Not trying to be negative, but I am really quite fat, brown hair, brown eyes (although am still tallish...). Don't see the match. <br />I see the match a lot more in best friends though. For example, a lot of people have seen photos of us and asked if we were brother and sister.

Ie - some gorgeous women have low self-esteem and maybe that is why they end up with an ugly bloke (they probably don't consciously do it) my theory... great to discover your blog!!!Sharnaniganshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11276480245747743458noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8774807226689612975.post-33497383728858602042009-10-19T14:01:58.431+11:002009-10-19T14:01:58.431+11:00We studied this phenomenon in psychology at uni.

I remember Psych studies 'proving' that people are attracted to others with a similar level of attractiveness (this was a loooong time ago, so, not sure how credible). I'm pale with strawberry blonde hair and have always gone for darker guys so that I could breed out the red (no, seriously, red heads are no turn on for me)! No one else in my family has my colouring. However, my husband (Italian - gorgeous) has a thing for actress Monica Belluci (dark hair, big ruby lips like his etc...) and I just call him narcisistic - hoping to shame him out of his pale girl aversion. So, he really isn't (only) attracted to me for my looks - should be reassuring huh!?!?!?Dulcienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8774807226689612975.post-26573198737319406802009-10-17T09:42:09.654+11:002009-10-17T09:42:09.654+11:00I fell in love with my husband cos he was hot...do...I fell in love with my husband cos he was hot...does that make me hot too?

My husband is similar in stature and build to my brother and my dad. When people don't know him they comment how much like my side of the family the kids are, when they meet him though it is clear they are all the image of their dad. Wierd and a little icky. One of my husbands friends once said to him at a party (in front of me) Oh you've married up! Then looked me up and down and added, not by much, but definitely up.

And at my engagement party in Perth (where my parents are) all my parents' friends laughed at how much husband looks like my dad. And I look like my dad....you get the picture. Gosh it sounds weird to verbalise this.<br />Anyway husband and I have often discussed our similar levels of attractiveness (or lack there of?!). He used to insist my number was higher....but I think that wad part of his approach to courting. Now he likes to compare us feature by feature as we compose a pretend perfect child who gets the best of both of us. And yes, there are features that we both think our own is the better option. But I always win on hair.....by default.<br />Now that i have exposed our sick litle marriage secrets....farewell!Plaurennoreply@blogger.com
