When I was in Junior High I use to tell my girlfriends “how can you even be dating him if he’s ugly he isn’t even attractive.” So when I was in junior high I would always be like that “uh, no I can’t go out with him because he ugly he isn’t good looking.” Ever since I was a little girl, I thought guys with spiked up hair were cute. Even when I hit freshmen year in high school I would still go out with guys that I considered cute because that’s all I cared about. Until one day, freshmen year, second semester a guy asked me to be his girlfriend. He did, of course, have spiked up hair but I didn’t think he was what I called cute so I had told my friend about him and she was like “you know what Sheila you shouldn’t care how they look.” Since I was small my sisters and mom told me to not go for the looks because a guy could be cute or hot and be an ass in the inside and treat you really bad or he can be ugly and be the sweetest guy ever, or he can be in between, not be a cute guy or ugly but be like oh he looks good and still be sweet and you got to get to know them as well. Well since that day that he had asked me to be his girlfriend I gave him a chance and since that day we have been dating and we’ll have five years together in February 5. If it wasn’t for her advice I would probably still be going out with guys just for their looks but, since she gave me advice telling me what they had told her I went and followed it too and I got to find out he was very sweet and he is a supportive boyfriend.
