Caring or handsome depend on the purpose for which the man is evaluated.

There are occasions of physical close contact where handsome is the primary factor,  and he does not even need to be "hard", in my case.

For lasting life sharing or just friendship, caring takes precedence, of course.

For me, the physical part should spark some chemistry. When he is caring, the chemical reaction will kaboom - gives deeper meaning, more joy. And it's worth it.

And handsome and caring can swap places.  Usually the handsome is the attraction, and the caring becomes the catalyst that causes the relationship reaction.

 

But in some cases the good heart and caring of a person is irresistible, and leads to the acceptance of his physical body.  Same reaction,  the difference is in which ingredient is in the pot first before the second is added.

Guest Good Luck!!

A caring man can mean many things.   He cares about you going out and returning late a late.  He cares about you eating unhealthily.  He cares about you not exercising more.  He cares about you not buying branded stuff.  He cares about how you look.  He cares about you spending too much on yourself....he simply cares a lot including how you sleep, eat and shit.

 

A very "CARING" man indeed.

Caring does not have to be controlling, domineering.

 

Caring is having a concern for the partner's well being. It is the wish for him to be happy,  even when this means for him to have some freedom.   Open relationships, for example, work well when there is mutual caring.  And this can even function when there is not much mutual attraction.  In a way,  caring is a manifestation of love.

I agree.

In my lifetime, I met quite a lot of handsome jerks, both gay and straight.

 

As others have said - not handsome is okay, as long as the person is generally well-groomed and hygienic.

 

Sometimes, when your bf is very handsome, it can get stressful, because you may feel insecure about your own looks compared to him; or you worry that he will fool around since he knows he is hot; and you always worry about other guys trying to hit on him.

Handsome … if you can match up to this handsome then good… if not you’ll likely be insecure always… unless you have trucks of money that keeps him glued to you . Like those couples you see who are one hot one not .

So much about the other!  How about some introspection?   Am I caring?  Am I handsome?  Believe it or not,  if the answers are not straight "yes", changes are possible with some dedication.

Finding your kind of man in the gay community is difficult because most of them are quite dramatic, if not freaky (Side note) .  I've looked everywhere, but I haven't been able to locate the right specimen..

 

Side Note

 

In the stadium, I witnessed an old gay man sprinting in just his underwear.  In the vicinity, a team of Gukhas was preparing for their 24km run around the stadium.  It was clear that the older gay man was trying to draw attention to himself, which made the nearby trainers uncomfortable.    Please treat others and yourself with respect if you happen to be a member in this forum. 

 

Now back to the topic.

 

So far, the caring men I encountered to date are the straight ones.   The reason is straightforward: straight people do not perceive homosexual people as a threat since, to them, we are not their love rivals in a relationship world, unlike gay people who see another gay people as their rivals for other men and thus tried to all means and efforts to make themselves stand out dramatically.

 

Conclusion

 

You are asking too much of the small gay community if you are still searching and hoping to find those elusive "caring handsome ones."   Perhaps, that caring person has always been standing in front of your mirror already.  Don't you think self-caring is more important?

I think first impression still counts. No matter what, the gay community is superficial to some extend.

 

Most people will only want to date/befriend guys that are pleasant to their eyes. Then from there evaluate the caring part. If caring, can develop further, if not caring, just be friends/fwb have ons.

I feel like both are important leh... Should be good-looking (not asking for a lot, just as long as it's to my taste) and also caring at the same time. Definitely, 缺一不可, both characteristics are important. Maybe I'm too demanding lolz... 

 

Perhaps demanding but not entirely in a negative way. Too much handsome breeds insecurity, too much care and concern also creates an unhealthy dynamic in a relationship.

 

There's this balance you'll need to strike, and that's one hella tough thing to do.

For me, a caring man is one who respects your decisions and is aware of the consequences of his own choices too, but in order for this to happen, you yourself must also take the time to communicate your own thoughts to him.

 

Men who pamper you and treat you like a princess are caring, but it's not the only way that they can show their care to their partners. You're more likely expecting too much out of a man if you want someone who will worship you.

 

I've never dated before, much less been in a relationship, but hypothetically if I were to be in one, I'd be lucky enough to date a caring man already. No matter how good you look, your heart should take precedence.

Caring is not a fixed magnitude.  If you date a man that is not too caring,  this can change with time if he develops some feelings for you,  leading to true love.  And it depends also in how much you care for him.  Relationships are difficult to predict, and it may be wise to give them some "trial" time,  not too short, not too long.

I think you are on the right track.  In a relationship, caring is fundamental.  But it needs to be MUTUAL caring.  Unless you aim for older men who mostly worship your attraction, "worshipping" should be out of the question since this does not make sense between equals.  But there can be some attribute of him that makes him worth of worship, like something valuable physically or intellectually,  and then you hopefully get worshipped by him through your care and love.  Or vice versa.
