(Original Air Date: 11/02/06) Have you ever thought: Pretty people get all the breaks? Well, even some of the most beautiful people have a rough time in the love department. Rebecca dated Dyson for eight years and knew he was a cheater, but thought marrying him would change his ways. Dyson says he married Rebecca because she "earned it," but says he doesn't like that the ring on his finger hinders women from coming up to him. Rebecca suspects that Dyson has cheated on her since they've been married. Is she right? See what makes Dyson storm offstage. Then, Tiffany says when her husband, George, lost 50 pounds, he started gagging at the sight of her body. So, she got $20,000 worth of plastic surgery, hoping he would only have eyes for her. But it wasn't enough to keep George faithful. Tiffany says she's more gorgeous than any of the women he had affairs with, so why isn't her husband looking her way? Talk about the show here.

Find out what happened on the show.

Who decides who is attractive?

I have not been impressed with the looks of the people who claim to be gorgeous.  As soon as they open their mouths and reveal how superficial they are, they lose any attractiveness to me (not that they're that good looking to begin with).

 

Hey people?  Looks change for all of us as we get older, and getting in car accidents or other horrible things can destroy looks at any age.  Personalities and character are much more attractive than superficial appearances anyway.

This is a joke...

I am in aww that this is even going on.  I hope this man goes home and watches as he makes an idot of himself.  I can't believe how skewed his perception of relationships are and life.  You cannot be a husband and a chaser!  He isn't even good looking... and not everyone cheats!  Rebecca needs to get out of that situation and can't believe that she has even stayed in that relationship for nine years!

 

Good luck with that looser!

This guy took lessons from my ex

I really felt like I was listening to my ex-husband. He had 20 affairs that I knew of before I was 'done'. It didn't matter what I looked like either. I was in great shape, a professional dancer... all I had to do was say "No", and he responded by having an affair. He knew it was the most hurtful way to get back at me and try to control me. Thank GOD I don't have to live with that any more. Surprising tho, his parents were lifetime partners. His role model, however, was the playboy. Good case in point for my next relationships, find out who he idolizes... and that gives a clue.

he isn't even

 THIS GUY DYSON ISN'T EVEN HANDSOME, WHERE DOES HE GET OFF THINKING HE IS GORGEOUS?    IF I WERE YOUNG AND SINGLE, I WOULDN'T GIVE HIM THE TIME OF DAY.  I THINK HIS WIFE NEEDS TO LOOK FOR SOMEONE THAT SHE CAN DEPEND ON AND THAT WANTS HER  AND NEEDS HER.

HOMELIER BY THE MINUTE

QUITE A FEW PEOPLE ARE CONCEITED TO SOME DEGREE.  THEY WOULD NOT HAVE THE SELF CONFIDENCE TO GET THROUGH A DAY WITHOUT FEELING SECURE,  WHETHER IN ABILITIES OR IN SUPERFICIAL SATISFACTION WITH OUTWARD APPEARANCE.   AFTER WE'RE AROUND SOMEONE FOR A WHILE, WE REALLY DO NOT SEE THEM.........WE SEE WHAT'S INSIDE OF THEM AND THAT'S THE VERY REASON YOU SEE PEOPLE IN RELATIONSHIPS THAT QUESTIONS "HOW DID THESE TWO GET  ATTRACTED TO ONE ANOTHER".  WE FORM SOLID RELATIONSHIPS ON HOW A PERSON MAKES US FEEL.  IF A MAN MAKES A WOMAN FEEL PRETTY, SHE IS.  THIS KID HASN'T DIPPED HIS TOE INTO WHAT IT TAKES TO RECEIVE ANYTHING OF VALUE FROM LIFE.  IT'S GOING TO TAKE MORE THAN FOLLOWING HIS DICK THROUGH LIFE LIKE A DEVINING ROD.  ALL THAT WILL GET HIM IS A REPUTATION AND AN STD.  THIS POOR KID IS A REAL LOSER.  DUMP HIM.............

