Your Imperfection Makes You More Attractive

When we’re attractive, we also become more influential, more likable, and more persuasive, and more people will want to befriend us or pursue a romantic relationship with us. But what is it exactly that makes someone so attractive? Well, you don't have to be perfect. Sometimes, it's the "flaws" that make you attractive. So, what are they? Watch to find out.

There was this girl in my class that was really shy and clumsy, everyone thought it was adorable and charming. But whenever I was being shy or was clumsy everyone thought I was weird or creepy. Only difference between the two of us was that she was physically attractive and I wasn't.

Don't listen to me I'm just being bitter over the fact that no matter what I do my ugliness is always put first.


Edit: nvm guys, , it was just a combination of me being hella insecure, surrounded by rude ppl, and also not being conventionally attractive

The thing about me is that i am shy around new people but im not shy around people i know. I always thought that shy was cute but i didnt realize that i actually was until i picked you guys up! Thank you all much for getting me to where i am now, even when i have nobody to support me in my life. (Most of my "friends" are toxic ngl)

Only works if you're also PHYSICALLY attractive

With someone who is shy all the time and would rather keep to themselves this was really nice to hear❤️

As a person whos always been pressured, overworked, and stressed, all of these factors, 1-8, make anybody I meet instantly more attractive. I love being talked to, seeing someone else weak (but in a good way), and touched. It makes me feel better about myself, it makes me feel needed, and its simply enjoyable.

"You're clumsy"

Me: I see this as an absolute win

Nobody can be perfect, but that's what makes them relatable

I told my coworker my true feelings about her, but she said she doesn’t like men like that. It was the fact she was open and honest about her sexuality that made me feel great! 😊

0:54 This one only goes one way. Shy girls are cute to guys, while shy guys are often seen as unconfident, weird or even creepy by girls. I'm a shy person, the only time I was able to make a girl interested in me was when I was faking being extroverted and outgoing.

[nocs]

Speaking from experience as a shy man, there are women that find these traits attractive, but I don't think it's very many. Another downside is even IF that's her type, a woman is very unlikely to initiate the conversation--it does happen, but it's absurdly rare. So unless you're willing to fight your shy nature and awkwardly approach a woman that catches your interest, you're pretty much screwed.

I've been told by my English teacher that being shy is a negative trait 😢 he was telling the whole class & was looking at me 😭 I felt so sad on that day & even from time to time, since I am naturally a shy person but this video gives me hope ❤️

I really relate to the taking your time thing. When me and my boyfriend were talking, I asked him if we could take our time! He gave me all the time I need so after 7 months of being “just friends” we started dating and I think our relationship is stronger because of it!❤

After watching many videos like this, I figure out we should just be ourselves and some people will find us attractive.

[mattchew]

I've been told that my "forgetfulness" was cute. This was the one and only time that someone thought that one of my flaws was cute or charming.

[mingmerci]

This world confuses me these days. I don't know what is attractive any more, these qualities turn into things people end up hating. I have a lot of these qualities in this video but I'm alone and always have been even when in relationships.

I swear this girl is just defining me-
