I am an attractive person. I get a lot of attention from good-looking boys, and people always tell me I'm pretty. I never have problems finding someone who whose interested me.
Recently (say in the past year), I've noticed that I'm attracted to plenty of guys who just...aren't attractive. Some of them are actually ugly. I just think they are so funny, smart, or interesting that well..I'm into them. I'll occasionally mention it to another girl, and it's usually met with a repsonse like "are you crazy? he's really ugly!" and I'll be thinking "well yes he is, but it somehow doesn't matter".
Is this normal? Does anyone else find themselves attracted to people they know are not actually attractive? I can't seem to figure it out.

Oh, I definitely have been before. It's normal, and actually probably a good thing that you're attracted to people for more than their looks.

YES!! and lets say you're tlaking to some girl about this guy you like thats not really attractive. the very first thing they ALWAYS ask is...is he cute? LIKE WTF. umm he's cute to me? not to the world. actually i think he's ugly but i really like him. how do you respond that question?? its like really weird. and then the worst thing is when the girl thats going out with the ugliest guy asks you...is he cute? then thats your cue to say...nope. but neither is yours.

I wonder if any boys feel this way about ugly girls...of course, boys have harder time figuring out if they are attractive or not, so they aren't always sure what kind of standards they should have.

Are you kidding me? Guys get it worse than anyone else. Guys get massively ridiculed if they find themselves in a relationship with a girl that isn't smoking hot. It can be a little annoying sometimes. Actually, all the time.

^only if the guy is hot

anon4 is right. Youd be suprised at how much pressure guys put on each other-even though its only out of fun and jest.

This is totally true.
Everyone i come to love just isn't ...
hot.

I kinda like it that way though
cuz It really shows i like the PERSON more than the face, you know?

looks are just the first thing people see (no shit right?) but i find the most attractive parts of people are whatever they have to offer inside their heads..

but yeah everyone always is like "damn, shes fine" not "yeah shes an awesome person to talk to" it gets to the point where most people dont appraceiate whats within. and i think guys have more pressure then girls do.

Op, I am attracted to that type too...and it is a good thing...personality matters a lot more

i'm the girl that no one is attracted to... any advice for that?

either
a) you are wrong; people are attracted to you and you just don't know it
b) you are mean, bitter, whiny, or have hygiene problems.

wow, YES, i am totally in the same boat as you!

I say, keep on keepin' on. Cause in the end, you're going to be happy... for whom you love... and looks fade, too!

Don't fall into the superficial traps of the world. It's amazing that you CAN see past appearances and not let that be a factor in your feelings for other people.

Besides, even the "hot" guys/ girls won't look like that in 30 years, when you're married.

:D
