There could be a guy I'm very attracted to, but has a horrible personality, is mean or arrogant or something along those lines. If I chose the looks over the horrible personality, I would consider that shallow.


Really; what's his name?

I do not think there is anything shallow about having prefences, even if it includes a person exterior. Looks are important to some people, I don't think it makes them shallow.

Shallow to me is someone who has no depth in their own personality. Someone who expects everything from their partner but has no output. If your preferences are lengthy and particular than you should also be willing to put out the same expectations of your partner.

People who have a preference of wealth--this is not a personal(physical or mental) trait, therefore (TO ME) constitutes as shallow.


lack of depth ... shallow... good one...


I know, thanks, glasses That's why i am so smart....


of course

To you, what is the difference between someone having preferences and someone being shallow? What do you think makes someone shallow?

Does it bother you when you don't fit into someone's preferences?

What kind of preferences do you have when it comes to dating? Are you willing to change your mind on those preferences, depending on the person you're getting to know?


God. I feel like I am answering extra credit questions on an exam. slaphead :laughing:

It boils down to this for me....

"I do...but, not with you"

If you say it..it is just your preference.
If someone else says it...they "must" be shallow.

Exactly, smartalleck!drinker



what we prefer is what makes us who we are.

if you are a strict practitioner and adhere to your standards then what someone else thinks is moot.

it makes little sense to accept just any old thing because it is in front of you at that given moment.

you usually end up regretting your decision and if you continue to repeat it you will lead a reasonably miserable existence.

I dont accept any old thing,(or young), just because it's in front of me. I take what I want and pass by what I dont want. I am not aviricious or anything, but I know what I prefer.

I think it gets down to the basics... never judge a book by it's cover. Unless it is something you absolutely can not tolerate, everything is possible. GL

Exactly. Ones persons preference is another persons shallowness. Looks and personality have always been part of the equation in attraction between men and women. Those that say having preferences by appearence are shallow usually are coming up short by that one individuals preference.

Sometimes the people who call people shallow are actually shallow themselves.
