Plz Help Me In Making Decision
Posted: 03-23-06 22:00pm

Hi,
I am a 24 yr old person from india. As many know arranged marriage is common here. But talking before marriage is also allowed. I have talked to a girl. She is very nice person. Has very good qualties. I know 100% she can be a good friend. I can see she is very much beautiful inside. But some how outerlooks are not attracting me. But I know outer look is going fade. My question is, is it must that outer look should attract each other for good marriage relation ship? I ma confused. I could not say no...But at the same time I could not say yes for her. Any thoughts?

I married a man that I love deeply that I thought didn't look good to me after getting to know him, great person to be around make you laugh just cares in a genuine way. I think he looks sexy and good looking now!! Lol I think you should go with what makes you happy and looks shouldn't matter if you love the person, or like the person. Maybe things can grow to be something stronger.

Alright ... Let's say you had a very pretty woman (on the outside), who was very ugly on the inside (bad qualities, rude, no morals/values, etc.)that ugliness will start to seep out and, although she may be beautiful on the outside, you'll feel very disgusted to even look at her because she's so ugly on the inside.

Now, take a woman who's not that attractive on the outside but is so beautiful on the inside that she makes you want to be a better person. That beauty will seep (the same as the ugliness) to the outside and you won't see the unattractiveness that you first saw.

I believe that inner beauty is more important than outer beauty. But, it's just my opinion. A lot of people want or need to have their mate look great on the outside. I've been asked on several occassions, "what were you thinking?" with some of my past boyfriends because they were so unattractive ... And my answer is always the same. They had a great personality, they were fun to hang around ... I wasn't looking for the way they looked on the outside. I was looking for the way they looked on the inside. How they made me feel and how they treated me. (even though every single one turned out to be a jerk later on in the relationship, lol.)

so, to answer your question ... No, I don't think your mate has to look good on the outside in order for you guys to have a wonderful marriage. It's how you guys make each other feel when you're around each other. Beauty on the inside out-weighs beauty on the outside in my book. Good luck! :-)

Thanks for the suggestions. I had similar opinion. Just wanted to confirm it. It was very nice to hear to know opinions from other women.

My Mom's Opinion
Posted: 04-22-06 00:11am

Thanks for all suggestions. I just have one more question. My mom is having this opinion of outerlooks more important. I tried to convince her. But I could not. Is it all moms think so? Are they right in their own sense?
