Looks or personality?
1 week 1 day ago
Looks aren't all that important it what first gets you visually interested but if she is shallow and can't give me any mental stimulus then her looks are all there is and pretty girls are a dime a dozen. what i look for is some one who is pretty i am not going to lie but not too much over the top beautiful because they are pains to deal with. i think about what if they were to get parallelized from the waist down or burns all over body would i still at least still like talking to them after we are married. but i am too young to think that far ahead now but it is something that i consider
I agree with much of what thewarangel said. Looks aren't priority for me, but they do tend to spark the initial visual attraction (Well, as long as you're meeting in real life as opposed to those internet dating sites)
Basically it's just a combination. It may indeed start with looks, but the most important part is the personality.
We're such visual people that it's hard to not consider looks if you haven't talked to the person before to learn about who they are, but then again we've made ourselves to be so visual what with mass media culture and all

I believe it takes both. If someone has a great personality, but completely ugly, I'm not in. If someone is gorgeous, but is insanely dumb, I'm not in. You dig?
I say personality rules over looks cause looks can't last forever. Same with personality yes however, the personality rarely changes compared to looks. And usually people tend to not change for the worse unless something bad happens to impact their lives and change everything but other than that I say personality rules over looks any day.
Looks or personallity?
Both. There must be visual appeal to get my attention. There must be personality and emotional appeal to keep my attention.
Rule works the other way around, even if one is more emphasised than the other:
the thing about how girls are more emotionally stimulated and boys are more visually stimulated.

I believe that personality will win over look. When you are captured by someone's personality, your love will last longer. That is "a beautiful soul under the ugly mask" rather than "an ugly soul under the beautiful mask". I hate the kind of love that is "first-sight". My, it's so fake and it disgusts me. And songs nowadays are like "sexy, hot, blah blah...". You call that love? If some guy likes me just because of my outside appearance, that guy better disappears. Well, unless he has an extraordinary personality, I'll love him. But well, I never really in love yet, so I'm not so sure about that. Maybe I'll do the opposite of what I said. If so, I really want to slap myself.

Hmm, well an opinion from a guy here, and while I will say that looks are hardly unimportant, I will most likely go for a matching personallitty above some hot babe.
Of course, I would be lying if I would say that I would try and date someone who would look completely unatractive in my eyes, lets be honest. Combining both will be hard, so I will probably try and find middle ground somewhere.

Well. I think your choices are too extreme. Of course personality is important. but if the person in question is downright ugly. Then well. I would rather go for the "Lets just be friends" approach.

In retrospect that last post seems a bit harsh of me. If some one told me they liked me, (I don't have much experience there.. whow whee.) no matter who it was and how she looked. I would take her request seriously and answer truthfully. That is the least I could do for someone, anyone.
Honestly, Looks are the first thing I look for in a person. However, that doesn't mean that personality doesn't count either. Of course the other person has to look attractive but personality plays a big role as well.
It's important to have a good personality if you want a serious relationship. But if you have a good mixture of both, it's great. I love the look of a guy, but when he's a jerk I just dump him.
Anyone who says looks arent important are lying they are important but can often be affected greatly by personality, Ive crushed on girls who i wouldnt consider beautiful or even pretty by normal standards simply because they were sharp as a tack and extremly interesting.. likewise dipsy beautiful girls are a big turn off for me,...
but given a choice i think wed all pick the beauty over the beast even if we had to sacrifice personality to get it, we are sexual beings its just how it is.

Well, if we're going to be brutally honest. The first thing you notice about anyone of the opposite (or the same depending on preference) sex is how they look. That's just how humans are. We take into account first that they're attractive to us in some form then matters like personality comes after.
That's not to say it always works that way. I do know a few people that have known someone for a while without attraction but after a few years built up an attraction through personality and conversation. But I would still go on record that looks comes first all the time. It may not be important in the long-run but you're not going to think in your head when you see someone unattractive to you "I could go out with her/him/it."
In the long run, it's personality that always wins. That's of course if you're looking for a relationship. If you're just a flirt hoping to dart from one woman to another then it's just looks for you as you're not staying long enough for personality to matter. For those who are looking for long term closeness or even short term affection, personality is the winner.

I'm not exactly experienced in these situations... But if it was me I would prefer someone with great personality as well as the looks although there aren't many of the around. Both aspects are quite important but if I was to go out with someone who's gorgeous but has a stinking personality I wouldn't be happy in that sort of relationship. But If I was to go out with someone who's alright, not too gorgeous who has a perfect personality then I would be more than happy to continue on with this relation ship. On the other hand if there was this girl who' extremely displeasing to the eye but with a superb personality I don't think I would enjoy that relationship neither...Would you?
It may sound tooo harsh but I think that no one here would like to go out with someone who's really ugly
So in my opinion both are very important but I prefer personality over looks, just not too ugly, although my thoughts may change once i'm older.

In reality, Id say Ill go for looks then I search the personality.
in short, the better the looks the higher the chance to be notice.
but if the personality is bad even though the looks is great, its not possible.
