Anybody stay with somebody who was clearly insane (or perhaps stupid, or rude, etc.) mainly because they were attractive?
How I Met Your Mother illustrates this beautifully, explaining that a woman is allowed a certain amount of crazy as long as it’s less than or equal to her hotness.
This applies to men too, because I’ve seen women excuse a lot because of looks.
So have you ever been with somebody that was clearly ___ just because they were attractive?

[People will put up with a lot of crazy shit the hotter/richer/more successful the other person is. Case in point: every celebrity ever.
(I keed, I keed.)
[I’m not usually the crazy one…I don’t think…but I’ve definitely stayed with someone who was pretty much the definition of personality disorder. And I didn’t do it only because he was hot…but I definitely overlooked big red flags in the beginning because I was head over heels for his hotness. And smartness, but that’s a different question.
[Guilty as charged! I have stayed with a guys(okay, guys) who were definitely either not smart, not sane, etc. because they were hot or great in bed…or both. I’m not saying it’s right, but it happens. It’s much easier to forgive someone super-hot than someone average. I didn’t ever marry those guys, so in retrospect it might have been a waste of time…but it was fun!
[All of my exes were hot and crazy, but I think that’s cause I drove them insane. I’m guessing I’m the crazy one and I rub off on them, but then I don’t understand why they had dated me in the first place!
[Beware the Vicky Mendoza diagonal!
[No, anyone that crazy who wanted to date me hasn’t been hot enough to balance it out.
Maybe I’m the crazy one?
[I’ve been with a couple cuh-razy assholes, and put up with way too much stuff from them. I wish it was because they were attractive. At least then I would have gotten something out of the relationship!
[I definitely think my boyfriend stays with me because I’m hot… I have most definitely thrown loads of crazy his way. 😉
[It’s never me… I think I’m exactly crazy enough to stay on the Mendoza line. But then again, I’ve been called bat-shit more than once. Today.
I’ve definitely had crushes on guys that were SO hot I was trying to overlook the crazy, but I never could.
[My ex was a real nutcase. And I probably stayed with her longer than I did because I was hypnotized by her magnificent, magnificent breasts.
Hey, call me shallow all you want, but it’s hard to give up the right to touch those things. *drool*
[Yes but those relationships never last more than 2-3 weeks. After 2-3 weeks, I’m so frustrated with their __, that their attractiveness does ABSOLUTELY NOTHING for me. On the flip side, guys that are nice, smart, sensitive, outgoing, interesting, and interested – but not at all attractive – only last 2-3 weeks too. Basically, I’m forever single. One day, dammit, I will meet someone with all of those qualities. I may be 78 by the time that happens, but I’m holding out.
