i cant help but being the sole person here that disagrees with everyone. except maybe Will.
i think its totally unacceptable to base our dating choices ONLY on a persons personality. i guess thats the whole reason of the saying 'love is blind'. exactly for this reason. People seem to date people based on personality only. i find that thought offensive to 'good looking people' because it gives the impression that good looking people have no personalities and arent the dating type, while those that you are not attracted are generally good people and worth dating.
i can say i talk from experience. my first love wasnt exactly someone i was attracted to initially, nor someone id find attaractive now, but she did have inner beauty and personality, which at the time i did find attractive. i look back now and thank my lucky stars that im not with her now. thats nothing against her now. love did blind me, and you tend to grow out of it as time passes by and realise that it IS greener on the other side sometimes, and it doesnt always mean you should stick it out in what you are in right now.
hindsight is great thing to have i guess.
ok, after the whole rant - i must say that a balance of good looks and intelligence and charisma is good. but i have no problem with people assuming that only non good looking people have good character, good personalities, down to earth and generally good people.
another spanner in the works - theres also the impression that ugly people dont stray and are more committed to relationship, which is something no one has brought up yet, and may be a reason why people go for people less attractive than themselves??
sorry i couldnt just go with the flow with everyone here. i dont necesarily disagree with anyone gnereally, i just think it should be the one way traffic that it currently is.
