What really makes a person beautiful

I was rushing to my meeting that I didn't really want to go to today, running late as usual and in a general pissy mood. As I approached the library, I noticed a guy some distance in front of me. He had lovely long hair, and I am a sucker for long hair on guys, but then he turned his head and I didn't think he was particularly attractive. He was holding the door open for some girl.

A moment later I reached the door myself... and discovered it was held open for me, too. The guy had lingered to hold it open for me.

He smiled, and I swear he suddenly became the most beautiful person I'd seen all week.

And in noticing/sharing this, you are once again showing how beautiful you are. I'm delighted that you share your life with us.

Such a lovely story. Perhaps you should have said "hello?"

I've had a few people that I haven't been interested in at first glance "become" attractive to me because of actions, and I have to say that it's sometimes better than just lusting over someone.
Just seems more real I suppose.
