    when you look for a boyfriend / girlfriend / significant other / etc. do you care more about the person's looks or personality? I ask this because me and my friend are discussing this for the umpteenth time and I felt like seeing what PC had to say on the topic.
     
    Although I've seen this topic a couple times here, I'd like to think my answer has been the same.

    Looks are what get my attention, personality determines whether I stay or not. In other words, I believe personality is more important but I need to feel some sort of physical attraction to my girlfriend as well. A person can be the most genuinely nice and caring person ever but if I don't find them physically attractive then I just remain friends with them. However if there is a beautiful girl but she is rude to other people and doesn't give a shit about anything, then it drives me away.
     
    chillness is a priority. all these feral college chicks around here, I donnu man
     
    uhhhhh, probably personality > looks.
    like an 70% personality 30% looks. i don't care about looks on others too much as long as they have good hygiene and care about your appearance. i can't really imagine myself with someone hot or cuter than myself bcos then i'll feel like i'm not good enough..

    also i don't know how to act around people who i like because of their looks. like i'll dodge tf out of you.. help
     
    Personality matters most but looks are important too, I can't be in a relationship if I'm not attracted to the person. I don't care how hot/sexy you are, if your personality sucks, then I don't want to have anything to do with you. I wouldn't say it's a 50/50 scenario, but for me it's around 70 or 80% personality and 30 to 20% looks.
     
    I dont date. The few times people have talked me into it they get hurt and Im sick of the drama. Connections are for friendship, intimacy is for pleasure. Because of this looks and physical prowess are the only things I look for in a "partner".
     
    I haven't dated for a long time and don't really foresee myself doing so for a good while. I am not going to say that I don't look for someone good looking first because I do. It's human nature to be attracted to good looking people. However once in a relationship the personality factor is a priority for me. I would not date the hottest person alive if their personality was shit.
     
    I did not choose my current boyfriend due to looks. When I first met him, he was wearing an old shirt, ripped jeans, and a bandana. I did not care for any of that. I fell for his actions & personality.

    And I'm sure he fell for my personality too. :3

    BUT ANYWAYS, looks & size don't matter to me, really. I love him for who he is on the inside.

    I felt the same way for the previous guys I dated in the past. I don't care if the guy is hot, or ugly, or popular/not popular. If you show off your true self, like my boyfriend did to sweep me off my feet, you'll be sure that I'll end up falling.
     
    I like my girlfriends to be at least somewhat attractive. They could have the best personality and have all the same interests as me but if they're not physically attractive then all they'll ever be is a good friend in my mind. I'd say it's about 80% personality/20% appearance.
     
    personality. I have liked some very unattractive people before just because their personality shined.
     
    if booty count as looks then looks = 100%, personality - 0%

    But in all seriousness, I like personality and I couldn't be with a very hot girl with a terrible personality for more than a night. So I guess personality means more to me. A good balance of the two is nice though :)
     
    She's gotta have both. I like looks just as much as the next guy, but I don't wanna just stare at you and not be able to talk to you because we don't have a connection.
     
    I think it's like most people have said in this thread. It's a mix of both. I dont want a super hot girlfriend who's mean and petty and dumb, but I also dont want a super unattractive one with a good personality. I'd like a nice mix. Plus, looks are important when it comes to first impressions, unfortunately.
     
    Looks, I'm hella shallow yo.

    Also, I have a pretty strong/stubborn personality, while I've always found more submissive/soft spoken types attractive, I require someone outspoken and down to earth who doesn't put up with my shit and will call me out if I'm being a bastard, otherwise I'll trample all over them without even realizing it.
     
    -Good looks are nice but aren't crucial. Just as long as the person takes care of themselves they're cool with me.
    -Good physical health. I'd want to travel all over with the SO. So it's quite a plus if they're up for climbing a mountain or going on a pretty huge trip without dying etc along the way!
    -A COMPATIBLE PERSONALITY. By far the most important thing. I'm pretty iffy with a lot of people and if there's one thing that tends to be the dealbreaker it usually falls under here.
    -Common interests? Always a plus to have them I guess, especially in the earlier stages when you're getting to know someone.
     
    Looks attract me to someone.
    Personality keeps me around someone.

    Personality is what makes me develop the feels.
    But I wouldn't give myself a chance for the feels if I wasn't attracted to them.
