Well, Don, this answers why you have been single for so many years......
Having a check box of physical attributes will limit your pool greatly! I think you might have been putting putting the physical checkboxes first, and writing them off before you even got to know them.
It's amazing how a chemistry and an attraction on an emotional level can make someone very beautiful on the outside that those check boxes don't matter at all!
I have no physical checkboxes. Well, I am not into the morbidly obese. Chubby guys? Sure, Muscular guys, yes. Short, sure, why not? Tall, yup, like them tall too! If I am pretty much not repulsed by someone I meet and have a connection with, I find them attractive.
I don't even think going against the grain matters. Just ditch your physical checkboxes. Amazing things will happen for you.
