Have you ever turned down a date simply based on looks?

No.

I am so into cocky and entertaining. I could care less what one looks like. But you wouldn't know that, well until you know.

So Gaston is your dream date?

no

Been married a long time now, but yes I turned down guys for their looks as a rule. Guys who are too good looking are full of themselves and boring. Being very attractive is actually a kind of curse.

No not the delusional cocky. Laughing.

Not to mention sexy often has very little to do with looks.

Really good point.

Im sorry for being so shallow, but yes, looks are everything. Spin it however you want. Go

Well I certainly won't. Everyone has their thing. And looks are important to you. Completely normal.

I figured. I meant it as a joke.

There were a couple guys when I was doing to the online dating thing that I decided to not pursue/continue chatting with because I knew I was not attracted to them and at that time I had several other guys I was chatting with. Though I am, in general, more interested in a persons personality than I am in their looks. I have also become attracted to someone I was not originally attracted to after getting to know them.

As far as money goes. I would not purse someone just for their money but their NOT having money/job does make a difference.

There have been several threads for this, and at least one is still active, but mainly because most people on here live so far apart, I don't think it's had a lot of results.

They could divide it by state if the Dis did a professional version.

Some states may not have enough single members on here for that to work out very well, but they could give that a try. In the meantime, if you are so inclined, you could always start a dating thread for your state.

Yeah, in all my time on the DIS I have only known two other people from my city who were active on here. If you widened it to the state maybe a few more, but it's a BIG state! There just isn't enough traffic on here to really see good results unfortunately.

You’d most likely have better luck with a traditional dating site. But unless you live in a big city/area even then it is difficult. When I was online dating I never meet anyone in my town. They were all 30-90 minutes away.

 

[footballmouse]

I did back in high school, the guy was shorter than me.

 

[JLTraveling]

Based on looks, no. But based on intangible attraction, yes. One of my very best friends is a guy I actually met on a dating site years ago. He's a wonderful person and we get along amazingly well. But the romantic chemistry simply doesn't exist, and we recognized that on the first date.

The whole "wealth" argument? Not so much. I tried that exactly once, at my dad's suggestion. I was mostly dating unemployed/underemployed people when I was asked out by an architect from a wealthy family in Prague, who was working for a local company. Dad said I should give it a try, since I was having no luck and the guy was completely outside my normal dating pool. BIG mistake. He was an entitled jerk with a side of very old-fashioned beliefs about male and female roles.

Not that my luck has gotten any better since then, but at least it proved to me once and for all that I am NOT cut out to be a gold digger.

We could name it desperate dissers dot com.

As for me, other: I've never turned down a date for looks. Then again I was the one asking rather than the one that does the accepting or turning down.
