People are pretty damn shallow when it comes to relationships. Most people will deny this vehemently, but we all know deep down that we judge people based on their appearance every single day of our life.
I mean you can deny it, you can disagree with me or say I'm stereotyping or even that there isn't anything wrong with being shallow. But that doesn't change the fact that most people are shallow.
It isn't just men either, women are just as shallow as men are. Infact, women on the whole might even be more shallow than men because they can get away with being more selective. Most women say they want a nice guy and most guys say they want a smart or caring woman, but when you get down to it only a nice appearance really turns heads.
What explains this?

Because attraction/emotion for the opposite sex is embedded in us for one reason and one reason alone: procreation. Thus no matter what modern culture may have us thinking we want, we will always choose the one we want to f*ck the most.

Even shallow people are not usually equally shallow to everyone.
I do believe many women DO want a sensitive guy, but that means a guy who is sensitive to them and their needs, not a whimpy wuss crying about his own issues. Most women want manly men and those manly men are hopefully sensitive to the woman's hopes, desires, needs etc.

That is the way the world works. Deal with it. I bet you reject others based on their appearances too. Don't act like you are an exception. A wise man once said, "those who act holier than thou are the furthest from being holy". You wouldn't go out with any person that you do not find attractive and neither will they. Rejection is a part of life. Reality sucks, blame God.
If you want people to see your inner most beauty, then you need to better package yourself to make people stand up and notice. If you are unwilling to work with your appearance to make yourself more attractive, then enjoy being lonely. Looks get people interested in you, but it is still the character that keeps them coming back to you.
And remember, "One person's dog is another person's babe".

it is in our nature to select partners that r physically attractive. we r made that way so that we could find suitable mates for reproduction. as society developed and we became more "civilized" we started using other critiria to find a mate. because many ppl remained mateless, the term shallow arrived to give an excuse. but the bottomw line is always nature.

I agree with you, people should not judge on other people by looking at them from the out side only. we should look deep inside the person
