True love is not that easy to find and sometimes due to some reasons you may have to date someone truly loves you but you just yet to fall for him or her. This doesn't mean you can't enjoy yourself and build a sweet relationship together. Let's get closer to this situation of "dating someone you don't like" and get everything explained.Duke

Reasons to Date Someone You Don’t Like

1

You feel bored

You don’t have activities to do for the day so you go out with the person. He is harmless anyway.

2

He's not a bad choice

He may not be the best, but he is not the worst either.

3

You’re afraid of your high standards

You finally figure out that you have high standards and you know that those kinds of men are hard to find, so you just settle with who is with you right now.

4

You just want a companion

You are not looking for that “jaw-dropping guy”, you just want to chill out with someone who is just nearby so you won’t have to exert much effort. You feel lazy so you don’t mind dating someone you don’t like.

5

He is nice

You totally don’t like him and you even feel irritated with his presence. You don’t like his perfume and you find his clothes awkward and his nails dirty, but he's never mean to you, instead he treats you like the most important person in the world.

6

He is hot

He may not be as smart as the other guys out there, but you check him out and find he's sexy on those pair of trousers.

7

He is good for you “now”

You know you don’t want to spend the rest of your life with this guy but you don’t mind dating him because he is really beneficial in your life right now.

8

You feel lonely

You feel depressed and you just want someone to be there for you. You know deep down that you should not be dating right now but you don’t care because you feel like your life is a mess right now anyway.

9

He is your “outlet”

You feel so stressed at work, in school or even at home, dating him makes you feel more relaxed and he is a good distraction for you to get a breath from all your troubles.

10

He will be your laughing stock one day

You know that someday you will find the idea of dating him funny so you settle with him for now.

11

He is your rebound

You had a bad breakup and forgetting those good old memories is just so hard, so you start dating someone you don’t like in order to divert your attention hoping that you will soon forget about your ex.

Enjoy a Sweet Relationship with Someone You Don’t Like Initially

1

Don’t judge too quickly

Ever heard of the saying “Don’t judge the book by its cover”? Instead of backing off because you initially found the person unattractive, give yourself a chance to get to know the person better. Dating a person you don’t like will not only give you the opportunity to meet the man of your dreams but it may also lead you to your “best friend forever”.

2

Celebrate things you have in common

You will truly enjoy his company if you share the same interests, beliefs and even values. Do things you both like to do or talk about the beliefs and values you truly believe in. 

3

Focus on how they make you feel

Remember when your ex made you feel like the worst person in the world? Focus on how this new person you don’t like now makes you feel. Set aside your feelings about this person for a while and find out if he makes you feel wonderful about yourself.

4

Think about your future

Can you imagine yourself spending the rest of your life with this person? Forget about attraction, because attraction is just a feeling that come and go. Dating someone you don’t like can be fun, and that is what’s important in a relationship - having fun whenever you are with that person.

5

Be true to yourself

List down the negative traits of the person and check if these traits can be improved and corrected. Fashion sense and hygiene can always be learned and improved, but if most of his negative traits are about his attitude and values, you might not want to build a relationship with him.

6

Be spontaneous and flexible

You might have your own insecurities that is why the qualities you are looking for in a person are very hard to live up to. And when you do this, you are only risking yourself to disappointments. So, always remember that not everyone you meet will have all the traits you want, but they have good qualities that will surely make you happy in the long run. This is one great reason why dating someone you don’t like isn’t a bad idea.

7

Don’t be too critical

Instead of paying so much attention on the person’s flaws, look at the person’s positive side. By doing so, it will be easier for you to find his charm. This will also train your brain to focuse on what’s good instead of what’s bad. And he may not be the “boy next door guy”, but his wit, sense of humor, intelligence and chivalry can make you fall deeply in love with him.
