I've experienced this. I've honestly started feeling romantic attraction to people who weren't my "type" at all (say I would have never swiped yes if it was just online dating), but once I knew their personality their looks not only didn't bother me, but they actually looked beautiful to me. it's wild how that works!

unfortunately in the online dating times, the first impression is always visual and that's how people decide someone is "ugly" in their eyes without getting the chance of seeing the beauty in them after getting to know them.

This is how I don't understand online dating. I've never done it (not because I look down on it, it's just never been a part of my life). But first impressions feel like useless information to go on to me. Only good for massive red flags, but I'd hope to know a person enough to not even have to entertain a first date with a red flag if I've been able to observe their behaviour enough prior.
