Stone Soup by Jan Eliot for April 12, 2020

Never mind about why she doesn’t look like a sickly thin magazine model. The question should be what’s a pretty woman like you doing with a grunt loser like him?

Works both ways. I’ve seen some grunt “loser” women with good looking men as well. First line of thought is fairy tales make you believe that good looks are supposedly needed to attract and find a partner. While looks do come into consideration to a degree I suspect most couples find its more important about the person inside that attracts them. Love is not always so blind as they say in so many cases.

He’s a grunt Over because he acts like a jerk and dresses like a slob in public. Not just because of looks.

These days “the beast” isn’t gender specific.

Hubby does NOT like to get dressed up; he jokes that he wants to be cremated so he won’t have to wear a necktie. I do enjoy getting dolled up, and as a result we never look as if we’re going the same place. But he would never, ever go out in public looking like that bozo.

At least she is reading

Cap’s the wrong color.

The problem is that the beast has the nerve to criticize HER by asking why SHE doesn’t look like the woman on the magazine cover.

And too often, a Beast who has a Beauty (of the physical or any other type) isn’t satisfied with one at a time.

A g/f (the married one) took me into an adult bookstore in Montreal. At $35 a pop I managed to convince her to get just one.

My wife nicely fit my idea of beauty when we met. As she aged and changed, she changed my idea of beauty to match. Because of how she makes me feel, she is always the most beautiful woman around.

She is starting to question the effort used to win that one.

Say sugar, why are all my teeth stuck in your knuckles?

If he only values her on what he perceives she should look like, he is missing the point.

Ever wonder why it is so dangerous for children to wander far from the parent?

Lol. Love how a lot of us guys think we are gods gift.
