Have you ever known anyone who has looked attractive one day, and downright ugly the next?

Asked by Jude (32204points) April 6th, 2011

We’re not talking someone who looks disheveled the next day (messy hair, no make-up). Just their appearance, they look unattractive?

Like that Seinfeld episode where Jerry’s girlfriend looks good in certain venues, and hideous in others…?

Yes. The good looking guy that turned out to be a major ass. :/

Yes, a woman that used to be at work, and is still in mt industry. She looks fantastic one day, tall, blonde, great figure. The next day she looks horrid. I think it has to do with how much sleep and whether she drinks or not, but on a bad day her skin sags like melted wax, and her hair looks lifeless. It’s not just me, I mentioned to someone I’d seen her and I was asked, “was she in Jekyll or Hyde mode?”

No…lol. If someone is attractive, they remain that way until their body goes through a major physical change, like missing a nose, for example.

I don’t know about people, but my mirror does that from time to time…

I can’t say I’ve ever noticed. But, fun science tidbit: research has shown that women’s attractiveness changes across the menstrual cycle, maxing out during the fertile phase :)

Yep. Going to sleep and waking up the next morning will do that to ya!
Other than that…I’ve known guys that were only attractive with a hat on…?

No, not really.

Yes. Attractiveness has a lot to do with state of mind.

@Jude I’m sure you’d like to think so, whatever floats your boat.

Yes, my sister in law. I swear even the shape of her face seems to change when she is mad or pouting, which is a lot of the time, and she looks downright ugly and a little scary.. Other than those times, she is very pretty.

Can’t really think of an example. I know someone who just didn’t interest me at all one day and the next day they looked super hot because they cut their hair or they weren’t wearing glasses or something. Those little things can really make a difference for me…

In college I knew a guy who was like a male version of Jerry’s girlfriend from Seinfeld. He could look pleasantly cute or positively menacing depending on the lighting.

@Facade That describes most male country music singers.

My husband’s best friend. He is an attractive man; however, lack of sleep or a rough weekend and AHHHH!

One of the guys who was on my school trip to Italy a few years ago. He was, hands down, the most sexually attractive man I had ever met. Tall, dark, muscular, smart, with gorgeous shoulder-length, dark, curly hair. I’m not usually one to fall for long hair, but his was always well-kept and nice. I fell hard for this guy. I’ve had countless dreams about him, and still have them at least once a month or so.

We’re Facebook friends (we were classmates) and a few months ago I noticed that he’d cut his hair. All that gorgeous hair, gone – now he just has a regular short haircut. And he’s not attractive anymore.

It wasn’t just his hair that I liked – he’s handsome with a great smile and all the other stuff, but for some reason, as soon as I saw photos of him with short hair, I wasn’t attracted to him anymore. Stupid, huh? I still dream about him all the time, but his hair is still long in my dreams.
