I have a problem finding a boyfriend and I think it may be because of my appearance. I am 162cm tall,weigh about 65kg,I have long blonde hair,blue eyes and I dress nice. I am told by many people that I am actually beautiful but I have trouble believing it because it is really hard for me to find a boyfriend. I do take care of my looks but I'm no supermodel. My good friends and family told me they think I'm having difficulties with this because I don't want to go for just a one night stand,I want a serious relationship with a normal guy. But I feel like nobody will even try to get to know me because there are so many prettier girls than me out there. Pretty face will be gone,but a good woman will always be a good woman. So is appearance really the main factor for a guy who is choosing a possible girlfriend? Just thinking about it makes me stop pursuing anyone ever again.

I don't think her friends and family were encouraging her to have one night stands. I think they were trying to say, that's what a lot of guys want. At least, I hope so!

Anyways, appearance is a big deal. But everyone finds different people attractive. Even girls who aren't considered the prettiest can get a great boyfriend so it's not ALL about looks. It's really good to take care of yourself and put effort into how you look, but obviously, it's not all about that.
I think being attracted to someone is the first step, then you get to know them and you either have feelings for them or you don't.

So just keep your head high. You're only 20. Keep your standards high and don't stress out.
A lot of girls start feeling insecure and bad for themselves when they can't get a boyfriend easily. But then that lack of self confidence will show.
So don't be that girl. Don't be that girl who doesn't believe they are beautiful JUST because they don't have a boyfriend, that doesn't define beauty.
You'll see beautiful girls who can't find the right guy for them. Then girls who aren't the most attractive to find guys.
Don't rush, just take your time. It won't happen overnight and it'll take awhile to find a guy worth your time.

Yes,you're right,they were not encouraging me to do that,they were just explaining that a girl as serious as me won't get a boyfriend easily because she doesn't want to be an easy one.
