Nice guy

Today, I went on a blind date. At the end of the night, I told him I had a surprisingly great time. He replied, "Yeah, that was fun. You're really funny and smart. If you were pretty, I'd totally go out with you again." FML

Guess he wishes he was 'blind' on that date.

At least you got to see what a true asshole he was

It may sound like a bull overused phrase, but beauty really is in the eye of the beholder. Once I was set up and I have to admit, after seeing her photos, I thought she wasn't really good looking. But I went anyway, because what do photos really tell you about a person. She looked exactly like in the photos, so the photos weren't from unflattering angles or whatever, but when I saw her face "live", she was full of expression and very very soon, I caught myself thinking - wow, she is so freakin beautiful. We went out for a while, every time I saw her I was more captivated with her, but it didn't work out due to different life goals and stuff like that. Still, it was a great life lesson on "beauty" for me.

I agree with you; once you know a person, their looks can dramatically change. My ex is good looking, but since I know he is an abusive, deadbeat dad, he is ugly to me. My current boyfriend is not the best looking guy, but he is the most attractive guy to me. Op-- this guy sounds superficial and you dodged a bullet early on.

You should write a book. You've already written the first 2 chapters in the comment above. Good for you.

You dont need him, you'll find the right one eventually. :)

I don't understand why people think they can say things like that and it won't hurt the other person's feelings. It's rude and unnecessary. He did not have to say that she was not pretty.

they don't think that other will or will not hurt their feelings.

I think he must have thought OP was being sarcastic she did say, "Surprising good time."

That's an excellent point. It's always good to try and see all viewpoints in a situation.

Wait. I'm not supposed to hurt other people's feelings? Well damn, that would explain a few things...

What an asshole, who would say that and just act like it's okay?

"And if you weren't such a jerk, I'd totally go out with you again."

Somebody's a shallow jerk :/ Sorry OP! You'll find someone who loves you for who you are :)

At least you found out after the first date and not longer down the road. You'll find the right one someday!

I'll go on a blind date with you! Being funny and smart far outweighs being drop dead gorgeous any day. everyone can be so shallow nowadays

I'll fight you for her... no wait, I'm taken, nevermind. I do agree though, funny and smart makes a girl a lot more attractive. OP will find someone who isn't as shallow. In the meantime, carry a whiffle bat in case of shallow jerks.
