Would you date a guy if he were handicapped, had a wooden leg, cross eyes, bow legs, unclean, matted hair and a lisp? This is a bit too discriptive I know but the answer is obvious even though a person shouldn't be judged by their physical appearence we all are quilty of that at one time or another. Truth is, they may have liked you for your looks in the beginning. I think if you were mean , uncaring , insensitive and rude they would not have continued to be your friend. So there is more to you than a pretty face hun.

One of the reasons is because (and this is strictly my personal opinion) is that people are shallow. They see a pretty/handsome girl/guy and think that they would look great on their arm (like a prize). And they think that other people would think more highly of them. That's probably why alot of relationships don't work, because people don't take time to investigate what's behind the looks and see the person for who they really are.
You'd be amazed at how many snickers I get because I have alot of women friends who are considered "fat", "plain" or even "ugly" by other people. However, I wouldn't trade those friends for anything and am not ashamed to be seen with them because they are incredibly nice and interesting.

Shall I give you a scientific perspective? Well, sometime during evolution, it was noticed, that, youthful looking females with lustrous hair and skin, were able to produce healthier offsprings. Also, good hair and skin, generally meant youth, which guaranteed fertility to a degree.
What is beautiful in a girl, has been psychologically proved to be more 'femininity,' that is, the more nearer a women's face to the female schema, the more attractive it seems. Now, more femininity again means more fertility.
Hence, men like women, who look good. Good just means, fertile. Isnt that depressing to know... Well, not all men are like that though... Although we like women who look good, we all dont fall in love with Salma Hayek or Angelina Jolie, do we? We just like to fantasize, or stare...

The young human male is often distracted by shiney or beautiful things. They are seldom mature enough to really look below the surface to find out exactly what it is they are dealing with. Fortunately as they mature this can be diminished in the more prized ones.
Of course the look of a person is what usually attracts us - we usually have no way of seeing their inner beauty (or ugliness) without spending the time to get to know them. So how else should we choose who to get to know?
Peace!

well have you ever liked a guy only for his looks? im sure i prolly have. im not saying its right im just saying its something we have all done before or prolly some of us still do. if ne of those guys that only like you for your looks ask you out just tell them no and that you need to get to know them better before going out with them. and if they don't give your personality a chance by just getting to know you first then they weren't worth it ne wayz. Personality is suppose to be the most luved thing about someone but sometimes we all break that rule. i wish we would all stop doing that. You can only do whats right even if they aren't. I mean if you like someone like them for them for who not how they look. otherwise your just like those other guys. GOOD LUCK!
Oh it ain't just guys girls do it too.

A lot of the time personality does not matter to guys unless they are getting married. And all guys want to be with a beautiful girl so they can't help but stare.

The reason for this is the media. If it weren't for magazines and tv shows and movies telling people what is to be considered beautiful, no one would have this problem. People will have to start to ignore what the magazines and stuff tell them before anything will change.

Because most of them are very shallow. Sometimes they are not looking for a long term relationship so they never take time to know the person.

Because we generally have absolutely no self-awareness, (matter of fact, methinks most don't even know there's such a word or what it means!). This deficit makes many, many, of us, very shallow indeed, including being phallo-centric, the opposite side of the coin to your question.

Primal instict. Males of all species are hardwired to reproduce with the nicest looking female so that their offspring will be nice
looking too, and therefore, or so it stands, healthy too.
