I really find adorable women to be more attractive than beautiful women
That doesn't sound any different. What made you take that preference?
I notice that terrible things happen to people who aren't extremely beautiful
It is fine to have preferences. But you should keep them to yourself unless you are in a very casual setting.
I would love it if she found out that way because I don't want to hurt her
Yeah, it's really best to wait until you are close enough to tell her how you feel. Doing it right away might show you are too pushy, so keep steady and you'll make it!
