You Can’t Catch a 10

by JillM

If You’re Sitting at a 3.

I was talking to a friend quite some time ago about the laws of physical attraction. I firmly believe that interest in dating has as much to do with mutual chemistry as it does looks or anything else. Sure, we want someone who will fit in with our lives and our religion and our children and our standard of living, however that initial spark is what makes us want to find out if those other things will work.

I think that in general, we can say if we want to see someone a second or third time because of that spark. I like the way you look, I like the way it feels when our hands touch…OH YEAH baby…Let’s go out again!

Anyway, while I was discussing this with my friend, I was telling her how much I just love handsome men who take care of themselves. I was also saying.. Well of course I don’t take care of myself like I should, so…. To which she said.. Jill, you can’t attract a 10 if you yourself are a 3! (leave it to her to be completely blunt)

So that is my advice for today. Kid issues, religion issues, money issues and the rest aside, if you are relatively shallow in your first attraction like I am, then BE who you want to ATTRACT!

(grumble grumble…gonna have to get my treadmill out of the garage….)