9 on the outside...

...but Dyson is a 1 on the inside. I've not seen such a superficial person in a very long time. Besides his appearance, he really doesn't have anything to offer anyone looking for "relationship" material. I feel sorry for Rebecca wasting so much of her life on someone that is incapable of caring about anyone but himself.

03/13 Gorgeous Isn’t Enough

Quote From: manofgoods

Um, afraid, this is a repeated episode in case you had forgotten. This was from four months ago, on the second of November. In case you're wondering if there is a follow up to this show about Dyson & Rebecca, it can be shown on here, which is called "Out Of The Dog House", along with Corey from the episode called "Revenge Of The Exes":

What is

 Dyson was a joke but you know what is really sad about his situation is that 95% of the women he will meet he can have. He is a good looking guy coming from a guy that usually will not say that. He is the kind of good looking guy women dream about that is until they get to know him. Strong women would walk away once they realize what he is the others would hang on because for whatever reason they would believe that there would be nothing better. I hope that you were able to help Rebecca realize that her strength lies within her and not in an others idea of what she is or should be. She is an incredible beautiful woman to look at  I hope that she can find the beauty and strength that lies beneath. You are right gorgeous is not enough. The question becomes what is?

SELF...SELF....SELF.....

THIS KID IS PERFECTLY SATISFIED IN LOVING AND SHARING HIS LOVE FOR HIMSELF WITH WHOEVER WILL SPREAD THEIR LEGS....   HE PROBABLY WILL NOT EVER UNDERSTAND ANY DEEP AND SINCERE LOVE FOR ANYONE OR ANYTHING.  I ACTUALLY FEEL SORRY FOR HIM, BUT EVEN SORRIER FOR ANY GIRL THAT'S DUMB ENOUGH TO HAVE SEX WITH THIS KID.  WHAT'S WRONG WITH THESE WOMEN THAT THEY DON'T THINK MORE OR EVEN ENOUGH OF THEMSELVES THAN TO THINK THAT LOVE HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH SEX.

my thoughts

cheating to me is a no questions asked deal breaker, i don't need the details just knowing you choose someone else over me is a flat out deal breaker. I know the pain and anguish and the anger of having someone I loved cheating on me. The feeling of inadequacy and less than, to me it's like the person that did this to me is saying you are not worthy of loyalty, intimacy, and unquestioning love and respect.

Can i understand the dream of what if being bigger than the reality of what is? yeah i can but it doesn't change the way i feel about cheating, which to me is the ultimate betrayal. It is the one thing a man and woman can share other than children they may be blessed with that is most sacred and pure.

for a man or woman to taint and destroy that sacredness is... well it just makes me angry.

I hear some women speak of their experiences and talk about a feeling of floating, i have had that feeling too and after much contemplation i recognize it for what it is. Shock! The heart and spirits way of protecting itself till you can face the extreme pain and hurt of what has been done.

when you are ready to face it the floating will go away, I hope that you have a heart friend to catch you when you fall because the landing is going to hurt real bad =( i feel so sad for anyone that is going through that . It is then after the shock has done what it needed to and has left you open to the emotions that you will begin deciding the next step, and it is your choice.

Only you can decide what you can live with and what you cant. We can forgive but forgetting, well unless you get a serious bump on the head that is not going to happen.

just remember the dream of what if is not the reality of what is, if you can not live with the reality boot him or her out after you have told them exactly how you feel.

Just remember another persons actions is NOT a reflection of who you are, it is simply choices they made good, bad or indifferent.

For all you broken hearts i give you big hugs and my heart weeps with you too, cheating is a terrible terrible betrayal and not to be taken lightly =(.

I am so lucky  I have a man who feels the very same way i do about cheating and we both had similar experiences. We have been together 12 years now and have a very good relationship, and so can you all too =)
