ORIGINAL: takenbyjohnr07 who are looking for the perfectly petite (thin) woman or an adonis and will accept nothing less. Here is my sceerio for You. What if You went on line and there was no picture (pictures were not allowed). You saw a beautiful profile of a person who fit everything You are looking foe. You- E-mail each other and You click. You IM each other and You click. You talk on the phone and it's even better than You could imagine. You set up a meeting. In walks a woman or man who is not bad looking, but kind of plain and could stand to lose a few pounds. They are dressed nicely and have a wonderful warm smile. You get along wonderfully and it's just as great as it was on line. Do You continue with another meeting? Or do You decide to wait until someone better looking comes along? I'll echo charlottes comments (this is something she and I have discussed at length, actually.) I'd continue with this woman, and invest the time and effort to gradually mold her to better suit my taste. I can only assume that if 'all else is perfect' than she'd be as enthusiastic about self-improvement as I am. I would make it very clear that it wasn't because I didn't enjoy her for who she is; and that it would be a committment on both of our part, to make her into someone even more exceptional than she already was. I think that's a powerful dynamic for many relationships; that combined, we become much better people than we were to begin with. Thus, looks really just does deal with polishing the shell; literally improving her clothing, makeup, diet and exercise routine, and working to instill a much stronger degree of self-confidence. I want her to look in the mirror, and have her breath taken away at how beautiful she is, and can be. This doesn't mean making her into someone she is not; it means making her into the best person she can be. Stephan
