Woman Says “Stop Dating People Whose Faces Have To Grow On You”.

I recently met a guy who was nice but severely obese. Now, I’m a slim and fit woman and I’ve never been attracted to overweight/obese men. I battled in my mind whether or not to date him but I finally decided not to. I made that decision because I know that if the tables were reversed, he wouldn’t date me. Men never compromise and date women who aren’t their type. So us women need to take a cue from men and refuse to date men who aren’t our type. We should match their energy!

A friend of mine who’s pretty and very thin dated a 300’ guy; He treated her like crap and said he couldn’t date her because of his security clearance (she’s Russian). Of course, he did this AFTER xes. You did the right thing by not dating that guy who was obese; imagine how low you’d feel when even he treats you badly and doesn’t appreciate you?

[@morganhairston6548]

This is extremely true. Society never tells men to lower their physical standards on women. I always see men who literally look like Beetlejuice talking about they only entertain IG baddies, or won’t date single moms. Society lets them thrive in as much delusion as they want, but if a woman has standards they’ll be the main ones telling her she’ll be single for rest of her life.

You made the right decision. I had a similar case in the past and DID date imo not attractive overweight gamer dude for 3 months in an attempt to prove myself as not being shallow... Let's just say I could barely tolerate a kiss 😂 it was never easier to abstain as a Christian so after 3 months I dipped and swore never to make that same mistake again. Worst part of it was... He ended having no sense of identity or personality too other than being nice and sometimes cracking a good joke or two, so Idk what the heck I wanted to achieve with this pick of a man child 😂smh 🤦🏽‍♀️

As a middle-aged woman, I’ve noticed something over my lifetime: the average woman is MUCH more attractive than the average man. That’s why they tell us not to be picky, but the odds are that most men we meet will be below our league to begin with. That’s just facts and a lot of men haven’t figured it out yet. Ladies, please know your value.

[@Laoriginal718]

Where do yall get this from? Average people are just that…..average and average looking and that’s ok but average looking women look the exact same as average looking men. It’s rare I see an attractive person. Most people are average and have no “wow” factor.

[@DearStephanieX]

I’ve realized this as well, women are just generally prettier as a gender. That’s why when I do see a good looking guy on the street, it’s something to get excited about because it’s rare 🥲

[@martaleszkiewicz5115]

But doesn't that mean in practice that most women will just end up having to date below their league?

[@addaiboakye4324]

⁠@@Laoriginal718I think this comes from the idea that women typically take better care of themselves, like grooming, styling, practicing self care more then the average man does because of the effort they put into themselves they tend to look more attractive then men even if their face is average.

[@melchiorlise2466]

The obvious problem is that not everyone can date attractive people (since not everyone IS attractive). And I don't know why but the world seem to operate under the assumption that everyone needs to be matched with someone, that there is a sock to every shoe and people of equal level of attractiveness (or lack thereof) should be paired up.

[@jessicacharlton7347]

I hate the idea of a man having to "grow on me", because he isn't actually attracted to me. I'd think most men would feel the same way. Can you imagine how bad it would feel to find out that your significant other doesn't find you attractive? I don't think you're doing a person any favors by trying to force yourself to be attracted to them.

After being in a toxic situationship with a guy I found wildly attractive, I tried dating guys I didn't find attractive and giving them a chance to see if their personalities would shine through. NOPE! The unattractive men were WORSE. They weren't romantic, they didn't compliment me, didn't have any problem with putting me in inconvenient and unsafe situations for our dates, etc. The only unattractive guy that at least made me feel desirable quickly became extremely sexual and love bombed me (we didn't meet in person, thankfully, and he ended up blocking me because I wasn't willing to stay on the phone with him for hours and entertain his constant messaging.) So yeah... if God wants you to be with a man, you'll find him attractive.

