In response to Jamesman:

Although most people DO present a bullshit surface and present themselves in a certain way to attract others, most people also prefer to present an image of what they would like to be or be percieved as to ALL people, or at least try.

Obviously many relationships are based on lust or the need to present an image of being a certain way in which the relationship is basically an accessory to life or a lifestyle, but that doesnt mean that ALL relationships are like that.

I know that in my dealing with others and especially my love, I try to present no facades and pray that the same is true for other person.

As i know i am not unique and my thoughts and feelings not unique in this world, wouldnt it be true for others to be the same, and though it may not be a large percentage (cyniscm) there would be others who are like me who try to not present facades to decieve or impress, and while a "Soul" in the religious context may or may not exist, the basic human personality and person is what I meant.

Conforming to a image or standard or even the relations standards or ideas on the way to act, behave and think is what makes most people behave the way they do and even though a LOT of relationships are like this, not all are, and not all have to be.

Physical appearance does have a great effect and I know i am too vain myself to be attracted, and my attention wouldnt be drawn to a more, homely(?) person, but it isnt everything, I know there are people I will still love no matter how they look and the fact that they are attractive just becomes a bonus.

But on the other hand, a person who does present a false surface is probably insecure in themselves regardless of gender or sexual preference would probably be not strong(?), mature(?) (im sorry for my poor english, i dont know the word, something like a mixture of those two???) enough to relate or have a relationship with another person.
