Well I'm not going to lie it's not something I'm attracted to; but it isn't a deal breaker, guys can still look really good with acne; and I understand the struggle because I've had acne since I was about 11 (I'm 19 now), tried all kinds of things to get rid of it and nothing seems to work :( . So yeah; obviously there are some girls for whom it would be a deal breaker, but I'm sure there are just as many who'd be understanding + not let it bother them. I think it's kinda stupid that Patriarchy leads us to frown on guys who wear make-up (and this isn't just about me having a thing for guyliner!); because I feel wayy more confident just covering my acne with some concealer and I think guys should be able to do that too if their acne bothers them

Honestly, even though people might notice it, if they get to know you, they will look past it and not notice it anymore. When I see a stranger walk by that has bad acne, yes I notice... but I also sympathize because I still get acne. (notice my age and stupid hormones!!)
Anyways, just be yourself and if a woman is going to reject you because of some blemishes, she's not worth your time!!
Good luck and I hope your skin heals-up for you soon! :)
I don't really mind, in fact I like it. I have a lot of acne and have ever since I was 11, so I know the struggle. For me it has destroyed all self confidence I have and caused me to spend tons of money. But I just cover it up. So having a guy who understand the problems, and gets that it's not something that can just be cured with face wash then I'm in love
Honestly I don't notice it. I mean I do se it but it's not something I focus on. I know that it's not something they can do anything about, and that they probably have tried. I too have suffered with very mild acne. My problem was oily skin not so much pimples, but I think that I because of that simply just look pass acne.
Well I always assumed they thought it was unattractive but my girlfriend recently told me that she thinks it's cute if a guy has some.
I know I'm not a chick but I used to have acne but when I changed my diet it disappeared.

If it's like a few pimples no big deal, but if it's like full on pizza face no bueno.

www.kondoodee.com/.../Moderate-acne-on-face.jpgMy ex boyfriend had acne and I couldn't care less, the only thing that botherd me was when his acne was coming off, like it was ready to pop and it sometimes would fall off. But some people have hormonal problems or genetics so acne shouldn't be a huge problem in dating when you can't help it
Honestly, it's kind of a relief. Because then I know that I don't have to be perfect, either. When you're with a guy who NEVER breaks out-it feels like you have a lot to look up to. Imperfect guys are the best. =)
There was this guy that had his face full of acne his neck and a few on his shoulders, it was quite disgusting to look at it to be honest. Why don't you use some very good creams? Like proactive, I think it would help a little day by day.
I'm 18 and have really bad acne!! I wouldn't say it's a turn off, if he's a really sweet guy who treats me good, I wouldn't care if he had the worst acne in the world!! :)
I don't care about Acne on a guy if he doesn't care about mine, so over all, it doesn't matter, most everyone gets it, it can't be helped of you still get it later then others
I've mild acne and it doesn't really matter to me. Just go to a dermatologist and they'll give you some medicines to get rid of them. Eat healthy, exercise, drink lots of water all these helps
I'd recommend see a doctor if it bothers you I used to have it real bad.
acne is fine. my bf has acne and i think he's gorgeous. so does my best friend and he's gorgeous to. acne's no big deal.
Its not a big deal.
Acne is a temporary thing. Even bad acne is a temporary thing.kinda of a killer for me =/