[@thinkinginn7443]

Abit of storytime. Went on a date with a guy that while he was definitely the same guy in his profile, was less attractive in person due to those photos being out of date. I’m talking 50lbs heavier, balding, dry patchy skin, and overall looking like a foot as opposed to the cute guy from 5 years ago. Initially he said he knows his appearance is ‘abit’ different but he’s working on himself to get back to how he used to look. So I figured maybe he’ll grow on me. I’ve never been so wrong. Each time we met I found something more off-putting about him and his personal grooming. He started showing up in wrinkled old hand-me-down clothes, and I discovered had been using expired skincare because it’s from his parents. I didn’t want to kiss him, I dreaded meeting up. By date 3 when I asked how was his self care journey going, he said he abandoned it. He said, and I quote, he felt like he didn’t need to since his dating life is going well ‘so far’. Despite at that point being the only girl that was still seeing him (one girl left the date upon his arrival), the second he thought his personality was winning me over he abandoned trying to look decent. And I wasn’t attracted to the man in front of me. I called it off because I was already feeling resentful and manipulated. Oh and in the beginning when I asked why he didn’t use more up to date photos, he said he was too self conscious and the one photo he had wasn’t getting a lot of results. He wasn’t attracted to the few women that did reach out to him. So this guy knew he was currently unappealing to women, and used photos when he was more attractive to entice women on dates. And if he’s willing to misinform a woman at the beginning, I can only imagine how’d he’d be in a relationship. Men date women as they are, we should do the same. If you don’t like a part of that guy, don’t wait for him to grow on you. He’s a person, not a fungus 🤮

[@melchiorlise2466]

You dodged a bullet. The fact that he thought he could win you over even though he knows he is unattractive is disturbing. Not because it's impossible to look beyond appearances, but because a man who believes attractiveness is somehow "optional" for women can't have a lot of respect and a good understanding of them.

The biggest issue is that ugly and handsome males all eventually act the same way. I don’t know if it’s just a modern thing, but all males I’ve met in the dating scene have been acting badly no matter what they look like or have financially.

My Grandma always says Think about your DAUGHERS when you pick a man based on looks. Because she said she refused marrying an ugly man even despite the social pressures of her time. Not just for herself because she didnt want to wake up from a nightmare only to look at a night marish face but also because we live in a *society* and women do get judged and treated based on their looks, it affects their self worth and self esteem and it is unfortunelty also their social market value wether we like it or not (yes i hate it here) so she picked herself a pretty boy man. And lucky for my mom, aunt and uncle she did because they all ended up looking just like their father and are pretty. ANd besides looks he was also a great provider, active and enthusiatic hands on care taking father (there was no sepration of labour for him, he just did what needed to be done without needing to be told and was happy to do so, he was also an active grandad). Grandpa did not settle in any era looks, finances, personality, love (the man was a "simp" for my grandpa and he knew it and was happy to be). People keep telling women to respect themsleves and I agree but for different reasons not the "slut shaming reasons", but in terms of not settling, dont date people who are shady, not atttractive to you, but treat you great not good GREAT. A man that respects and honors you as a fellow human being and also as a woman he is dating. And honor and love wholisticaly body, mind, spirit and hear.

Wholeheartedly support this message. A common theme I've noticed in this discourse is that dudes push back if women have choice AT ALL. So, there's a ton of social conditioning directed at women to settle in every aspect of life. As women have gained more financial independence in the last couple of generations, women are no longer required to settle for scraps simply to survive, so they aren't. I say all this to say that yes, women absolutely should stop giving men a chance when she isn't genuinely into him. And if you happen to feel some kinda way when you actually reject someone or you get friends or the dude telling you you're too judgmental, just remember it actually is new in history for women to HAVE choice when it comes to men and learning anything new can be uncomfortable at first. Push back or discomfort doesn't make this approach wrong, and in fact should probably be expected. Women are definitely going against the grain when they hold firm to standards, which is a fantastic thing because the grain in question is oppression.

