I completely agree with you. I looked for 'lookers' for far too long. I've decided that it's time to really scope these girls out a bit better before I go putting myself out there all over a pretty face. I hate myself for doing that, and found a great gal, even though we're just friends, that actually will help me do chores, work on the cars, etc. She's good looking, but many people would have an issue that she's a bigger gal. But you got to expect that from a gal that actually works her behind off on the farm, right?

Then I think of her at the same age. Can I possibly see us still interested in each other, having endearing conversations, holding hands on the porch swing?
To hell with beauty and sex and all that other fleeting stuff that is so common to those dwelling in their youthful indiscretions. What of the future? I want to be comfortable in love. I want to have that pitter-patter and warmth that comes from waking up every morning and falling head over heels for her all over again.
Beauty fades all too quickly. I'd much rather have a stimulating intellect and a caring heart to come home to.
Am I being too romantically mushy? Probably. And I realize its probably not realistic either. The woman I'm looking for (who's probably looking for me too!) is also someone I'm unlikely to meet.
