Have you ever dated somebody "not your type" or completely different?

I know exactly how you feel. No need to feel shallow! I've dated/liked plenty of guys who weren't my "type". But come to find out, I don't have a specific type. If I think a guy is cute, treats me nicely, and has a fantastic personality, I don't care what he wears or what he's into. Opposites can always be exciting and you can become interested in things that you didn't even think would interest you. I'd say go with your gut. Good luck!
