- I have absolutely no idea what you look like Aaron, but given the way you've
- been talking lately, I wouldn't go out wih you either. Physical attractiveness
- is a factor, but I know a lot of people the world wouldn't consider
- "attractive" who are a)happily married, b)engaged, or c)have very active
- social lives. As long as a person doesn't have a truely horrible B.O. [IMHO]
- a person's looks really have little to do with it. *Real*, long-term
- attractiveness is from the inside. A woman I've known since childhood is
- getting married in February - she's 80, and the groom is older. Do you think
- either of them look like Richard Gere or Cindy Crawford? Neither ever did
- to begin with, but they found something in each other that made both
- decide to tie the knot again. I have news for you, it's not his magnificent
- physique she fell for.:-)
