You're a hottie

So, has it ever happened to you that a gorgeous guy who you have a crush on expresses an interest and you and you find that flattering, but then when you finally meet the guy's boyfriend, you find him so unattractive/creepy/dull/etc. that you begin to wonder how flattering that expression was after all?

It's the kind of thing that makes you want to stop basing any of your sense of self-esteem on other's opinions at all.

i prefer to let babies do the assessment.

No, but I find it just as offensive when I've been dumped in favor of someone with vile personal qualities.

That's a different dynamic, really--being rejected vs. just being damned with faint praise.

Indeed I have. And yes. It does give one pause.
