> For men who perceive themselves as unattractive, I would strongly recommend that you put forth the effort to become attractive, even if your own self-image is that you are unattractive.

In dating, I've always heard two rules:

1. Be attractive 2. Don't be unattractive

What's attractive is very subjective. But what's unattractive is almost universal. Take a shower, wear antiperspirant, groom your hair, and make an effort to be in good physical shape. Men, if you're growing a beard, groom it. If not, shave it regularly. I look back at pictures of my early 20s when I shaved like once a month out of laziness, and damn I looked terrible. #BlunderYears

I've seen first-hand people that believe they've failed at #1, so they ignore #2.
