People use transformative filters on their faces on dating apps all the time. If you show up and find someone with a completely different face, is there any chance of romance? I have no idea... the best I can guess is

- No, but people do it anyway due to anxiety

- People can be pressured, the trick is to meet them the first time

- People say they care about faces, but don't actually care about faces

I am not attractive. Thankfully once I am being given the chance to have a conversation with people, after that, they find me attractive regardless of my appearance, in fact, I am more attractive now in their eyes due to the way "I am". Oftentimes all it takes is a deeper conversation.

It happened to me, too. I did not find someone particularly attractive, but their experiences, their views of relationships, the world, and so forth somehow ended up making them look more attractive.
