If said person was a good person and someone I could get along with, why wouldn't I?

I am married so I am not dating anyone but my husband. With that said, if I weren't married I would. I have a friend who has scars from burns on both arms. He is one the nicest guys you would ever want to meet.

I definitely would if he was a kind and fun person.

Yes and I agree with AA and BA ☺. Update: 12/30 after reading other comments.

I'm being realistic and I'm not a saint.

People with severe burns are humans, our family, our friends, fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters and us. WE LOVE THEM.

They're afraid to venture in the outside, most because of bad attitudes. I smile when I see brave ones out and about. It takes tremendous courage, to face those who would not date or interact with a severe burns.

Of course, if I liked her.

Physical appearance is among the least of attractions. What's inside defines who that person really is.

If there is no physical attraction at all, wouldn't it be unfair to both people to date? Something would always be missing in the relationship -

Why? Physical attraction isn't necessarily based on the way a person looks though, of course, that's a big factor. Pretty girls and good looking boys have a head start in getting to meet people, but if you share nothing more than that -- himbo meets bimbo -- it's not gonna last. (It might be fun for a while though.)

well, speaking as a guy - if I was not physically attracted to someone it would be hard to be intimate - even kissing would start to feel creepy.

Outward scars or inward scars wouldn't bother me so much if that person posessed personality traits that I can respect and enjoy. 

I would far prefer someone who is genuine, has integrity and scruples than someone who is physcially attractive but an absolute jerk.

No. I am repulsed by severe burns. I would try to treat such person with respect if we had interactions, but I would not date someone with severe burn scars.

Seeing a lot of la la land answers here. If this sentiment is so common why are severely burn scarred people not seen out and about with dates?

I believe that beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I know what I expect in a relationship: Love, fairness, kindness, patience and generosity. If I have that I would be grand. So if those things are present I won't even see the burns
