How attractive do you think you are?

I'm not everyone's type, and not every girl is my type, so I'm going to give my score relative to the kind of girl I'm into.

For me, this is an undeniably attractive girl (8-10 on same scale) age 21-25. Intelligent and mature, but with a healthy sense of humor. Passionate and self-assertive when it comes to her own goals and interests. Good social appetite, but plenty happy on her own. Would rather wear something comfortable than trendy. Would rather talk current events than celebrity culture.

I'm lucky, because I think I fall pretty cleanly into the category of guys these girls go for. I'm 23 and live in New York City, for reference.

Aside from being only 5'8", I consider myself pretty physically attractive. I have a good face (multiracial), a well proportioned body, and I'm naturally toned/muscular without being "bulky". I dress cleanly in fitting clothes, but I don't care too much for looking "cool" or trendy (jeans, leather boots, and a white tee most days). I have good posture, clear skin, and for hair I have that manbun thing with the shaved sides going on.

Physical attributes aside, I'd like to think I'm also decently up there in the ranks. I'm intelligent, and girls tend to say that's the first thing they notice when they talk to me. I'm also very confident, but I think this is mostly due to the success I've had. I dropped out of college at 20, but it was to run a web company I'd founded in high school (been coding since middle school). I'm now 23 and in the seed stage of my second startup (sold the first), and money is something I haven't had to worry about for a few years now.

I'm wealthy, but I don't really live like it. I don't care much for luxury, and most extra income I have goes to my parents' retirement funds. I use the subway and have no interest in owning a nice car. I prefer a comedy night at a local bar to bottle service in a noisy club. My favorite past time is playing video games and the most money I've spent in the last year is the $3k I put into my new gaming rig. I'm shamelessly nerdy and buy early tickets to all the comic/video game conventions in my city. I'm definitely a workaholic, but it's because I love what I do, and I tend to have a very positive disposition because of it.

I'm attractive. I'm 23, but I've worked hard enough to not be self-conscious or in a perpetual state of existential crisis about myself (and my relationships). I love what I do and don't have any financial worries. I'm generally excited about where I'm going in life. What's not to like?

I give myself a solid 9/10. My girlfriend of 4 years disagrees.
