Is a good sense of humor more important than looks in someone you are dating?

When I was 19, I almost (almost - because I was too busy with studies) fell for someone who didn’t exactly fit my type, he was a bit chubby and didn’t have my preferred body type, also had a baby face, but hell, did he make me laugh everyday! Slowly, I grew to find him more and more attractive and I have refused dating to guys much hotter because I liked him so much…

I would choose someone like that over someone who’s extremely hot but makes me sad everyday.

My ex fiance, who was the hottest man - hurt my heart often during the past 1 year and made me cry almost everyday. I don’t want that to happen again. It’s not his fault, he didn’t do it on purpose but he still hurt me.

Attraction is very important but not the most important thing. If I had to choose between a guy who’s 10/10 and makes me sad and a guy who’s 5-6/10 and makes me laugh, I would probably go for latter one.

Shortly after break up at 25, when I was really heartbroken and hurt, I came across my old messages with him and it made me laugh so hard… In a way, he could even make me laugh when he wasn’t there and when I was heartbroken by another man. I haven’t messaged him I just read our old messages and cracked up.

He was amazing and whoever gets to know him will be lucky to have such an amazing person by her side.

I think that guy is still single, if girls had any brains, he wouldn’t be single.

[Tstrbrainer]

Why don't you message him then?

A good sense of humour requires intelligence and the ability to communicate. That said no girl has ever masturbated to a comedian.

[coachTanthony]

uh I guess you haven't seen Matt Rife. LOL Happens daily with him.

[abc3643]

Absolutely, yes!

You HAVE to because life is going to throw a shitload of... well, shit... your way and one key to survival is to not get overly stressed and serious about it, but to have a sense of humor when confronted with setbacks and crises.

For instance:

Dr. Smith: "Mr. Jones, the test results came back and you have end-stage cancer. I am so sorry."
Mr. Jones: "Well, at least my expenses are going to go way down!"

Mrs. Jones: "Honey, I hate to bring this up, but what do you want me to do with your body after you pass? Burial, cremation, ?"
Mr. Jones: "Surprise me!"

I think once someone passes your attractiveness threshold then humor is a great added bonus.

To me happy energy is more positive and important than good looks, cause I dated a very good looking guy with low social energy and was bored and unhappy even though there was no abuse or cheating. He just did not have the psychological vibration I want in a guy, but he was a good person, we just had nothing in common.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Well yeah, looks can fade/change with age, lifestyle, etc… funny is forever 😁😂

[savagewolf22]

Truly agree ma'am
Looks fade but sense of humour stay forever 😂

[DaveJord]

YES... but looks matter.

[DizzyDesii]

No. I mean hilarious dudes all the time. The ‘my type of cute’ ones are more rare. So im gonna look based off physical attraction and then see if he has the personality that makes him the full package. Now lets say if i met someone on here (i mean, it wouldn't be the first time)... then i’m basing it off personality first and the looks would seal the deal

[DizzyDesii]

*meet hilarious dudes

[electromagnetic]

Imagine cracking jokes about your partner being ugly and both y’all laughing 😂

I think there has to be a level of attractiveness to personality ratio. No one will ever date another person they are not attracted to. Funny or not.

[mobiusforniner]

Considering my dating life, knowing im not that hot but do have a witty sense of humor, yes.

I believe women in general are attracted to men who project optimism and happiness, even in the face of adversity.

[provokeesmokee]

For me it is.

I also just find that folks with great humour also tend to look the best.

Laughter is effective medicine, after all.

[Red-Blaze]

100% for sure yes top thing
I mean if its dating a psyco with homur or a model with no homur I take the psyco and a strap jacket

[EricSummer]

No, sorry. While a good sense of humor is a nice thing to have, it is not at the same level as her looks.

[Keishio]

I've known a bunch of funny, charismatic dudes. They're pretty much always her friend and not her boyfriend.

[OfMiceandMen]

I could not go out with someone that doesn't have a good sense of humor. These days its important to stay positive and laughing/smiling does just that.

[Nikki1989]

Absolutely, and it is not even close.

[Anonymous]

Gonna be the odd one here and say no.

i have always preferred girls who are on the more serious side.

[asphaltrhymes]

Someone who matches would be good or has similar humour to me but doesn't dominate the Convo. Someone has to dominate the Convo. 😆

[asphaltrhymes]

Or we have a fair share or maybe it's one sided but happily not grudgingly lol ,👍 and hopefully our humour aligns than not aligns ☺️

[asphaltrhymes]

In my imagination with an imagination girlfriend match lol 😆

[msc545]

important, but not as important as looks. All the women will lie about this.

[Paul09]

Yes, very , extremely important. Laughter is medicine!

[Anonymous]

Yeah. It doesn’t matter if he’s sexy, but if he’s not funny, I don’t want him

[Unknown29]

Looks definitely matter. Period. I don’t look for a sense of humor in a girl. Actually it’s a turn off for me.

[CallmeTheKnight]

Yes. It’s part of their personality and it’s a beautiful thing

[najekim]

Yup. Looks fade over time. A sense of humor can only grow more warped. ;)
