Would you consider going out with someone who was quite a tad bitterer than you are?

You're single, you meet someone who has a lovely face and a great body, but he/she is considerably more unhappy and angry than you are. Would this be a dealbreaker? Be honest now!

Bitterer? Than me? Ha!

dealbreaker unless the deal is let's have sex and never speak to one another.

Anyone bitterer than me is probably dead. And I'm not into necrophilia, so no.

I would go out with them, but only because I'm bitter about being single.

If she's truly bitter I doubt she'd "go out" with you. xpost

I retract my first response on this thread.

the answer is to go for it.

bitter is only a dealbreaker when it moves into daytime date status.
Till then: game on.

People with unbearably sunny dispositions are much worse than those who are bitter.

too much of either is a bad thing. but the right amount of both is just perfect!

i envy people with (not unbearably) sunny dispositions. one of my ongoing resolutions is to be sunnier!

Far from being a dealbreaker, it would be an incentive, provided it were matched with rougueish good looks.

No.

i'd consider it sure.

was another visitor trying to submit an okcupid question?

― ken c (ken c), Monday, 5 December 2005 12:08 (twenty years ago)

"quite a tad" is an odd phrasing.

― Gravel Puzzleworth (Gregory Henry), Monday, 5 December 2005 12:09 (twenty years ago)

if she was bitter it shows she's got feelings, so i'd give it a go. if it didn't work so what, no one dies.

I wonder what the answer is to "if you're not sure whether to go out with someone, should you go out with them"? This seems the basis to loads of these questions. (I sorta think the answer is no but I'm persuadable, on this)

― Gravel Puzzleworth (Gregory Henry), Monday, 5 December 2005 12:16 (twenty years ago)

"if you're not sure whether to go out with someone, should you go out with them"?

the answer = depends whether they're hotttttttttttt?

this question is "would you consider going out" though, i mean, by thinking about this question alone, you're considering it, by considering whether or not to consider, even if the answer is no, you would have done the deed of making some considerations at some point in your life to say no to anybody who is "a tad bitterer" than you.

Also, some consideration must certainly have been spent to in considering whether this person was 'quite a tad bitterer', or merely 'a little bitterer' as part of the general whether-to-go-out-with assessment. so no matter how you look at this the answer to the question will be 'yes', and thus the question is void.

― ken c (ken c), Monday, 5 December 2005 13:16 (twenty years ago)

As long as they were bitter with style.

I'd be wary of going out with them with the intention of changing them or trying to make them happy.

mrs fiendish took the plunge. but you'd have to ask her, really :)

― grimly fiendish (grimlord), Monday, 5 December 2005 13:43 (twenty years ago)

Yes, of course I'd consider it. I mean, of course not anymore as I'm married, but I would never just base my decision on one factor.
