Becoming beautiful as you get to know the person

[willynillysillybilly]

A wee random post but kind of interesting to see what people say... have you ever known Someone unattractive or very average that became really beautiful as you got to know them? I have met a few people that have definitely become really attractive as I've grown to know them more, almost like their personalities just absolutely had the X factor and suddenly there was just something stunning about them. Has this ever happened to you?

Definitely, and the opposite is true too. People I've found really attractive and they've revealed an ugly personality they become less attractive.

@LizBennet yes you're so right I was just thinking that too that an ugly personality can instantly detract from visual beauty

Yes. People become more attractive the better I know them, and the less attractive the less I like them. This is why I could never have a ONS - I genuinely don't know if I'm attracted to someone the first time I meet them.

Yes.

Yes. One of the most attractive people in the world to me is someone that others find unattractive.
Her personality makes her gorgeous, like that Roald Dahl quote.

I find it’s true the other way too, people who are physically attractive look ugly as fuck if they’re not nice people.

It's fascinating the power of personality then. It seems kindness and sense of humour are massive to me... also a little fond of intellectual ability, which is rich as I'm thick as mud lol

Not really, no. Most people I socialize with are attractive, glum and not-particularly-nice. I'm probably seen as being the same. In terms of relationship preferences, I find gentleness and kindness in men especially off-putting as they are feminine qualities. I am more likely to pour my efforts into indulging a bit-of-a-bastard while running a mile away from those nice guy types (especially the blond haired, provincial ones who looked like that since they were toddlers etc).

Says who? What awful sexist stereotyping!

I think the same as you, OP... Good looks don't stay 'good' for long unless propped up with something else positive; and I find smiley, positive people far more attractive than gloomy good-lookers!

Deffo. My ex was okay ish but as I got to know him I thought he was the most gorgeous bloke in the world, genuinely couldn't be attracted to anyone else. But then he revealed himself as a total cunt and I look at pictures of him and think god he is ugly as fuck.
