What if I like some guys online who aren't as attractive as the good-looking men in real life?

I noticed that i don't feel attractive to guys that are too old looking but i had to be more attractive to men who aren't as attractive . My previous experience with some ex boyfriends was good looking, but they cheated . Some of my experience with some guys online was guys that were more good minded were looking for just friends or Casual dating/Casual relationship. One guy was taller than me and kept asking me if I would like to date a tall guy; I said no, I prefer guys who are shorter. The same word you like to date tall guys. I just blocked him after that. . The guys that i met in real life were also too good looking and i wasn't attracted to them as much as guys that were not as good looking men that i met some through online dating. I had some bad experiences with men who turned out to be players. Other men are not suitable. The other type of men I experienced were guys that asked me to look at their dicks pic. Only two of them did this, and yes, I refused and blocked and reported them both. My previous ex boyfriend went toxic, but I met two ex-boyfriends through Facebook. I had 9 ex boyfriends what is your opinion about these types of my experiences from real men to good looking to not so good looking men that I met online?

    That’s ok @Splatmate24 – you can be attracted to people who are not necessarily “attractive” (in appearance). Though, I know it sounds quite ironic. I can hear how this has been impacted by your previous experiences too. You should only view the content you feel comfortable (and consent to) viewing – you don’t have to view anything you don’t feel comfortable with or consent to :)
