Does it bother you if a potential partner has an asymmetrical facial feature?

Does it bother you if a potential partner has an asymmetrical facial feature?

Never even thought about it. For me, small quirks or even bigger ones are just charming.

Its not smth I think about. I dont rlly care tbh
Absolutely not. My husband was born with a cleft lip and since I have met him I genuinely find men that type of scar (and the asymmetrical features that come with it) very attractive. I can’t explain why but I really do
Don’t think this matters in the slightest. I’ve never actually thought about it, and now when I do, my partner’s “imperfections” are what I really love and makes them unique. I say imperfections for want of a different word – but for example, the big freckle on their cheek, or scar on their nose, or slightly lazy eye, have been things I’ve loved in previous partners. Cause it’s them!
Facial symmetry isn’t something I’ve ever consciously noted in partners but I have fancied plenty of people with asymmetry.
My nose is wonky and one of my cheeks is quite a bit fuller because of surgery I had on my jaw, so I’d be a hypocrite to mind.
I think sometimes asymmetry can be someone’s defining feature in a really positive way – like David Bowies eyes or Owen Wilson’s nose.
The asymmetries and little “imperfections” are what makes our bodies us, unique.
My boyfriend is funnily assymetrical. His nose is crooked to one side of his face. One of his eyes is bigger than the other. One of his eyebrows is placed higher on his head. His lips are uneven and in their natural position, one side stays very slightly open. He has scars on one side of the face and freckles on the other. He is the hottest and sexiest man I’ve seen in my life. I’m not even over exaggerating – the way we’ve met was that bumped into him on the street and audibly gasped, because of how damn beautiful I thought he was. If you were to take a picture of halves of his face, one looks like a mysterious badass guy, and the one looks like adorable goofball.
TLDR; I think it’s not very important.
Its really doesn’t matter, no one is perfectly symmetrical. Sometimes its even hotter if he has asymmetrical face
Literally not even a little bit!
I’ve never heard anyone say ‘I love my partner because their face is symmetrical’, or even ‘I had to leave them because the asymmetry was bothering me’. This is not what makes a person and definitely not what becomes love.
From 0 to 10, definitely-3. I mean I actually like facial asymmetry in people, especially asymmetrical nose, lips or even hair are very attractive in my opinion.
It’s not.
Cis woman here. Never cared
Facial symmetry might help with first impressions, but most women care more about personality, confidence, and connection. Minor asymmetries are normal and often go unnoticed, or even add charm.
The majority of people fall within a small range of facial symmetry variation, so it’s not terribly important usually. Most people have small amounts of asymmetry even if they don’t realize it themselves. Those variations are part of what makes each person unique and beautiful.
It’s not important. You’re either attracted to somebody or you’re not. I don’t think most people tend to go into the finer details of why or why they’re not attracted to somebody, if we were to then we may start picking out those uneven features etc but I think that would be as a way to justify to ourselves why we don’t like someone when the real reason is deeper than that.
I’ve never thought of it before until this very moment. Don’t care whatsoever.
