Have you ever fallen in love with or grown attached to someone you wouldnt normally have given a second look?
God, yes!
I once saw a profile pic of a woman that wasn't too clear, and I passed her by (her profile wasn't too informative either), but when I bumped into her at a party.........the sky came crashing down - she is gorgeous!
And yes, my feelings for her grew from that day until this...... | |

Posted: 6/26/2009 1:42:40 AM | i was on another site for years and used to go to lots of meets up and down the country.
ther were quite a large group of people who used to be at lots of these meets, wherever they were.
i was aware of who all those people were although i never really mixed with many of them, and there was one guy who i always said hiya to, but never paid any attention to whatsoever.
a couple of years later he started chatting to me via the site, and we got talking..we met up and even though initially i didn't find him physically attractive, he grew on me immensely...our sense of humour was perfectly matched and i used to wet myself laughing whenever we were together...we could talk to each other openly and honestly...i don't think i've ever trusted anyone as much as i trusted him...
i remember being sat there one night with him just looking at him and thinking...i know i never started out fancying you, but my god, i just absolutely love your face now!
so yeah, i have :)
turned out though that he dumped me to go back to his ex! LOL  | |

Posted: 6/26/2009 3:25:49 AM | First - you have to ask why are you dating someone you are not attracted too?
Second-there is a natural procees of becoming similar too and growing fond of someone who we spend a lot of time with, ( unless we just dont get on).
So as you share memories and big moments in your lives, and secrets etc you grow close,so you can feel that you love someone,then it doesnt really matter what they look like at all.
I would say you can, as much as if you saw the prettiest girl you had ever seen, and felt instant attraction. That can very quickly fade when they turn out to be dumb as a horse.
The only trouble is - that people can get on your nerves and change for the worse even when they arent that good looking, so then youre really stuck! 
Thats when you have to move on I guess | |

Posted: 6/26/2009 3:47:52 AM | I haven't been in a relationship with someone I didn't know well since I was about 18.
At 24 I was engaged to someone I'd known for three months before going out with him. He lived nearby and we had some mutual friends. The relationship lasted for 2 years and never quite made it to the altar.
I lived for 18 years with someone I worked with for a year before ever going out with him.
My last relationship was with someone I was friends with for 3 months before things got serious all of a sudden. That lasted for over a year.
Maybe it's just that people only go out with me once they get to know me well !
Edit: Oops. Didn't quite answer the question. None of the above were physically attractive to me initially, they just grew on me as i got to know them. | |

Posted: 6/26/2009 4:06:49 AM | Yes my last serious relationship was the total opposite of everything i look for...
She was skinny to the point of being anorexic, had quite a few tatts an smoked, and was almost flat chested... Looked awful in a dress so not formal mess function material....
However for some reason i fancied the legs off her..... We lasted two years before my job got between us. | |

Posted: 6/26/2009 4:12:07 AM | I completely agree with Kingston - the way I feel about someone has a massive impact on how attractive I think they are.
I've met quite a few people I wasn't instantly attracted to, but got to know them and then seriously fancied them. There have also been a couple that I've been instantly attracted to but as I got to know them I've found them less and less attractive. | |

Posted: 6/26/2009 4:40:40 AM | I met up with an Aussie girl years ago and the moment I saw her I honestly just thought - "no way". However it seemed rude to not have a quick drink and chat. Anyhow, 4 hours later and a lot of laughter I found myself kissing her at the station goodbye.
We ended up going out for a few months and really being attarcted to one another. It ended as we were both in different "places". However, I'll never write someone off completely without at least spending a bit of time with them. | |

Reminds me of an old saying..
"When you least expect it, something great will come along. Something better than you ever planned for."
Oh and I liked Forest Gumps of course, "life's like a box of chocolates".

Up to date no, but you never know what's around the corner, I think your tastes and attitude change as you get older.
