RE: Benefits of Dating Someone Less Attractive

I just learned that this article is focussing down the use of the word "attractive" to exclusively "looks".
I thought, that ANY human feature could be attractive to the other one, if fitting is with his/her search focus...
If only, the author of the article had explicitely used 2 words in his article : "attractive looks", it would have made sense from the start.

And even then, even when exclusively focussing on this topic: what happen to be 'attractive looks' to you, may be way different from what are 'attractive looks' to me ! I for instance know that I totally scream away from classic industry's photo model pinup girls. Horrible, to my personal 'attractive looks' standard ...
And whatever you and anyone would fill in here.

So, I find the article a bit disapointing. Too gereric. Ever had a look at "Gauss curves" ? Almost every single human feature seems to fit under such a representation of statistical normal distribution. In other words, there is always a majority (called NORMAL = not a mindset word, but a math reference...) and 2 fading minorities, for every single studied detail in the human set of biological and pschological features... ....then, make up a large pool of all relevant properties, for instance here, all possible properties that have to do with 'attractive'. You'll find there is existing a unique patern for each individual. All on it's own, without trying to influence it by articles about "Benefits of Dating Someone Less Attractive"

RE: How to Be Happy in 8 Steps

Jealousy and competitiveness are totally unrelated. Using them in the same sentence is asinine. Jealousy is unnatural and is invariably a symptom of neurotic insecurity, whereas competitiveness is necessary and a highly sought after quality that is most often found in men (lesser in women as they are on average more agreeable) from the beginning of our species. The two have nothing in common. I'm sure most women would be attracted to a an ambitious, competitive man rather than an docile unmotivated slob.

RE: How to Be Happy in 8 Steps

Yes, all want permanent happiness. This is not only unattainable, but this constant need to attain or become is what sets up the unnatural and the human body reacts. It's the cause of all of man’s stress and anxiety.
Science has progressed insofar as to demonstrate that free will is an illusion. Any actions you take or believe you choose are the result of prior causes; such as the cooperation of a hundred billion of neurons in the brain that occur without you being conscious of them. This leads people into the fallacy that they have free-will and that they are some locus of consciousness inside the brain “steering the wheel”. You have as much control of what you are going to think and do next as you have over breathing and the creation of red blood cells in the body. Trying to get answers to questions pertaining to happiness is futile. Following someone else's advice, as though they know when they themselves probably don’t even know what’s good for them! That's how ridiculous this is.
The constant striving to be happy or to be anything than what you akready are creates all our so-called problems. This is simply due to the fact that we're fighting with ourselves non-stop and for an unfortunate majority, only death will relieve them from this dilemma.
As long as one has the desire to be happy, he/she will never be. When we realize that happiness and pain are actually two sides of the same coin; in other words, there cannot be happiness without pain, we cease trying to do anything. We can observe the vicious cycle we were caught in, much like watching a bad movie for the fourth time. What is happiness? It's an idea conjured up in the mind. A mere thought. If anyone has a fundamental understanding of the mind, you will come to realize that thought is the cause of the majority of our suffering. (if you pay attention closely, you will realize that thoughts cannot be controlled and are random). We are not authoring our thoughts. That would require you to think them before you think them. See for yourself. Wait for the next thought that appears (out of nowhere, into consciousness. Did you choose the thought? Everything is a happening.

The body will take care of itself if you allow it to. To conclude it must be made clear that articles of this nature cannot solve anyone's problems. All this self-help knowledge including the ridiculous article above will be seen for what it is. Junk, Nobody can give you what you want. This is something to discover for "yourself". Perhaps the author has good intentions, but what he/she doesn't realize is they are contributing to your miseries. The moment you follow a method, you’ve already created conflict. When you cease this obsession, and let everything happen as they’re supposed to, you may find peace and see that whatever actions you take are right actions.
