Dating with braces?


Recommended Posts

How do men/women feel about dating someone with braces as an adult? 

If you have braces, would you put off dating altogether until your braces came off?

If was dating, braces wouldn't bother me in the slightest.     If the person getting the braces is concerned about the look, there are some very discreet ones available these days

My partner had braces as an adult when we first started dating. To me it was a complete non issue, but it may be because I had braces as a teenager and know what they're like.

On that note I feel the vast majority of people aren't going to care, since a lot of people either had braces as a teenager or dated someone who did.

I've dated people with braces and had braces, granted when much, much younger, but age doesn't make it any different and braces now are much less obtrusive.  So not big deal.

I wouldn't wait to date, and in fact did not.  I got braces in my early 40s, then got back into the dating world after my ex cheated.  I had dozens of dates, of which quite a few became relationships of various lengths.  The braces were never an issue.

If anything, the brace-less person should get matching braces and whenever the two kiss, they can lock braces and the kiss will last way longer. 
 

Sorry. Couldn’t help it.

It's self-improvement, so it' s a positive.

If two people with braces kiss, they might get stuck together, lol

Thanks for the feedback everyone, it's nice to read different perspectives.  I'm not sure it's possible for braces to actually get locked when kissing but that would be comical.
