TIL There is an inverse correlation between the amount of money spent on a wedding, and how long the marriage lasts. The more people spend on the ceremony, the more likely the couple will get divorced.

Definitely. Looks fade. If that is all that interested you then you will always be envious of the next pretty thing. So as soon as a pretty thing comes along that you can have it's pretty much over. The thing is, all men want the prettiest girl they can get so even a guy who marries a 5 can still be vain but incapable of getting what he wants, so he settles. While a guy who marries a 10 may have gotten lucky and found one who is also kind and smart and hard working. It's the guys who stay with abusive girls who are the ones only interested in looks. And you can't say it's all his fault that the marriage fell apart if the girl was a bitch because she was hot enough to get away with it her whole life. But that perfect 10 girl who has it all may find out that she can do better.

This is all some pretty muddy water. Maybe there are just too many ways to interpret the date for it to be useful.
