Attracted to somebody i’m not physically attracted to

So let me tell you about this girl Francesca...

She was in 1990, is of Italian, Lebanese, and Syrian American decent. She looks like a female version of Weird Al Yankovic with long, curly, dark auburn hair; because of her texture it oftenlooks like 1970s hair - straight on top, but wavier as it flows down.

She is very thin, tiny boobs, and about 5’7’ tall. She has a naturally quiet voice.

I know her from higschool and our paths recently crossed. I’m single and thought to myself “there’s something about Francesca I like.” But I don’t know why. I’m not physically attracted to her, she awkward, but she is smart and sweet. I would like to give her a chance at dating, but know how to approach this reclusive girl.

  • We didn’t really need to know her year of birth or ethnicity, but she’s sound like a wonderful lady to be in relationship with. She’s probably very loyal and sweet.

    Yes, sometimes you are attracted to people because of their personality rather than their looks. With several of the guys I've liked over the years, I didn't really notice them much at first and thought of them as just average, but started to like them as I got to know them better. For me, I don't usually develop feelings or true attraction until I get to know someone.

    I think It's because you're not sexually attracted to her.

    • I think that’s a factor as well. On top of that she’s quiet intelligent and caring, although little religious, which is the only turn off for me.

    Ask her out on a few dates to get to know her. Keep it casual, low key/pressure, and don’t have any serious expectations. You might surprise yourself.

    If you still feel this will be a serious problem for you after a date or two, however, I wouldn’t lead her on.

    If you like her, get to know her better. How she looks isn't as important as her personality.

    I work with a girl who is really unfortunate looking. She is somewhat cross eyed, has bottle glasses and buck teeth and is a little dense with a weird dorky attitude. For whatever reason I find myself staring at her whenever she is around. I dont talk to her because she is too strange but I can't take my eyes off her.

    She is a train wreck and she is amazing!!!

    • At least Francesca is smart unlike your coworker.

      I forgot to mention her eyes tend to be focused upward instead of straight somewhat like a person with Cerebral Palsy, but she dosen’t have it.

        Socially dense, not intellectually.

        • Gotcha. Well, I wouldn’t call her socially dense, but perhaps severally timid and awkward.
