Good looking people and dating?

Question

Do you find it a bit depressing sometimes when you walk downtown or somewhere and come across an exceptionally attractive person who happens to walk in the opposite direction to you and you know deep inside that you'll never be able to be with them since they're so far out of your league?

Or do you not really care because you think it's just the looks and the person is probably very vain and just looks in the mirror to perfect themselves all the time?

Or do you think of yourself in a confident regard and that they'll be lucky to have you/they're not good enough for you because of your glowing personality while looks is probably all they've got?

Also, does dating (if you manage to get them) a really attractive person also have its big drawbacks too? Such as they might cheat on you or flirt with others when they're dating you?

Interested to know your answers.

Answer 1

Oh, my. God.

I hope people don't honestly think like this!

I'm often told that I'm attractive, and I really don't want that to hurt my chances of having a girlfriend..

[God. Who ever thought they would hear that?]

I suppose I could see it though. Dating someone extremely attractive could have drawbacks, but only if they have the personality to match. I mean, you can't judge a book by its cover.

But I do often times sigh when I pass a cute girl on the street. Not because she's too pretty for me, but because I know she wouldn't give me the time of day. I don't really look anything like the stereotype associated with people that share the same interests as me, which can be really bothersome. I'm fairly sure the interests I like come with plaid shirts [which I like, but don't wear a lot] and really.. obscure clothing. I don't know..

But I always see those really cute indie girls, or butch women, that I know probably won't give me the time of day because I'm such a freaking girl [appearance-wise].

Answer 2

HOT I'm not...and, I've always wondered what other guys 'saw in me'...(I don't really care anymore since I'm happily attached)...but, one of my 'good looking friends' once told me he was always jealous of me because I always went with such 'good looking men'...I had not ever, really, thought about it that way...if we 'got along', then we 'got along'...if we didn't, then we just didn't...  Good looks are okay, however, I've always looked for personality, intelligence, sensitivity, responsibility...kindness...etc...  The man I am with is totally awesome...he has all of those things and more...oh, and he's totally HOT too, so he's easy on the eyes...(evil grin)...

Answer 3

Lol, I know I can get anyone I want (i've used it to my advantage at times). Personally I think I'm an average looking guy, but you know, if people like me who am I to care. Generally, I like average looking people because if they are too hot, I lose interest... Hot people are really only good for flings for me, I never really keep them cuz I push them away.

Answer 4

hott people in my experience are usually a******s like models in stuff are always full themselves. I would rather a romantic average person to sweep me off my feet ya know?

Answer 5

I only get depressed looking at couples at random times because I'm single. I don't really care if they're attractive or anything.  I have nothing against attractive people, I don't think they're vain, per se. I have known acouple, but generally the people I find attractive don't see themselves the same way I do. :) I'm not generally an overly confident person... so I don't think I've ever thought I was too good for someone based on looks vs. personality.

I've dated someone that was really attractive once strictly for her looks.. It wasn't alot of fun. I hate to say it, but she didn't have a good (or even any really) personality. I could have dated a box of hair. :/ I had the worry of cheating in the back of my mind constantly... that she'd find someone "better looking" or more attractive than me. It wasn't a relationship that last long... way too many things against it. It was a learning experience though. I've never dated someone solely on looks again.. :)

Answer 7

No. Just be confident and learn if you can trust them before you allow your feelings to become involved.
