I don't see the problem with starting a relationship off on looks because how are you supposed to just -know- good qualities about someone you just met? Gotta start somewhere I say. If things don't develop deeper then there is a problem. My husband I started off just messing around and now he is my best friend. We started messing around because omg he was hot. lol He had little to do other than P90X and ran a few miles a day... I wasn't passing that up...
Yeah I've never heard of a girl get offended or feel objectified by receiving a genuine/polite "you're pretty" or "you have a nice smile", etc. I've heard girls say it may be a lame or cliche pick up line, but never offended.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
