   I don't really want to start yet another long-ranging argument where neither
side will change (and no, you *can't* choose your emotions :-), but I'd like to
respectfully submit that trying to look good *period* sounds counterproductive.
(Come to think of it, the first paragraph above may be saying this).  I equate
it with what has been said about finding an SO; the best way to do it is to not
always be trying.
   Now, trying *not* to look *bad* may be alright...
