We live in a very visual society. Much emphasis is placed on aesthetics. In all honesty most people would choose an attractive partner over a homely one, even while claiming that inner beauty was top priority in their search for a viable partner. It's just the way of the world. Beauty sells. And besides, who truly wants to look into the eyes and face of someone less than desireable for any length of time, much less a lifetime? It's noble sounding to claim you believe the contrary but you can't sell that hog to most!

your post (and this is not meant personally) is a perfect example of how the attitude of a physically attractive man can cause him to become unattractive - a person's looks do not compensate for that...except among fools, I suppose.

I am sure the best way to look at this is to understand that there will be someone out there who thinks like you do and that type of compatibility is what it's all about - so my previous comment was not meant personally - just to illustrate my point earlier in the thread. And good luck to you in your search!

LOL! You gave me a hearty chuckle. Claiming you are taking the high road and kicking looks to the side of the curb when seeking a potential partner is laughable at best but not plausible in the least.

Nothing personal, just calling it as I see it! Perhaps you wish to play the role of a martyr and take one for the team of the human race while marrying someone who is less than attractive? Possibly this speaks volumes about your lack of potential as a possible worthy suitor for most as opposed to your self desire to be perceived as a liberal do-gooder. Smiles.

I think looks are the first thing we judge a person by. However I have chosen to keep my photo of this site because I want to talk to someone and get to know them before making any external judgements which can be so superficial.

When people ask this question and say "surely it's what's on the inside that counts," I wonder if that person realizes he/she also considers looks when it comes to who they think is attractive or desireable. OP, I'm sure you would not find just any woman attractive: there are things you like in a woman that have to do with looks: everyone is like that. So appearance does matter to everyone because we have to be physically attracted to a person. What's on the inside counts more, but what's on the outside always counts to a certain extent.

In response to: i wanted to ask as it was sone girl who emailed me on here out of the blue she said i wouldnt get any one intressed in me cause of the way i look.
Anyone who would do that is a complete idiot. Don't pay attention to someone who would do a think like that. This is someone who is a bully and a sick person. What kind of person would email someone and say such a thing? Ignore what she said.

Looks/appearance must mean more to women. Look at all the time and money they spend grooming, dressing, and supplementing themselves just to go to McDonald's. They even put their cell phones down while driving to adjust/add makeup or comb their hair. Loops....help .....foot in mouth super

For me is what my eyes accept. Could be funny but it is all about chemistry all together.
I could find a handsome man but the inside is not worth a penny.
I think it is important to your likes only.

Looks is not the most important feature of a person I believe.


Heart and mind are for sure!


However for two people to engage in a sentimental relationship there has to be a spark between them and that chemical attraction must be in place.
