To guys, ever had a gf na hindi ka ganun ka nagagandahan?

[sacred cow]

just curious of what other guys think, kasi alam nating lahat how much weight a guy gives on a girl's looks. so, the question is...have you ever settled on a girl's looks pero bawi naman siya sa other qualities like her personality or character?

[firegl]

nagka-gf ako pangit daw sabi ng mga ka-tropa ko, eh may advantage din nman pre wlang masyado problema n madaming guys ang tumitingin hehe.

Importante maganda ugali! ang masama pre eh pangit na nga pangit pa ugali pwe! 

Ang hndi ko pa naeexperience yung mgandang Gf na maganda ugali at yung pangit na ugali din hehe lahat pangit nagiging gf ko haha!

[sacred cow]

^ onga pre, tulad ng kwento sakin ng kaibigan ko kagabi...gf nya 'di na nga kagandahan tapos pangit pa ugali...masyado paimportante at mahilig mangumpara

[minatay91]

A lot of my guy friends do. OR baka sa kanila maganda, pero sa akin hindi.
planning to settle sacred cow?

pero I actually appreciate guys who have girlfriends with socially stigmatized looks. It makes me think that, possibly, not everyone is that shallow.
It may be true love if it transcends looks anyways. May magandang ugali siguro.

[sacred cow]

^ I dunno, though it crossed my mind a lot of times na what if...

instead of always looking for a HOT girl, why not check out the COOL ones

pero 'di ko sinabing pangit ha, average naman

[minatay91]

^ same here. What if nga I was really intended for a pangit guy. While medyo kawawa ang offspring ko or magproblema yung mga kaibigan ko sa kapangitan niya, it's not like they're the ones sleeping next to him at night.

And anyways, what is a better way to emphasize your beauty by being with someone na hindi medyo ka.gwapuhan. hahaa jk pero seriously, I learned the value of character, wit and wisdom that makes one happy (well, me anyways)

BUT, not to worry. You dont have a big of a problem as us girls. there will always be MORE BETTER LOOKING WOMEN than men anyways. Dammit.

(wiwishu a meri krismas wiwishu a meri kismas wiwishu a meri krismas enahafi nyu yir to better lovelives and better looking partners. haha)

hahaha...oo nga! tapos women usually get less attractive as they age while men get yummier

So ang peg mo ba lagi, humanap ng pangit?

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.     Puedeng average sayo pero pangit din sa iba.  But I really believe somehow, dapat may factor ang ganda nya sayo, otherwise how can you marry someone na ayaw mo na hindi maganda for you,  paano na kung kakagising lang, eh di mas magdeteriorate beauty nya.  So dapat may appear/ganda factor parin.

Just like choosing guys, hindi puede kahindik hindik ang kapangitan, paano mo naman matiis yun halikan?

pero seriously, I learned the value of character, wit and wisdom that makes one happy (well, me anyways)

Sa lalaki, yes, character is important.  I also believe importante din ang confidence. Minsan kahit mataba or pango ang ilong, nadadala nila.

BUT, not to worry. You dont have a big of a problem as us girls. there will always be MORE BETTER LOOKING WOMEN than men anyways. Dammit.

Hmmm, you spoke too soon. I think the next generation of men are in a dilemma on choosing their women. Ang dami na kasi ngayong pampaganda, pati mga fake ones, surgery and all.  So they really have to be discerning din. Mamaya akala nila maganda na parang Korean ang mapapangasawa nila only to find out paglabas ng offspring eh pangit pala. so alam na! 

I don't think that there are more better looking women than men.  If you take out all the beauty products, men definitely age better than women (with all the cellulites, bilbil, weight gain, menopause).  For the young ones naman, maybe more girls are attractive as they mature early, unlike for younger men na nakakainis lang kausap kasi wala pang confidence at wisdom.

wala namang humahalik na bukas yung mata

. I think the next generation of men are in a dilemma on choosing their women. Ang dami na kasi ngayong pampaganda, pati mga fake ones, surgery and all.  So they really have to be discerning din.

pero in the end kapag true love it goes beyond that. In biology men are genetically wired to look for looks, not that it justifies them being shallow bastards just as women look for the providers (;

well for this country im definitely sure na mas daming magandang straight kesa gwapong straight. minsan pa nga pangit choosy. haaha more often because mas daming babae dito grr. and in line with the cosmetic and artificial enhancement more widely available to women than men at affordable prices, grabe naman if the girl cant make herself look presentable or average looking.

