Maybe it’s because I live too close to that shallow cesspool of humanity called Los Angeles, but I have trouble envisioning any man I know taking this advice. In my experience, men must be physically attracted to women they fall in love with. Men are drawn to different physical attributes, so it doesn’t mean they won’t fall for someone that other people don’t find attractive, but in my experience a man must be physically attracted to a woman in order to fall in love with her. Strangely enough though he does not have to be physically attracted to her in order to have sex with her, that’s another one of those unique quirks about men…
However, I agree with your main point and the man I chose to marry was quite conventionally unattractive when I married him. Unfortunately as the years have gone on his confidence and workout regimen have made me have an extremely attractive husband. I say unfortunately because now all sorts of young attractive women are showing him interest that he isn’t used to handling. frankly it’s a stress on our marriage.
