How much do you care about looks?

[Mizzlsd]

I used to have a specific look that I would go for. The typical romantic fantasy. Long hair, mysterious eyes, thin. I loved the Severus Snape type of person.
In a relationship looks are important. Who ever is beautiful in one persons eyes is ugly in another.
But people shouldn't be shallow and refuse to give someone a chance just because of their looks.

[Rogozhin]

Looks matter for me and what I like are not all necessarily model-like traits that are admired by the mainstream people. I'm sure I've come across several "hot" actresses/models that have done nothing for me (in terms of piquing interest). I really do need someone with looks that I find attractive though.

That's very cruel.

Unless you have good genes, looks eventually go....

It's the personality you're left with.

Yeah, I agree have you ever seen and old person who was extremely attractive as they were back when they were younger?

this thread is still here? wow.

Well, I've really no use for it,as I'm pretty much convinced girls are all shallow. If its not looks they care about, then its either money or social status. I guess my problem is solved once I get one of the above. ;\

honestly not all girls are shallow!!, as for me i could not care less about looks and fashions or what ever!!, i mean i have my own style, rareley us make up, i don't follow the "trends" i guess those who likes fashion would get scared at my style though, but i have had shallow girls as classmates earlier, and for some odd reason people seem to refer to me as "cute" and foreign guys they seem to think i'm "hot" or something, when i just try to be myself?

the world is a really strange place to be living in

Despite what you think women aren't attracted to looks or money, it's how you present yourself and more importantly how you make them feel. I knew this fat, old, ugly guy who lived in his parents house because he didn't make enough money at his job. He was dating several women, at one time, all of which were 8's or above on a 1 to 10 scale. He liked strippers since they always had money and paid his way or bought him stuff. After meeting him my whole understanding of women changed.
I saw in another thread you were looking for a girlfriend. I think you just need more confidence and to act less needy or desperate. Try it and see what happens. Good luck.

I think age plays a huge role in how shallow others are.

Personally speaking... when I was younger I only took notice of hot girls.

Now I'm in my late 20's I prefer a pretty woman of course... but personality is much more important.

The age factor aside (Ronin is right), the looks and/or social status might get you noticed, but unless the girl is stupid that is all it will get you.

The more mature their outlook on life, more they will focus on your grooming habits, manners, way of thinking and (most of all) how you treat them.

I recently broke up with someone who was quite attractive, because of his attitude about other people and aggressiveness behind the wheel of a car. It may sound shallow, but if someone treats total strangers with contempt and disregards my own safety why would I want to spend time with them?

I personally go for a 50-50 chance. Most of the good-looking guys here are douchebags trying to get into my pants :|

Seriously, I just really want a guy who's able to put up with me, respect and accept me for who I actually am. Honestly, guys are fucking complicated as shit, and most of them are douchebags :| so there's no real point in just going for looks.

[Guigoo]

to start with i can't put up with douchbags either.

in a certain extent, tho, i think everyone is sorta worried about looks, either your own looks or someone else's look. I mean, if you pay close attention there's even a pattern on the kind of person that usually attracts you.

i say this, because if i look back @ my ex gf's it's noticeable that all of 'em [which weren't so many] look alike somehow. so i suppose that even unconciously we do care about looks.

however, being strictly attached to that would be acting pretty much as the douchbags we've criticized so theres a lot more to consider in a person rather than looks
