Me ugly. Me say, "Yes". Try being ugly. Rate go down hard.
by Violet on September 24th, 2009
not at all. I refuse to date "good looking" guys. They are usually douchebags
by Piratebooty on September 24th, 2009
Nope. A person can be the best looking thing going, but if that person is dumb as a box of rocks, it will make them not so hot!
by BirdsEyeView on April 7th, 2008
Good looks could never outbeat a good personality, however they're great in addition to
by BabyRoo on April 7th, 2008
Nope. :)

no +5
by Nutsy_Rail on October 24th, 2009
If you are a woman, that is all you need. Men, however, have to work hard at figuring out how to get girls to have sex with us.
by SmallTownCelebrity on October 24th, 2009
If their date is deaf...then maybe.
by AnonymousGirl on October 24th, 2009
Nope.
by SABOTEUR on September 24th, 2009
"Good looks" helps get you in the door.
"Attractive personality" (and a bit of luck) KEEPS you there.
by therock92555 on June 15th, 2008
it's cool that most of the answers here are positive and that if most people were like those who answered this question, we would have definitely have less relationship issues here in the states (or the world). the sad reality is that despite personality some guys and girls (or most of them) really don't care about personality. rather how they will get them in bed is usually at the forefront of their minds and usually after they had sex with them, personality starts playing a factor. not all women and men place personality above good looks even after years in a relationship.
so in response to your question, it depends on who you're dating and where you originally met them.
by R U Sirius on April 18th, 2008
If you look like Brad Pitt.........In fact success is guaranteed if in fact HE IS Brad Pitt.
by Jane on April 18th, 2008
in dating i would think so but not in anything long term, not if the person is unattractive on the inside
by miRi hates social norms and regulations on April 7th, 2008
not for the people i'd like to date. he can be hot as hell but he's not anything to me if he's got nothing in common w me
by Drastic on April 7th, 2008
Nopers!
by -_You Can Leave Your Hat On....- on April 7th, 2008
No Way!
Apparently - according to psychologists, after the first 10 seconds of talking to someone, we dont even really notice what they look like, but concentrate more on whats being said?
by Nursey loves the Sox on April 7th, 2008
good looks will get you in the door, but who you are as a person is what will keep you there
by cold_cut on November 28th, 2009
not even close!!
by Gigi88 on October 24th, 2009
Are you sure that's success and not simply a gonzo example of failure?
by lonelydragon on October 24th, 2009
Yes, but that doesn't mean the success will be long-term. If a really sexy guy/girl has a rotten personality, eventually he/she will drive away admirers.
by Piratebooty on October 24th, 2009
No, because looks will attract someone sexually where as actions will keep the person, unless all they are out for is sex anyway.
by ladyshakespeare on October 24th, 2009
not at all, I prefer to date a man who is not cassanova. I cant handle the arrogance and demanding nature that goes with it (I can imagine it is the same with women)
by Don Gorgeous George on September 25th, 2009
No, but they can be good enough to get a date or a one night stand.
by what on September 25th, 2009
no
by love2travel on September 25th, 2009
At first it can catch attention but if one will get to know the person better, it is always the personality that counts.

Far from it. Body language is much more important. The ability to hold your own in conversation is also pretty important. Good looks won't make up for negative body language or an inability to offer anything of interest in conversation.
by CaptainHarley adores his life penguin on June 15th, 2008
No. Good looks can attract, but it's intellect and personality which hold. : )
by lionhearth on June 15th, 2008
good looks can help but it is no guaranteed success
by JaySurf on May 17th, 2008
not at all
by RubberDuck on May 5th, 2008
No because you may have the looks, but what about the personality?
by SamPanther on April 23rd, 2008
No. Thats usually why a relationship fails isnt? Because a lot of people date for looks and nothing else. Than you get to know the person and your like "ugh what was I thinking!" Always get to know the person -_- I cant stress that enough.
by pantaloons on April 23rd, 2008
you may get alot of dates but i belive in quality rather than quanity
by Errick on April 23rd, 2008
hell no.
you need the personality. One without the other is stupid.
by Disko Fari on April 18th, 2008
It depends... not all the time, but im sure for some people yeah.
by - M.C.S. - Dave on April 18th, 2008
Success comes from within the person. Good looks are fine. But what comes from the Heart is always better....................Just my point of view tho......M.C.S.
by mizuiislife on April 18th, 2008
Maybe just in the beginning. But a good looking person with a bad attitude is not going to last long. I would rather be with an average looking man who had an awsome personality and good heart than with a good looking man who was a selfish jerk and cheated on me.
by Chezter is going to save the Redheads on April 18th, 2008
Success in quantity, but not necessarily quality
by Jed Merrill on April 18th, 2008
Pretty much yes. Unfortunately, no one is that good looking!
by Arete22 on April 18th, 2008
Yep, just as long as you don't talk and mess it up by letting your personality out.
by meowry on April 18th, 2008
Good looks will only get you but so far. And if you're socially awkward in any way, dating won't be easy.
by AnonymousGirl on April 7th, 2008
Well, my mom is a beautiful woman, and she's still with my dad. He's never cheated on her once. Then again, my dad is blind. Anyway, yeah, I think it can be possible, but I don't really think it's a good idea if that is all the relationship is based on.
by Dragonfly on April 7th, 2008
No, But its the attraction.
by Kiss A Fat Babys Ass on April 7th, 2008
No...but it's a good start
by dave1100 on November 28th, 2009
it is a good first attraction but personality will always shine through and most important in a long lasting relationship
by Millenium - The Mysterious M. . . GONE! on November 28th, 2009
Not in THIS lady's book! I try to AVOID extremely good-looking men as they tend to be so in love with themselves they CAN'T love anyone else!
by tonyjaafan on November 28th, 2009
as long as you're not a complete dummy.
by Hillbilly on November 28th, 2009
Good looks will guarantee you a date however you got to be mature to get through it.
by Anonymous on November 28th, 2009
No way ho zay!
