What if they were once beautiful/handsome when you marry them but was disfigured very badly in a horrible accident that will leave them that way for life?

My honest answer would be No.
What about you?
No. I have spent so long seaching and waiting. If I found true love, and got married I would Do anything to Keep that.
Through sichness and health, till death do us part. Sounds pretty unconditional to Me.
Beauty is only skin deep, it is what is inside a person that counts for more so - No, I for one would never be that shallow as to leave someone for that reason .
If there is love this would never be a question........or an answer. Love may hurt, but the person hurting knows the love. With love comes pain. are you willing to suffer?

No is a very easy answer, i think you will find that 100% will say that but not sure if that is true, although we may wish to stay with them some will leave because they just cannot handle it. Some may think that shallow but I would not critisise them, as for me I would like to think my love covered all eventualities. But you can never be sure of how you might feel. I just think that is more an honest answer than a straightforward No!.

Bingo, I understand exactly what you mean! True & fair enough, that people might not know what they will do unless they are in that situation. But like posters above mentioned-that if its true love then the answer will be the obvious-NO!

There is not black and white answer to this, the sad thing is that people do walk away and until you have walked in those shoes, u will never know.

It doesnt always work like that, I am sorry but No has simplified the issue and it is a very difficult issue. The injured party may instigate the other leaving because their love is so strong they would feel they are ruining their partners life. You are also forgetting the mental scars and changes that could occur with this type of awful injury. people change and sometimes not for the better and drive a partner away no matter how much they love them. I am still afraid that NO is a very simple answer to a very fifficult life changing occurance.

To me handsomeness is in the eye of the beholder.
I stuck with my late husband through lung cancer until the end.
If he were alive today and was disfigured that wouldn't had changed my love for him.
So not funny!!, the lady had a difficult trauma in her life and you mock it!, perhaps not on purpose, but think before you post!, there is a time to be funny and it is mostly on your threads.!!

Of course I want to say no...but there are so many contributing factors other then the disfigurment...as one poster stated the changes in your partner could well be more then physical...and there could be changes in how you feel towards your partner...has your love turned to pity...I would hate if someone stayed with me out of duty rather than out of desire...
I used to work with kids that were both deaf and blind...in the end I had to quit because I just couldn't deal with it...
