I did a thread like this a couple of years ago, but seeing as there are so many new wembers since I did it... lets debate again....( and it follows on from the 'shallow' thread quite nicely)
SO.... you get a mail/flower from a guy/women you dont find 'at all' attractive... and they live fairly close, so would you reply and meet them?
Personally, I would'nt, as I would not want them to get the wrong idea and think there is the chance that I wanted a relationship.....
for me, everyone is a 'package' and part of that package includes their looks for sure, but many other things as well. so my attraction to a person, how i find them attractive, varies from person to person. i have a question for you...(smiling) i noticed on your profile, that you are an artist as well...so if you received mail from someone that you considered physically unattractive, but noticed in their profile that they were an awesome artist...would you reply or meet him?
(i think i would, just to find out if there was any chemistry between us. as well, i have met some folks that looked dreadful in their photo, but very attractive in person.)

Not trying to split hairs here but you mean unattractive to yourself personally right? I think I would get to know them first before automatically writing them off. Reason being is with age; none of us stay attractive; its a fact of life. If it was say for example: someone that was covered by tattoos; I would probably not want to meet him as that does not appeal to me. If he were an average guy that wasn't particularly good looking; yes I would meet him if I liked him.

As long as I wasn't wearing a cream, wooly jumper when I met him, I'd have no worries about him getting the wrong idea.

Yes I mean personally, afterall, beauty is in the eye of the beholder
I would meet someone that I though looked ok as in the flesh they might look even better... lol, ... but I mean if you looked at their photo and really did not find them one little bit attractive

HI.. Yes I have replied to a few people regarding my art and theirs, and chatted, and yes I would meet, BUT I would have to state it was to talk about our art, and nothing else.. (as in dating)

Yeah! I did! When I first joined the site again.
I didn't find him attractive from his photos but we seem to hit it off in many other ways.
I was happy to meet up with him and we spent hours chatting face to face after having messaged for a few weeks. I didn't find there was any chemistry between us so I suggested being friends as we lived close enough to be friends.

I try to at least send a "thank you for viewing my profile" flower. I must admitt, I don't do it all the time, but most times. Looks aren't so important for me to reply. I am flattered people take time to write me.

Well, I am probably the most unattractive single person here on CS, so I wouldn't bother mailing/flowering anyone, especially not you.

I'd reply, but nicely not to hurt their feelings, maybe" doesn't look like we have much in common" or something like that, otherwise they'll think you are just ignorant.JMO.

if he (being attractive or not) shared common interests with me, yes I would go to meet him.

to me it is quite disrespectable, to copy someone elses Idea for a Thread, and then start another thread on the same topic, thats like cheating on a Homework assignment, them want to take credit for it....
Cant people use their own Immagination, instead of COPYING a thread that has been already posted, and going all day????
