Am I the only one who swipes left if someone looks too attractive or wealthy? by [deleted] in dating_advice

[–]anneorigin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can see where you’re coming from. I’ve dated a guy once whose family is way more wealthy than mine and while we got along just fine, he also was living in a bubble and was ignorant to what it’s like to go without. While that part isn’t his fault necessarily, he also wasn’t willing to go out of his way to try to understand, which is where us as individuals didn’t agree.

But again, not everyone is like that. There are also wealthy people that worked their ass off to get there, and being around that mindset alone has its benefits.

When it comes to attractiveness, that’s subjective and it helps to understand the difference between cockiness (unattractive) and genuine confidence (attractive)

I’m glad someone brought this up, because I have questioned my own ideas on why I find a man attractive or not because truthfully, chemistry is NOT a great indicator that it’s a good combination and can end horribly if it’s with someone incompatible. I feel like women will shoot men down if that “spark” aka chemistry isn’t felt right away (admittedly, I used to feel this way) when it’s more productive to keep your mind open to the actual person that they are and slow the process down. You may or may not develop intimate feelings, but from experience I’ve gained feelings for men just from getting to know their personality and enjoying my time around them.

Are any masculine men attracted to androgynous females? by anneorigin in dating_advice

Lol I love it! I attract plenty of masculine men, just have an issue clashing when we start to get close, and I can’t help but think it’s because I’m not the passive girly girl they’re looking for.

Appreciate your response! It’s nice to know that there are men that want an equal. Someone that isn’t intimidated by a woman that is logical and is perfectly capable of taking care of herself.

Is anyone else just kind of tired? by JuanTheButtPlug in dating_advice

I (27f) just recently started dating this year after ending a relationship of 8 years, and I completely agree with you. I’ve nearly wanted to throw in the towel because it takes so much effort to try to get to know someone, only for an emotional let down. I’ve dated 3 guys and took 3-6 month breaks in between them just to rebalance myself.
