Why cant pretty people get together ?

Why do people commit to less than beautiful? Isnt beauty the highest criteria for selecting a girl? Then why doesnt it prevail when you choose a girl? Why do so many mismatched pairs exits?

Girls seem to get it right. Wealth on an average tops a girl's priority list and hence not surprisingly, you dont find girls marrying guys who earn less than their expectation. Yes, they might not be as rich as an Ambani, but they earn reasonably well. Similarly, why dont good looking guys find reasonably good looking girls? Maybe not an Aishwarya Rai, but at least having some physical attractiveness. I know that marrying someone is not just about looks. You need to look at compatibility, a good sense of humour, a nice nature and what not. But do decent looks and these features never come together? I have friends who have chosen girls who clearly fall short of their own standards of beauty but top in their standards of behaviour. You cant but fail to notice their eager looks when they first show you their gf's pics. They hope that I will approve, that I will probably find something beautiful that they, by their own high standards, missed. Alas, I cant offer any consolation. The best I do is to side step the question about looks and head straight for the 'how good is her nature' zone. After all, what makes you think that my standards are low!

I agree you might commit to beautiful and no guy would like to commit to less than beautiful, but why would you want to think that wealth would top the list on an average for any girl? I believe girls would also like to commit to looks?

On another line, the fact that your friends happen to show you pics of not so beautiful girls(introducing them as 'my girl')maybe should lead you to question your very starting thought of looks being on the top of the priority list for guys also
