The Price of Beauty

This morning I was speaking to a rather attractive woman I know who has a problem-men 'fall in love' with her all the time. Now, I am not one of them. I am in fact quite happily married myself. However, it did get me thinking.

I have known quite a few women who I think would be happier if they were not quite so attractive. Attractiveness makes meeting a prospective partner easier, but it seems harder to know if your partner likes you for you or as a status symbol.

I guess I'm lucky to be utterly average.
