Alright ladies I’m really not shallow but here we go….. if he checks every box (tall, healthy, in shape (ex pro athlete, now a coach) incredibly kind, super sweet, his mama is cool, no kids, very well off) except he’s not exactly conventionally attractive *hangs head in shame*….. *deep sigh*, what do I do? I really want kids…. Little girls often look like their daddy. Do I keep talking to him and try to give him a chance? I really am ashamed to even be thinking like this y’all.

Then he doesn’t check every box ‘with his u*gly *ss…’ - that’s what you will be calling him as soon as he slips up. It’s not worth giving up in my opinion because once he starts acting like he’s fine … oh will you burn inside that day.

Also perfectly fine to want cute girls… have a look at his sisters if he has any.. that will tell you all you need to know.

This happened to someone I now! Dated a not so attractive man, she was gorgeous. He eventually starts feeling himself and cheats on her several times. Ugly dudes get gassed up when they have a pretty girl and sometimes become insecure because they know they caught a good one!

I’d go for that unless he’s missing a front tooth and even that we can get dealt with.

How important is physical attraction to you? That's what you need to decide. Make a list if you have to. Rank all the qualities that are important to you, and then decide if physical attractiveness is worth giving him up. For some people it is, for some others it's not. But don't make this decision based on fear that you might not find another. There are plenty of men in the world, you will find another.

If you’re not attracted to him…. Anything he does wrong is going to irritate you tenfold. I would wait for someone else. Also he deserves a partner who’s excited to be with him and is sexually attracted to him.

You’re right.

You say he's not conventionally attractive is that just his looks? Are you attracted to him because I think there's a difference. He might not be handsome, but you could still find him attractive.....something to consider

Don't be ashamed, this is a safe space- no judgement.
Is time an issue? I'd say give it a go as he ticks a lot of boxes, and if there's chemistry he might start to become more attractive in your eyes (this coming from someone who's exes are tall, dark and u*ly haha. Hubby now is tall, handsome and not dark). Then if you still feel the same down the line, then move on

I think attraction is nonnegotiable because you’re mad at him that’s all you’re gonna be thinking is you could’ve did better but I don’t know maybe I’m shallow and that’s OK I’m willing to accept that. Because I would be willing to forgo one of those other things if he was attractive.. if he was normal height, not short, if he was not in shape, but not fat, if he was kind, but sometimes could be mean, if his mama wasn’t cool if he had a kid or two, and if he was still in progress being better, and is not fully well off. I would choose any of thoseand work around it but attraction is not something of debate because it either you have it or you don’t and I am the one that has to be OK with it at the end of the day

I have realized I grew up in a household where my dad did not treat my mom as an equal. He belittles her, is rude and convinced his way is the only way.

It is painful to say, but some of this shows up in me and in my relationship. I am starting to catch myself, and it to me seems to be more of a reaction than anythjng that is ever intentional.

Wondering if anyone has dealt with something similar, and any success in making changes besides therapy. Cont. in comments
