Would you continue dating someone if you discover that they are a "loser"?

If you have been dating someone for several months, and you find out that they are a "loser" from meeting their friends, would you continue dating them? For example, people don't respect this person as a role model. Instead, this person is the "crazy fun" one, who gets excessively drunk, says inappropriate things, etc. in social situations. This person does not have many close friends and keeps a lot of acquaintance-type friends to hang out with. However, if you bring up this issue, the person would be offended and think you are being judgmental.

Separate topics with commas, or by pressing return. Use the delete or backspace key to edit or remove existing topics.

You can leave an optional "tip" with Mahalo's virtual currency, Mahalo Dollars. If you are asking a difficult question that might require some research, or if you'd like a wide variety of feedback, a higher tip often leads to more answers to your question.

I would continue dating someone even if people are telling me that he is a "loser". I will give him the benefit of the doubt. And see for myself if what I am hearing are just gossips or if it is true.

If I found out that it is true, I would make him aware of this. Have a heart-to-heart talk with him and make him open up with me. If in spite of this he will think that I am judging him, then, I cannot do something to make him think otherwise. At least I have done my best to make him open up with me. Maybe it will take time for him to reflect on how he is acting and why or maybe he will remain as he is and think there's nothing wrong.

If the latter will happen then I will cut personal ties with him because I don't want to have a relationship with someone who thinks so poorly of himself and acts irresponsibly.

I think you would be the loser if you dumped someone based on their social status alone.

What other people consider me or others means nothing to me, my opinion is the one that matters. If I felt he was a loser yes, I would dump him because why would i date someone I don't like? If his friends think so, who cares? More importantly, what sort of friends are those?

I have friends? lol No, what my friends think is also irrelevant. I wouldn't call someone with potential a loser. :)

What if your friends think he's a loser? If you agreed that he was a loser but had potential, would you make the effort to try to convince them to improve?

I would still date her, even if others think she is a loser, and then also brand me a loser. As long I'm happy with her, I don't really care.

I would not continue dating someone if I thought they were a loser.

As far as how a person appears to be around their friends or what people might say about them goes, not everyone is exactly the way they appear to be or just the way friends describe them.

But, if the person I was dating appeared to be a loser and turned out to be exactly as much of a loser as everyone thought he/she was once I had gotten him/her alone, I'd probably stop dating him/her.

You can't expect someone to change just because you want them to, so as far as bringing up the issue goes, it's pretty much beside the point. Dumping someone because they're a loser may be judgmental, but it's a practical solution.

You have to make up your own mind about a person. Sure take advice of friends into account, but don't base a breakup on just what they say.
