Your ugly side

Can you be pretty and stained at
the same time?

Folks spend a lot of time, energy, effort and money putting forth the image of their best attributes.  That's all fine and dandy.  But in order to really get a good feel for someone...wouldn't you want to see his/her ugly side upfront?

I mean if a person plans on getting comfortable enough around you later on to wear stained t-shirts and hole filled draws, wouldn't you want to know that before you get comfortable with him?

If a lady plans on wearing scarves, contact lenses, and fake bodies wouldn't you want to let that be a deciding factor for your future versus an "I'm gonna get you sucka" surprise? LOL



Truthfully, you probably wouldn't want to know any of that...and would prefer to go on with the illusions.  But if you do know a person's worst proclivities and still want to be with him or her...you may find a winner.

Something you never really want to know about a person is how damaged he or she was in the past.  You don't want to know any of their struggles.  You would prefer not to hear about how they had to overcome some of their bad habits.  It usually does not paint a pretty picture.

Those are precisely the things you should know.

Would it be better for you to know how jacked up a person was on the inside, prior to settling down with him/her? Would you prefer the keeping up of appearances that make that pretty girl seem like a dream?  Do you want to feel like Prince Charming was never the ugly frog to another lady?
