'UGH! You like HIM? Ewww..."

[x n0ise]

Agh. I hate it when my friends are like this. They actually had the nerve to come up to my face and say that my boyfriend 'isn't very good-looking'. You know what, who CARES what YOU think! Ahhh. That isn't very nice and relationships aren't based on looks...because if they were...well, that would just be wrong.

Anyone else here have a problem with friends who say this sort of stuff? 'Eww, you're dating HIM?' etc. I hate it. I find it very ignorant...then again, all my friends are conceited little bitches.

oh yeah- i've had this treatment. in fact, my friends even told me that Tobey Maguire is ugly! (i have a crush on Tobey)...i mean, c'mon, didn't they see his chest in "Spider-Man"?? he's totally hott. the only way that i can "get even" w/ them, is to say that their boyfriends/crushes look ugly too. i know, i know, it's a catty thing to do, but it's they only way to get them off my back! & i agree w/ you- relationships shouldn't be based on looks alone...maybe partly, but it's definetly not the only thing that makes up a good relationship.

[Gabbie]

While, I hate when people do that, I can't say that I haven't done it myself, but when I do it its not about the looks of the guy. My one friend like my best friend's ex-boyfriend, and I always hoped they would get back together so I will make up any excuse to keep other girls away from him. So anyway, he is an @$$ sometimes so I was kinda like "why do you like him", hes def. cute, so thats not why I said it. But I do hate when people say it because of the looks of the guy, unless you have a really good reason, I don't think these like that should be said. My friend went out with a guy for a while that wasn't that cute and all one of my friends could said is "he isn't cute" and i was like so what? they're nice to each other and thats what matters. it bothers me if you don't have a good reason for doing it.

I hate-hate-hate-hate-hate this.

I enjoy a cute guy as much as the next girl, but when it really comes down to it, I put little importance on outer appearance. I tend to be friends with guys, and if they're intellegent and funny, I'll like them. They don't have to be Brad Pitt, and I get laughed at and criticized when he's just average looking.

This is one of the reasons why I hate everyone. A lot of times, the good-looking guys are empty shells, no personality whatsoever. I honestly feel bad for the girls who limit themselves from 95% of available guys, when there's plenty of nice ones out there.

[Spazmatikal]

ew. i used to get this a lot because my crushes were hardly ever based on looks, so i'd end up liking some kinda ugly guys because they had awesome personalities... of course at that point they weren't ugly to me anymore. and this was in middle school where most girls weren't past the only going for hot guys stages. it's sad in today's society how much is based on looks.

[Ms.Thang_Has-It-All]

I know how you feel too. I'm thinkin', respect that I like him, because I respect that you go out with your bf.

[*Little Leprechaun Gurl*]

*sigh* I know whatcha mean. Blah...I went out with a guy who everyone thought was "disgusting" or "YOU'RE GOING OUT WITH HIM?! HE LOOKED LIKE SOME ANGERED ANIMAL!" Blah..when they didnt even know him. Blah, note that was actually said to me by a certain person who will remain nameless. Anywhoo, they had hardly met him and I had known him for quite some time. Anywhoo blah it angered me that all people I knew even the ones who were the closest to my heart were as ignorant to judge by looks. I guess it bugs me more because people judge me by looks all the time... when they dont even know me, who cares what you look like, its whats on the inside that counts. I mean we all know those perfect looking people who have the dullest personalities in the world...so what does it matter if they arent that great looking with a great personality? Blah...sad what the world has come to.

[Cassiopeia]

That is so incredibly mean. Some people are just so obsessed with looks, that they don't care about anything else. I mean, god forbid you go out with someone because they are a good person. Also, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Just because they don't think someone looks good doesn't mean that you feel the same way. I just don't understand why these people feel the need to bring everyone down. They need to get a life.

[KattyKatie]

It depends on if they're saying it about his looks or his personalities. The sad truth is that your friends know you better than anyone else and if they say a guy is going to break your heart then chances are he will.

[AlphabetSoup]

I know girls like that... argh they're so shallow!
I spose it doesn't worry me though... if i like him i guess that's all that matters aye! I try not to pay too much attention to those kinda comments... why should i care if someone doesn't like my bf? i'm the one who's going out with him

[tam]

I used to like this guy, but my friends alwas said how ugly he was, so I didn't ask him out... ...well, that was a long time ago!

I totally love this guy (lets not bring in the other problem, that he hates me for now...) but my friends can't stand him! They all fell in love with him when he was new, concieted and popular (and I wouldn't have anything to do with him) but now that he's such a nice guy (and I love him) they pretend he's not even there!
I hate this!
But I don't care, I still love him, and I remind them all roughly three times a day and watch them roll their eyes and change the subject. It's sad...

I hate this, it is the stupidest thing! My long time "crush" (I don't call it that anymore.. my feelings are deeper than that, heh), Mike, is, in my eyes, very desirable from the outside. However, that's not what I love about him.. at least that's not the only reason. When I first started liking him, ALL of my friends would make fun of me and say things like, "EWW he's so ugly!", "Why would you even talk to him? He's ugly!", "How could you like someone so ugly?" I told my friends to talk to him and get to know him, and they just laughed and asked how insane I really was. (I'm not kidding) I didn't let their opinions get the best of me, and I thank God for that. I actually felt like the "better" in the situation, not to sound conceited, but they were just so shallow! And you wanna know what's funny? Out of the 4 friends that said he was "sooo ugly" and they would "never talk to him", 3 of them are now friends with him (well, 2, he doesn't like Tiff anymore.. he says she's too shallow.. he's right!). I think that is funny. When I ask what they think about his looks now, they say, "He's just Mike, I can't judge him. He's sooo funny and I love him to death." Odd.. a few months ago, they interpreted him as the most hideous creature to ever live on this Earth. Funny how perceptions change when you actually get to know a person. As for me and Mike, I still love him like crazy, and I'm hoping he will one day return that love.. we are really good friends though.

[thevoicewithin]

This annoys me to no end. Why should my friends care who I like? Its my business, and their not the ones who like him. Plus, they don't even know him. Personality is all that matters. I mean, I like cute guys and this one is cute to me. Why can't they just leave me alone?? grrr..

[Ich Liebe Rammstein]

Like everyone else in here has said,I hate it. All of my friends have seen my boyfriend's pic (ie school friends/peers) and the only thing they can say about him is 'eww,he's ugly!'. How dare they say that. Wha happened to being a *friend*?? Even my bff made fun of him making up nicknames to call him and using them in front of me. I mean,it would hurt him alot if he heard what she was callin him. And she is supposed to be his friend.

But like others have also said,I have done it too. Saying a boy was ugly,only out of fun. But everyone has feelings.

I love my boy. And looks don't matter much to me anymore. Like I've told him,I fell in love with his personality first. He's so sweet sweet and caring.

But it's life and we'll just have to deal with it until the media says it's ok to like someone as in their personality rather than their looks.

[dizzyupthegirl]

ok... my bestfriend is cool and all, but she always says or find sumthing bad about my bf. I mean it doesn't matter what she thinks of him, its my opinion that matters!
