So what is it with Stevie and ugly men!?

[Rod~A~Little]

I was wondering why a beautiful woman such as Stevie has dated....uh well...some not so attractive men.

Okay, so Lindsey was the exception to the rule, but...

Mick Fleetwood
Jimmy Iovine
Joe Walsh
Rupert Hine (?)

Yikes!....

[Silver Springs]

Although I would never dane to call Mick "ugly" (Well...maybe during his Uncle Fester period) I am so glad you didn't add Lindsey to this list lol.

Honestly. I would have been concerned for your safety.

XD

I 'm guessing her judgement was impaired and/or she didn't have on her glasses.

Maybe their talents were located further south?

I've thought about this. Aside from Linds and Henley, who are attractive to me, Yikes!!!!! Joe Walsh.....head for the freakin' hills

Mick

[Macfanforever]

I guess I will have no problem dating her.LOL,Hahaha I would not say anything negetive about Mick He's bigger then most of us.

maybe she's not so superficial, and is attracted to the person or a quality they possess , just cuz the package is pretty doesn't mean what's inside is good

[gldstwmn]

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

[WildHearted]

I guess she's just not as superficial and/or shallow as most of us. ~Looks beyond the surface, etc.

Yes, I think she likes people she perceives as talented. Then, once you love someone, you think they're attractive anyway. When she said her brother was handsome, I don't think she was being kind. I think she believes Chris Nicks is gorgeous. She may have realized that Waddy was ugly when she first met him, but I wouldn't be surprised if she considers him quite handsome now. Heck, I think Mick is gross a lot of the time, but after all these years of being an FM fans, I truly see beauty there on other occasions.

I always thought Mick was hideously ugly until this century. Now I actually see him as an attractive man. Rupert Hine is hideously ugly, period. However, I haven't seen a pic of him past 1989. I often have thought that I wish I could look past a cute face and into the soul of a man. Truthfully I am so tired of searching for love that I wish I would wake up one morning and never again be concerned with how cute a guy is and really fall for someone I truly LIKE being with. But it will probably never happen. I don't know if it's a gay guy thing or not but cuteness always seems to be the number one factor in a relationship for me in deciding if I want a man or not.

Back on topic, because this thread is about Stevie, I've often thought that a woman would be with a homely man because he could take care of her needs financially and in Stevie's case that he could help her become more successful somehow.

Yikes!....

It's her fascination with Beauty and the Beast....she sees the beauty that no one else sees.

I don't think Mick's looks have improved this century. Your change of view probably has more to do on what's happened to you on the inside, than what's happened to him on the outside.

And for me, voice alters my perspective too. Obviously, Mr. Wonderful and Heroes are Hard to Find album covers give me nightmares. But sometimes when I hear Mick's clipped, dulcet tones in an interview, I'm kind of charmed. His sound makes him look nicer. Then, again his personality causes him to lose the ground he's gained. I think of the guy who proposed to a woman who just got out of bed with another man and I'm repulsed all over again.

Yes. Mick mentioned that even though Rhiannon was a hit from the start and he also told her how important she was to Over My Head's success, Stevie was still insecure about her place in the band. I have no doubt that part of her attraction to him was the fact that he was the head of the group in which she wanted to solidify her claim. If Lindsey made any move to push her out, aligning with Mick would give her the power needed to fight back. Of course, I feel she did the same thing in Fritz. She'd have had a 40 year love/hate relationship with Bob Aguirre if she thought he had the potential to go places back then.

We gravitate towards those who might offer us security, career wise, home wise, financially and it's not necessarily a calculated thing. It's often instinctive. Just the way you start nesting when a baby is on the way. You are physically and emotionally drawn to things that might bring you comfort and stability.

I wonder when she was done with that? When did she feel she was independent enough to not have to seek a relationship with a man based on her need to secure her place in a band or use them for career advancement?

Good thing she realized that Lindsey could do greater things than Fritz. Otherwise, maybe they would still be in San Francisco singing in steakhouses...
