Beauty Only Skin Deep

[benlemieux2003]

Hey man, glad to see you and Mike are doing good You're giving hope to us all!

To answer your question, I would absolutely NOT date someone for the hotness.

I'm not gonna lie though, I certainly would want someone I date to be good-looking. To pretend otherwise I think it's hypocritical.

And hotness is not exclusively physical, it's also a question of strength of character.

I've dated extremely good looking guys and most of them were totally empty buckets personality-wise. Dull as hell. The entire time I'd hang out they'd give me that catalogue model stare which is hot for only like 10 minutes.

So basically yes, there's a physical look component that initially attracts my attention, but they certainly don't need to be Greek statues to me. And on top of that, they gotta have a very strong personality to back up their character I noticed.

I think looks play a big part in initial attraction or noticing somebody for the first time, but I find different things hot at different times and on different people. So even if I don't find them hot at first sight, maybe I like their hair, the way they walk, talk or smile.

In my opinion the inside should at the very least equal the outside. An attractive face/body etc without an attractive personality/character will do nothing for me. I like people for who they are, not just what they are or how they look. If I fancy someone, I will find everything about them hot.

Beauty is not only skin deep, but it is subjective. It means different things to different people.

Life isn't a game show. I've never had three people placed in front of me - all with very simple and easily understood attributes ("This guy's rich and ugly...") - and was told to pick one to date.

I went out. I met people. If they interested me, I'd try to get to know them better. Their looks and their income may have factored in somewhere or other, but other things were much more important.

I wouldn't pick. Just like the Bachelor.

If you are talking serious relationships, a dude I would consider, would have to be at least 8 out of 10, when it comes to looks.

Empty and shallow? Probably, but I depend on beauty and would not even consider an 'ugly duckling' on my side. It's my life, so I get to choose, rite?

Broke? If he is broke because he gambles, drinks and generally overspends, no looks and no hotness on the face of this earth would ever help him. Nope.

If he needs some help to get going, I'd gladly consider that. If two determined and half-way smart dudes put their minds together and start working at it, lots can be achieved.

And yeah, the single MOST IMPORTANT thing. I have to be in love with the dude. And love is fully inexplicable.

Call me shallow, but I wont date a person thats poor or "does not take of themselves".

I went on a date with a guy once that couldn't afford a cup of coffee. Sorry but that's just pathetic. Get a job.

By "taking care of themselves" I mean they actually care about how they look. Im not saying they have to be an adonis, but I am a firm believer that your body is a temple and it should be treated like one.

I'm not trying to date a complete slob or anything... but pretty much as long as we can be happy together, it doesn't make too much of a difference. I've never really wanted more than just an average life, I've never had dreams of extravagance, but I sure as hell wouldn't mind it. ahha
