personality vs. attractiveness

[billiam183]

im sure this has been done before, but what is your opinion on the importance of each one. which is more important to you? im sure most of you will say, "equal", but eleaberate

There was this guy i knew who i never gave a second look to. Well i found out he was gay, so it sparked some interest. i found myself kinda staring in class sometimes, and started to think to myself, hes kinda cute. so one day we had a partner assignment and he asked me to be his partner. i agreed and we talked most of the first day working on it and...He just seemed really boring. and after that i was like, "nah hes not that cute" of course these are thoughts in my head and i would never tell HIM or even anyone else cause thats just rude.

so my point is when hadnt talked to him he was kinda cute..then when i got to know his personality some, that went away

i am the least shallow person, really. My over all opinion is personality is a bit more important to ME, while attractiveness is still undeniably important

i have dated people where others have said, "what the hell are you doing with them?"..and others where poeple are like, "good job man"

So what is important to you?

For me personality is almost everything. I guess the only thing attraction does is get me interested. In my experience some cute guys are idiots and the average guys are way more fun to be around. Just depends:)

To me personality is definitely more important. Unfortunately at least at my school, most of the really attractive people are totally shallow and fake which is a total turn-off. I would rather have someone who isn't much to look at, but at least has some depth. I guess I'm also attracted to people who have "issues" and are vulnerable... not because I want to take advantage but because I can relate and want to protect them I think. It's hard to explain but I've definitely noticed that I'm more attracted to people who have had difficult lives, maybe also because I think they will understand me better too. So I can honestly say that personality is definitely the most important.

I'm really into a girl right now, who, though she doesn't have the biggest boobs or whatever, is still probably one of the most fun people I know, and she's still pretty cute. So personality means a lot, but if your not average at best then it won't do any good in my book.

Both of course. I'd probably go for attractiveness over personality, but they'd have to have both.

Personality but looks still matter somewhat . It nor hurt for them to b pretty

i guess yeah... looks hook you in but they only last so long before they get boring. personality is what counts

Personality against attractiveness! Hey, it's just pretty tough to go with one leaving the other behind; though to be blunt, I give more credit to attractiveness. Why? Well, because I have several friends, girls and boys who own very cool personalities, but it's never occurred me about any other thing, but friends; therefore, I guess it's because I find not much attractiveness on them.

I agree...

Attractiveness sparks interest, but personality keeps it.

Ideally, I'd like to find someone with both. :)
