talking about a married couple.
me : when did she put on so much weight? she's not looking too good these days poor kid.
him : no wonder he doesn't want to take her out or spend time with her.
me : what rubbish! he's no adonis either. and anyway looks shouldn't matter in a relationship, should they?
[no comment]
me : what? looks matter so much? so you mean, if you and i didn't look the way we did when we first fell in love, we wouldn't have gotten together at all?
him : no.
[end of conversation].
how's that for brutal honesty?

most relationships begin with attraction - hence the importance of looks. though of course, beauty and beholders eyes and all those caveats apply.
