According to a team of researchers led by Christine Ma-Kellams, who is a social psychologist with ties to Harvard University and the University of La Verne in California, good looking people have been found to have shorter marriages and also troubles with staying committed to a relationship per time.
The researchers explain that relationships last because people are either not attracted to other people or try hard to not act on other attractions they might have.
It is also quite logical that a beautiful or truly handsome partner will have more attention and more offers for romantic relationships even after they're married/engaged because of their good looks.

Dr. Christine Ma-Kellams says: ‘There are a lot of good reasons why we pick people who are good looking, because facial symmetry in men can be a sign of health and virility and beauty in women a sign they have good hormones for reproduction.
Logically, the ceaseless requests beautiful and handsome people in relationships keep getting increases the temptation to cheat as some of the people coming on strongly to them could have better looks, more money and other things than their present partners.
