I don't believe that being relatively more beautiful than others necessarily helps you have a happier life- I'm sure it is a factor in how you are treated by others, but as far as directly having more confidence I think it could be argued either way- that being constantly told "you're gorgeous" would just set up a lot of insecurity if you start to not hear it as often, would make you wonder whether you are valued for your intelligence/personality or just for your looks, make you feel weird that you're being complimented for something that is genetic- like your biggest accomplishment in life is being born with the right genes.
