Let’s take a look at relationships. When people ask you what type of girl or guy you would like to be with, it is always a list of sky high expectations. He should have great lips, he should have a nice body, she should be beautiful, she should have a booty. My question is: are you dating them for their looks or for their character. Will their booty console you when you are going through a rough patch? Will their nice body have long conversations with you when you are 51? Looks fade. We seem to forget that.
I watched a tv series of a man who considered himself as average. He fell in love with a beautiful woman who lived across from his apartment. They became friends on a social network and they chatted for months. Feelings started to grow as their conversations became longer and more frequent. It got to a point where they virtually connected every day. They loved each other – from a distance. They never met, though. He told her he lived in another country. Because the man thought he was not perfect enough for her – that he didn’t look good enough for her. So he spent thousands of dollars on plastic surgery. After many failed attempts and countless operations, he felt like he had the face that would complement the woman of his dreams. That he was finally perfect for her. He was ready for them to meet. He believed he would not turn him down because he was beautiful, as she was.
Finally they agreed to meet at her apartment. He dressed up and was very impressed with his new face. She opened the door and he looked at her – “I can’t believe I am finally meeting you – you are beautiful.”
She stared at him. “You are beautiful too, just like the feelings and emotions you shared with as we spoke every day.” Tears rolled down her eyes. “I kept something from you”, she told him.
“What, you can tell me anything”, he said.
“I am blind.”
