Tara: In terms of brains, it goes without saying that ALL men married beneath themselves :-)

This question is beneath me.

Dear Mark,
Your question suggests an immature view of love and life. How would you feel if you were blinded by glaucoma or an accident and had to live out your life without ever seeing another face again? Would you see beauty the same way? All physical beauty fades. You will not look the same in 20 years, I guarantee it.
So many of us spend vast amounts of time and money on our physical appearance, but next to nothing on our character or our hearts. Why, because it's easy to look at the outside and conclude that a person is attractive or sexy or successful based on appearances, but appearances are decieving. Anyone who's bought a lemon in a used car lot can vouch for that.
What kind of character do you have? Are you honest, reliable, kind, hard-working, loving, empathetic, forgiving? These are the character traits of men of character. Do you have a heart that breaks when you see examples of man's unkindness to man? Do you try to helps widows and orphans? Do you give any thought to the suffering of others in this world?
Stop thinking only about yourself and start thinking about your spouse and your family. Start thinking about how you could use your gifts to help someone who is less well off than you.
Do these things and you will be the most attractive man in the world to the people who matter the most. People don't care about how good you look, they care about how much you care.
Best Wishes,
Docmase

Looks have nothing to do with women I associate with or marry. I am divorced and long over her. My wife was and still is a great l;ooking woman. The women I date are physically all different from one another. The friendship they bring to the table is far more important then looks. If I were to marry again looks are in the equation, but way down the line in importance.

Well anyone who thinks like that is shallow in my opinion,they didnt look any different when you married them,so why the fuss now.
We are all equals,no one is better or worse than us.
Its the person inside thats supposed to count,aswell as the love and trust you have for eachother,if you havnt got any of that,maybe thats why you're asking the question you are!

u marry because u love a person and whats inside them, because looks fade, and if u marry just on looks u will eventually be disappointed. anyone feeling they married beneath them judging it by looks alone are shortsighted, and are always going to seek out the beautiful and good looking people, and they will never look inside a person's heart.

Haha. I married beneath my intelligence level, but he was absolutly gorgeous. The marriage lasted six years. Looks don't mean squat when you can't carry on a meaningful conversation with the person.

no, but in terms of brains, I some times think my hubby married beneath himself.

Have been married for 23 years and he is still a hotty. When we go out the women still flock around him. It doesn't bother me in the least cause I know that at the end of the evening he's going home with me. Girls.....eat your heart out.

No way. Quite the contrary. I consider myself very lucky to have such a wonderful wife. She could have done better, but for some reason chose me. I try to make myself more worthy of her each and every day.

Beauty is only skin deep. Even so, over time people age and their appearance changes. Its whats inside that counts. My wife is butt ugly but she has a hart of gold. I would not want to be with anyone else. If you are having problems sexually, just turn the lights off.

sometimes I think my boyfriend is kind of chubbby, but then I look at everything else and know I would still marry him in a heartbeat. I'd be embarresed to ask your question frankly, it was your decision, unless its because of something mental or emotional, its really on you to stick to it, unless, he somehow "got" unattractive to you. In that case, you might want to examine those feelings too. looks don't last, love does.
good luck!
