Do you think the line has to be drawn somewhere?

Say, for example, you where completely in love with someone one of these people, would you still go out with one of them?

it's only natural to think someone's good looking or cute, so i think it's acceptable to draw a line at something - but personality is just as important for me, because i'd like to love being around them.

them examples obviously draw the line LOL

Those pictures are just distrubing! You can't be with someone if you don't feel attracted to them,simple as.

And have a lovely, funny, crazy personality :D

There's a line, yes, and for the most part I would say everybody has to find their partner at least a bit attractive. I think if you truely love someone, you love them for who they are and their personality etc, because that's what attracts you to them. Looks are just a bonus, but still needed really in this case.

For example, there are plenty of girls that I know that I would shag their brains out, but that's just lust. I'm not attracted to them personality wise. On the other hand, I did have a best friend in which it started out as just a friendship, but then I realised I'd fallen in love with her, and not her looks, though that was just a bonus. Sadly, I didn't do anything about it, and now we've drited apart.

But do you see what I mean now? There's a different between love and lust.

See all this, well Mr/Miss Perfect would be very fit, I dont agree with. A nice, cute girl with a lovely personality would be perfect for me, I dont need some WAG looking girl to make me happy. They are just eye candy, for a relationship it wouldnt matter.

Anyway, too hot and they would seek other guys attention, lmao. :p

Also, I think when you're younger and prepubescent, you generally don't care about personality. But as you get older you realise that it's not just looks that count.

It works in this way for me: If I think I love someone, I DO find them physically attractive. People complain about Joe's teeth, but I love them. But if I don't find them physically attractive I will not love them, and I'm not forcing myself out of love or anything, it's a system where it's either all (looks and personality) or nothing.

Yeah that fat girl is obese, but some normal chubby/fat girls can be quite attractive and have fun personalities, she just looks like a beach wale and is the extreme of being fat and is of course yuckety yuck yuck!

Exactly. I don't buy the "I don't care how he/she looks" because that's bullsh!t and it's been proved by many sociologists that people tend to date people they find good looking, it's then natural order of things.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and beauty can be a lot of things. Personally, my type of girl as far as looks go are blonde, blue eyes and smaller than me. I like her having a dancer type body (oh wait, it's exactly how my ex-girlfriend is and how my current girlfriend looks like...a bit less lol). But for personality, I need a leader, sometimes who has strong opinion and views, who is classy and intelligent. I hate girls who are always scared or don't know what to do and have no opinion. It's not right.

But it happened to me to talk to someone who is less my type but I had a lot of fun with so I'm open minded really.

Personality's majorly important otherwise you're stuck with wallpaper, nice to look at but *****ing dull as hell. Looks are kind of important to me but I wouldn't go out with someone on looks alone. When it comes to looks I like girls that are individuals really, I can't really stand the glamour look and such (so basically anyone in Patrick's signatures I probably wouldn't like :laugh:). I haven't really explained it that well.

Well, to be "in love" with someone you need to find that person attractive but what one person finds attractive another person doesn't

BREASTS - because you can't motorboat personalities.


LOL.

If you're obsessed with the looks of a prospective partner, then it's a fairly safe assumption that you're quite vain about your own appearance - like attracts like.

Looks only matter as much as you put them on a pedestal. I only get excited about people with a personality I like; there are plenty of superficially attractive people out there.

I see what you're saying but you still have to find someone attractive in order to have a physical relationship with them, they don't have to be super models but you have to be attracted to them

You start with their looks when you first meet someone you have to find them attractive.
Then if you see them more you need to get to know their personalities.

Generally looks are more important at first, but then personality is as if not a slight bit more important after the first time you meet them.
