What about the men of any kind of look or finances who are kind, caring, loving and supportive partners with high EQs? That is what I want/have. |
+2 Uggos who think they are hot - then the men think oh shit....... |
+1 Yeah but outsiders claim otherwise. LOL. |

I know a couple (relatives) who were pretty shallow about liking each other for their looks and materialistic as well. They both grew into the opposite of that over their very long marriage. I found it fascinating though sometimes it was like talking to college sophomores who have just realized the wider world, rather than 50 year olds.
The other person I knew who was like this has been married and divorced three times. I definitely think she picked people for the wrong reasons but they were all good looking and so was she. I know her mother emphasized the importance of being good looking and dating good looking people over everything elseI don’t think any of her marriages were happy but I think she has other personality problems too. |
| Honestly I don't know any women who chose looks over personality and other qualities. I think men are guiltier of this more often than women are. Women are looking for future fathers to their children. |
| I’m a beauty (all men on OLD tell that after date 1 and nearly everyone wants date 2). After divorce to an ugly rich man who cheated on me profoundly I only date hot men. In a relationship now with super hot man who is crazy about me. He is gainfully employed and only 5 years older than me. My ugly exH was 16 years older and I thought I chose personality. I was very wrong ! |
| Nope, all women I know who married for looks are now divorced. If you are married to a super good looking man, it's harder to keep them around. And, you might be ignoring what you don't have in common. |

I hit on him at a bar because he was hot, married him because it turned out I also really liked him as a person and because we are compatible and have similar life goals.
I know people who pretty much only dated hot people but they only married the one they loved and were compatible with and it’s worked out so far. I don’t know anyone who married for looks alone. |
No. We know a ton of high school sweethearts who married their good looking professional sports player boyfriends, not husbands. They prioritized the total package - nice, smart, respectful, hard worker, talented, athletic, and good looking. |
+1. You MUST be attracted to them. You can only fake it for a few years. |
Lol you thought you chose personality? More likely $$$$

He had a professional job and was very driven but not wealthy when we met . We built wealth working together but it changed him for worse - he completely went off rails in his 50s. Im happier divorced - have a wonderful younger and hot partner now. He’s not as wealthy as my ex but he is firmly on his feet and I’m totally happy |
Ok. Well, by all means you seem to have it figured out now ... so. |
If you want to be happy for the rest of your life never make a pretty man your wife. |
The 16 years part sticks out as the obvious problem. |
