What would you choose before falling in love with a person?

TO KNOW what's the INSIDE
TO RELY on the OUTSIDE APPEARANCE
or even BOTH

...I would choose both, well,...life isn't ez lol XP

Of course, like most people, the outside appearance is what attracts me to someone at first. However, after getting to know them, sometimes their personality doesn't make them look all that great. Also, sometimes there are people who I wouldn't initially think are attractive, but after getting to know them, their personality make them look all the greater. So outside appearance may be what's initial, but inside is what matters in the end. ((Looks fade... personality sticks))

Well a pretty face and attractive body will usually catch my eye but then if they aren't caring and fatherly then I just turn on my heels and keep on searching.

I would like to know them as a whole before I could make a commetment

i agree with JenosydesWhisperMatrix. a great body is bonus but its really what they are like as person that i want to know

I'd definetly have 2 say the inside........cuz u never no wut ur going for until u really go for it!

Quote: One time I had a guy that liked me.....He was short\\I told him not 2 tell his friends we were bf and gf becuz I didnt want my friends 2 no. When I found out he told his friends I told them no and broke up the poor boy. Now, I regret it, bcuz I know wut I did and I'm not proud of it. On the bright side, it did help me learn my lesson! Yet I think about every time when.....well, sumtimes I just think about it.

By the way, am I the only one so far that has voted outside appearance?

Well I'm not sure about actual choosing, but outside beauty is almost always what starts an attraction. Once someone has gotten another's attention with their beauty, then their inner beauty can also sneek through to further attract.

Outside first then the Inner but the Inner wieghs more than the Outer on basis

Well, lemme tell U that both are important, I will not go out with someone I dont like phisicaslly, nor sentimentally.

If U do, U will break up pretty bad (I mean U will cheat... )

Sure, its nice to have both personality and physical attraction towards someone but not really necessary, its a prefered choice to have the "best of both worlds" there but not a requirement.

I've met a few females who were beautiful and goregous but just didn't have the brains or feelings or personality to make things balanced-i've also met some females who may not look great or goregous but still cute in their own right and have great and loveable personalites.

Both, needless to say, but if i had to choose one I would go with outer. Unless there attitude was really anoying! But yeah both are needed to be in a realationship. If you don't like how they look but like being around them, it's doomed to be nothing but friends. But if you only like the outter looks, well eye candy can only last for so long.

I have to go with BOTH, and here is why. No matter what we say, and though I would love to be a saint and be able to say otherwise, outside beauty IS important. The thing is, not everyone finds the same characteristics beautiful. I know society has this model for the perfect looking girl and boy, but maybe that's not what everyone likes. I must admit that image pleases me, but it doesn't mean everyone is attracted by this model. But then again, physical beauty has its limits. If I find someone who is very beautiful, but treats everyone around them like crap, I'm not going to ba attracted by that person either. So, both are really important.

ok both of course well maybe the most important thing is to know the inner beauty but cummon we still need the appearance here 0_o''

I have always prided myself in being able to put the inner beauty of a woman first. While a beautiful outer appearance can be a bonus, it is not the most imporatnat thing to me. The outer looks are a shell like a book cover...its not the real item....the inner self is what is true...thats where the true story/person lies.

I dated a woman who used to be a model...she was very beautiful, intelligent, fun to be with, and very sexy....she also had problems beyond belief. She became an alcholic, had ulcers, heart problems, dozens of bad relationships, a seizure disorder, and a destroyed family. She presented herself as having it all together....but never did. Needless to say, we didnt date for too long. The woman i married was your typical plain jane, (and she knows it,) not great looking, but a warm sensitive person who was accepting of what ever life brought her way. I am glad I chose the way i did...How would you have choosen?

There is an old Abbott & Costello routine that goes something like this:

Lou: I'd rather marry a homely looking girl than a pretty looking girl.

Abbott: Why is that?

Lou: Because a pretty girl is more likely to run out on you.

Abbott: Yes, but homely girl can run out on you too.

Lou: Yes, but who cares, she was homely anyway.

i first look at outside appearence but i depend mostly on their personality

usually i like a good looking outer appearance, but if they're really mean or something i wouldn't like them....but sadly enough, i wouldn't go for a really nice guy if he was ugly....XP i'm soo confused....so i guess i would look for both cuz i'm picky.....

Both. I'm human aren't I? And I'm not an idiot who wants brainless twit.

To know their inner beauty first!
