Tee hee, thanks! It's funny you should say that, acutually; I was originally give this piece the heading "It's true for most", but I wasn't sure if people would get the reference. ;-)
Next comes a different hair style/colour, new clothes, contact lenses instead of glasses, newfound confidence... we're all not so different, are we? ;)
Natalie: I think it's a pretty human thing to do. We all kid ourselves that we do it for us, but really, deep down at the primal level, we're just preening our feathers to attract a better mate.
CB: Hehehe. You're spot on with that. ;-)
Except for the redheads. Damn you texta! It looked gold when I tested it, but when it dries it goes red. Haha. But whatever, I'm not hair-discriminatory... there are plenty of hot redheads about the place!
So I knew there was a reason I have recently had the urge to trawl through personal training websites, bootcamp sites and dance class sites...
I think that not only is it to prime ourselves to attract new persons but it's also so we make ourselves look better than the new partner for the ex-other. Well....in my case anyway..
It is indeed true that biologically you tend to slack off when you have "partnered" and work out and look your best when you are looking to mate!
Women, on the other hand, look great till they mate. They put on weight and begin to look matronly in preparation for child bearing... It isn't a co-incidence that your girlfriend seems to look hotter some days...
I've been through the ultra-fit to slack periods myself... and I try and keep at it now with the intention of keeping fit. Must be age!

It's kind of sad, isn't it.
Kind of sad, maybe... but 100% human, definitely.

M: Hahaha, exactly!
