I notice that only the ugly men and women want to believe the notion "love is not about physical attraction."

It is kind of sad to believe this. don't get me wrong, LOVE Is definitely not about physical attraction, but physical attraction has to be there.

How can you make love to somebody you find to be ugly?
You can't.

For guys, if it's not hard, it's not "on".

That's why they are called hard ons.

This is my biggest irritation with these "exceptions" that have to pipe up. They need to get the hell out of my biology. Seriously. You can't argue me into an erection.

It just doesn't work.

Money can make an ugly person attractive. That is one exception. How many famous people have talked about how the couldn't find dates before they became famous, then, once they became famous the same people that rejected them, wanted them? Look at the Maloof Bros and Donald Trump.

But that is not love though, you cannot deny that.

beautiful people SETTLED with ugly rich people, admit it or not, believe it or not, like it or not. It is the reality.

They still SETTLED.

Not so sure. You would have to ask the people who are that situation. However, I think money does make people more attractive. Part of it is about wanting what other people want and can't have.

I have mixed feelings about this. In a way, I don't have any desires of getting to know this gentleman better, even though he had quite a few things to say. He has a lot of interests, is quite successful in his career field. I tried to remember what my mom said, "After you reach certain age, all men look the same." I don't think I can get pass the physical attraction thing.

I mean he does not have to be hot, but he has to be cute in my eyes. This guy I am sure is cute in other women's eyes, but he is too short for me, he is 5 7 with shoes on I am 5 9, in addition to this, that bad breath thing is a little bit of a turn off to me too.

He thought we had great connection, that is what he said at the end of the conversation. I feel kind of bad about the whole thing.
Well, the breath could be a one-shot deal. Everyone has a bad day once in a while in that regard. It might take another date to see if that issue persists. The other stuff? Well, that might be harder.

Yes. But only as a friend. Not in a romantic sense. If I dont find her attractive, then she is immediately friend zoned with no chance of ever getting out of there. Friend zoned for life. The physical attraction HAS to be there.

Nope....I've tried to like guys who like me, but I wasn't physically attracted to. Never worked for me.

Then again their personalities weren't the best....so maybe that's a factor too.

There were a couple of girlfriends who I was not physically attracted to but we had pretty good relationships. They weren't ugly or anything but I would rate them no higher than a 5 or mediocre. I believe that it could happen, but if you think the person's appearance is atrocious, then probably no.
