How high do you put looks on the relationship requirements rubric?

There has to be some kind of attraction. Why get in a relationship with somebody you have no attraction to.

For me if I am sexually attracted to her and I can walk with her in public and be proud/happy in her company, that is high in priority. Yes personality is important but there has to be balance. Of course you can't just partner with a pretty face alone.

Very high but its not my be all end all.

My ex I think was stunning in the face. But damn she was a bytch. Took me awhile but I finally realized I needed to let go for my (our) sanity and true happiness.

My new girl I'm very attracted to. She may not catch a person's eye like my ex does but damn if she isn't the sweetest girl and being with her makes me realize just now important attitude and compatibility is in a relationship.

When I win I bring we with me
That question can be interpreted side ways :patrice: ...I have to be attracted to her yes.:hubie: But there is a wide range of looks that I call attractive. :ehh:
Like below, some are more / less attractive than the others but I find all of them in the range of what I generally find attractive. That said it's not a hierarchy of traits, there just are set of things that have to fit. If they fit we good, there is no order...

It's not the highest rank. I'd put personality far above looks. Do we gel together, can we have fun doing nothing as well as when we're out on the town, can I trust her, etc. Also I'd put intelligence higher. Not talking about book smarts (although that matters to a certain degree), I'm talking about...is she smart enough not to be heavily in debt, does she handle money well, can I trust her to make good decisions, is she curious intellectually (which partially boils down to her not being religious), etc.

Looks are important as well obviously. You can't deny that being attracted to someone matters. But there are more important things to consider, especially if it's a potentially serious relationship...

I think I value looks alot.

But I find most black women attractive.
If you take care of yourself and you're black, you probably look at the very least decent.

I don't think i have low standards, I just think black women look amazing... no simp :hubie:.


I mean seriously tho, I think its hard to find an ugly in-shape black woman.

I value looks way more than I'm comfortable with.

...I want to at least be attracted to her, geez...otherwise, I'm gonna cheat on her...It's so shallow, but that's just what it is. I can't move forward with a woman I think is ugly..

Looks mean everything, then nothing at all.

I must be attracted to her in order to be in a relationship with her. But beyond that, it doesn't matter. So I wouldn't throw a 7 in the bushes for a dime simply cuz she looks better, but I wouldn't date a sub-5 at all, no matter how positive her other attributes are.
