if you think you are ugly, thats fine. Make money. Plenty of money, then you can compete with the fine boys
see jay-z and 50 cent. mike jones, 3-6 mafia, olusegun obasanjo

So women don't exist who'll take me for who I am -- not what I am, or what I can contrive?

They do exist, but if you want a beyonce/halle berry/ catherine zeta jones you are using the wrong search words.

I think Zebudaya is right, there is no such thing as a rich ugly boy,
Well personally, i'm someone that admires beauty so i think it might just matter on a date but it shouldn't be the only criteria for choosing a life partner.

Good looks matter, oh yes they do. As they say "beauty is in the eye of the beholder".

A date should go beyond good looks, to make it work, humour is also important. Imagine you have this gorgeous dude but is so boring, he hardly makes you laught and makes any funny comments, whatever, It won't be worth it.

I have a friend who likes thiz dude, he is all that, talks nicely, texts her occasionally, and he aint all that bad. Atleast he makes her smile once in a while. He's not half bad though but he aint to die for either. My point is, looks aern't all that in a date. There should be more things than just looks.

Besides looks alone will not make the relationship work, if it needs to.

HELL YEAH
make u dey date person u no go fit talk outsid elike dis is my girlfriend cos she Fugly as hell
