morostheos Posted October 12, 2005 Posted October 12, 2005 Could you define what exactly you mean by being shallow? One can be shallow in many different ways....

onathing1 Posted October 12, 2005 Posted October 12, 2005 i personally don't think that it is a sin, it's just a stab in the wrong direction. being shallow may end up leading to other things.not to mention its kind of cruel. i mean, say you wanted to go out with a girl**or guy depending on who you are** just for her looks and not who she was...and then she found out. how do you think she would feel?
Cow of Shame Posted October 12, 2005 Posted October 12, 2005 If a girl wanted to go out with me 'cause of my overwhelming hottness, I'd think, 'heh, that's right, baby,". I'd go on at least one pity date with her...two or more if she was smokin'.
onathing1 Posted October 12, 2005 Posted October 12, 2005 pity dates hurt people, i wouldn't know from experience, but i know people who have been hurt by them. and if you went out with a girl because she said you were'overwhelmingly hot' then i find that very sad. you're not looking for anything more in your relationship then only a few dates, no marriage will probably even be thought about. and that's why people used to date, because they were looking for a spouse. now it's just, 'everybody's dating,lets do it!'. it's taken far to lightly, and as a result, many little 12 year olds are no longer acting their age and being kids, they're now 12 going on 20 and trying to be much older then they are and need to be.

philothea Posted October 12, 2005 Posted October 12, 2005 I think "love your neighbor as yourself" contradicts shallowness in dating. Or shallowness in dealing with anyone, ever.
Theoketos Posted October 12, 2005 Posted October 12, 2005 (edited) If by shallow you mean solely basing your attraction on looks then yes. The person who does this is treating the person as an object. In other words you become a tool by treating her like a tool. (A tool for an erotic experiece not a person to which total recipretive self donation can happen) If by shallow you mean being attracted at first to the person's physical beauty, then no, so long as that attraction is intergrated into Love. For Love purifies the attraction. Increases it. Makes it holy and healthy. [quote]Only ugly people say stuff like this. I feel so sorry for you.... [/quote] Only asses say stuff like this.

Sojourner Posted October 12, 2005 Posted October 12, 2005 I see nothing wrong with casual, non-exclusive dating if both parties are aware of the situation and on the same page as far as the relationship goes. Communication is key, as is true with any relationship at any point.

Heh [right][snapback]755374[/snapback][/right] [/quote] thank you! and by the way cow of shame, there's nothing wrong with finding a person attractive, it's just the fact that you would go out with that person for only one reason, and that is her looks...never mind who she is, her dreams, her goals in life, and the way she may love you...hell, as long as she's hot and has an awesome body, you're happy...have you ever thought of if she was? how her heart could break when you guys end? dig a little deeper hun, and stop judging people on looks.

You put up a good front for all your pious little friends, but you can't fool me. You're so filled with jealousy, most would mistake you for the Green Lantern. C'mon, you know you want the hotties you can never have... poor poor Theoketos lol
Cow of Shame Posted October 12, 2005 Posted October 12, 2005 A Realty chick? Yeah, that sounds good. You've got to be good looking to sell a lot of houses, and then they're loaded with cash...there's some major greens to be had in real estate. It's better if it's daddy's money, but as long as they're stacked & have stacks, then it's all good in my book. It's so hard to 'pic' (sic), but so far, I've been able to just bounce from one looker to another without having to make any big choices. No hurry....
philothea Posted October 12, 2005 Posted October 12, 2005 Cut it out, CoS. Snarky is one thing, personal insults are entirely another.

Cow of Shame Posted October 12, 2005 Posted October 12, 2005 (edited) Heh...I'm waiting for Theoketos to reply. He's the only one of you with the spheroids to call me an ass & laugh at me. The rest of you guys are just whiney little [color=red](that's not nice!!)[/color] and are quite boring. To post a picture of my studly wonderfulness would cause you to weep at not having a chance in hades of ever having me...and that would be too cruel, even for me.
