Brilliant high IQ thought I just had about ratings

[vanillaicecream]

Ok hear me out

Say you rate yourself a 3/10 and someone else rates you a 5/10, you may jump to the easy conclusion that they think you're actually 2 full points about your self perceived rating and the your real world results will follow from that, but that's wrong

In reality people may still treat you the same way you expect a 3/10 by your own standards to be treated, your social perception and dating success won't change a bit, anything you expect to experience as a 3/10 you'll also experience as a 5/10 by someone else's standards. The difference in numbers is just a scale mismatch, not a difference in lived reality. Your internal 3 and their 5 may map to the same social outcome, so the number itself doesn’t change anything. Ratings are just a cognitive shorthand, not the causal factor in social treatment.

Please try to keep up because as the smartest forum user it can feel very alienating, but I dumbed it down for you guys.

That's why the best rater is always yourself

 

[Ghoulish]

Yeah but they could also just find you better looking than you find yourself.

Impossible to know. THATS why just go off of how others treat you

I genuinely don't see how ratings offer anything of value to anyone, i consider them to be mental gymnastics and potentially misleading because they depend on the subjective experience of the rater, people should focus on identifying their failos to form a protocol in order to look better and thats it

Even creating halos via surgery is a stretch and is generally not worth the risk considering that women don't need to desire you to offer their pussy to you, now this depends on how much validation from your partner matters to you for sexual gratification of course, but id be careful with it

Good take though, a shame that i am leaving the forum very soon, you seem to be a very smart user, would have liked to chat a bit.

wow such high IQ, yet all it says is "don't expect the lived reality to change because you realized you were maybe a bit wrong about a number"
