When it comes to dating and what-not, do guys prefer looks or personality? If looks, then what primarily are they interested in? If personality, then what kind of traits do they like?
xoPandaBabyxo answered Sunday February 13 2005, 7:46 pm: Ok, it's kind of 50/50. Some guys look for "looks" and some guys look for personality. And, of course, some guys look for both. Anyway, when they think of looks, I'm saying the whole package. Eyes, Hair, Legs, Butt (eww), skin, teeth, yeah. Stuff like that. As for the personality, They like girls that act like themselves. They're not too preppy, they play sports or at least TRY. A girl has to laugh at a guys jokes, guys really like girls with a sense of humor. Anyway, I hope I helped some.

Most guys will say both are important,but they lean more towards personality.If a girl is gorgeous,but has a horrible personality,but good would it be to date her,they wouldnt want anything more than to hook up.The guys I know they like girls who are fun,and can joke around and don't take stuff too seriously.Who don't act all snobby (think regina george from mean girls).Hope I helped:-)
xsunshinexsmilesx answered Sunday February 13 2005, 6:37 pm: As almost everyone else has already pointed out, it DOES depend on the guy. But let's take this one step at a time, shall we?
1) Initially, when a guy sees a girl, he usually notes her looks.
2)After spending time with the girl, he notices her personality, which usually determines his opinion of the person (nobody likes to date an obnoxious girl, no matter how hot she is).
Thoughts based on experience:
1) Even if the guy prefers looks, and he doesn't think you're up to par, then he is definitely not worth your time. If he doesn't like you the way you were born, then he's not going to like you for very long even if you try really hard to make yourself prettier.
2) Same as the above: if he doesn't like how you act naturally, then he's not worth it. You shouldn't have to change your personality to fit another person.
Now some advice:
1) Be natural! You were created special and unique. You may not look like a magazine cover (does anybody? I don't think so), but you are beautiful! If a guy doesn't like your natural looks, then you need to find someone who will.
2) BE NATURAL! Be yourself...do you know how tiring it can be to be a "fake" everytime you see someone, just so that they'll like you? Be honest with yourself and with the guy you like.
P.S. Please don't think I'm saying you should't wear make-up and do your hair etc.; I just meant you shouldn't have to try too hard.

Every guy is different, just like all girls are, and they are all looking for different things. A lot of it depends on age - most teenage guys will prefer a girl they know won't care about having such a serious relationship, but older guys might be looking for something a little more serious and/or romantic.
Guys do tend to go for looks first, but don't panic and think that you're ugly!! I'm sure you're really pretty! The best anyone can do is make the most of their best feature, smile and be confident! Looking confident really helps to draw people to you, and smiling makes you seem open and approachable.
However, although guys do tend to go for looks first, you don't have to be drop-dead-miss-world-style-gorgeous to get a date. They are gonna want someone with a decent personality (most likely someone who isn't too clingy and can make them laugh) in the long run! No-one wants to be tied down to Ms. Bitch, even if she's also Ms. Beautiful!
Blessed Be,

KaYlA1213 answered Sunday February 13 2005, 4:21 pm: actually...it depends on the guy. usually a guy just wanting a gf really bad or sexual stuff goes on looks only. however, other guys who really like someone usually fall for them because of their personality, but some guys (most guys actually) who are wanting a real relationship are looking for great personality and some looks. i'm not really sure what kind of looks or traits they're wanting other than just being nice, and i've heard a lot of guys say they like the "hour glass" shape...but ya know...most guys that really like you don't look at your body too much. so just be yourself and i'm sure you'll find someone. hope i could be of some help!
