My best friend asked a girl out because she looked exactly like his first girl. I find this reason for asking a girl out stupid. I dont understand the logic he gave me and i told him this way you would never forget her if you keep looking for her. Was he right and me wrong in my thinking.

You are right to think this. It's also not giving the other girl a chance comparing her to another girl. She needs to be asked out because of her and who she is not who she reminds someone of.

Thats what i thought of and also i know my friend , he is never with any girl more than few weeks so this looked ridiculous that he thinks about his first one.

He's not being fair to this girl, expecting her to be the first one. Let her be who she is and like her for her not who she reminds him of. In the light of this new information...he doesn't stay with anyone....then he doesn't care about the new girl. He cares about his first girl and is comparing all other girls to her. This will never work!

Well,naturally we search for our lost love in all the girls.And your friend shall not be blamed as he was carried away by the looks.I can understand his love for her first one.No doubt,he will search for his first love's qualities in any girl.May be he is trying to heal his heart of the failure with the first one.Let him gain her in this form.Cheers!

thanks Ganesh for the response. I do have my doubts when looks take preference in any relationship and if she looks like his first gf then things can be real complicated and she would soon be ex as i think.

I think is is very unfair to the new girl because she is a person with feelings and the person going out with her should want her, not somebody from the past.

Hi, agrim94! Well, I think that he should not go out with a girl because she looks so much like his old girlfriend. He should go out with her because he has an attraction for her and that he wants to be with her. Yes, if he keeps going out trying to find someone that will look like her, he will never be able to forget his old girlfriend. This girl that your friend used to date must be some kind of hottie?

I have to agree with you; if that is the only reason he is asking her out it is a silly one! He may miss out on someone who would be really good for him because she doesn't happen to look like his ex girlfriend. It is a shallow reason for choosing a girl. I also have to agree that if he keeps focusing on his old girlfriend he will never get over her properly and as I said who knows who he may miss out on!

Definitely it is not fair to her as well as it is not fair for him too... it is definitely very shallow reason to go out with a girl and it would lead to further heart breaks for both of them

Well, if your friend would really think about his ex whenever he's with the other girl, then that would be unfair for the girl. But if your friend would just look at the attitude of the girl then maybe he would fall for the girl not just because she looks like his ex, but because "he really likes her". Coz we'll never know, there's just a certain pattern wherein your friend is attracted to.

I dont think my friend is emotional at all where the girls are concerned and he changes girls like clothes and thats y i was so surprised by his words that this girl looks like his first girl friend. i dont know what he wanted to tell me or if he is sure of his feelings if he wants her for longer time or if she is timepass.. i am totally confused.
