How much does the way someone looks..

I don't like raving beauties...they look plastic. I would prefer a more natural looking woman.

I am funny about the physical. I prefer those who are fit.

Looks are not that important if they have great inner beauty.

Even someone funny looking like Sunstroke or lilminx will do if they are nice.
 
Physical beauty is relative . I have known beautiful looking people that were very ugly inside and vice versa . I try to look inside of people . The most attractive people I know , thier looks do not come into play at all . I am attracted to them because of who they are , not how they look . I don't find myself attracted to people just because they look good , more because they make me feel good . The ones in my life I find attractive may not LOOK so good on the outside , but are beautiful people as a whole . They are beautiful to me . An old saying comes into play here . Don't judge a book by its cover !
 
If I come to know how you are before I see ya, then it doesnt affect me at all how you look.

If its someone that you see on the street, work, etc, then yes, as a human some things matter. Not so much looks, but grooming is a big thing for me.

But all in all, as long as I feel no need to throw a bag over your head to go out in public, all is well.
 
I used to be totally hung up on appearances. If a guy wasn't my idea of handsome or hot, I wouldn't really give him a second look. However, after spending time online for a few years now, my idea about that has totatlly changed. I've got to know people via chatting without the physical aspect playing into it at all. I've had the great fortune of meeting some of those people, and while they may not have been what I would normally be attracted to physically....I found myself wanting to be with them because of their personality. So now..I try not to judge so harshly on outward appearances. They can, after all, be deceiving.

Are you simply not attracted to someone with certain looks, hair, or body size?


I have likes and dislikes when it comes to what attracts me to a man. Some catch my attention while others don't ... I already got flamed and stuff on another thread when I mentioned that I don't find myself attracted to men who are short , because of my height I like a man who is taller or my height, that is just one aspect I find physically attractive in a man.
 
Looks attract personality is what keeps....

Although, my present relatioinship, was words and thoughts before looks. She enticed me with her teasing words and comments. Then I met her.
 
How i view someone's appearance changes based on how i feel about them. As i get to know someone better, they become more physically attractive if i'm attracted to their personality and mind.


On the other hand, a grating, annoying voice can totally ruin the attraction i feel for someone.

No.

I used to think that way, but in high school I had schoolboy crushes on several women for whom my traditional rules wouldn't have given a second thought.

I can't let one simple thing, especially if it's utterly changeable, like hair or body type, really dictate how I feel about somebody.

There's actually quite a bit of research on familiarity leading to attractiveness. It's pretty neat stuff.

I thought familiarity bred contempt.

yep, same here. I find that beautiful girls have very shitty personalities because they KNOW they are attractive.

This is so true. I have seen beautiful women who become rather ugly when they express a certain...'I'm better than you" attitude. I have also found some who were not physically beautiful to be far mre beautiful than percieved at first glance due to their open and honest attitude.
 
I have to agree with Scylis- I find myself drawn to someone based on looks first, but also energy or aura that they exude. But I also find people how look great but have nasty personalities are big turn offs.
 
I think that usually what we first notice about someone are their physical attributes, but I also notice how they carry themselves, their body language the way they speak and if they can look into my eyes as we converse. If they smile or not.

I never dated what most would consider traditionally handsome men, but they were each attractive to me in their own way.
 
I used to have a certain look that turned my head more than any other and while I still enjoy eye candy I've learned it's often empty-headed.

The cool thing as I get older is seeing the attractive features in so many different looking people....their eyes or smile, a certain way they laugh, a sensitivity in their responses to people.

Thighs do it for me, too. With a bit of manfuzz on them.:p
 
The more a man reveals his core being to me the cuter he gets...depending of course on what his true self is like.
