One time a person told me my boyfriend is out of my league. That’s my have been their personal opinion.

Since my boyfriend is the one who asked me to date him I think that likely means he thinks I am good enough and pretty enough for him.

That’s must have been their personal opinion.

Not my opinion.

because some people need excuses for their lack of success

Because they are awful, shallow people

I wasn't really all that in tune with "leagues" until I moved away to the University. There did seem to be a noticeable hierarchy of sorts that was mostly based on the type of family a person was from, and how serious of a student the guy was. A young lady from an upper middle class (or higher) family generally was after a guy with a serious major, and doing well in it, and if he was also from a higher status family.

I knew a guy who had a major that was unemployable and he was from a broken family. Twice he dated women who he eventually got rejected by because of this. One lady he dated until her parents met him and disapproved. Ten years later she married a physician. LOL

It’s compartmentalizing. which is what science does. There are athletes and non athletes. There are people who spend more time on their appearance. I try with three piece suits and coiffed hair…. but it’s not me.

Call that a league? I don't know. But physically hotter is a metric in society.

Can't believe in something that just factually exists. Whether someone looks past leagues is a different topic to them not existing so your boyfriend dating you anyway isn't really an example of them not existing.

Because there are leagues. But looks are subjective blah blah. People just try to be politically correct about things but beauty is more objective than subjective. Its subjective for minor differences but objective meaning in general sense people will agree. That's why leagues exist

They need to blame their lack of success with relationships on something, so they drag out the "leagues" excuse. Of course, in reality, there is no such thing.

[lightbulb27]

creates an explanation for why they aren't good enough.

It's probably false, but can be true

They’re not set in stone like some people think. You can be out of someone’s league and still have a long term relationship. It’s usually because other people outside the relationship can’t figure out why you’re together.

If a short little fat guy, who's ass crack shows when he's picking up the donut he dropped, would you say or at least know he's out of your league?

Because people love the concept of being better than others. People love ruling over others. It's a pathetic motive that many have.

[Heolurt]

Because it's fact. I'm in a league so low no one wants me, no one can even see past my face and get to know me.

What do you mean.

[Anonymous]

Because they exist. If you got it like that good on you. Most people don't.

[Wise4myage]

Because its true to some extent.

[Wise4myage]

But some guys use it as an excuse too.

To value themselves unrealistically
