As a psychologist, I can tell you that there are people who look very good in a group, but they're very different in a one-on-one situation.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
There is a long list of psychology research demonstrating that appearances matter more than most us would care to admit. As shallow as it may be, better-looking people have been shown in various studies to have higher self-esteem and more charisma, are considered more trustworthy and are better negotiators.
Different people bring out different aspects of ones personality.
People who produce good results feel good about themselves.
You can know a person is a good person or a bad person by who they are, not by what they look like.
Have you ever noticed when you look in a mirror, unless you're really depressed or something, the person in the mirror generally looks a little more competent, a little more curious, a little more intelligent than you actually feel yourself to be? They often look more interesting and more soulful.
I definitely see the good in people. Certainly in my own life I strive to be somebody who is functional and well adjusted and can face conflict in a non-emotional and non-destructive way, and those are the people I try to surround myself with in my life. But as characters, they bore me.
Some people are more fluid than others at just being themselves and recognizing what's good about themselves.
People might look great on the outside but they all have something that they're dealing with.
Good-looking individuals are treated better than homely ones in virtually every social situation, from dating to trial by jury. If everyday experience hasn't convinced you of this, there's research that will.
