Dating

[heyjoe@lemmy.world]

Over the years of talking with my wife about who we find attractive, she has realized I find almost all women attractive in some ways and normally the ones that are supposed to be attractive i find less attractive. She hated this realization because she applied it to herself, and it made her feel bad... I just find the good in most people, that's all!

I feel like this meme was made by a gen z kid that grew up with filtered pictures being normal

Ya, the meme is trash, but attraction is important. It may evolve or surprise you, but it is relevant.

I like reminding my single friends that 73% of Americans are considered overweight. 41% are obese.

A shocking amount of my male friends are overweight or obese and refuse to date overweight women.

There’s a coworker of mine that when the topic arises and he gets asked what is his preference (in terms of the types of women he likes) his response is “women”

[atlas_@lemmy.world]

That seems absurdly low. Are you sure that all of your criteria are non-negotiable? And entirely uncorrelated?

That's been something hard about transitioning, being aware of how fewer and fewer people find me attractive the further I go. Ah well, it's not like I was going to find a partner anyways, looks really never came into play in the first place.

Look I wasn't completely serious about it, there's no way to actually calculate something like that.
For example what's the fraction of people that find me attractive. It could range from 0.05 to 0.5. I have no way of knowing.

That's the boat I'm in, except that I'm also gay and the popular trend is poligamy. Fml

Idk i find like 80% of women i know attractive, its just that i have such confidence problems i dont ask anybody out.

[surewhynotlem@lemmy.world]

You could work backwards from successful marriage counts.

[scubus@sh.itjust.works]

Post pic or be assumed attractive

[tehdastehdas@lemmy.world]

Wouldn't be a problem if someone took dating as seriously as Skyscanner takes flight tickets.

[dabaldeagul@feddit.nl]

I'm gen z but my problem is mostly that I tend to be attracted to my friends more... Which kinda limits the pool. Whoops.

[nomy@lemmy.zip]

We could all lose a few pounds but sharing a meal is a huge thing, take that thicc person out and enjoy meal with another human being you animals. You might even find you have some commonality and you'll feel slightly less isolated when the meal is done.

Based ml take

[nojustice@lemmy.ml]

Go back to Reddit

[candletiger@programming.dev]

It limits the pool for sure but when it works it works real good. Good luck to you.

[grammarpolice@lemmy.world]

No please. Anything but that

[deadworldwalking@lemmy.blahaj.zone]

Remember, if you find them attractive that means they're out of your league!
