An interesting twist of the situation. How real in reflecting reality. It seems like a good self image is the foundation of a loving relationship and that it takes two. The question is how do they affect each other? As you point out nothing can be assumed.

life is all about perceptions Colin Every woman is beautiful when she knows she is loved just as every man is handsome to his lover

This is really very sweet. A person is always beautiful when seen through the eyes of love. It's a beauty, though, that's hard to explain or specify, I think. It's not that they have eyes of a certain color, that they're a certain shape or height, or what have you... it is simply that they are they that makes them beautiful and beautiful they are in the most extraordinary way. And that, in and of itself, is beautiful. A heartwarming piece, really. Perception, indeed, colors everything. Christine
