What I have found out is that people's personalities are nurtured by the circumstances that surrounded them while they were growing up. Studying some of my friends, I began to realise that most of them were products of their environment and situations that occur frequently in their lives. Their attitude towards life has been informed by certain things that happened to them in the past and left indelible imprints in their memories. These attitudes are also very much connected to what they look like physically and this is the definition of who they are.

This situation results to two extremities, it is either the young man descends into depression, becomes hateful of others or choose to constantly strive for that one thing that will eventually make him special and stand out among his peers. The unattractive guys I know have compelling personalities, you would always love their companies because of their beautiful minds and with time, you begin to see beyond the physical as you begin to listen to their minds. They are usually more caring, more attentive, conscientious, usually because they do not wish to hurt people as they know what it feels like to hurt. Some of them are geeks who prefer to evolve some day by developing their minds.
Then we have the very attractive guy who has received everything in life on a platter of gold. While he was a child, those ladies sharing gifts at parties would look for him to hand him his personal parcel or even go to his house to drop it if he had left before time. He was coddled by teachers, parents and most especially the girls around him right from he began to have wet dreams. He did not have to hustle hard for important things in life because a pleasant face was always interesting to look at and people would always give him things easily just to get a chance to see him again or have him around them. As a result of this, he has not been given a chance to develop himself as he sees no need to. He may become shallow, indifferent, lazy, vain and very dull. Academically, he is usually average and if he happens to have a good or expensive education, then we are all in trouble. Depending on the kind of crowd he mixes with, he thinks girls are toys because he gets their attention even before he opens his mouth. He believes he deserves everything and his desires are his rights. Most of them are players and slackers.

However, whether attractive or not, you can never go wrong with a guy with a beautiful mind. You learn from them every time they speak, how they act, how they relate with others, how they respond to those they care about and what they make their priorities in life. As for me, I'll always choose personality over sexuality, good character over the best stud in bed, content over appearance because like a very wise man once said, looks will fade but character endures the longest..
