| Is love really blind?[can you love the homely?]
Posted: 4/21/2006 4:20:19 PM | | There are so many traits in a person's appearance that aren't about perfect features - if someone has kind eyes or a funny smile. Sometimes little faults can be really sexy. And the more you get to know someone and love him, the more he becomes beautiful to you. | |

Posted: 4/21/2006 4:31:25 PM | | I have met many beautiful men with chiseled abs and a flashing white smile, and then they talk and the most terrible remarks come out of their mouth. Their beauty is gone, almots instantly and they become ugly in my eyes. A person who is genuinely a beautiful person, not judgmental or ashamed of what they have to say and who they are in someone that i want to spend the rest of my life with, regardless of anything else. Someone who flaunts their beauty isn't really beautiful becuase they are looking for someone to make them feel they are worthy. Someone who wakes up every morning and loves life for what it has to offer is someone who truley knows what beauty is. Enough said, sometimes reading these posts makes me very sad indeed. | |

Posted: 4/22/2006 11:45:11 AM | Speaking from experience, I can honestly say looks don't matter (at least to me). My husband was short, fat, bald, wore glasses - the whole package. However, he was the most wonderful person I have met so far in my life and was the biggest influence on me. Yes, I would consider a homely man - and not think twice about it.
As for the subject of inches - I went with someone who was "small" and someone who was considered "big". I have news for you - it aint the size it is the knowledge. The "big" guy was a big nothing, and the "small" guy was like the Energizer Bunny and really knew how to work with what he had. | |

If your disposition is that of someone who is bitter or vindictive or controlling or manipulative then while you may be physically good looking there are things which you choose to be that are ugly and that ugliness eventually comes through and taints all that you touch.
You don't have to be the most beautiful woman or the most handsome man around to have someone love you or to love someone else.

Posted: 4/22/2006 1:11:55 PM | Apparently, at least according to previous posts, I'm hideously ugly because I think personality is important. No matter how good you look on the outside, if you're an a**hole then you're not going to be attractive to me. My last boyfriend was anything but typically attractive and I thought he was the greatest thing since sliced bread! So yeah, love can be blind, but who cares? It's not affecting you.
P.S. I like my men 5-7 inches, 'cause I'm not that deep and have an averted uterus (I think that's how you say it) and anything bigger than that hurts. So there is someone out there for you just keep looking. :) Remember the good apples are at the top! | |

Posted: 4/22/2006 3:13:21 PM | I have found in my lifetime that this holds true. Many of you can probably relate to it.
I met a guy that I didn't find the least bit attractive. He was just plain, average, run of the mill. We started a friendship and the more I got to know him the more attractive he become. I started to think of him as a very good looking guy.
So it does happen. Thats why its a shame many people pass up the opportunity to give us normal looking people the time of day. You may find out that they are the most beautiful person you have ever had the pleasure of knowing.

Posted: 5/12/2006 5:54:45 AM | Women SAY that personality is important so as not to appear as shallow as the men.
But women are the first to insult a guys appearance if they want to offend him
And, if you want to insult a woman the best way isn't to call her useless, or stupid, but to call her ugly. | |

That being said a man who takes care of himself (good hygene, healthy lifestyle, etc.) sounds like the perfect man for me. So long as you are taking care of the packaging then the rest really doesn't matter. It's what's in his soul that will keep me there.

Posted: 5/13/2006 8:55:43 AM | | Personality IS important, but so are looks. You cant be with someone you aren't attracted to but you cant be with someone who makes you sick just by talking either. You can be totally drop dead gorgeous and then open your mouth and you just got ugly. Its the way it is. | |

Posted: 6/1/2006 10:35:59 AM | | Personality is VERY important. It's been said before and cannot be said enough, a person can be stop you dead in tracks gorgeous, but that doesn't guarantee that the person is worth knowing. The man that lives most in my heart's memory as a really wonderful man (there is no way around it) was homely. BUT he was so sweet, so fun, so thoughtful - and boy could he kiss... A real woman knows it's what's in the package, not how the package looks, that is important. | |
