TBF this is basically every not-great-looking male lead.

I've always gotten women way out of my league because they like my personality, and they say I'm a nice person and they feel safe with me. Guys, women have the bar set pretty dam low. Just use active listening, actually care about them beyond just their body, respect them, and it helps to have fun, interesting hobby, and to really like animals. Like that's it, fellas. I'm in my late 30s, and my last girlfriend was in her mid-20s and way outta my league. Now it didn't work because we are at different points in our lives, but that's nbd.

Or are you just selling your looks short?

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago

dude have you never seen couples? gorgeous women go out with totally average looking dudes all the time.

[–] VelvetStorm@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Lol no I'm short and fat. I have a realistic view of myself.

[–] tegs_terry@feddit.uk 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah, but how can I trust that assessment if you are lowballing your looks? I think we should see. Draw a photorealistic picture of yourself and upload, and I can judge.

Lmao. I wasn't expecting a reply.

[–] yum@lemmy.eco.br 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I agree with you on that, but I usually get stuck in the just friends portion of the whole thing. Maybe I am a little too ugly?

[–] VelvetStorm@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Nah, the thing is, you need to declare your intentions fairly early on. Like with in the first few times you hang out.

[–] Rubanski@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Exactly, if you wait too long making the leap of faith, more often then not you will be already in the friend zone

[–] VelvetStorm@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I am not a fan of that term but yes that is very true.

[–] Rubanski@lemm.ee 1 points 1 year ago

I'm with you, I used the term for a broader audience

[–] ThunderWhiskers@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

I don't like this being a focal point, but I think it's worth asking if you don't mind: what is your income like? Reality being what it is, that can make a measurable difference.

[–] VelvetStorm@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago

I live paycheck to paycheck while being able to save a little for fun every once in a while.

You could have just used his picture

[–] FenrirIII@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

It's'a me, Adam a'Sandler. Woopido doooooo'a!

[–] Underwaterbob@lemm.ee 24 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's a real-life thing. Look at any comedic actor from the past fifty years, and then image search up a picture of their wife. The discrepancy in physical attractiveness is almost always glaring. Humor (and money) is attractive.

[–] Rusty@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Pete Davidson looks like a homeless drug addict and he dated Ariana Grande, Kate Beckinsale and Emily Ratajkowski.

[–] whoreticulture@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

People always say this but like ... he is actually good looking? Not movie star good looks, but yeah his face looks good. I always assume this is coming from straight guys.

[–] ValorieAF@lemmy.world 17 points 1 year ago (2 children)

The exception: Little Nicky

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 16 points 1 year ago

The love interest in Little Nicky wasnt Patricia Arquette, but Popeye's Chicken.

[–] AquaTofana@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Easily my favorite Adam Sandler movie.

[–] ValorieAF@lemmy.world 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's so stupid, but it has its moments

[–] Iheartcheese@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

The best moment is between the opening credits and the closing credits

[–] AllNewTypeFace@leminal.space 13 points 1 year ago (1 children)

He’s Woody Allen with the pseudointellectual posturing replaced with grossout gags

[–] VelvetStorm@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

Let's not compare him to a child molester.

[–] Lampadaire_raclette@jlai.lu 3 points 1 year ago

The minute hour is king

[–] Kolanaki@yiffit.net 9 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Jack and Jill was the weirdest one because it's Adam Sandler falling in love with Adam Sandler in a wig.

[–] OozingPositron@feddit.cl 11 points 1 year ago

Wasn't it Al Pacino falling for Jill? And I think Jill was Adam's sister or something like that.

[–] Jarix@lemmy.world 9 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (1 children)

Nsfw His actual wife

Edit: hey mods ill change the picture if this isn't appropriate, there's many to choose from this one just seemed the most appropriate to the post.

[–] DragonTypeWyvern@midwest.social 18 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I don't think his characters tend to have as much money as he does

[–] Jarix@lemmy.world 0 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Not sure why you bringing that up? Is that somehow relevant?

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

Of course it's relevant. Money is attractive.

[–] blanketswithsmallpox@lemmy.world 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Homies Adam Sandler is probably better looking than every one of you, richer, funnier, and isn't making shit memes making fun about people's looks he doesn't even know.

At least Jack and Jill gave people jobs lol.

The man is one of the funniest people defining the millenial's generation.

[–] JoeKis@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

You had no reason to use such an awful AI image for princess peach. There are so many talented artists out there. Shame on you...
