Is the only way to get a boyfriend is through being attractive? And if you aren't naturally, spend thousands on plastic surgery to be?

Well it would be a lot easier to make this call if there was a picture of you. We're going to talk honest now.

We are very superficial people. And of I know, people will argue and say things like personality matters and it's your confidence and so on, but there are millions of people in the city. No one has time to say hi to each and every person. It's just not possible. Most people will pass you by never even knowing who you are. Appearances are the gateway to that hi. Personality may make them stay but it's undeniable that looks make them come. This is all doubly true when you refer to the gay community. There is a huge emphasis on looks, anyone who says otherwise is lying.

People will act as if the concept of ugly doesn't exist. But let's be honest, we've all passed that person on the street, the one that makes you double take because damn, that face is unfortunate. I don't doubt some of your issues have to do with your personality but a large portion of it may be your looks (key word MAY). So based on that, I'm going to make the assumption you truly are ugly and don't just have abysmal self confidence (like I said some sort of picture would help).

In that case, will plastic surgery help your problem? Yes. It absolutely will (assuming it turns out alright). If you are more attractive you will be approached by more people but, remember, personality makes them stay. If you have the money for it and are aware of the possible consequences and want to go for it, hell go for it. It might end up fixing your self esteem issues...or not depending on how deep rooted they are. It's your life, your body, get the most out of it in whatever way you need/want to.
