I do have to agree though. If you're not physically/visually attracted to someone, where do you go? Yes, you can get to know someone's personality, but if the spark's not there, it usually fizzles & you end with a handshake. No chemistry.
Lionhearted1967: I think personality is more important unless you are looking for a trophy to be seen with...lol ..That said...What good is a "trophy" with a bad personality?
Think we should add being genuine to this post some people post photos that are meant to be of themselves when they are pics from clothing catalogues etc and oops many ordered that dress.
I'd be lying if i said looks don't matter at all. However, i have found over the years, that my idea of what is physically attractive is not the "norm". Personality is more important, i don't want to be with a pretty woman if she annoys the hell out of me. I made that mistake years ago, and thankfully learned from it.
Women are like cars. Even thou it has a nice set of headlights, feels good to put your hands on, comes with it own rubbers, has a great rear end and can be driven anytime anywhere. If it makes a lot of noise and is rough to handle.......you don't want to keep it for very long!
DoznEggs: I find it interesting that the only thing mentioned for being ugly or uncharming was "has a little fat on the bones".
IMO, having a little or more than a little extra cushion doesn't make someone ugly or uncharming. Guess what? No one can help what their features are. Heart attacks can be genetic as well as other health issues. The uncharming part comes from a person's "Personality". PERSONALITY will always has been #1 in my opinion.
Has anyone noticed that if someone is not as attractive as most people prefer..... that when you get to know that person and their personality comes out, they become more attractive to you?
Well, that works the opposite way too. When one is drop dead gorgeous / handsome, and they have a bad personality they become less attractive.
No offense meant, Just my .02
For those curious few: I don't bark, but I'm not Jaclyn Smith either.
I do, but I rarely bite.. A little "nibble" here and there is nice though..

Honestly? I go for personality! When I meet someone who is truly good inside and makes me happy, then he looks good TO ME on the outside. Going by looks alone would throw me in the shallow category, and shallow gets you no where in life as far as finding true happiness!

Make yourself happy.. Happiness is an inside job..
Unfortunately a person has to have that something that catches the eye first. Sad but true. Hopefully after that they have the brains and personality to keep someone interested.
