What Would Do If Your Date Said To You, "I'm Use To Dating Someone Better Looking Than You?"
Posted: 1/22/2009 1:24:30 PM
Well I was out having dinner with a friend when this couple came in and has seat the table next to ours. The tables in that place were so close together that you couldn't help but over anything the people next to you talked about . As we were waiting for the check, we heard the woman asked the man she was with why he looked so tense.

And that's when we couldn't believe what cam out of his mouth. He told her that he was that way because he was use to dating women "prettier" than her. The woman looked stunned and didn't say anything else. The guys apologized, but I think the damage was done. The waitress brought our check and we left.

So people, how would you react if your date said that they were use to dating someone better loking to you?

I would either start laughing at the guy's lack of class, or walk out.
I'd bet that prior to this couple arriving at the restaurant, there were flags on the field as to his lack of manners and the woman just ignored them.

Kind of a tough call, because if you get up and leave due to his horrid lack of manners, you've now lowered yourself to his level. Grace is behaving with class even when confronted with horrid behavior.

I agree with the other posters about dating people with class and leaving. I would probably immediately say f you very much and my favorite VanHalen line, "you know you are semi good looking."

Poor woman must have low self esteem not to have commented on what an azz he is.

You know... I really do wonder if a guy would react differently in that situation...

"Why do you look so tense?"
"Oh... it's nothing, really. I'm simply accustomed to dating men more attractive than you."
"Oh. Oh I see... more wine then?"

How about...

"Then you're used to paying for it?"

"Oh? So who's in the latest edition of Playboy, anyway?"

"Then we have even more in common than I thought."

I guess that depends how hard up they are. I'm generally not a fan of violence against women, but this is a situation where I would seriously weigh the pros and cons of a swift punch to the ovaries.

For a man or woman it sure would suck immensely to hear your date say that. I'd be hardpressed to say that I would sit there and carry on as if nothing happened.

It's just down right rude and rather unnecessary to say . Seems like manners is scarce these days.

I would say "Really?, well I am used to dating smarter people, so I'll be leaving now." I really dislike people that do that. If you aren't attracted to someone, why ask them out? Obviously the guy the OP heard making the remark wasn't into the girl. The best thing you can do when someone says something like that is just leave because obviously he's not into you. We all deserve to be with someone who thinks we are the hottest thing on earth. If you partner says nothing but negative things about your looks, then move on he's not the one. Hopefully the woman left asap! Guys/girls who say nasty things to people about their looks are insecure about their own so they make themselves feel better by dissing others. People like that end up alone, so I don't worry about it. I know I am damn sexy, and when I find the guy for me he will know I am beautiful and always tell me. If he doesn't then I know he's not the one!

I think it would be an interesting scenario for me if my date said that to me. My reaction? I would most likely say, "Okay."

The logic behind this is that there is no guarantee that what she thinks is handsome or sexy is in the same series of standards that I find beautiful and delicious. So of course, with so many people in this world, I'm sure she has had much more physically suitable dates than with someone like me.

Clarity: it might make me feel awkward and uncomfortable for the moment, but it won't affect me so much to be upset about it. However, it really depends on what happens after that. Is she going to persist that I am not as handsome/sexy? If so, then I will make the choice to stop seeing her. If she simply mentioned that but has no further rejections, then I don't see a problem with it. Of course, she has no tact, but I wouldn't use it as an excuse to eject myself from that relationship.

So people, how would you react if your date said that they were use to dating someone better looking than you?


Wow, I think I would laugh, despite myself. First of all, that's so absolutely rude that at that moment, I would be inwardly thinking:

"My gosh, I went to all the trouble to get into my Sunday best for this turkey?" After a silent admonishment to myself for the bother, I would turn my thoughts back to him and attempt to offer some very brief free analysis since I was already there -- needless to say, it wouldn't be pretty. Anyone who would blatantly blurt something like that out to someone they are just meeting can use it.

And as for radical honesty? (Chuckles) I'm always willing to listen to how that's working for someone.

It's a good thing I wasn't the one that overheard that conversation. I'm afraid I would have stopped, stared at said "gentleman" then turned to the waitress who had just arrived for our check and said "I suspect he'll be needing his check as well, fairly immediately." Then I would have winked over at the woman, his dinner companion, and whispered, "No need to give this guy a mercy date..shall we get you a cab?"

Hopefully she would have responded with a "why thank you, yes, please," risen and walked quickly away from said loser.

I'm totally appalled, I'd probably be speechless. Can you imagine anybody acting like such a jerk. You have to think quickly in a situation like this. I guess one could say "Wow, I was just thinking the same thing about you but I didn't want to be a jerk by saying it out loud."

I once emailed a guy (same age as me) on another dating site to say I liked his profile etc and he sent me this lovely line..

'sorry I like em younger'


so I emailed him back saying, 'my mistake, I like em smarter'.

I would smile sweetly, touch his hand gently and say " I understand completely. I'm used to dating someone smarter than you." Then I'd kindly ask, "what became of that better looking someone? She decide prostitution was a step UP? "
