Is this true what they say...as my friends said it last night, that a guy will only go out with ugly girls because he`s insecure, and he wont feel like that if she is ugly as no other guys will fancy her? Surley that ain't true.

LazyGuy agony auntIf a person is very attractive others might well feel they are out of their league.

No point in going to that which you cannot obtain. When I go shopping for a car the Rolls Royce dealer doesn't get on the list because I know I can't afford it so why even look?

I wouldn't immidiatly label this as insecurity although it is related, but isn't it more just a healthy sense of reality?

But on the whole, I find your attitude deeply insulting. What if he/she has an accident and is disfigured, should they then be dumped because of their looks?

Are looks all that matters? Should a perfect 10 guy be condemned to go with perfect 10 women no matter what their personality may be like?

Whatever happened to love makes blind?

Those who suggest insecure guys only go for ugly girls are very close to saying that the quality of a woman is only in her looks. The better the man the more he should only go for her looks?

Call me a hopeless romantic (given up all hope of romance counts doesn't it?) but I prefer to think love is far more then just looks.

If a guy is insecure he is insecure. Being with a girl

ugly or pretty doesn't change that. People who are insecure

tend to be jealous of everyone no matter what they look like.

everyone makes their own definition of beauty...love is blind.

guys do feel more comfy with a less atrractive girl because theres less competition. But sometimes guy love a challenge, depends what kinda guy you want really...love is 20% looks and 80% personality.

i dont think they go out with ugly girls cuz they r insecure about themselves but because they r single while all their friends have girlfriends and they just want to fit in. Or maybe, just maybe they think this girl is pretty. Everyone has different tastes. Remember that.

Sugarbuns agony auntThis is true of some men, yes. I've known a few really cute guys who ended up with really ugly women and everyone was asking WTF is that all about? So yes, it is true for some men, but not for all. There are some men who only want to be seen with pretty girls because they treat them like trophies, something to be displayed and shown off. And they like it when other men gawk and drool over their trophy woman. It makes them feel superior. Then there's the normal guys who will actually fall for you because of your mind, or the way your wrinkle your nose when you laugh. These are the ones you want to hang onto because they're not insecure, and they're not arrogant about their trophies. And you'll learn to spot them once you have more experience with men. Good luck.
