How do you feel, guys and girls, about dating someone with skin problems?
crystal spring asked:
so the person can be cute, i’m cute. i just break out often and i have blotchy skin. but like you can’t tell unless i were to wash my face or something. or like reveal myself. but other than that i’m a great well rounded educated person…
does problem skin that a guy or girl has, make a person less dateable to you? even if you get to know their personality, background history, etc.

Nothing matters but the heart and the soul.
not in the least bit. if that was all that was wrong with someone i was in a relationship with i would do anything i could to never lose them.
Personally i’ve never been attracted to guys who have Acne. I have girl friends who have acne and it doesn’t bother me at all. But for some reason i don’t like hecca acne on a guy. I’m not trying to be mean that’s just how I am. But if you break out once in a while i don’t think that’s a big deal but if you have hecca acne and don’t take care of it the right way i think that’s kinda gross.
If it’s really disgusting, yeah obviously it can affect first time impressions. But in the long run, it doesn’t really matter.
Although, I have to say my girlfriend judges people almost entirely on their skin… some people who are really really ugly (not just my opinion) she thinks are attractive because they have really nice skin.
So, I’d have to say its a person-by-person basis… but I don’t think it matters too much in the long run.
No, so many people struggle with acne and stuff, they cant help it, and I mean, no one wants to have it, but some people just do, its kinda normal.
not really. no one’s perfect. it’s better to have some physical imperfection than an emotional or social one.
I wasn’t aware that skin was what matters when your looking for happiness with someone!
jeah. im pretty sure i figured out how to get rid of it. on the face. Wash your pillow! Its filthy. Amazing results. Don’t buy into the “medication”.
Beauty is skin deep so breakouts, blotchiness would not deter me from dating someone I liked.

It depends on your personality, when i started dating my fiance he had a lot of acne but honestly i never thought about it or noticed. Humans get clogged pores..call it a flaw but i think its normal
it doent matter looks dont matter!!
I wish people would have only looked at my personality. I had bad acne up until a few years ago when I started going tanning, but I wouldn’t mind dating someone with bad skin..doesn’t bother me a bit..why? Because they’re most likely a beautiful person on the inside..that’s what really counts!
in a way yes, we all have some bad days but if it continues, then you should get proactive or soemthing.
as long as they don’t have leprosy I guess it would be OK
I would rather be friends with someone that is cool and has a skin problem than someone who looks gorgeous, but has a bad attitude and personality.
I do think that people look at you differently when you have a skin problem. I have psoriasis and I often break out when I am stressed or when its cold and dry outside. When I was in highschool people picked on me and called me names like “scaleyton” and just retarted stuff like that. I started to think that no matter how much I thought I was pretty that people only saw my break outs. But Trust me, there are guys out there that will look past it, and love you for who you really are.
if u ask me , i think that’s stupid … u date people because u like there personality….. eve heard of the saying love is blind
in my opinion i don’t think it would matter if my boy friend had problems with his skin.. we’re just teens and i luv him for him.. i mean don’t get me wrong.. he is hot.. but say he was ever like burned in a fire.. id never give him up.. i truley luv him for him.. thats all that i think matters.. not skin type..
hope this helps
i really dont think it does that much after u get to kno the person
i think of its rly rly rly bad then maybe a little bit
but looks dont always matter
i think after u get to know a person wat they look like starts to not matter as much
and if u are in a relationship with someone who has it rly rly rly bad then just try to help them because you like them
but since u say u can t see it on a regular basis and it only happens sometimes then ur fine
someone who rly likes u for u will come
and not care bout wat u look like as much
i mean every body breaks out every once in a while
and sometimes its worse than others
theres not much u can do bout it
its just part of growing up
its no big deal

Of course I can only speak for myself, but since I used to have the same problem with my skin (not so much anymore), and also speaking from an adult perspective - I tend not to rush to judgement about skin issues. I cant say that I am not attracted to people phyically right off the bat, but for “visual” turn offs are things like sloppy clothes, dirty finger nails, and pretty much anything that indicates that the person just doesnt take care of themselves.
No one is perfect and I would trade bad skin for a crappy personality in a hot minute whether it comes to friends or otherwise.
But bad skin definately does not scare me away.
to some people ot does matter the face it what they look at first but u should be ok i mean i think it should be based off personality
You should be loved for who you are - as a well rounded, caring individual.
Some people are just attracted to others for their looks. Personally, I think the inner personality is more appealing to me. If I planned to be with someone long term, I would be more concerned about trust, caring/love, friendship, etc.
In my opinion, I have friends who are after nothing but model standard partners and spend hours grooming themselves - worried about every inch of their body. I see nothing wrong with looking after yourself (I think it is important) but if it takes over your life, I think it can be part of a shallow personality.
Everyone grows older, etc - even those stunners out there - they all grow old, develop wrinkles, lines and possibly start to sag. But the one thing we are left with in perfect condition is our personality and sense of humour!
Be proud of who you are. Your special person will love you for it.
if someone thinks its about your external charictars he is not good enough for you i always break out and i have best friends and a wonderful boyfriend that loves me… this is because i made the right choices
it depends on the person.
but i have guy friends that are really fun and chill to hang out with, and they break out in some spots. but they’re still dateable.
i go for whats OUTside AND inside.
my friends are all attractive,we love having fun, and we get really good grades. i’m not trying to sound conceited or mean.
but what draws me to a person, first, is their appearance. like skin, hair, teeth, smile, body.
and if they have the personality to match, it’s amazing.
though people say, its what’s inside that counts, looks matter too.
but inside helps a lot
