I'm with Ballerina on this one the other day we where laying around on my boyfriend's bed watching a dvd and I turn round to kiss him and he said that m hair looked ruffled and like I been drag through a bush, so went to comb my fingers through it and he said no I like it

I disagree, yes there are times when you can't help looking like shit and the longer the relationship goes on u care less. BUT it is on my mind to always look my best, no matter what length of time ive been in a relationship, ive always put more effort into my looks than if i was single.

Former Member

Yeah i have to say i let myself go a bit when i'm single. When i'm with someone i have to be perfect or i get paranoid.

Hmm

Pro - Someone to take money off
Con - Having to see them all the time (i'm lazy, what can i say!)

Former Member

I am the other way. I have to keep myself looking good when I am single (otherwise who is gonna like you?!) and I normally let myself go (a bit) when I am in a relationship.

:yes: This is how I feel.

If I have a boyfriend, I make much more of an effort. I always want to look nice for them.

This doesn't mean to say I don't make an effort when I'm single, I just don't go out of my way to look nice.

i just think a boyfriend should love his girlfriend regardless, when she really lets herself go as in doesn't care about her appearance at all then it's a bit of a problem. But i don't see why you should always have to look nice for them, they should think you look nice anyway!

The stuff that usually gets left when I'm single is hair, I'm quite hairy when single lol

They probably do, but its a sign of respect and love to want to make an effort surely. I dont freak if my boyfriend sees me looking muntery first thing in the morning, but I would never let myself go, just because he wasnt bothered. Attracting someone isnt just about making first impressions before youve "got" them.
If i didnt give a shit whether he thought i was pretty or not, then id say i didnt care about the relationship anymore.

Pro - sharing experiences
Con - having to share the jaffa cakes
