous]

Lol ur even worse than me; even more perfectionist xD got 6-7

[ThatPersonOverThere]

What makes you think 8/10 is bad?

[Asker]

To me it just says "meh, I've seen better". If it was from a stranger it'd be fine but not from a potential romantic interest

[ThatPersonOverThere]

But surely you realize with the BILLIONS of women in this planet he has in fact seen better right?

Would you be happier if he said that you were 100/100, meaning he's lying and just telling you what you want to hear?

So which is actually preferable for a woman, a truth that isn't what you want to hear, or him just saying whatever it takes to be with you?

I personally think that once they hit 7/10 they're attractive. That's just me though.

[Asker]

I don't want a guy that thinks I'm just barely attractive. While, I respect the honesty, he obviously doesn't think of me the way a man should

[Natazz]

Well it's a pretty good rating

[genericname85]

5 ist average, so 8 is pretty damn good.

[Jessington]

8/10 is brilliant in my book.

[Anonymous]

you should slap him next time he says that.

[Markfish]

99% of people are not a 9 so...

[Asker]

So... I'm just like everyone else to him. Great.

[Markfish]

I see this a lot with girls, it's like they need to be seen as the most attractive thing on earth, they want to be lied to. A person who is an 8 is very attractive (though it is somewhat objective). I doubt you are even an 8, he is already telling you what he thinks you you want to hear.

[Asker]

Not true. I've never been rated that low. Maybe not the most attractive thing on earth, but I should be special to him and not just another basic average bitch. If that's all he thinks of me, then he shouldn't be pursuing me, he should go do better

[Markfish]

Wow you are narcissistic. Tell me... do you consider him a 9 or a 10?

[Asker]

That's not narcissistic. Ratings are subjective. When you're interested in someone, you don't see them the same as you see everyone else. They're supposed to be different. I wouldn't waste time on someone that I didn't consider a 9 - 10.

[Markfish]

And is that 9 or 10 rating you give him based soley on his looks?

[Asker]

Yes, but it is also MY opinion. Hence, the ratings are subjective thing. Why waste time on someone you see as 'less than'?

[Markfish]

I doubt you saw him as a 9 or 10 from the second you layed eyes on him, if you didn't it isn't based on purely looks. I don't go for someone who I think is a 9 or 10 because I know I am not a 9 or 10, there is little chance they will be attracted to me. Yeah you may say it's subjective, but looks very often aren't.

[Asker]

So, he went for me because he thought I was achievable? That's sad, no one wants to be just the best someone can get. Sad thing is, he only rates himself 3-5

[Markfish]

If he only rates himself a 3-5 I doubt you thought he was a 9 the second you layed eyes on him.

[Asker]

We do tend to judge ourselves more harshly than others do

[Markfish]

Yeah but 3-5! People who are 9s know they are attractive and wouldn't think themselves lower than a 7.

[Anonymous]

WHAT HAHAHAHAHAHA LOL women

[Asker]

What?

[Rick912]

An 8 is very good. Average is a 5.

[dragon9669]

Anything ove 7 is fine in my book

[jon28805]

8/10 is a good rating.

[Seppelson]

8 is pretty good I guess

[Jordynxox]

8 is pretty good

[SuccessfulHornDog]

8 is great.

[CT_CD]

[Nice222]

8 is not bad.

[Asker]

[Revolver_]