Wanted to give a flipside to the argument: I feel like at first glance, people assume this about my bf and I. What they don’t know is that we instantly clicked on the first date and the attraction was just there. My friends don’t see why I find my man attractive on the surface, but that doesn’t mean he isn’t to me. If you find a good guy and YOU find him physically attractive, don’t let other people convince you otherwise. We all know what it’s like to not be into someone. So trust your gut to know the difference versus relying on social validation. I.e “will my friends/other people think he’s cute too”

[@rene3759]

it isnt really the flip side it is still on the same side of being attracted to the person you like not just personality wise but also physically. Yes, there is objectively good looking people based on the beauty standards and also unconventionally attractive people but on top of that people also have their individual things they are attracted to physically. The point is not get the hottest guy so your friends or peopel can be impressed with you or so that you can say you have the objectiely hottest guy. The point is stop forcing women date men they are not attracted physically (obviously also personaity wise but the video is focusing more on looks) and i 100% agree and I think you do to. Women shouldnt have to settle on attraction and have someones face grow on them or learn to love it. Like you said you and your man were attracted to each other from the get go that is perfect. How others perceive your attractivness is irrelant what is important is that you are attracted to the person. Because it is also settleing on looks if woman is coerced into dating idk Hugo boss model because "but he is objectively hot" eventhough she is not attracted to him.

I don't think this was the point of the video (though you are right). If YOU think the person is attractive, that's 100% the only thing that matters. I think this video is saying that some women will date men they don't even find attractive in the first place, and that leads to problems down the road. But again, you are right: social validation doesn't mean anything as long as you both are compatible.

[@KeraJaay]

I literally did this with my child’s father. I wasn’t instantly attracted to him and he wasn’t my type (white guy, I prefer my people to be with it makes more sense to me lol) I tried to get over those feelings but his personality showed itself to match his looks too… I couldn’t stand that man, everything about him made me angry, and the things he was doing behind my back explained why I felt off about him. Attraction never grew it actually demised when he gained more weight than I did during my pregnancy and I didn’t even want him to touch me. I knew I was settling and I had to go.

[@bohotumbleweed8319]

Oh shit I already did it. I went Frida Kahlo: "If i have to ask for it, I already don't want it "

[@bellacortez]

I remember having to argue my position that mens looks matter with friends and my mom and hearing the old " if he treats you well". First off, men never treat the same after marriage or dating for a while. So that guy who " had to grow on you" is now just ugly and your giving cheating a thought. And on top of that girls tend to like their dad. Why would I do my daughter dirty if I know her dad isn't attractive?

[@becca53444]

Just looking at most successful couples will tell you that people naturally date others equally as attractive as them. The most attractive people pair up, and the average looking people pair up. The below average people either date other below average people or spend their lives chasing people out of their league and wondering why it doesn’t work (it doesn’t work because they feel insecure all the time and let it destroy their relationship). Don’t be the girl they chase as some ego boost.

[@PileofAshes53]

I only found 2 men in my entire life, attractive. They wanted nothing to do with me because I was too ugly for them. My ex husband had to grow on me for a while but in the end even he didn’t want me. And the guy was butt-ugly if I am being for real. If I limit myself to only just a “handsome prince charming” then there is no point in dating anyone. He’s not out there checking for me. Yes, there are people like me who finds 99.99% of all men repulsive. Even if they look somewhat alright, they say some dumb crap that turns me off for good. To me, a brilliant mind is much more important. That actually can get me going. Surface level stuff is temporary anyway. Looks fade.

[@melchiorlise2466]

I respect your opinion, but it only works if having a partner is a non-negotiable high priority in your life. For a lot of women having a partner is now optional, they don't need one no matter the cost. So if they are fine alone, and a man would only be a bonus to their pre-existing happiness it makes sense they won't settle for someone they aren't attracted to. And even though physical appearance wasn't a major factor for you you did admit to feeling attracted to your partner. Which is good, but most women cannot develop attraction based on intellect and personality even if it is good enough for you.

