Thread: 'хотя и не привлекающий к себе персонаж'

This is not about appearance as in good looking. If it was the case, привлекательный would have been used. The structure in question means "a character not possessing any qualities that would make one take an intrest in them", one without any spice, not complelling if you will Also it in no way means "unattractive", just awully ordinary in all aspects.

Ah, that makes sense, especially when you mentioned 'привлекательный'. So 'себе' in this case means 'anyone', and 'персонаж' means the personality of the subject of the sentence, is that correct? Sometimes I just find sentences difficult to parse...
