Obviously young people look the best, both the men and women.
And, obviously looks certainly play a great role in chemistry, and chemistry matters a lot to some
....But looks fade and people get old, wrinkly, fat, and grey. Some people earlier than others... Through out my time here I have seen that this fade affects some relationships (either directly or indirectly), where as others manage to stick through...
...My question is, how do you deal with that crap? What must you do to see the relationship past the looks to make it together with one person to the old age?
You can't rely on your partner being genetically superior.
You can rely on some acceptance of reality though, if you plan to be in a long term relationship.
A person who can't handle their partner getting wrinkles or grey hair would just seem odd. Does that same person not look in the mirror to see they are aging as well.

There has been plenty of times where the said person refused to accept reality and cheated on their partner. Some have also divorced their partner.
No one wants to grow old really, but if you are already there most people do not want to be alone in their old age. They want someone to talk to, holds hands with, do things with, get to know each other on a deep level, laugh and have good times, be there for each other in the bad times, make their golden years special.
Stay rooted in the present. Don't be afraid to feel like you're still 16. When you look in the mirror today vs. 10 years ago, do you really see any changes? If not, then you won't when you're 60 or 70 and neither will the person you have been looking at for, say, 20-30 years, either. We always see the beauty in the people we love: ie, the heart bone is connected to the brain bone is connected to the eye bone.

You really have to marry your best friend not your best "looking" friend. You have to absolutely like each other first, then love, mutual respect, trust, etc. follows. No matter what anyone says on any forum or web site or even the "professionals", there is no age range which is best to settle down. It is different for everyone but seriously do NOT "just settle" for someone. Live your life, find the perfect partner for you, not that they will be perfect but they will be perfect for you and move forward together, side by side.
