Hmm, this is tricky..

Physical appearance : Asian.. (60?) I have quite a bit of scars on my jaw line, thanks to the acne problem I had about a year ago.

Wealth : Average? At least here I think.

Still a student. And my crush is studying the same course as I do. Just different class.

Me : 60 | 60 | 60
Girl : 90 | ? | 60

? for unknown. Wealth unknown, just assume she is rich, her house looks nice.

We're studying the same course, haven't proceed to university yet. So I won't rate it high.

Ok, my next question is important.

You see her as   90... vs 60...  that is more than 1 standard deviation apart

Realistically,  you have to close that gap with SOMETHING..



Because it's very hard to Prove that you're significantly smarter than she is in a short amount of time (the dating window).

You can only Cover your shortcomings in physical appearance by WEALTH..   

--- If you are truly exceptionally smart, or capable of becoming so,  you would engage that intellect and turn it INTO wealth, AS PROOF  to her that you've got your end of the bargain.

--- This type of -exchange- has been proven through research by the fact that in most cases, women who make more money than the men they're with will break it off with them or be dissatisfied with them unless the men have PROOF of equivalence such as a PHD/research at a university, DESPITE not making much money from it.



Now,  the GOOD NEWS is,   since this is ASIA..   It's possible that your perception of her is greatly altered by  Cosmetic surgery OR Make-up OR both

The question is,  HAS she had cosmetic surgery ,, or wears eyeliner  ??

Either one of those factors is  minus 15 to appearance..    they make a huge difference.


If we assume she has had both..  that would make you  60 vs 60


And if she is silly enough to think make up and cosmetic surgery  increases her ACTUAL worth as a genetic specimen (w respect to mating odds)  then she's stupid,  so  that's -30 on her intellect.

Which means you'd have again covered the gap..

TP4,  you nailed it!!

Well, let's clear up things a little bit. Using the score system is good in the situation that can't really decide anything. But once everything is broken down, it's quite ridiculous in some ways. I will rate her appearance as 90. Well, the beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I won't say she is as pretty as those models or whatever. Just natural beauty, minimal make up and have a hint of pink to her face naturally. Like the kind of beauty that you won't get fed up with.

If I am to slot in the most beautiful girls in the world, she is probably about 80. I really don't know how much I should rate her, it's biased anyway.

Other than those that you stated, I think the personality is important as well. At this phase, I'm still waiting and observing. I'll probably move a step further and start talking to her soon.

I was going to respond to the "Dexter" thing:

The season with John Lithgow as the bad guy was the last good one.

When they had Tom Hanks's son and the staged weirdnesses, it got pretty lame and plunged downhill.

I followed through to the end, just to see what would happen, and, although I thought that Hannah was white-hot sexy, in a crazy-bad-scary way, it was ultimately lame and unfocused.

All too many of these "CATV dramas" start out as fascinating "plot-driven" shows, but after a couple/few seasons deteriorate into "character-driven" parodies of themselves.

PS - I think that men assume that it is: (1) appearance, (2) intellect, and (3) wealth, and wonder why women are so materialistic.

CalvinXC..

The brain is a differential calculator..   There is such a thing as preference, but within the majority of your PROXIMAL population, these preferences ALIGN..   Which means, it's quite clear who has "how much"


you must not confuse how you FEEL about her with how much she's worth, and concurrently how much you're worth.

In evaluating the compatibility, you have to look objectively at the problem.. and take the market into consideration..


Those 1 off romances of the story books DO OCCUR in real life..  but research says -bonds- which were forged under heightened or extreme circumstances do-Not-last..    exp < guy saves girl from falling off a bridge >  Guy's a bum,  girl's a princess,  they go out for a week, breaks up.
