O N E]
i used to carry this almost "holier than thou"
attitude when it came to the topic of shallowness. i used to believe that i was one of the few people in the world that could truly say that i was not not shallow AT ALL (my previous significant others weren't exactly lookers, though they had other charming qualities), but honestly
everyone is shallow to a certain extent.
i began thinking about this more when i was forced to defend my position by a fellow ph member. I’ve discerned that there are varying degrees of shallowness. some of which are acceptable and perfectly appropriate such as being attracted to a pair of beautiful eyes or a charming smile
, but others are just completely out of control such as men who
only
date stick think models, with fake double d’s, and fake and bake tans, or woman that
only
date athletic men with body builder physiques.
to exemplify my theory of typical and acceptable shallowness i present you with this scenario. let’s say you’re out on a saturday night. a sweet, pleasant, and comely guy/gal approaches you. before he/she leaves, he/she leaves you his/her number. now, about an hour later, another guy/gal approaches you who is equally sweet and pleasant, only this guy/gal is absolutely gorgeous, a perfect ten! he/she too leaves you his/her number. now, within the next couple of days when you go to pick up your phone, who are you going to call? okay, maybe you say, “both”, BUT
who are you going to call first and who are you more excited to get to know better?
the stunner, perhaps? SHOCKER!
how shallow of you!
LOL. it's human tendency to be
a little
shallow.
it’s
not intentional, it just IS.
later you might go on a few dates with the two guys/gals and realize the stunner is but an ambitionless and immature child and that the average joe/jane was really more your intellectual match, but you must admit...initially you were bitten by that little shallowness bug
.
don’t be embarrassed! it happens to the best of us. embrace your shallow side, but keep it in check! standards must exist but should remain realistic. it’s usually little physical things that initially attract people to each other (you know, that killer smile or that great hair), but it’s personality that determines whether that initial attraction develops into a friendship, a romance, a feud, or a happy marriage.
oh, and don’t worry. I’m well aware that no one really reads profiles and blogs, especially when they are as long and verbose as mine, but I just have lots of thoughts and like to write them out…so write I do!
