Dear Breakup Girl,
If a guy is interested in you, the only thing that you can find wrong with
him is his looks and on that basis you reject him, does that make you the most
shallow person on Earth? Please reassure me that you have to be attracted to
someone, or else it wouldn't work...please?
-- Worried
Dear Worried,
Yes, you have to be "attracted" to someone.
Or at least feel the potential stirrings thereof. So answer me -- and yourself
-- this: When you decided to take a pass, what, in essence, were your thoughts?
Can you honestly say, in good conscience, that you rummaged through all of your
hormones and neurons and other chemical apparati and came up with no gut-level
attraction whatsoever? Or did you think, "Well, he's not the biggest
hottie in the world, I'm afraid of what people will think..." ? Breakup
Girl honestly doesn't know which it is. But you do.
Love,
Breakup Girl
