anyone that says looks isnt important is full of sh*t if you ask me. You could be the nicest person in the world, funniest person ever, but if you look like a turtles scrotum then you arent gonna get anyone.
There has to be a physical attraction there...you cannot go out with someone you are not physically attracted to. That doesnt mean saying no to anyone that doesnt looks like a supermodel - but you have to find someone cute or pretty, or gorgeous etc.
nearly everyone says "looks means nothing to me", but thats crap cos how many people have ever laughed at someone who is overly obese, ugly, hairy, wierd looking?? nearly everyone has again.
Personality is the most important, Looks isnt far behind but both go together
I got asked out by a very very very attractive blonde girl, but she not only was thicker than a goal post, we had absolutly nothing in common....so i said no.
The same situation is someone having a fantastic personality but being physically unattractive to yourself, if that eve happened to me (im sure it will) i would say no too.
Looks and personality go together - you cant have one without the other
