Setting relationship sights too high and missing out of someone real?
I think it is interesting how many times people both male and female will totally overlook someone as a potential boyfriend or girlfriend because they have their sights set on someone out of their league.
I see this a lot a kind of geeky but really nice boy or girls will miss the fact that a really nice but geeky member of the opposite sex has a crush on them because they are too busy fixating on the "hot" boy or girl everyone is after. These people can pick and choose who they date and if they do pick the geeky kid it is often only a short term thing out of novelity.
I also find that quite often the not so "hot" types are just as attractive, sexy and fun or even more so but that it's just not so obvious with them.
I see this happen all the time, like at the moment my friend is totally obsessed with this girl he works who nice as she is wouldn't date him if he were the last man on earth. Meanwhile this other girl we know is crazy about him but a bit too shy to say so and probably doesn't think their is any point in trying as all he does is go on about the hottie he works with, he's blocking his own cock and dosen't even know it.
What do you think about this? -
Re: Setting relationship sights too high and missing out of someone real?I agree but it's more than that, cause some of those geeky girls and boys are really attractive if you actually take a look at them but they don't package themselves in the right way to get attention.(Original post by saey)
Oh yeah. All the time. All that matters now-a-days is how you look ¬_¬
(that wasn't sarcastic. That's how it seems to be)
On the flip side folks I've see who are regarded as "hot" are often just ordinary looking but they wear the right clothes, hair styles and make up. Also they have the confidence which I am sure goes for a lot.
