But broadly (I should write an agony column):
1. Beautiful - beautiful. The alpha-alpha pairing. Goes on for a long time, but because male ageing has relatively fewer downsides, ends in a messy divorce at 55. Still, great while it lasts.
2. Ugly man - beautiful woman: the best combination, as the ugly bloke pulls out all stops to keep his girl happy, and the girl's already made up her mind once, so not complaining.
3. Ugly woman - handsome man: huge insecurity on the part of the woman, or a complete lack of self awareness. Also, the male wrongly thinks he has a free pass to sow his seed in 25 year old Agatha. Doomed.
4. Ugly man - ugly woman: Both think they're hotter than the other. Ego conflicts, but they stay together because neither has any better options.
especially "male aging has relatively fewer downsides"
My guess is you're male.
