Yes, there is the fact that a person can see beyond appearance and appreciate someone for who they are. Let's not forget that. BUT, along the lines of your question, there is another reason as well. And it's been mentioned here already. Studies have repeatedly shown that people tend to date (and associate with) people who are, in their opinion, on an equal level of attractiveness than they are. So, maybe the female has a low self-esteem and doesn't think she is as attractive as she is, or maybe she just has a different opinion as to what makes a male attractive than you do. I know there are cases where onodrim would find someone attractive and I think he's nothing more than average. Not everyone has the same opinions on appearance.
