My friend came to me the other day sad because he has trouble attracting women and saying how he must be ugly and as a good friend I told him he’s not and he’s a great catch blah blah blah

So then he asks me if my girlfriend would set him up with one of her friends so I asked her and she said that he’s ugly and no way would any of her friends go for him they said so before that he’s ugly.

There’s no way I could be honest with him he’d be devastated. So what do I tell him?

No, she won't. The end.


You sure do seem to like looks based threads, for some reason. And you're GF sounds like a horrible person.

Why are you attacking her? Her friends told her that he’s ugly.

Say the gf wants to butt out of his dating life and he needs to find his own dates.

They sound like horrible people as well.


Lots of them in your social group, it seems. That's unfortunate.

God forbid anyone has an opinion on anyone’s looks.

Did anyone say that it is not ok to have an opinion on how anyone looks? No, they never did.


There is something referred to as being classy and gracious though. I could never even freaking fathom saying no, I won't go out with _____, she is ugly. That would make me a (insert expletive).

Your first mistake was telling him he's not ugly.

He may very well be a great catch - or maybe he isn't - and that's what he can focus on.

It sounds like her friends are in a different "league" than he is appearance-wise.

As you say, IS he a great "catch"? Ugly guys with positive qualities find girlfriends, unless there isn't anything at all there to work with.

That your girlfriend's friends are immature, superficial, and catty. He doesn't need to be with a woman like her.



Interesting you surround yourself with such people, OP. But that's none of my business, though.