Walang pangit na babae, tamad lang. At kung meron kang pera pero shonget parin, kasalanan mo na yun

But I agree yung mga gusto ko kausap at kasama na mga lalake usually late 20's na. Not that ALL of them are sensible, just like not all early 20s are walang kwentang kausap pero generally speaking, they sound like they cant act like complete idiots once they're hitting 30s heheeh

[sacred cow]

Pansin ko lang din bakit kaya for guys, ok lang sa amin na magustuhan kami ng girl na gusto namin for our personality kahit hindi tulad namin ang gusto ng babae in terms sa looks (kunwari short yung guy or mataba) pero parang offensive para sa girls kung magustuhan sila nung guy for their personality at malaman nilang hindi type ni guy ang itsura ni girl.

[binlaten]

In my case, looks was my first criteria, kinda "Basic Instinct" killer looks. But now that I'm old and married, I guess what's important to me is the character. I'm just sharing this to the younger GTalkers who is still out to find love. Of course having a great looks is a plus.

Back in our college days, I had two big crushes in engineering school. One majors in Chemistry and the one was the same majors as I am and both were beauty queens in our school. The other became Ms Personality of the university. But, what's so great about them is that they're active in the religious groups too.

Pansin ko lang din bakit kaya for guys, ok lang sa amin na magustuhan kami ng girl na gusto namin for our personality kahit hindi tulad namin ang gusto ng babae in terms sa looks (kunwari short yung guy or mataba) pero parang offensive para sa girls kung magustuhan sila nung guy for their personality at malaman nilang hindi type ni guy ang itsura ni girl.

Ganun talaga noh.  Parang there are things na applicable lang talaga sa mga babae.
Like for example, pag babae ka, malaking insulto mapagkamalang bakla.  Pero pag guy ka, hindi naman offensive kapag pinagkamalan kang butch (or is it?).

So hindi mo puede sabihin you like your gf/wife because of her personality. Dapat sabihin mo total package, kasama ang looks.

girltalker is right. but not only is it just a "thing" for girls, its due to the mere fact that so much shallow societal pressure is put, consciously or subconsciously, on looks. Guys are not judged that way. they are judged by other things, such as social status, riches, financial capability and stability.

More or less, its a paternal society no matter how you look at it so whatever gives less harsh judgement on a man, so it shall be.

[sacred cow]

hahahaha

kawawa naman yung mga hindi magaganda tapos sasabihin superficial mga lalake and would say na puro yung may mga looks lang ang pinapansin ng guys at hindi yung may good personality, tapos  kapag may nagkagusto sa kanila for their personality and not their looks maiinis/masasaktan...diba they should be thankful pa nga na may nagkagusto sa kanila

pero yeah, I get your point girltalker and minatay. I'm just glad lalake ako

[Prunella]

This thread is so harsh.

[little_princess]

can i volunteer my brother? not only is she not kagandahan, majorly obese pa and masama ang ugali. i don't know what he saw in her.

[Prunella]

^ Maybe she knows how to make him feel good?

[no736]

on my case, the my ex-girlfriends are not that 'kagandahan' types. mapuputi lang at charming 

there are still men like me, who looks at character more rather than looks. i get attracted to beautiful/pretty girls like all other men do. but the beauty outside, may not be the same as someone's inside, and that facade does not last as much someone's inner beauty.

my wife, i can say she's pretty and cute and ofcourse charming din, pero hindi sobrang kagandahan. and the best part is, she has a golden heart. she's the most honest, kind and caring person that i have met in my entire life she's a blessing. and i always tell her that she's the most beautiful girl in my world and that no one will ever surpass her beauty inside and out

As evidenced by all the beauty pageants etc.  Tapos kokonti lang ang male pageants, if ever ma publicize man sila.
