tigressA Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 I have been with a guy who was my total physical ideal, and he was just...OMFG. He looked, smelled, sounded like hot hot sex. I found myself extremely surprised that while around him I didn't act like my brain had fallen out, because that's certainly how I felt. That one situation was short-lived (a month of online correspondence and two dates) and I overlooked quite a bit: he smoked, drank more than I would've liked, wasn't interested in commitment at all (he was already dating one of his coworkers), was too far away to maintain any sort of regularity with seeing each other, and was a little too smooth. I likely would've put up with it long-term if he had been more commitment-minded because aside from him being f*cking gorgeous and amazing in bed, we did get along quite well overall.

Why allow (trying not to use the word "settle") for anything less than this level of desire? Really, I'm asking.
Untouchable_Fire Posted March 30, 2011 Posted March 30, 2011 Hey Guys, I have been wondering about something for a few days, and thought I would throw it out to you to see what you think. The assumption is that each of us have an image in mind of the perfect physically attractive image is. The question is What would you be willing to overlook in a partner that had this perfect form? I guess it could be broken into 2 parts, as I am sure physical attractiveness seems more exciting when your first with someone, then it is over time of knowing them. So what would you be willing to overlook at first? What could you overlook long term? Just a bit of fun for the middle of the week. Uh... I started this and no physical type really came to mind. Does that mean I don't have a strong preference either way? I dated some really stick skinny aspiring model types in my mid 20's... I can honestly say that is my least favorite body type today.
tigressA Posted March 31, 2011 Posted March 31, 2011 Why allow (trying not to use the word "settle") for anything less than this level of desire? Really, I'm asking. IMO no one should allow for anything less than that level of desire, and I never said I did. I eventually got something even better, which is my current relationship. Though my BF isn't my total physical ideal, he does meet most of it.
Cee Posted March 31, 2011 Posted March 31, 2011 I wouldn't get so focused on this man being the ultimate in hotness for you. He's just a good looking guy. Flirt with him and have fun with it.

That's so cool TigressA, even though you only got to meet up with him twice, I think it is brilliant you got that experience. And congratulations on getting something you feel is even better now. Uh... I started this and no physical type really came to mind. Does that mean I don't have a strong preference either way? I dated some really stick skinny aspiring model types in my mid 20's... I can honestly say that is my least favorite body type today. Yeah UF, I can't say I have never really had a type, because I always had, but until the day I saw this guy, I wouldn't have thought there could have been 1 specific physical model to trump all others. But 3 years on, and I just have to see the image and 'bam' i'm gone. It's like somehow my imagination leaked out into reality just enough so that unicorns seem real, but not enough to provide believable evidence.
tigressA Posted March 31, 2011 Posted March 31, 2011 (edited) That's so cool TigressA, even though you only got to meet up with him twice, I think it is brilliant you got that experience. And congratulations on getting something you feel is even better now. It was really cool; I don't regret the experience at all though it was short-lived. He's also a ridiculously talented photographer and on our second date he took some (hot!) pictures...ahem...of me that I still have. I hate that I can't show them to my BF without having to explain their origin and him being jealous, though. They will have to remain my little secret, I guess. I remember this guy wanted me to be his "muse, (my) subject and lover...and we will create art." Hahaha! I admit I felt pretty pumped up by that cheesiness. Edited March 31, 2011 by tigressA

If she had a depression problem, I'd be willing to help her bootstrap her way through it, because I've been there, beaten it.
