acne
I met this guy online and we had been talking for several months. We go along great and we got to the point where we were talking every day. Well, he sent me a few pics of him and I sent a few back. He was pretty cute but many of the pictures were a bit blurry. We set up to meet for dinner on Saturday night. He told me what he would be wearing and I told him. I got there a few minutes late because I wanted to get a peek at him before going over to introduce myself. He was very handsome but had a lot of acne on his face. I was really surprised because he seemed like he was a bit old to have pimples. I didn't run or anything like that, I am not a very superficial person. I wanted to see if he was as nice in person as he was on the web. We really hit it off. It wasn't even the slightest bit awkward. We talked through dinner and desert and then went for a walk on the pier. Well, over all it was a great date. It just really was still bothering me how bad his complexion was, and I thought to myself, why doesn't he use a good acne treatment or something. There are so many great things available for treating acne, it just seems like a shame.
I will see him again, as he is a beautiful person and I really do enjoy his company. I realize that the problem with his acne is not truly his problem, it is mine as I am hoping after a few more dates that it doesn't bother me as much. The truth is I don't want to give up a great guy over something as stupid as some acne. There are not that many fish in the sea, and many of them are rotten. Having a guy who is good, is way more important to me than how his skin looks. I just wish more people could see the great qualities that lie inside a person and stop looking at just the physical. Many beautiful people are truly hideous underneath it all.
