I Am Shallow

But I did like people based on their personality in the past. I’d fallen in love with someone who’s looks is not everything I care about I still think about him sometimes about what could have been between us.

Then there’s friends I care about those people even if their identity is kept secret and only a name is shared now that person is a true friend, like an older brother. I’m so happy I’d found him on SW and we’d talked today. Also old friends I’d talked to on EP. Although we’d never met face to face or heard one another’s voice, I respect your privacy and I’m thankful for our friendship and those who share photos too included thank you all of my friends.

I just wish this would apply too when it comes to romantic interest because I am shallow and I’m working on it. This slow progress will workout in the end I’m sure of it.

Honestly your not shallow, maybe a little superficial, but I feel like looks are very important in building a romantic interest in a person

like really the truth is I can meet the funniest and sweetest guy but if he ain't got the looks I'm looking for...then well basically that's what they call the "friend zone"


It's a lot easier too to be physically attracted to someone as well, don't be too hard on urself about it, find yourself a guy that ur physically and emotionally attracted to.

So true, but if you really really like someone that it’s developed to love feeling you ignore those flaws and even see it as looking perfect. It’s weird.

But once it’s gone you go back to your old self, what I did was kind of unforgivable so I stuck with believing it was never true love in the first place. Because he was nothing but kind and caring to me, although he did forgive me in the end we aren’t talking anymore so...it’s my fault too.

Thank you though *hugs*, I get what you’re saying and it’s true too. Not my view is the only correct one. @wakanda4eva

I should probably add that I'm obviously not the catch in the city lol, I'd be happy if any human would just give a smile at me.


and looks are subjective, so in that area, I was attracted to he's personality, but I just couldn't get pass he's looks, so I kinda ignored he's advances although he is a great friend, and I probably lead him on which was a dick move lol but I liked talking to em and didn't wanna stop, but just I don't know I couldn't get into the romantic side of it.

what do you mean go back to your old self? <3 hugs I appreciate it, and I know definitely there are instances where you grow to love em for their personality, and with a great personality as cliche as it sounds, it really makes a person a lot more beautiful.

Your friend must have really liked you then because he could not handle rejection so well.

Who knows he may be change his looks and become more attractive one day and who knows? Haha

Going back to the time where I don’t care about looks. You know like when I’m just thinking about being with someone for who they are, that part of me is gone but it can be restored. I think it could be.

honestly legit that's what i keep thinking hahahahaha! it's like well maybe now he's ehh but in the future..I'm gonna be missing out lol

but I don't think you need to go back to that part of you, I really feel like if your vibing with a person, and your physically attracted to them, then it's a lot better than trying to convince yourself that you can "settle" for them, cos, in the end, I don't think you can truly be happy like that.

but don't take what I say too seriously lol, I only like voice chatted with him twice and never even video chat so it's also very much like urs internety shting,

I definitely can tell your a beautiful person inside and out, continue to be awesome <3
