    Or I am just being extremely superficial and think that I am so totally shallow if I choose Look over Character =_=b

    Looks fade, character endures :p

    Of course character rules. Who would want someone who has a bad character? If you are talking about long term relationships, you are going to suffer for the rest of your life if he/she has a bad character. Character, I would say is almost permanent while looks are only temporary. If we get someone just for the looks alone, then what will happen when that person gets older?

    Average looks and good character will suffice for me but good looks and good character will be an added bonus. However, the big problem is, it is very rare to find anyone who has good looks + good character who is still available. Most are already attached unless "grabbing" someone's else gf/bf isn't an issue.

    Anyway, all this discussion are pretty subjective. Someone's else definition of good looks and good character may not be the same as another person definition of that. You may think that a particular person has good looks but someone else may not think so...

    looks won't matter when you start to get old & wrinkly & totally change (face-wise). so i'll just settle for average looks & definitely good character.

    Now.. conclusion drawn too early -nono

    Good character not equals being nice.. although nice might be one of them. Diff character attracts dff people.. dun think you can ever form a standard ideal character that represents good for everyone..

    If being nice is the ONLY character one person has, he/she has no character AT ALL. Nice is NOT a character, it's a manifestation of being considerate <-- now THAT is a character.

    So get some depth...

    Everything mix into one another. If you're at a bar and you spot a cute/hot girl/boy, then that person would step up to that s/he to get to know him or her. Looks sometimes play a role in relationships. Crushing on someone without knowing him or her is "look" first thing.

    i believe a good combination of both is needed..... if one or the other is not par than the relationship probly would not work out.... looks are what attracts a person to committing to a relationship.... and character is what keeps both parties in the relationship....

    I'm sure everybody will go for the look first then character. The looks is the main reason why someone would get close to the other, and "get to know them"

    If what you say is true, then all the ugly people in the world won't get to have a relationship, because no one bothered to get to know them! -tongue2
    Nah, not everybody go for looks.

    haha.. on the contrary, nice can be a character. Character is 'the aggregate of features and traits that form the individual nature of some person or thing' (dictionary meaning). Consideration is one trait or characteristic. While being nice, requires more than just consideration. And together, it forms a charater. But tats not the pt anyway.. :)

    btw.. that 'So get some depth...' is rather offensive.. if it was directed at me.. -tongue2

    The one who vote for number one is not telling the truth...
    Because first when you don't know about that person look comes first, but if you know that person well then character comes first..

    Haven't you heard the phrase "Nice guys never gets the girl" Although I don't completely buy into that, there is some truth behind it. If being nice is the only thing a guy can offer, most girls will pass him up for someone who is more interesting. I think in addition to being nice, a guy needs to have a little "flava" to catch a girl's attention...
