Mirror, Mirror On the Wall, Who Is........

Most of us might remember those words uttered by the evil queen in the fairy tale - "Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs".--- Mirror, mirror on the wall , who is the fairest of them all.
The picture l have posted is of a lion and his lioness -note how spectacular he is while she looks like a 'plain Jane' - and that is something you will find in the animal kingdom. Some males are more attractive than the female.
Now these are my questions : (1) Would you want a mate who is better looking than you are?
(2) - How would you feel if your husband or wife gets all the attention when you go out?
(3) - How important is looks in a relationship - can it make it or break it?

I fully agree with @DianneN. I do not pretend to get the attention of women when we go out.
He gets attention from women and I get attention from men. There is more than only beauty in a relationship. Of course in the beginning beauty is important.

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.
(I'm not married yet...) But if I had a husband who got all the attention when we go out then I will be okay with it as long as I make sure to be the one that gives him all the complements before he gets from other people.
I think looks are important to most men than women. But looks can spice up a relationship. And then looks shouldn't be prioritized because people age with time.

@Kandae11 well said too.
There are some lady friends I had that wanted a man with a beard. So to them having a beard was important and the looks didn't matter.

I don't know very individual questions..If you have a good relationship with the person, looks shouldn't matter that much.

It really has nothing to do with real love. I was proud when my first husband got the most attention when we went out. Back then people thought he looked like Elvis plus his manner was very sexy, like the Fonzie on Happy days series.
Truth is though, I loved my last husband the very most. He had a caring and sweet manner but was not much to look at.

Well when I look back on some that I thought were attractive, now I would not give you tuppence for their looks. I think I had a screw loose

All those questions are now simple to answer and a lesson learned. After I lost my soul mate in 2017 I was quite surprised life continued, I never looked at him as being better and he never did that to me, We always were as equals in everything, Now if I still had him and he was alive he could look like Valentino, get all the attention everywhere to himself, and so on just so that I still had him by my side,

I love the picture you chose.
Yes, I would like a mate better looking than myself. I think it would compliment me, or I would hope it does. I've seen how people compliment each other in looks. It makes them look perfect together, just like that lion and lioness.

Physical attraction is important, but beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Couples in love are not thinking in my view who is more attractive but believe they have both scored a ten out of ten.
If they are thinking otherwise and feel insecure this when relationship problems will occur and have.

I had better ask my wife. I think sometimes it is more about personality I would like to think. Some say people get married because of good looks or lots of money. In my case l have neither !

(1) It wouldn't really worry me.
(2) Being a bit shy and an introvert, I'm perfectly happy for my husband to get all the attention.
(3) I think it would only break a relationship if one was very vain or narcissistic about their appearance.

It's always fascinated me how the.lioness doesn't have a mane I like good looking guys. So much emphasis is on the lady and her beauty. Good to see a good looking male for a change. If he's decent to me that's what matters and of course a sense of humor is important and not forgetting about a job.
