i think that liking a person can make you physically attracted to them. i didnt look at either of my partners the first time and drop jaw on the floor... but once i became friends and developed a crush they started to look cute! my current partner is very attractive to me now :)

Throughout life, the things you find important change. This is true for more than just physical attraction and what you look for in a partner. I think a lot of people, attractive or not, pair up with people that don't fit their ideas about what is gorgeous. Everybody who doesn't die young is going to get old and wrinkly, so if you want a good life partner, you're going to have to prioritize personality traits and common interests over physical attractiveness, otherwise you're going to end up paired up with somebody who doesn't do it for you.

I'm certainly not disagreeing with you, but let's not overlook how protecting your skin from sun exposure can help as the years pile on.
