IMO, let's face it... Men/Women will always notice someone physically attractive.
After some time spent together, then you realize the similarities/differences you have.
As for the "social class/education" part.
Again after spending some time with your physically attractive GF, the tastes comes out which cannot be ignored.
Does she prefer sweet 3in1 compared to brewed coffee. does she know red wine is for meat, white for seafood and champagne should only come from France. Does she add ketchup to her tomato sauce? Is her steak always well done? did she throw away the cheese you were saving beyond it's expiry date.
How's her friends? Especially with alcohol?
So yes, social class and education is a big factor...
There's a limit on how ones self can adjust... Too much and the person will break!
pansin ko when it comes to tolerance for looks
women have greater tolerance for not-good-looking men than men can tolerate not-good-looking women
Just read the thread topic again...
Social Class/Education
GF - no issue
Wife - yes, it's an issue... you cannot teach class and that same lady will be teaching her values to your kids
The immediate relevant example I can think of is the engagement and wedding of Prince Harry to commoner Meghan Markle.
well, i think educated, middle class guys wouldn't marry girls who only finished elementary
pero college grad ok na
i'm sure di naman requirement ang PhD
^IMO, they're trying to stay "relevant"
The guy is 6th in line for the crown, mauuna pa mga pamangkin nya before he gets it.
And if it doesn't go as planned, they have divorce.
If he was #2 and #3 in line, then we can talk about Meghan's background
From my vantage point naman, women who are more accomplished are either finding it difficult to get a consort or spouse, or are simply more choosy in getting one.
I've met several lady doctors from SLMC and TMC who are still single and unattached. They are not ordinary looking naman and would ordinarily have no problem getting dates. Same thing with some lady lawyers I've met from business trips in Cebu and one lady who is a newly-minted partner at SGV who I got to work with once.
Magaganda, edukada, at mukhang naman galing sa matinong pamilya.
These accomplished women who are able to get BFs or spouses later on parang late na rin nakakapag-asawa and when they do, they're not from the same class (or the spouse or BF is not as accomplished).
usually successful women have hard time finding partners coz
1. they have very high standards
2. men find them intimidating
