So, yeah.. I recently started talking to a guy at work. He's a 10 outta 10 from what we know about each other. He's 31, his face features are nice, body complexity is okay (he slouches though), but he's got extremely bad acne scars all over his face. We're not that close to even talk about it.

When I was 27 I treated my acne and since that my self confidence boosted. And whenever I look at him (I'm sure he's got money for skin treatment) I always wonder to myself "why haven't you treat it yet.. you'd stop being single immediately..".

I feel pretty down because I'd be happy to give this a chance but I can't go towards myself cause I can't even look straight into his face for more that 2 seconds. I used to have a pattern of choosing a wrong guy who didn't treat me well, now I'm in therapy for many years and it does wonders. Although I cannot understand one thing: am I being too picky? He treated me well on our first couple of dates. I didn't give him any hints that i'd like to become a bit romantic with him. No holding hands, no straight flirt, we had a lot of fun. Then at the end of the second date he tried to kiss me and… Well… I didn't feel disgusted at first, I was more shocked that anything. I pictured that as a friend date, we just get to know each other, see where it goes… but later I pictured that his face was next to mine, not face, but that skin on it….. and I didn't want it…

So…. did my body give me an answer already? Or should I keep looking at where this might go?
