For a one nighter, looks.
Anything more, personality.

Hi, I think both r equally important cause lets face it, u would never approach someone unless u were attracted to them first and that comes with looks, cause u really can't read someone's mind to find out their personality now can you?
Once u r attracted to someone then u would probably go talk to them and thats where their personality kicks in and if their personality is good to well then the better its for u don't u think?
Meaning looks is what inclines u to a person and their personality is the reason u stay with them. Thats what I think, could be wrong!
Take care!

Honestly speaking, I personally feel that the personality and character of a person is definitely more important than looks.
Think about it. You are going to spend the rest of your life eventually someone you feel special. Would you still be with him when he's old and frail? Would you mind being with him if he's sick and unwell? That's why you cant judge on LOOKS, cos all these will change as you grow old.
To me, personality and character is more important. Wouldnt you desire your partner to love, care and be concerned for your welfare, to be there when you're low, to be there when you need him, to be there when you're sick and old and frail, rather than just focusing on your face and your boobs and your butts all the time? No right?

It depends on who you ask, but if someone thinks that looks are the most important, they are shallow. I can understand if a person just can't force themself to date someone that they find unattractive in a physical nature, but dating someone purely for their looks is just stupid. I believe that if a person has a great personality, their looks shouldn't matter, but if a person can't stand to be with someone that doesn't meet their physical standards, they should at least hold looks and personality as equals and try to find someone with both, instead of just going for the hottest person they can find, no matter what their personality is like.
In my personal opinion and preference, it doesn't matter if a person is male or female, black, white, mexican, asian, fat, thin, tall, midget, blonde, brunette, bald, fair complected, tan, clear skin, or pimple faced! I don't judge on looks at all. I reserve all judgement on a person until I get to know them. And if I were single, and I liked a person's personality, I'd give them a chance no matter what they look like.
Between you and me, I actually have a friend in mind that isn't physically attractive at all. He's got unruly hair, he's very overweight, and he has very crooked teeth. I don't have a crush on him, but he and I get along great! And if I ever divorce, I will definately be spending alot of time with him and perhaps persue a relationship with him.

Well, in the long run personality. But at first when you first meet a person attraction is very important if you want to date them. That is all you have to go on. But if you are friends only first then attaction relies on personality. So both.

People always say personality is more important, but seriously they did a study on this. The first time you meet someone, they've got something like three seconds before they make a lasting first impression on you. Even if someone has a shining personality but they totally repulsed you the first time you looked at 'em, chances are, they don't have a snowball's chance in hell to be your lifelong partner. Looks create attraction, but personality seals the deal. =)

Personality. Having both would be a plus. Personality is what will keep the relationship going. When you're old and wrinkled, the looks part is gone and personality is what will still bind the relationship together.

it depends on the individual> For some its the looks but for some its the personality. We humans are alike in the way we look but each one of us has a different perspective abt life.
So there is bound to be some difference of opinion but it is ur life and u should do what pleases u.My opinion is that go for personality bcoz a good persona can make up for the lack of looks but good looks cannot make up for the lack of persona.

I don't agree with your 'sis' either.
Beauty is only skin deep, besides one person's idea of beauty varies with the next so it is no point getting worried over other opinions.
Think of old married couples, they may not be 'beautiful' in our sense, but the thing that has kept them together is their personalities and there undying love for each other.

mmm looks by a mile especially if I am just starting to date her. Personality has grown up to be such a vague term, it could mean kindness/genorisity/caring/understanding and all that fun stuff but most well-raised girls have those qualities and for all I know the personality could be fake. Looks tell alot more about a person than their personality unless you dump a bucket of makeup on yourself everynight but life experience would help you sort through true and fake beauties

looks are more important at first but personality matters if you want to have a long term thing with the person coz no matter how lovely you think they are, if they annoy the piss out of you you're going to want to dump them soon enough
