Yes. I was crazy about a guy - let's name him Boyfriend 1. He liked me back, but I wanted commitment and marriage but he didn't seem to want to take it further. All the while there was a
second guy in the fringes - let's call him Boyfriend 2 who was nice enough but didn't really excite me or fill my thoughts. He was a good shoulder to cry on though. Boyfriend 1 and I finally broke up and Boyfriend 2 was there to clean up the mess and hold me together.
Eventually I started noticing what an amazing human being he was. Thoughtful, responsible, caring towards friends and family, clear about his goals and what he wanted from life, mature beyond his age and confident about himself. All in all, GREAT husband material! He had strength of character that was sadly lacking in Boyfriend 1 who was quite shallow, put himself first before anyone else and generally arranged things to his convenience. I realised then that a boyfriend who is exciting and attractive does not necessarily make a good husband. I thank God for making me see sense before it was too late.
Boyfriend 2 and I have been married 14 years now and we have two beautiful girls. He is an amazing husband and an even more responsible and dutiful father. He puts mine and the children’s comfort before everything else. We have a solid partnership and love and respect each other deeply.
So to answer your question - yes, it is indeed possible to fall in love with someone you initially did not find attractive. :-)
