Hey I’m in class so I have on my serious-note-taking face. 8-|
I guess this will have to be short, but I just had to share. I realized I was attracted to someone who I had never really thought of as particularly attractive. It blew me away a little bit, because objectively speaking, I’ve been (for the most part) overly concerned with pretty boys, and haven’t had too many relationships because well… good-looking men who have actually developed their personalities are few and far between. I don’t blame them for having the depth of a puddle though, nobody has demanded more of them (yet). They’ve had no problem pulling a crowd of admirers even though they’ve lacked opinions, humor, significant hobbies and/or the ability to sustain interesting conversations pretty much their entire lives.
What really sucks is being attracted to one of these beautiful men/women (basically because they look edible), and then being attracted to another person who isn’t as aesthetically pleasing, but has a captivating personality. Don’t you just wish you could mesh the two together? But of course you can’t… so you can either go ahead and settle, or keep looking for someone who has all these qualities and that kind of person is about as common as a unicorn.
Allow me to illustrate pictorially:
Yup. Take note of the highly coveted ‘null set’, and as for the ‘zone of pain’… May the good Lord help you all… :-/
But yea, back to my story. I realized that I found this guy’s mind so attractive. And excuse the nerdiness of this next statement but I actually got inexplicably excited just thinking of the kind of conversations we could have… (no, nothing sexual here guys, I’m just saying….) And it was a good feeling. Clearly, I’m excited that I’m evolving into someone that can be just as sexually attracted to a mind as they can be to a face/voice/body type… I’m very content with that realization as I think it shows maturity. I’d love to hear thoughts on this and any related issues… use the comment box… Please? :-/
