Is it bad to date someone out of your league?

Scroll to see replies

It really depends on the couple and how secure/confident they are. Some would say that my ex-girlfriend was way out of my league and that we were aesthetically mismatched. Sometimes I was pleased that I managed to get with someone who was so attractive, but I was also in a lot of disbelief about whether she really liked me for my appearance because of it.

yeh its just happening to me again and Idk
you question yourself dont yeh:?
if I make her happy tho I guess thats what counts

plus she has to keep making me happy too so not like she has it easy p
This is a problem for me , as a male who is in a league of his own.



Spoiler

Unless you're literally on the verge of going bankrupt or utterly hideous, there are no leagues

Sure sure

Nope went to bed early I'm going to watch it now
I studied psychology and accordingly , most psychologists agree that if you are out of your partner's league , you will feel dissatisfied and feel entitled to strive for more.
Equally , if your partner feels you are out of their league they will feel insecure and are likely to suffer from anxiety over whether you are being faithful.
Also , opposites do not attract - according to a psychologist I can't remember the name of :P they said that what attracts you to a person (unique and opposing characteristics) become predictable , boring and annoying. That leads to dissolution.
So yeah , stick to your league :P unless you've got lots of money

Il guess youll have to start rolling in the cash babes

otherwise Il have to move on to better things :cool:
This is weird because my girlfriend thinks she's "out of my league", and I think I'm out of hers. But we've been together for a year, so it seems to be working out okay. It's all about trust. If you trust your partner then you shouldn't care about leagues. After all, if they've chosen to be with you, then it's obvious they see something in you, whether that be looks or not.

Well if you've got with them, then you've done the hard part. In the case of a male dating above his league though, a girl's friend would tend to interfere and tell the girl she could do better more than the reverse scenario.


This is true in my case. Most of my girlfriend's friends hate me, mainly because I'm very loud and say what I think, so that makes me a b*****d, whereas my friends love her. I actually really want her friends to like me, though, so we've had a do-over this month, hopefully this will work.
