One thing I'd like to add to the whole debate: Guys (or girls) who won't give you a second look because you don't look like a Sports Illustrated model? They're not worth your time. Not by a LONG shot. There are plenty of people out there who literally do not give a flying fuck about what you look like. And there are even *more* who are attracted to something completely different from the norm.

Attractive is a VERY subjective thing. To take a personal example, my boyfriend is NOWHERE near conventionally handsome. I couldn't tell you whether he'd conventionally be considered "ugly" or not (I don't believe so, but then again I'm not very objective.) And yet, god DAMN is he hot to me. And that works for females too - I had a girlfriend in the past that was quite a bit overweight, and yet to me she was the hottest thing on earth! Sure, we've been taught since we were little that we should be attracted to models, but that's nowhere near the human experience

One last thing, OP - are you really sure that a relationship would make you feel happier? It looks to me like you think that being in a relationship with someone would make you feel better about yourself, but honestly, that's not really how it works. I dated very little when I was a teenager, and looking at my friends in high school and college who got out of a relationship just to get into another... I don't think they were much happier than I was, even if they criticised me because I just wasn't interested in dating. If anything they looked perpetually unhappy about their relationship and kept complaining all the time.
