Even though the post did not ask about anything but looks, women feel the need to say "looks don't matter". It's like they're all taught to say that so they don't feel superficial.
I remember the dating world well and it certainly DOES matter with women. Even if they're not sold on the "cultures take" on beauty, something about the guys looks catches your eye.
Let's put it this way, if two guys came up and had all the wonderful qualities you look for in a partner and one of them was short, bald, and weighed 300 pounds, who would you choose? | |
This is going to sound weird perhaps superficial but I do think looks matter... although for me in all honesty its the initial vibe or feeling that I'm attracted to.
I'm not attracted to every person I find physicaclly attractive so why am I attracted only to some, it's got to be deeper..
For me I feel that the universe presents a new possible "someone" in an attractive package, to insure that I will be attracted.
Recent example: I met someone in a group, strongly felt his presence, then started to think about him, He's a bit on the skinny side which I'm not superficially attracted to, but the more I thought about him, (I mean I was thinking about him, I must be attracted), the more I realized how attractive he is and felt attracted physically.
When I found out he's quite intelligent, the attraction factor went up.
Later when we talked, found that he's on a spiritual path.
Attraction factor raised even higher.
The more we talk, the more I find common ground between us, the more I'm attracted.
But I probably wouldn't have gone as far had he not been physically attractive to me.
But then again, the more I know about him the more physically attractive he becomes.
