Of course they can! It's not like I'm not gonna feel 500 lbs next to me.

I'm dating someone who is nearly 6" shorter than I am and he complains about my height constantly. He's a good guy, but at this point his negative qualities are starting to outweigh his positive ones and it has nothing to do with his height or physical attractiveness.

its not the truth though, the only truth is that you don't have the looks. But looks matter and that is fact, now after meeting someone, they don't matter as much, but in the beggining they do.

I can only say that you don't know what I'm like but you'd have to start from SOMEWHERE. If you wanted to know what I was like then there's e-mailing/phone calls to at least give some idea.

WTH is talking about you?! It was just an example. In your case, it's not like a blind person isn't gonna feel your beloved beard!

I think he might have thought I was making a really bad pun. Blind ... insight ... har har? I wasn't but can understand if it seemed that way.

True but it isn't right so I have to say something so that maybe in a small way (like small ripples) looks prejudice re romance and mating can start to change. I'm just doing my bit.

at first I was like 'whoa' I thought you were being sarcastic because I read it out of context, but I realize it was an honest suggestion.
