What Matters More? Looks Or Confidence?

Imagine two people coming up to you:

The first one is a very attractive person.

They are attractive beyond all belief, you instantly want to be near them.

But as soon as you get close to them they retreat.

They are so shy and unbelievable uncomfortable with other people around that they barely manage a stammer when you talk to them.

The second person is incredibly unattractive to you.

You cannot divert your eyes because you keep asking yourself how they can be so unbelievably unfortunate and how someone can be so repulsive to you.

But as soon as you talk to them you find that they believe the exact opposite.

They are so nice, confident, charming and charismatic that you cannot help but laugh, although looking at them is still a struggle.

Who would you rather date?

Most likely the answer will be neither, so asking what matters more is a very subjective question as both matter.

This isn’t something most people will go 0/100 on.

What matters more to one person may matter less to another, but both are important to all people.
