Would u rather date a "hottie" or a "gal / guy" next door type?

[Papa Deuce]

Be totally honest!

I'm an average looking guy at best. Only one time in my life did I date a truly stunning looking woman. It was in college. And she was a gymnast!

But as cool as that seemed to me at first, I realized that I din't enjoy dating a woman that good looking. I always felt like she would look for someone better looking that I am. And I had people ask me " what is she doing with "you"? It became very mentally draining to me.

Sure, I love to look at great looking women.But if I wass still dating I would say that I would rather date the "girl next door".

BTW, that really good looking woman? Well, about 6 weeks after we started dating I found her "with" my college roommate!

I've dated "hotties", and I would MUCH rather date a guy next door. The hotties are WAY too into themselves. It gets old - fast.

 

[Charade]

Someone has to date the hotties so it well as be ME!!

I think my DH might have something to say about my dating but hypothetically I'd much rather date a guy next door type. I'm a girl next door type so I wouldn't relish dating someone who looked better than me.

I completely agree. Guy next door. My ex-dh was slightly cuter than guy next door, but he ended up being abusive and into his 'image' around other people. Definitely not looking to 'trade up', so to speak. Anyone in the future will be a 'guy next door' type.

Since this is "fantasy dating"...hotties of course.

<font color=navy>I would want to date the one who'd treat me right - doesn't matter if it's the guy next door type or a hottie.

I totally go for the guy next door look.

 

[luv2nascar]

dating a hottie is one thing but marrying the guy next door type is everything
hey everybody should be flexible to all kinds of dating. How are you going to know you wouldn't want a long term relationship with a hottie if you've never tried one??

hotties are too high maintenance for me. Give me the guy next door type. I actually told DH it was his sense of humor that attracted me to him? He was offended and thought I was saying he wasn't good looking. That wasn't what I was saying he is good looking but that isn't everything. GET IT GUYS LOOKS AREN'T EVERYTHING.

I'd feel uncomfortable dating anyone much better looking than I am or much uglier. I guess I want someone that is more or less on the same level I am.
On the other hand, I know a young woman that tends to date guys that aren't really at her level. People are always asking her "Why" shes dating so and so. It infuriates her!

 

[CamColt]

Ill take the hottie next door.

 

[Papa Deuce]

Ill take the hottie next door.

Hey, you stole Monkeyboy's line before he could get to it!

 

[mudnuri]

DH is a hottie...thats just the way it is- but he's also got a guy next door personality. He's not "into" himself like a self centered high school jock by any means, but he takes good care of himself- CEPT FOR THIS minor back issue we've got going on right now!

I'd date the hottie...

I've dated both and it all boils down to personality. Being totally honest, of course I want a hottie. But I won't date someone with a bad personality just because they are hot. And I really hate to say it because it sounds really girly, but I don't want to date a woman who is only dating me because she thinks I'm hot. That's a little too "flavor of the month" for me. OMG, I must be getting old...

 

[Alice28]

Guy next door, for sure. I dated some "hotties" in college and they were way too into themselves.

 

[Sandy22]

Hotties are nice to look at but will it last? Can't build a solid relationship on looks alone. The worst hotties are the ones who know/think they are. I can't stand a guy who spends more time in front of the mirror than I do.

 

[Blondy876]

I don't think I could date someone stunning. It would make me feel really self-conscience. That being said I think my dh is really attractive, more that the normal guy next door.

 

[nativetxn]

I think my dh is the "hot" boy next door. This has been true for 33 years of marriage. He's a great guy and I've been blessed.

[remyandhollandsmommy]

Well...my DH is NOT the boy next door type if you KWIM. He's definately a hottie though. I am gonna go with hottie over BND.

 

[SideshowBob]

So very true comes down to the person... and the sense of humor, kindness and intelligence biggest parts to SSB.

Certainly not always the case, but those who are the "hotties" and are so used to being sought after, seem to sometimes have trouble letting that thrill of being sought after, go... even when should.
