Do I have high standards for looks?

[Anonymous]

I’m a 26 YO male.

Essentially I only need 2 things to be attracted to a woman-

She has to be slender
She has to have a face I find very pretty

That’s basically it (as far as looks go). I suppose in my age range too etc.

Sounds fine to me. How’s that working out for you?

I never had “standards”, but it seemed to work out just fine going with the flow. Eventually, I met my wife (who is smoking hot, and intelligent by the way), and I never had to think about standards. Sounds like you’re overthinking things a bit.

Eh, I don’t know anyone who finds dating easy honestly. Only people getting regular “”dates”” are people hooking up and that’s more so because neither party is picky there.

I’m 5’10, decent face, 150 lbs, so lean but not fat at all.

Worst negative is an alopecia variant I’ve had since I was a teen. I wear a full custom wig and honestly it looks amazing. People really are shocked when I share.

Honestly, those aren't high standards. You should be fine.

Just seems like finding dates is hard these days.

Obsession with looks serves no purpose. Someone told me that the guy I was seeing has a brother who is WAY more attractive, etc., like a movie star. I laughed bc I know about the infamous brother and said the guy's face or body doesn't matter as much as what's in his heart. I'm happy to keep my distance from both the guy and his very pretty brother.

I think it’s very telling that my comment above makes you think I’m obsessed with looks.

You have to be physically attracted to your partner, or it is only a friendship not romantic or sexual etc.

I listed only 2 traits that are must haves; slender and pretty face. Didn’t specific in the weeds… and you think I’m obsessed with looks…

The standard is okay, everyone has their own standards, but it must be balanced with their values too.

Right but I mean these are dealbreakers, like no personality could overcome a girl lacking these. It has to be these and personality/commitment etc

Sounds pretty basic to me man.

No, your standards are just right.
