    Personality. Looks don't even matter much. Make me laugh and I'm done.

    Personality is key, but I'd be lying if I said that looks didn't matter to me. I've gotta have both, I'm all about the package deal. :)

    Definitely a bit of both there has to be some sort of physical attraction to make it work !

    Personality makes someone more or less attractive with time.

    BUT...someone you're just not attracted to? It's not going to work either, and no one wants to be a 'pity' date.

    I like to think looks don't matter, but they do.

    I always subscribed to the idea that personality trumped everything and it was not a priority in who I dated. But I didn't realize that there is a BIG difference between average looking and not attractive until I had an online date and realized that nope...I can't be attracted to that person. I just...can't.

    If the person is attractive in a way that can grow on you and you find more attractive with time? Go for it. But if you think you will need to shut your eyes and think of someone else each time you kiss or do more? That's a deal breaker.

    Mostly personality. However there has to be some sort of physical attraction there.

    In the past I had always picked personality a bit more so than looks (I've dated some guys in the past who people always told me were super ugly lol,) albeit when I finally settled down and got married I picked my husband for 50/50 looks and personality. Not only does he look good, but when words come out of his mouth I don't cringe lol ^^

    Personality is way more important. Looks might catch your eye more at first, but I can think of plenty of guys I wasn't lightening bolt attracted too that I ended up developing crushes on or dating after I got to know their personalities. I can also think of some guys i thought were pretty hot at one time too that I'd rather punch in the face than kiss.

    Appearance sparks the interest, but personality keeps me coming back

    Well, been a long time since I've been in the market, but a woman is beautiful directly in proportion to how wonderful she thinks I am. So I guess it's neither -- bad judgement is the most important characteristic.

    Just Echoing what others are saying, looks obviously play a factor in who you're attracted to but someone very attractive could be a total *kitten*! Personality really is key.

    So I'm thinking of dating this girl but she's not crazy attractive 5/10 maybe, but she makes me laugh and smile beyond belief. Just debating on the attraction part

    Looks will only get you so far. Personality is what keeps you interested.

    Also, the more into a person you are, the better looking they become. Or so it has been in my experience.
