text: Many people, men and women alike,  are shallow.  You have a handful out there who can't see beyond an outter shell to the beauty within.  I have known men,  who upon initial meeting were very attractive but after opening their mouth became less than desireable.  I have also known men who may not be "Mr. Perfect" from other's point of view won me over because of who they are and what they stand for...but most importantly,  how they were with me.  "Ugly" people can become beautiful once their heart is seen.  "Beautiful" people can become ugly the same way.    \n\nFor me it isn't about what a man drives,  where he works,  where he lives,  how much money he has, what he looks like, etc, etc.  It's about who he is,  what he stands for,  how I feel when I am with him,  how I feel when I am away from him...and most importantly, ABOVE AND BEYOND everything else,  how they treat me.   I said this before in one of my answers on here, but I believe it in need of repeating in this answer:  I do not mind struggling WITH someone,  but I will NOT carry someone who is capable of carrying themselves.  \n\nAs for why the "less than perfect" guys "can't find" a good woman,  perhaps you are looking too hard or looking in the wrong places.  Sit down and evaluate what you find yourself attracted to.  Does she have to be runway material?  Do you find yourself never looking twice at the "homely" looking woman in the corner?  Just remember,  there is beauty in every ugly duckling,  just takes that special person to see beyond the outter shell.  Good luck.
