Have you ever dated a person you didn't find attractive at first glance?

Also... how did it go?

I'm a guy and i've noticed that a girl likes me (her friend, who is also my friend, told me). She's not exactly my type... i like some things about her (both physically and mentally), but she's not the kind of girl that'd drive me crazy at first glance.

I wanted to add i still need to get to know her better. I'd define her as cute but i'd need to see her more.

I know a woman that pursued a guy that did not want to date her and only gave her a chance cause she was so adamant that she be given a chance. After 3 months of dating he wanted to marry her and she had to dump him because he was too obsessed with being around her.

I suppose I'm more sapiosexual, so as long as they're intelligent and witty and interesting to talk to...

[Asker]

sapiosexual or demisexual?

[antelope51]

sapiosexual. I've got more PhDs, mensa members and engineers in my body count... lol.

I married her. At first, neither one of us liked the other, but we grew on each other, and ended up in a pretty good marriage for 20 years, ending in an amicable divorce.

this gave me a lot of hope anyway given my current situation... thanks man

I rarely think about looks anyway.

[Asker]

how come? Aren't there physical characteristics you look for in a guy (like, for instance, a minimum height, a good smile or anything like that)?

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

Yep, I have.

How do u both look

[Asker]

We're both 22.
She's around 5'5, wavy/curly hair, brown eyes, slightly fat (which is a big turn on for me cause i like that kind of body), very very extroverted and cheerful (another good thing). I don't really like her clothing style and her smile (which is the most important physical thing in a girl, in my opinion)... but i'd need to see her more.

I'm around 6'2, green eyes, i take a lot of care of my body (i go to the gym around 5 times a week and i'm very fit... not that i care THAT much tho), introverted.

Having this said, i still have to know her better and maybe my attraction towards her will grow. She surely seems very fun to be around, so she'd be at least a good friend if things don't go as espected.
