Is it true that attractive people only fall in love with other attractive people. And that less attractive people only fall in love with other less attractive people. Just wanna know, thanks....
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, i.e. attractiveness is a relative thing. What you consider to be attractive is not necessarily what I think is attractive, and similarly, someone I think is attractive, you may be repulsed by. I don't think it's true that there is any correlation between how attractive someone is and how attractive their partner is, or if there is, I don't think one determines the other, I think it's just coincidence.
Given the choice, which you do indeed have, would you rather be with someone who was hot or someone who was homely? To answer your question, love isn't something we can always plan the outcome of. It may be a pleasant thought to be madly in love with a guy who looks like Josh Hartnett but chances are it won't be happening unless you are equally as attractive. It is the process of natural selection. The human genome has in its code to mate like-minded, and by extension like-looking, partners to produce offspring who will fare better than others so that the species continues to evolve. On a more ethereal plane, sex for the sake of sex is little different in its choice of partners. Beauty begets beauty.
I agree with Iggy. Just remember that physical attraction ain't everything in love. I mostly value character, as I definitely wouldn't want to be with a girl (even if she was Elaine Cassidy) whose character would be awful and her manner abrasive. What you say happens but I don't think it's deliberate.

I would not say so; some of the most attractive people end up with the most unattractive, and don't care about their looks because of love.
Beauty depends on the judge; What I find beautiful someone else may find ugly.

Beautiful persons can attract beautiful and other people
I think most unattractive people like attractive people, but end up with unattractive people.
Most of the time.
no, everyone has their preferences and everyone is beautiful in their own way. just worry about what you find attractive
