Ladies have you ever dated a man who was more attractive than you?

[Revolver]

I asked my sister this question last night and she said it happened only once(she said he was a 9.5 and considers herelf like a 7)She said she personally wasn't insecure but observed a few things

 

-He basically had his own fan club. It was almost like a mini celebrity. You remember that scene in goodfellas where Henry would walk around with Karen and everybody knew him? Like that but with way more females trying to hug and kiss him.

- She was surprised at how agressive other women were around him, even when it was clearly obvious he was taken. Not talking about just being flirtatious, like openly propositioning him for sex in public. Waitresses, tellers, Bartenders, even a now former friend of hers was sending him dirty pics. He showed my sister and she couldn't believe it

I have dated male models in the past I am not bad looking but not going to get paid for my looks so I guess you could say yes. I have dated men who are better looking than me.

 

No. I did not feel inferior or anything else.

 

Yes women did flock around them and yes they got lots of looks and yes some women were just plain nasty to me for no reason other than I had snagged a guy they were after. Some guys were a bit strange around them as well.

 

Not worth worrying about.

 

I may have been less pretty but obviously had something they liked...

 

In both cases I was the one who ended things.

 

The guy I had most problems with was a really tall guy. He was very well built *ripped* and 6ft9. Not bad looking but not the best looking guy I have dated. Whenever we went out he would always be challenged by other men. It was quite sad really as we would just be sitting in the corner of the pub and random guys would come up and start on him (or me if they didn't get a rise out of him), trying to get him to fight. I have no idea what it was as he was a really lovely gentle bloke, massive yes and perfectly capable of ending anything that started, but on the whole he just wanted to sit quietly and enjoy a pint and a few giggles... We ended up staying in most of the time to avoid the "so you think your hard do ya" because it happened a lot. Nightclubs were an absolute no. Men would try to fight him on the way in. Even in respectable and so called upper class places... I have no idea why.

I would just say that my insecurity remains in place whether the guy is better looking than me or not. In any circumstance, I am still not going to like a guy I'm supposed to be dating going out to dinner with his ex or being manipulated by his ex. Doesn't have to do with looks. Has to do with me.

He would have cultivated that though.

 

I slept with a player about 3 years ago and wherever he went, he would get female attention. He was good looking, a very pretty face, contagious laugh, etc but I think it's very obvious that he was after the attention.

 

Around that time I used to hang out with another guy every now and then who was objectively just as good looking (both late 20s) and he would get noticed far less because he was an introvert.

No, but that's a really obvious example bc they're so far apart, and it can be seen pretty objectively. What about Brad Bitt and Angelina Jolie - which one is more attractive?

 

I'm not trying to be the social engineer here lol just illustrating the difficulty of comparing men and women when the criteria for attractiveness in them is generally different. You can see a sort of universally aethsetic difference between Quasi Modo and Snow White but when you get ppl closer overall (which is where most of the population falls) and judge them pseudo-sexually with all the contributing factors that go into that and not just like pieces of art, it's more complicated.

 

I bet most of the women here who've said yes weren't/aren't actually in different 'leagues' than their partners.

 

Easy...Brad Pitt. He is usually very attractive in his movies. Angelina was only very attractive to me in Gia.
