    Physical Compatibility—How Important?

    Physical Compatibility—How Important?

    She is a stunning 5’8 blonde hair, blue-eyed young woman. The
    young man is handsome, 6’3 dark-haired, brown-eyed. They
    have much in common; however, his complaint is that he is
    not physically attracted to her. His ideal is a lovely dark-haired
    woman with brown eyes.

    Can They Be Happy?

    Although, they share the same values, political views and
    religious beliefs, he is troubled by the fact that he catches
    himself gazing at the brunettes when he is with her or without
    her. “I really like *Lori and we are a good fit, but I can’t take
    my eyes off of the brunettes.”

    Discuss …

    *Lori is not her real name.

    Why are your posts being written in that format? Are you writing a book, or something? Because if you are, I want my share of the $$.
    Relax... I'll need some information first. Just the basic facts - can you show me where it hurts?

    I write in that format because I am comfortable
    with it and in addition, it makes it easier on the
    reader and is more pleasing to the eye.

    What's with the hypothetical scenarios, then?

    It isn't the format, Wanderer, it's the questions.

    Anyway, I believe physical compatibility isn't nearly as important as the rest. Looks are temporary and even if they weren't you'd get tired of them after a while. If you want a relationship to last you've got to find someone you can live with.

    Plus it's a damn shame so many people have narrowly defined requirements. Admittedly I have a special place for dark hair and dark skin, but I love women of all kinds.

    The scenarios are real, however, for the sake of protecting
    individuals and making small changes that do not affect the
    content I find it better.

    In addition, it let's individuals escape embarrassment, ridicule
    and humiliation.

    As opposed to us merely assuming that one of the individuals is you, and that you're being pathetic in your attempt to avoid embarrassment, ridicule, and humiliation by attempting some sort of faux mysteriousness?

    Well, if that's the case, and if you're a young guy as I'm assuming, I think you should pursue the brunettes.

    You have plenty of time to find a woman to marry. Focus on finding chicks to have fun with. Relationships are finite and mostly fun if you don't take them too seriously.

    ok put it this way.

    so u can keep banging that brunette but that's the only time you'll enjoy your relationship.

    do u consider that compatible enough.
    Live the moment.

    My husband isn't my type. Not at all. I wouldn't trade him, though. Not for anyone.
