    Most definitely! Looks fade.
    I will say that if you dont have a way to show off your personality to the person youre interested in, you better look good or find another way to get their attention...

    Absolutely! I don't get too hung up on people's looks. Personality is way more important to me.

    Thats true it can really go both ways depending on the situation. But i think its bs sometimes when someone says looks doesnt matter because at the end of the day you want to be attracted to your mate in everyway to keep it going or you maybe resentful or stray

    I think both play a role, but the one thing that in my opinion helps gives a relationship a higher rate of success is compadible personalities. :)

    Attractiveness is different for everyone, so someone I find hot may not be hot to the next person.

    I do put more emphasis on personality though, an extremely attractive person gets less attractive with a bad personality and an average looking guy can become irresistible with a great personality...

    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder...as is personality, to a lesser degree.

    Attraction (of all kinds) is a fickle thing.

    Personality, I like someone who can make me laugh and I can have fun with, of course looks are important you need to be attracted to the person, but sometimes it's all about the personality.

    Looks matter, but the better the personality, the less important they become. I'd say looks are what draw you to a person initially, but the personality determines whether you'll stick around or not.

    You are so right with that.
  • Looks are far more important. Personality doesn't matter. Definitely looks.

    Personality 100%. I didn't find my boyfriend that attractive when I started dating him but our personalities just clicked. I'm glad I tried it out because the physical attraction definitely came later. He's much more romantic than guys in the past, maybe because he doesn't have the ego that comes from great looks??

    I ask this question because recently this guy wanted to date me but i just could not find a way to be attracted to him physically. He had a nice personality but look wise, i couldnt even say he was cute. Im not saying im the best thing since slice bread but geeez. I felt bad about it :(

    Neither. I base all relationships on astrological signs and sexual talent.

    Looks are more important, at first. If the personality isn't there though the looks get ugly real quick. On the other hand, once you get to know a personality it could greatly improve the looks. So they are both equally important, but honestly looks are always what grabs attention first.

    id say overall personality matters most, i think as humans initially we use looks at first to decide if we want to go talk to someone. there has to be an attraction to the person in my opinion.then if you're attracted you go & see what they're all about. if though i find you good looking but there's no personality to back it up doesnt last for me. looks only get you so far, & plus they arent forever id rather have someone who makes me laugh & can hold conversation.

    Personality trumps looks for me. I learned to shy away from good-looking guys in my dating years. I probably overlooked some perfectly nice guys just because they were too handsome, but I had some bad experiences, and I'm happy with my final results.

    Gonna agree with this. Both have their places and the moments where they are more important than the other but at the end of the day if you both (or you several for those who do the polygamy thing) get along and can appreciate or overlook odd quirks/faults then that's about what matters. Because really they could have the nicest personality on earth or could be God's gift to humanity as far as looks but if your own personality can't mesh with them then it doesn't matter because you'd have walked away.

    Lol you are funny. I saw your post about handsome and you made me laugh. I have to agree with the astrology aspect of it. I do believe it to an extent.
  • well usually someone catches my eye because they are good looking, though sometimes good looks doesn't mean a great personality.

    For me it's a bit of both.

    Someone who takes pride and cares about themselves and taking care of themselves is personality. Looks are a natural side effect of that.

    Don't feel bad. He wasn't your cup of tea. It doesn't matter if he was nice, younhave to be some what attracted to someone. If you're to then you're living a lie and feelings will be hurt in the end. Better to just be honest up front.

    Personality and sense of humor. Looks can be distorted, if your a jerk you start to look less attractive and if you're cool and have a great personality any perceived flaws disappear. That is why there is a thing called chemistry :)
