How much do looks matter. Boys and girls.

[Derryck]

I don't think I have to explain this one.

[sqishy]

The looks help, but personality is most important.

[Castle of Glass]

personality > looks

[Eric57]

I think looks matter. To an extent, though. I would never date someone simply because they are hot, but I also wouldn't date someone if I didn't find them attractive. He doesn't need to have the best body in the world or look like an underwear model, but he needs to be at least somewhat attractive for me to go out with him. Looks matter, but they certainly aren't everything. And most of the time, someones personality makes them 100 times more attractive to you.

So again, I think looks do matter, but they aren't everything. It's a small part of why I date the people I do, but it is nonetheless a part of it. I think it's like that with most people.

Most people say that they only care about personality
but that is a lie (Not everyone)
Looks do fall into the relationship field.
If you don't find them physically attractive
then you may not want to continue your relationship sexually wise.

Personally, If i find them physically attractive,
that's a plus.
But If the relationship is only built off looks,
and their personality is horrible,
your relationship is going no where!

When planning on being with a person for the
rest of your life, looks won't be there forever..
When your both old and wrinkly,
it's the personality what will keep your relationship strong!

As all the others have said, looks do matter, but the absolute factor is the person and his/her personality.

[skittles_was_here]

i think ALL people no matter what they say include looks when they're looking for their perfect match, but they're not always the most important thing. i know a lot of people that favor personality over looks, but still favor looks as well.

[Miserabilia]

they have to look like a person, and healthy. nothing else matters, besides personality

[highschool]

they matter. because 9/10 looks attract you first. But that definitely doesn't mean that a relationship can't form because that person didn't find you initially attractive. Personality matters a lot too. Someone can start seeing you in a whole new light if you have a awesome personality.

so overall it's important, but personality seals the deal.

[MoonMan]

Looks matter to everyone one way or another.

[CharlieHorse]

Obviously personality is way more important than looks, but I hate to say that looks matter as well. I wish they didn't, but they do :(

[Abyssal Echo]

to me the person/personality is more important then looks but, lets face it there has to be physical attraction. so looks do matter.

[ksdnfkfr]

Looks initially but personality for the long run.

[NeuroTiger]

Certainly 'looks' acts as a primary attraction but on the long term, 'personality' outweighs it.

[chrisawesome]

I personally believe looks are more important. When you see someone, the first thing you see is how they look. I don't think most people will go up to someone and talk to them because they are ugly.
If you think you have an ugly face or something, then you should take basic care of your face and really pump up the rest of your appearance; lift weights(guys), wear makeup(girls), dress more respectful, wear nicer clothes, color hair darker or lighter color, get a cleaner haircut/style, definitely personal hygiene, loose weight or go on a diet. Most celebrities and models are not very attractive. If their job relies on being pretty and hot they most likely have had some type of plastic or cosmetic surgery. What they can do is keep their body in good shape and quality. This will dramatically boost your ego and you will no longer have to worry about people seeing you as ugly or attractive. You will feel as if you are attractive. ---The most important opinion of you, is you!

[Melodic]

Personality, looks do matter in some degree but you can't exactly date a person just for their looks.

[WeAreOneRepublic]

There is really a lot of indecision on the percentages for me but I will say that personality outweighs looks but looks are still important

[Amazerful]

Looks help but personality is most important

[Bellissimo]

Looks are important but for the long-term personality is much more important.

[Hypers]

To me everything matters like i want both looks and personality.

[Harley Quinn]

People who say looks don't matter, I don't believe you. How can you form a relationship if you're not even sexually attracted to them. You can't have sex with a person's personality as much as you might like to. There has to be a element of looks, you do have to be physically attracted to a person. I've always said that for me, it is looks > personality. I used to think that personality was all I needed but no. Looks, they are important. Sure, with a personality you get more drawn into them and you fall for them more or whatever, but I do think that looks are important.

[numbness]

You can't help looking at people and finding them attractive,however personality is very important as well
