Beauty is vain and will fade away. What would you have then? Inner substance run deep to the core. And last forever. I'll take inner substance. When she goes from size 8 to size 26. I will still have her. Because, she will still be the same as i met in the beginning.

^^ You better preach Cheese...Especially over 30, I haven't seen my Dang I look good pants in a minute but you know what, whatever the size, we just have to remember especially those in long committed relationships, that we have to continue to try and look appeasing for our mate. We lose focus after while thinking we don't have to do that stuff anymore, that's a lie.
I love the fact that my husband is just as fine on the outside as he is on the inside, and still continues to hold my hand while when we walk outside.....*smile*

All I need a sistah to do is be what she alwayz haz been....fine az wine! I don't need no intellect and all that. Last thing a man needs is a woman who wants to challange her man's authority.

Just keep it tight fo bigdaddy, do what you do best and we will be just fine.

take care of the inner self and the outer self will tell off.

The older I become, the more my vision fades. I've discovered that I rather be with a man that can treat me like I'm his queen, possesses the same morals as myself and is good to my children. The one physical attraction I can't seem to shake is height. I'm 5'6" and like wearing stilettos, so I like 'em tall.

I have to have someone I am attracted to but am willing to give someone with good character, spirituality, moral courage and good conversation a shot.

I have been into good lookin men all of my life. Now the not so good looking ones can do you just a bad as the good lookin ones, so you just need to find someone who is compatible and respectfull to you: Someone that shares most of your aspirations, knows how to compromise and loves you.

Also, someone you trust, because if you don't have trust in a relationship you don't have nothing.

I married a man that wasn't good looking but HAD a beautiful heart and was hard working. He, in my eyes, because the most handsome man in the world. That shifted as his being and Spirit shifted.

I have now been blessed with a man who is gorgeous and is a true Man of Yah! I actually ignored him when he approached me the first two times - thought he was a pretty boy and that he was just trying to add another notch to his belt. Come to find out I was given a man that I'm extremely attracted to Spiritually, Mentally and Physically.

Can't beat that...
