In a world where dating preferences vary widely, one man’s steadfast standards have sparked both curiosity and debate.
Kevin, a 42-year-old single father from Scotland, has made it clear that he will not compromise when choosing a partner. Firmly rooted in his belief that physical appearance is the highest priority, Kevin’s approach to love has led him down a challenging path—one he fully embraces.
While some admire his confidence and determination, others question whether his strict criteria can leave him alone in his search for the “perfect match”.
A man refuses to date “unattractive women” and will not settle for less.
Single father Kevin believes that his reluctance to date women he finds unattractive may leave him forever alone. The 42-year-old Scottish engineer openly admits that his standards for love are very high and refuses to compromise. Insisting that he can only fall in love with someone who meets all of his expectations, Kevin vows to never settle down or “put down roots” unless the right person comes along.
Appearance is the highest priority for Kev. i
Kevin, who is based in Fife and goes by the TikTok handle @boerboelblade2, shared his thoughts with *The Sun* and stressed that physical appearance is a priority for him. “I’m not into unattractive women,” he declared, adding: “I’m not saying I’m Brad Pitt, but I know I can attract reasonably good-looking women.” Â
His ideal partner and strict criteria Â
Kevin imagines his ideal woman to be “long-haired and busty”, while not liking hairstyles like ponytails. He realizes that his selective preferences make it difficult for him to find. “It’s harder to find someone when you’re aiming for a high-end look,” he said. “There’s more competition because other men will be after them too. But I’m not willing to settle for second best. I know I could be alone for a long time, but I’m fine with that.”
Kevin’s relationship history Â
Kevin, who is currently in a relationship since 2023, shared that he was previously in an on-and-off relationship for three years. His last romance, which began in late 2022 with someone he met on TikTok, lasted only a month. Â
The challenges of modern dating
The influencer explained that since he doesn’t drink, he can’t meet women in traditional ways like pubs or bars. Dating apps haven’t helped him much either – many women don’t respond to him, and those who do often don’t meet his physical standards. Â
Refusal to settle down
Kevin remains steadfast in his decision not to pursue women he does not find attractive. “I’ve lowered my standards before and I didn’t enjoy it. I won’t do it again,” he declared. Although he hopes to one day find his perfect match, he is happy with his choice. “People ask why I’m single. I could have a girlfriend – I look good, I make good money. But a lot of men are single because they refuse to settle down. It’s a life decision.”Â
In a world where personal preferences and expectations in relationships vary greatly, Kevin’s story highlights the challenges of balancing high standards with the realities of modern dating.While physical attractiveness is undoubtedly an important factor for many, Kevin’s unwavering insistence on a particular look has narrowed his dating circle considerably. His decisions reflect a deep commitment to his ideals, even at the risk of long-term loneliness. This approach may resonate with some who prioritize their preferences, while others may find it restrictive or unrealistic.
Kevin’s experience also sheds light on the difficulties faced by individuals who do not engage in traditional social settings such as bars or pubs, or who struggle with the impersonal nature of dating apps. His frustration with modern dating is not unique, as many people struggle with unfulfilled expectations and the complexities of making real connections.
Despite these challenges, Kevin remains steadfast in his decision, preferring self-satisfaction to compromise. His story underscores the importance of knowing one’s desires and being willing to accept the consequences of pursuing them, whether it leads to love or lasting independence.
