Good answers so far. I bolded part of the initial post to show what I'd like you to focus on in your answers.
Shamou: Do you still feel that way about your wife now, even after all these years? If you do, what is it that keeps that feeling strong even as you come to learn more and more about her?
Claire: Congratulations on such a wonderful partnership
What was it about all those qualities that attracted you to him?
Annah: You probably walk past that guy on the street every day. And he's probably the one you least expect to fit your criteria. So what is it about those qualities that appeal to you? Is there any thread of similarity that ties all those qualities together?
Jim: I just watched Cashback. I think it's a great depiction of real beauty.
To all those who mentioned having to work for the one you desire, if you didn't have to work for their love, but they did challenge you in other ways, would you still be attracted to them? i.e., is it any challenge that increases your attraction, or does it have to be the challenge of winning their affection?
