“NTA Everything you said makes sense. I’ll pick the guy with obviously good hygiene any day. He sounds like he could easily be attractive but doesn’t think he should have to put work into it. Everyone has to put work into it. I have a friend with a s**t personality and she says the same. She shouldn’t have to help people like her, they just should. That is imo unrealistic.” ?♂️
