Every now and again a thread comes along on Bluemoon like this and it's a shame. I remember Lucky Tomas a few years back, I also remember the OP's and I myself posted my own tail of woe on here just last summer.
Regarding the actually topic of looks or personality then obviously personality must take priority. But I found someone four years my senior last year who (to me) was the ultimate combination of stunning looks and beautiful personality yet it still didn't work out between us and it's a real regret of mine now that she doesn't speak to me and that doesn't look like changing in the foreseeable future (if at all ever). Hope it works out mate for you and any other Blue feeling a bit glum.
