While I have no experience relating to that circumstance, I have perceived confidence, among other things, to be of more importance to a woman than mere looks.
Odds are if you're the kind of person who believes you won't ever have luck with the ladies because of how you look, there are also a variety of other (related) reasons why you won't have any success. It's really easy to find reasons why you won't, whether it's looks or money or age or 'being too different'.

In the end, it's all connected I think. It's all fear. Whether it's fear of rejection or fear of committment or fear of the unknown or fear of change or all of the above.. At the end of the day, being the down-on-your-luck loser can get to be a comfortable sort of mindset, and it's a lot easier to stay there than it is to move on to anywhere/-thing/-one else.

(trust me, I know...)
