Can someone please explain the theory that guys are more likely to commit to a proper relationship with a less good-looking girl than a very good looking girl and just sleep with the really good looking ones but never have a proper relationship with them?

Laura1318 agony auntThe men feels threatened by sexy and beautiful girls.She will have many admirers and will tend to stray or attract other men. She can also be high maintenance.

These girls are like party girls, fun and sex and not the marriage kind.

The plain looking ones are marriage material.

Justme:) agony auntWell, i dont know if you are refering to yourself as a good-looking girl or a less good-looking girl, but my theory is that boys think most good-looking girls are just like sex toys. Im not trying to say ou are, but all of the good-looking girls in my class hav the boys touching them inappropriately and calling them "fine" and wanting to sleep with them. Mybe they think that's what good-looking girls like. Most of the good-looking girls I know are really like that too.

Also, the less good-looking girls are sometimes the type that will put their foot down. Maybe to boys, if a girl is less good-looking she isn't someone who he he would want to run ad sleep with right away. Maybe less good-looking girls give the impression of someone who wants a steady relationship first. If you are one of the good-looking girls then maybe that's just the way boys see you. It could also have something to do with your personality, because tho it doesn't seme so, boys DO actually count personality as a factor.

There is a new girl in my class who is from Cuba and she is "good-looking" and much more "developed" than the rest of us. I'm not the most gorgeous girl, tho I consider myself to be pretty. I would probably be called a "less good- looking pgirl" because of the type of person I am tho. There is a boy who likes me and wants me to be his girlfriend, but he likes to touch the new girl and has tried to sleep with her. I know if she ever did he would maybe just toss her aside then come back to be my bf lol. Its just boys, they just think like that sometimes.

He just likes her for her "looks"

Im not trying to put you down, I think it's just how the boys' minds think. Hope I helped though, I often asked myself the same question :).

I don't think that this really happens as much as you think it does. Are you considering yourself one of the good looking girls? maybe you intimidate guys, but that can be more about your personality than your looks. Are you friendly? I think men would chhose a nice, friendly, average looking girl over a better looking girl with a snobbish or unfriendly personality. I am not saying that you are a snob, I don't know what you even look like. But I used to be very good looking, and I had an unfriendly personality & no guys in school would even talk to me. I know now it had to do with my personality.

hlskitten agony auntPeople see different looks in different people. But i know what you're saying to a certain extent. I dont think thats always the case, in fact i think its the minority. But maybe some guys think less traditionally good looking women would be a safer bet, as guys wont be hitting on them?

Just a guess as im a female!

I think your looking at it all wrong. Just because you don't think there girlfriends are good looking doesn't mean they don't.

I have a friend who is really beautiful and a nice person and she's been with her boyfriend for almost a year. Neither of them have ever slept round.

A female reader, LethalInjection-x United Kingdom +, writes (16 August 2007):

LethalInjection-x agony auntThere could be lots of reasons for it. Some guys generally don't put really good looking girls in the same field as others, hence treating them differently. Some guys might even be scared of being in a relationship with a very attractive girl as she'd get a lot of attention, meaning more competition for him, meaning he could never relax completely.. hence settling with a less attractive girl who he feels he can have without the need to compete. Another reason could be that they think more attractive girls are "sleep-arounds" ? Or have bigger egos, vain, think a lot of themselves, no time for anyone but the mirror sort of thing? There was a survey about it recently.
