  • None of us are flawless. I wouldn't even want to date a guy who was so shallow, that he was more concerned about a few scars on my back, than he was about the person I am inside.

  • Wouldn't bother me at all. My ex has pretty significant scars on her face from some kind of injury, which she never talked about so I don't know what happened. I still think she was hot. If a guy is bothered by that stuff they are probably shallow and worried what their friends will think, which makes them pretty immature and you're best without them.

  • It’s my experience people tend to date the whole person and not just someone’s back.

    Your concern is reasonable and understandable, and I'm sure there are guys who would find the scars so unattractive that they were more important than all your other qualities and attributes.

    However, you probably don't really want to spend time with guys who are obsessed with women who are physically flawless.

    I'm sure the scars wouldn't be an issue for most guys, and there will even be some guys who would actually like them.

    If I liked her of course I would. It wouldn't cross my mind.

    If it is perfection you are seeking you will be dead before you find it.

    Treatment for them probably doesn't have to be expensive. Aren't there creams that you can rub in to help the scars fade?

    Anyways if a man wants them removed so badly through more expensive means, he should be prepared to pay for your treatment himself. Just in my opinion. If a man wants a top-shelf woman he best be a good provider, guess I'm traditional.

        There definitely are, and there's bottom shelf men too (I'm sure I got the thumbs down just because I didn't say "men can be bottom shelf too!" in my comment)

        I don't live with my head in the clouds. Some people let their looks go, have no personality, are toxic and parasitical in dating, have no direction in life, and are therefore not dateable. Sorry for having standards.

          Behavoir can be bottom shelf, not people.

          Ubdateable yes, 99.9% of people are undateable to a given individual, however is doesn't mean they have no value to someone else.

    Hey all, OP here. Just wanted to thank you all for the kind and honest comments. Previously, I wanted to get treatment because I thought nobody would want me with the scars. Now, I want it only because I want to love and take care of myself. Thank you once again.

    Yes. It would be totally shallow to not date a woman just because of scars. There are shallow people out there that will diss a girl or guy from some physical characteristic. I try not to be that way though.

    You're fine. Only pussy ass guys (not all men) care about scarring, especially something as little as acne scars. So if a guy is like, "Oh no.... You're no good cause you had acne in your teens like most people, this wont WORK!" Then yeah, he's not the guy for you or anyone in the real world.

    Yes. Why wouldn't I? I mean it's not like a fetish but who cares. I have oily skin and have acne everywhere. It's normal.

    If their personality is attractive, their body will be too... unless they are a 300+ lb whale. Thats where I draw the line in my relationships.

    It's really up to you, not me, if you don't like the scars, it'll be a problem. If you think you can look past them, then it'll be fine.
