Intrensically I have great taste all the Women I chose I'm my mind that I was attracted to were highly ambitious , inteligent , beautiful in non conventional ways like whom other people won't find attractive at first glance for example.

In my company there was this girl sitting opposite to my cubical a software testing engineer.

I was from a different domain so I grew attracted to her we'll never spoke to her I am shy and it's work environment don't want to end up in HR Room lol.

So I told about my crush to this friend of mine in same floor and colleauge so he saw her and said she's not beautiful and dusky well she was very thin.

Later I found out her name and checked she was a freaking model 😂🤣 Miss Green Earth 🌎 lol she did an advertise of Gold and had some photo shoots.

So I know my taste is great and I am not suitable for them and they might seem unconventional in there beauty and personality but my instincts are great in finding them.

And after I showed her acheivements to my friend she suddenly somehow became beautiful to him as well 😂.

Very rarely, but generally, no. This happens with women (ugly guys who happen to be tall, rich, muscular, uber-confident, etc), but men are more visual creatures. It's probably only like 1 to 5% of the time that a man will fall for a hideous woman solely on her personality. I've had it happen a couple times; I thought she was a 4 in looks, but an 8.5 in personality, and I briefly dated her for a month or two; one of only two women I seriously dated in my entire life.

And that's not to say men don't value personality; but with men, looks matter a bit more. Where with women, men need to have a lot more requirements (height, career success, social status, ego, and MAYBE a nice body), but looks tend to be on the low end of women's priorities.

People intellectually will say that they want someone attractive, hot, successful, this and that.
People morally will say that they want someone with a great personality.

But what attracts one person to another is feeling, when they accidentally fulfill one of your emotional needs. So then you wonder, "Why do I feel some type of way towards this person who is not exceptionally attractive?" It's because they were supportive, encouraging, easy-going, and that's exactly what you needed to feel.

Lionman95 · Answer

Yes because I´m not going for physical attraction as much as after the impact she leaves to me when she´s gone. Some girls that are pretty are often narcisstic or mean towards me because I´m not overly attractive myself. They think they can play me like they want and seem to be insulted when I´m not playing their game.
I´d rather go after the feeling they leave when they´re gone. For me it´s important what kind of personality and what kind of opinions a woman has towards certain topics. The impression she leaves after a first contact is most important though.

When I meet a girl I look to the person on the inside ,, that is the real person right there and she has a beautiful heart and she is smart intelligent common sense beautiful lover feels things deep likes herself love to smile helps others desert does not talk. Crap about anybody did she is a very beautiful person to me the outside is just a bonus and whether anybody else can see the beauty on the outside I usually can did you notice in this world there's a lot of people that get divorced and that's because the moment they see somebody to fall in love with the person on the outside as time goes on you realize who the person is on the inside and they don't like that person. Their relationship has been based on the person on the outside which is just a big mask it's truly not who they are

We live in different worlds, thats why there is a saying " beauty is in the eyes of a beholder" my kind of interest, might not be the next person's interest.

Physically i like girls that are dark in complexion, slim and short.. but i am always willing to trade complexion for compatibility.. i would definitely lust on someone with whom we share similar sense humour.

Sometimes you meet someone you're compatible with but not find them attractive if there's isn't at least one physically quality that attracts you.

To answer your question, "yes it is possible"

exitseven · Answer

Yes. I knew a girl that really was just so-so in the looks department but she was really different an quirky. I we hung out a lot but she already had a boyfriend. After a while I started to fall in love with her and she broke up with the other guy. We went together for almost 4 years and almost got married before I came to my senses.

Most times no. Unattractiveness for men twds women tends to wane the more testosterone builds up and there are literally less attractive options available.

Any man that has gone through basic training of any kind can vouch for this as well.

Hell being around pretty girls long enough they start to lose attractiveness.

Post nut clarity, makes you care less either way.

It depends, is there any physical attraction at all? Personality definitely plays a part in attraction (just like it does for you women), it's not all about looks, but having said that, she doesn't have to be a "model" by any means, but there must be some physical attraction also for me.

CreamySeed · Answer

I recently had this, an online dating girl talked on the phone she was really sweet, kind, gave me compliments sounded very wholesome and level headed but I was not physically attracted to her and felt like shit about that but nothing I can do to change this and ended the dating process. So no you need to be physically attracted full stop.

MrCommodore · Answer

Yes, a few times.  I would call it more of a sexual attraction for a girl who might not be generally viewed as super attractive or stunning, yet something about her is really sexy.

Andres77 · Answer

There's pretty and attractive. They're not the same. I've had a few relationships/adventures with girls that were not magazine cover material, except for a science magazine maybe, and we had much fun.

cth96190 · Answer

No. Unless I wanted her DNA in my children, I was not interested. Simple rule: do not shoot my sperm into any woman whose DNA does not meet the breed standard.

LonelyDeer · Answer

Of course. All the time. Inner beauty is far superior to physical beauty.

anylolone · Answer

Like chicks, nope. Guys mostly function like chicks do, and this isn't any difference.

Avicenna · Answer

Yeah, but the funny thing is that she also starts to become more appealing physically as well.

FilmGuy93 · Answer

Yeah, that's happened a couple of times. For me it was the way she smelled.

Jamie05rhs · Answer

I have, yes. I fell in love with a "7" when I was in 10th grade. (Mind you, back then my standards were REALLY high, as I was quite shallow.)

Hadesheim · Answer

Yes, I once feel in love with such a woman I didn't thought she was looking good at all but she was pure sentiment and that made her the most beautiful woman in the world for me.

zagor · Answer

Not who are unattractive, but to average-looking girls, yes, if they have a great personality.

NibirX · Answer

Yes... I will choose an girl with good judgement metric even she is ugly... can't say about other boys... most often they are not like me... they don't think deeply...
