How important is beauty when dating in your opinion?

The older you get, the more you realize it’s not the wrapping on the package but what’s inside.

People with beautiful souls look more beautiful every day.

If they have a beautiful personality, that is enough for me

Beauty in a man is different than in a woman. I can be attracted to a man who is far from physical beauty, but he has a masculine attractiveness that appeals to me personally. It’s not about beauty for me, it’s about attraction.

Why would I want to date someone who was not physically attractive to me?

It's everything.

Especially when you don't have a personality.

As long as I don’t find him unattractive looks wise, looks alone is not that important. Personality and sense of humour helps make a person attractive as well. I like a pretty guy and a good looking one but a hot one puts me off because hot people often think they’re all that.

i prefer the less "beautiful" type as maybe deemed by society or media. i like the average looking woman who knows how to carry herself... a lady and i do mean "lady" who makes subtle moves that i find attractive is what defines what i find attractive in a woman

Very. I would have to see my partner as beautiful. Regardless of the opinions on their looks of the others. Actually, if I'm able to see someone as beautiful and others don't, it's just an advantage to me.

She thinks beauty is myth.
Of course she does.
No forest names itself tree.
In self adoration.
Profanity.

Beautiful specimen she..
Hoisting my tired soldier.
Unslumbered so easily..
Mere turn of a corner of a sternly hid smile.

Attached to that fluid form
Moved across sheets soft and warm.
Must be formed by angels of the morning.
And at a score and twenty.
Was no more.
Forlorn.

Left faithless without faith
even in love
for having learned
hers to roam
Finally ended up alone.

There is only a lousy no more reply: Everything for naught. All is vanity.

Not necessarily conventional "beauty" or "good looks" but the other person has to have some physical attractiveness.

Guaranteed to get you the first date.... After that is up to personality... Only that will keep them coming back

If he can't appreciate me dress down he ain't worth my time dressed up. 😒

A nice ass is also important.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder

It's not.

It helps but to me, A bad body can be made up for with a good heart and mind. A good body is ruined by a good heart or dumb mind.

...In summation, a bad body isn't a dealbreaker.

There's a reason they call it being Attractive.

More so someone who is fit and healthy is a good sign. If someone doesnt care to take care of themselves then i wouldnt wanna date them.

It doesn't matter to me. It never did to me. You would surprise who I have dated or at least asked out to date. Yet it always came back to personality.

My history teacher is a total manlet but he's still hotter than a bunsen burner

Beauty is a sought after bonus when you plan on children.

i love arm candy.... sooo ya know she has to look as good as i do :-) LMAO

It helps. But I'm not into glamour types. Not that they would date me!

At your age??? People are not even alive by then.

And so you will make the same mistakes again.

It's subjective.

I find people most beautiful because of the way they are, rather than how they look. That’s always been so; I can admire physical beauty, but it’s never really determined with whom I’ve fallen in love.

@deadgerbil

I joke around alot but I prefer an average looking with a good personality over looks any day.

Equally important as finding someone that can mentally stimulate me, just looks alone is an absolute NO.
