Would you date someone who's not exactly your type but you find them attractive and have a great connection with you?

Question

I think as long as you can have a great connection, you shouldn’t be afraid to get closer to someone you might not have originally planned to be with. Relationships are not an exact science, and meeting someone a little different to what you are used to can help you rethink what you believe to be the most important things in a relationship.

Yeah. I would. Dating isn’t exclusive. You might as well. Sure I date with the intentions of marriage. But I also need to see who I’m compatible with.

If it does not work out. Then it doesn’t work out. Or maybe it does. Never know unless you try.

Being honest. It might depend on some other factors.

This is my current situation in a nutshell. He’s not a guy I’d go for in the past, but he makes me happy In every way. Sometimes it all comes down to realizing your original type is not a healthy type for you to have

Debbie14217 · Accepted Answer

sure why not try... you won't know unless you try it

NathanDavis · Answer

yes... but that is because I do not really have a "type" nor such strong preferences that would make me discriminate some from others

all of my girlfriends have not been all the same kind of person, nor looked all the same

mayur1598 · Answer

Ya why not... maybe restriction on specific type would keep you away from something much greater...

Twalli · Answer

I don't have a type. If I find her attractive, I will date her. Obviously I have preferences, but I don't hold them as requirements. I like red hair on white girls and the body type of Asian girls. Yet I don't only look at redheads or Asians when looking for someone I may want to date.

slatyb · Answer

Not exactly my type? If they have a great connection them they are my type.

MCheetah · Answer

I guess? If they're not my type, what would make me find them physically attractive, though? I don't get it. I mean, if we value each other's company though, then sure.

Kreneman · Answer

I have been in that situation many times but I will not do that again because emotional feelings get hurt almost every time especially when sex is involved.

TacosRAwesome · Answer

yes of course, though I don't think I really have a type.

Valso · Answer

I don't understand how can that work - for someone not to be your type and yet you find them attractive. Both things go hand in hand and can't work on their own. For me to find someone attractive, they must be my type.

TheUniqueOne96 · Answer

Yep, as long as the actual requirements click.

Berethor · Answer

Maybe, at the age 35 I don't expect perfect, I am also not sure if I have a type.

magiusX26 · Answer

not willing to date at all but besides that, attraction level is the only "type" i have ever had.

BJP21 · Answer

Good connections are hard to find these days, see where it goes, it may surprise you.

Asker2022 · Answer

I wasn’t my ex’s type and let me tell you, never date someone you don’t like.
