I'm sure everyone wants and attractive spouse. I don't know if I agree if it makes you that much happier.
You or nobody else will believe me. But I'll say it anyways. I would not want an extremely attractive wife. It sounds like a headache and stress. I'd prefer the average looking plain jane over an attractive woman any day of the week.

I get it. I can see that. I see a really super attractive woman and the first thing I think is that she must be expensive.... LOL... it cost money to do it up sometimes....

I just saw a gorgeous woman at the gas station. I just thought "Wow she's hot, but it's probably exhausting dating her." Lol.
I think so much of what we see as attractiveness is really how someone carries themselves, grooming/hygiene and how stylish they are.
I remember when I was young Delta Burke (even thinner) and Jackee Harry became the TV sex symbols out of the blue. And neither fit the rail thin or athletic body styles of the late 80s. I still think Delta Burke is attractive at higher weights but much of that is because she 'keps herself up' as my grandmother would say. A smaller woman with poor posture & less basic grooming would probably not get the same response.
I'll also offer that I think a lot of people gain eight (meaning obesity not simply being overweight) when they are truly unhappy. So a woman who feels appreciated is probably taking better care of herself. Similarly men who think their wives take the time to dress nicely for them probably show more appreciation.
I had an aunt who was always largish and an uncle who was no Cary Grant- but she was always dressed when he got home & his first comment was 'how is my beautiful wife.' To be honest they looked 10 times more attractive together. The only thing I would liken it to is when Chris Meloni was on SVU & he and the lead actress looked like they tear through a police station to get to one another- while reasonably attractive on their own together the seeming tension boosted their attractiveness exponentially.
Actually men who are satisfied in their relationship have attractive wives because they love them. Looks are a part, but not the whole ball of wax.
I have met many women who I found very attractive. Some were very pretty, some average and some may have been considered by many to be plain. I really never cared about someone else's opinion of very much, and certainly not about someone I was attracted to.

Rinse, and repeat.
The only reason I can think that how "attractive" their SO is, is to impress others. That's a very delicate and shallow ego. One would hope, that as some of the posters mature, they will not have the need for validation from frat boys or the ladies you meet for lunch. You can try and impress all your friends, but they are not in the relationship, so in the long run they do not matter. Others are not around for the day-to-day grind, or in your bed, or there to make you laugh.

I am yet to make an unattractive woman my "wife" so I cannot really answer whether I am more satisfied now with my attractive wife, than I would be if I sought out and married someone I was not attracted to.
Not sure why anyone would do that.
