Little does he know he can't see the whole forest when he is blinded by the trees.
haha he basically described an AFC."The husband who's less physically attractive than his wife is getting something more than maybe he can expect to get," McNulty told LiveScience. "He's getting something better than he's providing at that level. So he's going to work hard to maintain that relationship."
oh boy! great news for AFC's! now they can go out with this research and proclaim to the world "I am going to marry a hot wife because I will be the best supportive husband in the world!! I knew being a nice guy would pay off in the long terms!!"Physical attractiveness of husbands is not as important to women, the researchers suggest. Rather, wives are looking for supportive husbands, they say.
So it seems the mismatch in looks is actually a perfect match. "Equitable is unlikely to mean the same on every dimension," Ariely said during a telephone interview. "It just means that overall two people make sense together."
