I don’t think it’s something “objective” - it doesn’t happen with all attractive people or even most of them. And I don’t think others find them as attractive either. But sometimes, some very few times, I see someone either irl or online and I literally can’t stop staring at them. I think about them for hours afterwards. It’s only happened a handful of times but by god it is so freaking weird.
If there is an “objective” rating system, even if it’s subjective to the observer, then these people are not 8 or 9 or 10. They are outside the freaking scale. And I don’t mean they’re 11/10 or something. No, the scale just doesn’t even apply to them.
Like, am I weird? Does this only happen to me? Should I get my brain checked? It this what people mean when they say “type”?
To add on to this, what is it about certain people who are attractive (but not insanely attractive) that you see as insanely attractive?
I don’t know if that makes sense, but it makes sense in my head
Tilda swinton and Kristen schaal for me.
Well that's bc Tilda is an otherworldly entity descended from a higher plane of existence to vex us.
You really fucking nailed it with Tilda Swinton. That’s the exact “look” of two people who have broken my heart.
I truly don’t even know if what I am trying to describe makes sense. I’m very high right now
I have two trans friends who had their egg crack immediately upon watching "Orlando". Just "Ohh she's so incredibly pretty but like not in a sex way I wish I could be he....oh no"
I was thinking about how sometimes the most average people are the most attractive
I really wish I could explain it better, but there’s some sort of “sweet spot”
