If a 'relationship' is based on anything so superficial as physical attraction, then what happens when that person gets old and wrinkly, or, perish the thought, suffers a disfigurement for some reason?

I forgot about letters too, when the wifety was atr college we used to see each other at the weekends only, but still wrote once a week and clled twice a week. As you say, build a good foundation and the relationship will be stong and wont topple over.
One thing i find funny is people talk about trust and there other halves and a lot of people dont trust there other half. Having gone through the relationship build we went through, we dont even think about trust, its a forgone conclusion that its 100% there and thats important for a relationship to be stable.
