I'm sure this has to be in the Wiki somewhere but I can't find a straight answer.

A lot of people have given me shit for not trying hard enough to socialize or be friendly with others.

The thing is I've already tried many times and it doesn't seem to work.

Dumb bluepill shit like don't be afraid to just make small talk. Eventually it will develop into something.

I actually tried that too and all that got me as a lot of awkward silence after they gave a one word answer that ended the conversation fast.

So yeah... No matter what I do, it won't make a difference coz of how I look.

Btw I only experienced it once but I had anecdotal experience of talking to a guy who looked and talked similar to me.

It was not good. His appearance made me feel uncomfortable and his ugly and threatening face made it rather suffocating to talk to him for every line he said. It wasn't the subject matter, I just was somehow already in my mind not feeling comfortable. As for what he actually said, it didn't matter but having a neutral tone with that face again doesn't make me comfortable.

Perhaps this is how people see me everytime they talk to me? Whats the point of me trying then? After all they already feel uncomfortable subconsciously before I even open my mouth.
 
According to this forum? Everything.

Kinda retarded though, you obviously wont get giga-chad friends, but getting loser friends is easy. Im in a group of losers myself.

Sounds like you kind of judged that guy for being ugly. Not every guy is as superficial as you though.

thats probably what everyone thinks when you try to talk to them also

Yes...thats exactly the point...

Even a person like me who should know better still falls to this behavior subconsciously

So just imagine how normies who don't give a shit about this stuff behave. Thats why I was wondering does appearance already change the conversation before anything is even said? Is it pointless trying to change the way you talk, the way you act etc because people are already feeling uncomfortable about you from the start?

the fact that only losers will be your friend is further evidence that looks even affect your friendship prospects. If you were a normie, you would be in a friendship group of normies. If you were chad, you would be in a friendship group of chads.

Looks permeate into every aspect of life.
 
Yes, because human nature is based upon reciprocating to gestures that offer more than the original receiver can.
 
Men or women are friendlier to attractive people. Just the way it is.
 
Halo effect is real
 
A large role. An overwhelming role at the top and the bottom.
