Personality Vs Appearance?

January 4, 2007 7:53pm CST
How important is Appearance to you when selecting a partner? Does Personality matter? We are raised to believe in inner-beauty yet the world is still completely vain. I believe that appearance is important to attract believe into conversation but after that its all about personality. Please discuss. Thank You.

I tend to find places where like-minded people go, where I am more likeoy to meet a like-minded person wthout having to LOOK that hard. Somehow the more I like someone, the better they look!!!

I have to agree, the more i get to know someone and like them the better they do look.

ppl say beauty is skin deep,but tht is what matters most in the beginning.Just by seeing somebody , u can't say tht he is genius or moron,but wht u can decide is whether the person is beautiful or not. Tht's easy and done automatically by the hormones,they tell weather to go and start conversation or just ignore.Once the initial foundation is laid, we start going deeper into the skin, and search for tht spark which ignite ur grey cells,which stir up ur thoughts,..well thts wht is personality...

For me, it's all personality. My last two girlfriends were gorgeous. One of them was a model. But I couldn't stand their personalities. I didn't stay with either of them long. Looks are overrated. Not to say I wouldn't love a girlfriend who was both good looking and had a great personality, but I'm very easily annoyed. I need a girl with a personality that fits with mine.

I think that initially we are attracted to someone because they have a physical characteristic that appeals to us but that a relationship will not unsue unless their personalities match also.

I think finding someone that you're attracted to physically to some degree is important, but I personally will go for personality before looks. I've dated some great-looking guys, but their personalities usually ended up being the opposite of what I was looking for when all was said and done. I agree with one of the above posts, stating that sometimes those who aren't so attractive physically, can end up being more attractive later becuase of their personality. Funny how that works. Frankly, I'm not picky...and really, who am I to talk? lol A guy may not have a great body or a gorgeous face, but I usually find something else that I like about them physically anyway, such as their eyes or smile.