[@LoveCompassionPurity]

​@@melchiorlise2466I was with you until you mentioned personality is not good enough. A man of good character is everything(and rare). If women can't find that attractive then that's on them.

[@melchiorlise2466]

@@LoveCompassionPurity Personality is very important, but it's not everything. Few people can develop attraction based on personality alone. And I'd like to point out we only ask that of women and never of men. Men can admit to want an attractive partner, they can admit that they wouldn't date a woman who looks like Gollum, no matter how good she is personality wise. It would do good for women to be allowed to say the same thing without being called shallow. Women are allowed to want to be attracted to their partner. They are allowed to want someone they are attracted to from the start and not someone they should make an effort to find attractive. Either you find someone attractive or you don't, and if you don't it's ok you don't have to force yourself or wonder why that is, there's no "If you don't find personality attractive it's on you" bullshit.

I made the mistake of trying to “work with” a dude I wasn’t incredibly physically attracted to because he was intelligent and funny and seemed nice; turns out he was a charlatan and I cussed him within an inch of his miserable life citing every flaw I observed about him.

I made a massive mistake of dating someone who always had a hat on, and after like a month of dating, I saw him without his hat for the first time, and he looked completely different and was balding. Like seriously looked so cute with the hat on, and looked totally different with it off and once I saw him without his hat, I was not nearly as attracted and just kind of talk to myself out of it. Mistake.

[@maenad1231]

I’ve heard a woman say some things I understand: she absolutely loved everything else _(height, grooming, style, behavior, lifestyle, personality, health consciousness, hobbies, values, how they treat them &!others etc )_ to the point it would be highly unlikely to ever find anyone she LOVES everything else about perfectly. Then she ended it by saying something like “when women’s husbands getelderly we all probs will go through having to allow his new face to grow on us” - that part seems really true. So I get it in some people’s situations

[@FOXKING504]

I bet she don't love everything about how he treats her and others

[@chloelageaux769]

Looks are important but so is character and integrity! Most very attractive ppl KNOW that they are attractive! Therefore, they are NOT in a rush to settle down AND some are so vain that they believe that they can treat you any type of way because you should be glad to be with them!

For the second girl that claims that she wasn’t attracted to the guy she dated last year why are you keeping a photo of him? If you’re not attracted to if I’m not attracted to someone I’m not gonna keep a picture of him

[@Childfree334]

Maybe she is keeping that picture to remind herself how stupid she was and to NEVER settle again.

[@justjackie4394]

Because she could have forgotten to delete it? It could have been a photo saved in the text message history she had with her friends. Or she could have gotten it from his social media.

[@Paulina-h7y]

But the attractive men can stilk treat you like shit. We women should be the main character and don't settle for any type of male that doesn't respect us or that doesn't take active steps for a emotional,respectul and wholesome relashionship.

This idea of someone growing on you comes from back when ppl were arranged marriage. And the bible, I think, if someone has all these bad features look for the positive and compilment their good feature.

That's why I say NEVER claim a man. Women don't understand how much free promotion we give these bastards by even letting them talk to us in public. I don't let men post me on social media and I make it clear I don't want others knowing we deal with each other. I refuse to let a musty ass male get any play off of my face. When you're a really pretty woman or you take damn good care of yourself financially you have to really watch out for that shit.

Yeah, you shouldn't have to close your eyes to get through it. Was catfished by a guy who looked nothing like the picture he posted, like at all. Might be the only decent picture he took and it didn't look like him. BTW he turned out to be a serious jerk and he had the nerve to criticize me based on appearance when I uploaded a real picture of myself. Remember his picture wasn't even close. Later found out he was talking to many women. Glad I got out of that. And some of these women he was talking too contacted me, so yeah karma. And he kied about how much money he made. Hell he just lied about everything. Women get medsage we should be the "beyter" person and let giys to grow on us. Yeah, men do not do that. Why should we? Nope.
