nah, no way. it's what's on the inside that makes one happy, and those who look good now, won't do so soon enough

Not necessarily. Good looking people can make others feel insecure or jealous and have that to contend with. Good looks alone are not enough.

No, take it from someone who is a model, just because you are good looking doesnt mean you are guaranteed a happy life. There are so many other factors that contribute to a happy and healthy life. Things that are much more important. In the grand scheme of things, looks count for nothing. Looks alone, dont get you a bf or gf (they may get you a random hook up).

GrimmReality agony auntOne might say that to some degree that is the case. However, time creeps up on us and what happens to those options once we get older and less good looking. Then you have to rely on your brains. For too many people in the world that is a scary proposition, not only to themselves, but to innocent people like me as well! lol

sugar_sugar agony auntI think maybe when people are younger physical appearance is likely to be beneficial. The good looking guys in high school will get the girls, get the friends with very little effort. It doesn't always equate to being successful later on though as they've never really had to work for anything, and in the real world things don't always come so easily.

Recently two guys I know were both interested in me. One of them is exceptionally good looking, and a couple of years ago I probably would have went for with him for that shallow reason, now that I'm older and a little wiser I found the other guy much more appealing based on his personality and the interaction between us.

Looks might get the attention of someone immediately but there are a lot of attractive people out there, so it takes far more than looks alone.

Lilly Rose agony auntI think yes good looking people, seem to get more in life....its not a good thing but i think the world has got so Superficial....but even though yes good looks will get you more girls and even friends more attention, doesnt mean there be nice girls or even good friends, everyone is attractive in there own way, thats why its good just to be who you are accept yourself and be confidence, as confidence is just as good as having good looks!
