Have you ever dated or been in a relationship with a woman who was objectively speaking much more attractive than you are? How did that make you feel? Were you insecure? Etc
I would say a couple of them. The last one was kind of a granola gal, not high maint., but incredibly young looking for her age (40). The fact that she was granola, and made her own clothes made her on the average side, but honestly, I thought she was more attractive than me.

I guess you could say it was just her lifestyle humbled her to date an average Joe.

Gotta love hippy women, they tend not to be nearly as materialistic in their judgment of others including potential partners as MOST women in the general population. that woman may have simply felt a connection to you, sounds like you passed up on a keeper. and the yoga, homegrown food tends to keep them younger looking.

I agree, I never dated a girl even with or less attractive than me, and never would have. A few times I was greatly surprised that they would be willing to go out with me. The last one that I dated who was more attractive than me is my wife.

I didn't pass her up, not sure what made you think that. We ended things because she wanted to have kids (yes at the age of 40).
