How do I lower my dating standards and find unattractive women attractive?
I am def a complete virgin and ugly guy in America. While I am interested in dating, one of many reasons I don't date is that I currently find very few women attractive. Like even 1 physical flaw causes me to lose interest. I am only attracted to the fit, slim. and pretty much perfect women like SI and other literal models, actresses, and more. Of course, these women pretty much don't exist in my neighborhood and city.
The strange part is, as recent as 5 years ago, I had the reverse problem where I had low dating standards.
I think the problem was around 4 years ago when my great health collapsed and I ended up being stuck at home and spending so much time on Instagram and saw so many beautiful women from there and adapted my preferences to all the plastic surgery, filters, and other fake things ffs. I am all good again and working to better myself (exercise, work, socialize), but I wish I knew how to stop finding almost all women unattractive.
Any help is great.
