Happiness is an ugly husband?

Happy Happy Happy

Now “they” say (the latest study "they") that a happy marriage is a woman with an ugly husband. Well if so, then let me be miserable with Hugh Jackman! Or Doctor McDreamy!Or that Thor Dude, Chris Hemsworth.

Possibly, I gave that thought too much "thought."

If I have to sacrifice myself, I will. Doom me to have to wake up every day and look at one of those guys.

It’s hard to be considered the ugly one in the relationship.

All this time, I thought the world's view of a happy woman was one who found a rich husband! Who knew it had more to do with his face rather than his bank account.

What does ugly got to do with it! Dumb is good. Rich is good.  But ugly?

Something is not right. So, what if your husband is better looking than you are but you both are considered attractive? How does that figure in the happiness scale if neither is ugly?

I vaguely remember another study many years ago that stated ugly men made better lovers so could that have something to do with it? A country song mentioned that older women made good lovers but does former First Lady Barbra Bush seem sexy to you? Or Joan Rivers?

What’s the study got to say about husbands who have trophy wives? They were right all along? 

The “Study ” says, “Psychologists who studied newlyweds found men who were better-looking than their wives were more likely to be unhappy and have negative feelings about their marriage.”

Tracy, myself, an expert in marriage having been married for over 30 years says, “A man who is consumed with being good looking does nothing for me. Give me accidentally sexy!"

Still Happily Ever after
He's not ugly at all!

But let us examine the study….its not just about having an ugly husband, but one that is uglier than you…so if you are a ten on the beauty scale you can pick and chose just about anyone….but what if you are on the one or two end of the scale? Slim pickens you might think.

At least women can dress it up a bit, make-up covers a multitude of flaws, the right clothes with the right spanx-- plastic surgery -- You can insert upper padding to draw the attention away from the face!

As I always say, you can fix ugly.

Men are out of luck. Many lose their hair, their shoulders sink to their bellies and they forget how to dress to enhance themselves…for example, dress socks and shorts, oh my.

I am still confused by the findings. Should I tell my four sons to look only at the ugly girls?

Don't you dare bring home one of those 'purty' ones! You will be miserable, son!

No wonder George Clooney isn’t married….he only dates attractive women.

Personally, if I say I am happily married, as a reader you must assume my husband is uglier than me.

My friends have already told me what a handsome husband I have, so that either leaves me in a miserable marriage or my friends are liars.

If by chance I am better looking than my husband, then I am doomed and depressed because of a study that tells me my husband is unhappy.

Woe, is me.

I am not listening to all the absurd studies that keep coming out every day messing with my mind. My personal study proves that studies are bad.

Although, for you single ladies looking for love, don’t quickly dismiss Mr. Nerdy guy who is challenged in the looks department. He might make you the happiest girl in the world.

Where was Don Knotts when I was single? I could have been so happy!
