| Yeah.....um, not a good idea. Run. Sonetimes we get gifts of prophetic information. This is sn example of that. |
| Sounds like something a low-prestige insecure douchebag from a state school would say. Perpetual frat boy, I'd bet. |
| Maybe he used to be an ugly duckling and now is just insecure about his looks, so it comes out in weird ways. I think she should see him more and gather more data. |
|
Is she absolutely positive that his statement was not said in jest??
It's just an off-handed comment. I wouldn't write him off based on that remark. |
|
I think he's just kidding. Isn't it obvious by the way he's using the term "gorgeous" vs. using something conventional such as "good looking" or "handsome."
She didn't get it. It's a humor mismatch. It will get boring as a couple. |
| Men are cocky. I wouldn't read too much into it. |
|
So why has no one else asked… Is he gorgeous?
If not he's being funny. |
+1 He could've been joking because he's not goodlooking (or doesn't think he is), so he thought she would get the joke. Or, he IS a good looking guy who has more to offer and wants women to like him for more than just his looks. You know, that women human beings do. Either way, it was off-handed and not at all an indication of narcisism (sp). As one poster said, he was he was a conceited narcisist, he would use that to his advantage instead of using that to rule out women. Your sister sounds uptight and judgy. |
| This is why so many women wake up one day at 40, still single, and wonder why. A man has the tiniest of flaws and suddenly he's not good enough. |
| Maybe he has lost a lot of weight. Sometimes the effect of that is to cause a person to constantly be amazed by themselves, rightly so, and to overly enjoy how much better they look. |
| Update for anyone who is curious: my sister went on a few more dates with him but ultimately called it quits. She said he didn't really do anything else vain-seeming, except that he has a sepia-tone framed photo of himself with a dog on his desk at work. My sister asked the dog's name, and he said he didn't know. |
I can not stop laughing at this. |
| This is hilarious. Need more details. What else did your sister learn about him before in ended, OP? |
Cats are flawless. |
| Is he gorgeous? |
