About three weeks ago, I met a girl. No offense to her, but compared to other women I’ve dated—especially my ex—she’s not as physically attractive. On a scale of 1 to 10, I’d say she’s a 5. Honestly, physical appearance has always been important to me, especially since my own looks gave me the freedom to choose.
But something strange happened. After my ex, I met several other women, and the more I talked to them, the less interested I became—each for different reasons. But with this girl, it was the opposite. One day we were picking a movie, and when I asked if she was okay with the one I chose, she replied, “If you’re good, I’m good too.” And something just clicked in my brain.
After being in a toxic relationship where my ex acted like she was some kind of prize I had to earn every day, it hit me that she never really cared how I was doing. It was always about her. But this new girl? Being with her is incredibly comfortable, she is always worried for my comfort and I must say this is supper attractive for me. Even though, like I said, she’s not the most attractive by my usual standards, I genuinely don’t care. We’re both 30, and I know we’re just getting to know each other, but time will tell where this goes.
Has something like this ever happened to you—where you didn’t expect much from a girl at first, but she ended up changing your whole perspective on her?
