I think it's relevant because we're discussin "perfect partners" and a lot of people have physical characteristics on their wish lists.
I think my answer was pretty similar to hers?!?! So right now I'm pretty confused at why your response to me sounds so hostile. But maybe I missed something.

Anyway. I've never had interest. I mean ZERO interest. Too much love for black men, have great fathers in my life, know many good black men, need somebody who "gets" me due to shared history, and onnn and onnn and onnnnnnnnn. (I got a million reasons to love a black man, and obligation aint one. Well... maybe... nevermind.)
Ahem.
However.
I am now interested.
Possibly.
Maybe.
Yep.

It's hard to comment on this.... I could probably write a post about the other side... like what happens when you marry that person you loved in your teens BEFORE you go away to school and grow... especially if they don't grow in similar ways right next to you?
The assumption is, because you're already married, there's no choice to make. (I would also have said this, believed this.) But in reality, there is always a choice. And it's not always YOU who gets to make the choice, either.
I am still a very strong proponent of choosing love and partnership early- before career choices are solidified. I think our generation waits entirely too long. I think growing _together_ is highly underated. The challenge, both in your scenario and mine, is making sure folks grow together so that one person isn't feeling like their only connection is the one y'all had before you amassed your newfound characteristics. Well, that, and the fact that not everyone is as committed to growth as we might be. If we could make it past that bumpy part where the old us turns into the new us? It could be beautiful.
