would want to marry?

Title says it, really. Why would God, who knows all about us before He gives us life, let someone who will inevitably, truly, with all their heart want to raise a family be so ugly that no man would want them?

With all these kinds of "why would god" questions (e.g. why would god let a child suffer, why would god let injustice prevail, why would god let people die of painful diseases, etc) there are 3 options:

1. He does not want to do anything about it

2. He is unable to do anything about it

3. He does not exist

If it is 1, then he his no good god. If it is 2, then he is no omnipotent god. If it is 3... well, then everything pretty much happens by chance and/or nature's trial and error.

So, to answer your question, I challenge your original premise - the fact that you assume there is a god that knows us and gives us life. There is absolutely nothing to back that assumption (unfortunately).

As with everything, we are dealt the hand we are dealt. Some good people are born handicapped, some have mental deficiencies, some have horrible diseases, etc. Meanwhile some bad people have it all. Its terribly random and terribly unfortunate. Its life.

That being said, there is often more to things than just looks. I dont know how old you are, or what you have been through, but the possibility of finding someone is only limited, not precluded, by "bad" looks. There is a lot that can make up for it in terms of personality, attitude, energy, etc. and some guys (particularly later in life) will see through that.
