Xper 2 Age: 29 How do you show interest in a girl when you're not attractive?

(30-35) Why would a guy pursue a fat, ugly and disgusting woman?
I don't know if it's a mental problem, lowering your standards that desperately and badly or what. I'm 265 pounds and this guy approaches me saying I'm gorgeous/stunning/asked if I had a boyfriend which I knew was...
