I dont think it matters so much.

I remember looking over at a girl sitting at a distance from me and thinking 'she's so ugly, who would ever marry her?' ( I was pretty stupid and immature back then) and then after an year or two, she didnt change much, I dont think she changed at all, but I wouldnt know, and I got started talking to her through a mutual friend and I remember talking to her over lunch one day and she was saying something and looked really cute and I was thinking 'I'd ask her out this moment if she showed as much as a sign that shes interested in me that way'

That day I understood it, deep inside, not the superficial thought, that theres more to beauty than looks.

Beauty is like first impressions maybe, it can only help you so much and it doesnt really matter if you have the other stuff that really matters.
