    Personality 100%! Looks fade, charm and a sense of humour doesn't! :)

    Come on..personality no matter what anyone says will never be 100%, for me it's definitely personality, over looks but aesthetically there has to be some thing

    Personality for sure. Looks are a bonus

    Personality for sure. I've actually fallen for people that I wasn't physically attracted to, just based off their personality. Once you fall in love with someone's personality, all of them is attractive to you, even if they physically weren't so before.

    Personality... Someone funny who can make me laugh... I always fall for that.

    Looks and personality both matter. For me it's 40 percent looks and 60 percent personality.

    Looks are what first attracts me to someone, but personality is what keeps me interested.

    Yeah I think that.

    Guess it depends on whether its a short term fling or a more substantial relationship that you are looking for. You'd get bored staring at a gorgeous 10 airhead or Neanderthal over time (although for a short period it could be fun)
    For me Personality 90%, looks 10%.

    Personality - of a person has a great personality that in its self can be extremely attractive.

    I like the kind of personality that leads to good looks over time, i.e. someone who has self discipline, a strong ethic of physical activity, a low whining quotient, an interest in health, and a willingness to try new things, like a new diet whenever necessary in order to stay healthy. I'm not compatible with very rigid people who insist they can't enjoy life without eating poorly/smoking/using drugs/drinking too much, and I don't find them physically attractive either.

    Personality and intelligence. Looks don't matter when you're old and grey - you need someone you can talk to and get along with.

    They matter to me! So does someone's ability to do more than talk.

    I want to be attracted physically to the guy I end up with and I want him to be attracted to me. That's not saying that we both have to be perfect or even fit in to the idea of what we normally find attractive...but there has to be something there.

    This is a silly post. Best quote in this situation is that looks capture the eye and its the the personality that steals the heart. An affectionate, caring, supportive woman who has the ability to comprimise and love with all they have brings out the same traits and caring in myself. Finding that is more substantial to me that a woman who is just appealing to the eye.

    And also, society and corporations has ruined what beauty is. Contouring makeup. Fake eyelashes. Fake hair. Push up bras. Botox injections. It's silly, so much work to make women what they aren't. To me natural beauty is the moments that steal my heart. Just waking up in a t shirt and the soft look in their eye and the hair a mess with a smile after my goofiness. Now that is beautiful. But I guess I'm old school.

    It all comes down to personality, no matter what the person looks like

    Personality and intelligence are far, far more important to me than looks. Granted, I definitely am glad that my S/O is nice to look at, but her personality is why we've been together almost 7 years.

    Let me add to my previous post, I do think personality and character are just as important if not more important than looks...but that doesn't mean that I would want someone who is with me to not find me attractive and vice versa. Maybe it would be my personality that makes me more attractive to them...I don't know. I would just want to be seen as beautiful to them.

    Looks would have to be first thing to catch your eye, but then shall i say HumouR is what sustains the chemistry. :p

    Yep. Looks are definitely important but they wont keep you interested for the long term.

    I need to find some kind of physical attraction to light that spark - that could just be the way they look at you sometimes, and I do need to know they are attracted to me but yea I definitely think looks matter to keep that bonfire burning!

    Gimme both thanks!

    Personality is what first attracts me and looks don't matter too much. But personality and looks change.
