I think beauty and a good body may get you the first few dates but confidence and personality get you a relationship!

Will never happen with a guy. The only way would be if the gal is thin.

I would date Sarah Silverman even though she is just cute, but has a great personality.

Guys dream: Jenny McCarthy or Zooey Deschanel.

All though, I do like Adele. I think she is hot and there is something about her I like.

Yes, my Russian friend is stacked like Drago from Rocky V and is 6'0, looks, everything but his personality is down right rotten. He can't keep a girl to save his life.

He wonders why I get more gals than him even though I am not stacked like him

I was friends with an unattractive chubby male who felt good about himself but made me feel like crap ....i'm not sure if going with the latter is always a good idea...for some reason people who aren't all that attractive or who think they are can be very judgmental and expect perfection ....which still boggles my mind

There are those chubby guys with an over the top personality. They try to overcompensate for their looks by playing the jerk angle. They think it works.


Although there is a phenomenon of slightly attractive to unattractive average girls that think they're too hot for guys and think they deserve a Brad Pitt.

For a relationship? Good personality no question...With that said, no matter how much you try to deny it, everyone is shallow to one degree or another... I would rather be single my whole life than in a relationship with a girl who resembles a troll, I also wouldn't want to be with some cruel wench with personality of a marshmallow even if she was really pretty

I'm not that type at all thinking that I deserve a Brad Pitt but you do want to be attracted to the person your with. I've been attracted to men who may be on the chubby side or even the skinny side but if their a sweetheart and we have a good vibe going that can go along way. But being very overweight and not a great looker and STILL criticizing others is not very nice or appealing personality wise.

The man has to be somewhat attractive for any woman. Gals are not saints, they go for looks too, they're just looking for the whole package. Looks aren't everything but they're still part of the deal.

No gal is going to date a really unattractive fat guy.

I'm enjoying your insights, Barcelona. So tell me, why is "cute" preceded by "just"? I mean, why isn't "cute" enough for a lot of guys? Does it really have to be gorgeous, or hot? (I'm not asking about you specifically, since you said cute + personality would work for you. I'm asking what your observation is about other guys.)
