Dear Annie: I have a question for "Lonely in Connecticut," the almost-40 short, balc mand with below-average looks who can't get a date. Does he zero-in on the 5-foot8 slender, model-like blonde with the great body? How about giving the smallish, even pudgy, brown-haired gal with a nice smile and quiet wasy a look?
When my attrative, personality-plus charismatic son complained that he couldn't find anthing but high-maintenace girls, I asked if, when he entered a club, he scanned for the best lookers there. He answered, "Of course!" I suggested thats he eliminate all those girls and check out the next level and see if he finds more interestings and lee-needu girls - those who don't depend on their looks alone to be attractive.
Today my son is married to a wonderful gal, everage-looking and slightly overwieght, but fiercely loyalm supportive and hard-working. They started out as friends, and tier friendship "caught fire," as Ann Landers used to say. Maybe "Lonely" has overlooked women who would enjoy his company and have much to offer - if only he would LOOK at them.

Dear Southern: We conpletely agree that too many men who refuse to look past the exterior are missing some fabulous women. Thanks for the testimonial.
In Personal experiance this situation of gettin past over for the high maintance gal has happened too many a time! but finally I found the guy that has looked deeper and found the better person than whats on the outside! But guys, do take to heart what I just wrote down for you! These words are true! Yall need to open your eyes and LOOK from the INSIDE - OUT! not the other way round!
