I would. It's not cuz I'm nice or anything but because to me how a person acts is more important to me. I can't stand mean people even if they are gorgeous.

Gosh guys, wouldn't you rather be around someone you love and feel great around than just someone who looks nice? Wouldn't do you much good if you went blind. Guess I just don't understand that thinking. Sorry.

First, I can't stand mean people, either.
But, they are out there!!
Guys pick gals USUALLY based on looks. Blame it on our ancestors. They picked the strongest male, the healthiest female, to produce strong, healthy children.
Now MOST of us are strong and healthy, due to good food, good water and MOST IMPORTANT - sewers!!, ie. a lot less diseases.
And it is true, like you said, if you base your choice of marriage partners based entirely on LOOKS, you could end up with a HORRIBLE marriage. My suggestion is to date for quite a while, then get married. Just to be sure.
Best way to tell what kind of person they are? Be with them when their car breaks down, at night, in the rain, on Sunday.
See how they act...

Personality is definitely the key. A great personality would supersede any physical looks and when 2 people are truly in love, physical looks won't matter. An emotional bond is much stronger than physical attractions and I would much rather have someone who is sweet, caring, down to earth and loyal regardless of looks. I agree with you 100% on this :-)

Hell yes I always look at what they have to offer me from there heart and not strictly by there looks. Looks are extremely deceving and what a way for Women to go fishing and reel Men in. I am above average looking and every Wife that I have ever been married to has been absolutely beautiful. I now have a girlfriend in Russia that makes American Women look very elementary in their looks. She is willing to marry me yet has the looks to have any Man that she chooses. Looks are very deceiving by American Women. If you are not a Calvin kline clone then you do not stand a chance with the Women of America.........European Women rule!

Yes I would marry him. Looks might initially attract you,but its his personality that will keep you. There were some guys in my past I dated that I didn't think would win any beauty pageants. However as I got to know them better it seemed they became better looking in my eyes. The same goes for the guys I dated that were handsome and they turned out to be jerks. I look at them now and they are less attractive to me. A good spirit will last alot longer than good looks

Absolutely! I'd prefer him to be attractive, but bad looks wouldn't stop me. Looks certainly matter, but love tansforms, I find. If you love someone they become beautiful to you (in my experience). I've dated men who are lean, graceful and gorgeous, and men who are homely. Also younger men and older men. I do care very much about a man's appearance, but it's not my main concern at all. I'll certainly notice how he looks, right off! That's human nature. But in time, his character and intelligence will be the deciding factor. A man with a leanly well muscled build, lovely hands, etc, etc *cough* may be great eye candy but quite boring...or not.
Kindness, integrity and intelligence matter far far more than appearance to me. Besides, physical beauty fades; moral character and brains do not. I discovered this in my early 20s.

I would marry them, looks are not important in front of the perfect character. Looks come and go, character is the same for ever. So if it was my ideal mate and he want very handsome, i would still marry him. If i loved him, i would see him beautiful as love is blind.

Of course I would. I have found that the more you love someone the more beautiful they are. We are all attracted to people because of their looks at first, but that can only last for so long.

I understand,there are some truly sweet,caring people who might not be 'the best looking' but they have a nice personality, it's deep down that counts.So I guess I would.

Looks are only one part of the total package. It would depend on how this person makes me feel. How they carry on a conversation. Lots of things are more important than looks.

I would. If this person was my ideal mate..treated me with respect and kindness and loved me like no other..
I'd be really shallow not to marry him.
Looks fade..a person's inner beauty is more important.
