Do looks matter?

[GJay]

I agree that humans always judge...but thing is they could be the most incredible looking person on the planet..and then end up being a complete dork. So I look past the looks and find the person within.
I've found that the more you love a persons personality, the more you find them attractive.

[paradox]

People you don't find attractive but personality - Great Friends
People you find attractive but have a bad personality - Forget it
People you find attractive and have a good personality - Go for it!

[louder]

Sounds a bit sad but of course looks matter, you have to be attracted to somone to like them.

I Wouldnt tend to date a ugly girl but with a good personality, i usually go for nice looks and a good personality

[!aya!]

in my opinion I would obviously say NO looks does not matter at all! all that matters is that you have a good personality,

[The Professor]

Looks matter,
It's the sad truth.
Human judge by looks as if you walk down the street you look at people and judge them even if you never seem them before or spoke to them.
If you find someone who looks attractive, you'll want to get to know them, rather than someone who doesn't have it in looks.
But I believe there is someone for everyone. People have different tastes so what may not appeal to one person, will to another, so in the end everything works out.
My boyfriend isn't the sort of person i'd walk down the street and fancy. He's not ugly, but not my type of person, but we got to knwo eachother as friends, then I could see that acctually, I found him really attractive, because his great personality helped me to look deeper. Now I find him totally attractive S;
So yeah, looks and personality both count.
But without looks theres not usually a good first impression so you don't get the chance to know the person.

Amen to that. My girlfriend isnt really what youd call hot, but when im with her and look at her i find her really attractive. I still havent worked out why, but im not complaining. But she has a great personality, wouldnt trade her the world.

And in reference to freakydude, go for it, if you make a mistake you learn from it, dont listen to a bunch of people on the net. Go with what feels right. Dont plan for things in life, takes the fun of surprise out of it.

Wise words from the professor Or not... :p

[FlyingJesus]

People you don't find attractive but personality - Great Friends
People you find attractive but have a bad personality - Forget it
People you find attractive and have a good personality - Go for it!

I'd just change the "Forget it" to "Bed for a night", but other than that, well put.

[mynameishelen!]

Thank god someones honest.

Personally, I've never really dated a 'minging' girl as such... I think what attracts you to someone, to get to know what their personality is like - is their looks. They dont have to be drop dead gorgeus, but with some people there's just something that makes them stand out, and makes youw ant to get to know them more.

Yayyy someone who agrees.

[kasi]

personality is like.. 99% and looks is 1% of what matters.

[James.]
