Which is more of a turnoff for you in a potential partner, bad looks or a bad attitude?

Im going to open this up to a poll, but I would love to see comments as well about what you think. Not putting an option for both as it will assume one is worse than the other in each person's eyes.

Bad attitude

Looks are always the first variable on attraction. But if you are around someone for work, or in a friendship group, then personality and chemistry become the dominant, more important variable than looks. You can see average looking people with really hot people because of personality and chemistry.

Therefore, a "bad attitude" is the bigger turnoff in my view.

I said bad attitude but in saying that I have met a few girls that had a bad attitude and asked them what's up or why the aggression etc. and they still are in my life today but not as partners tho but understanding their attitude because of for instance the trauma they are going through and chatting about it and understanding why the attitude it wouldn't be a turn off

[AviatorTom]

Bad attitude is a relationship killer. I can deal with less than model-perfect looks.

[PretzelBeanie]

A bad attitude, definitely. I have never been upset by someone's face so that I do not want to be around them.

[ProbablyClueless]

Attitude, for sure.

I had the pleasure of meeting an instagram model a couple years back. We started off with a great vibe, that just got progressively worse over time. I'm not exaggerating when I say that she is seriously one of the most physically beautiful women on Earth to me. But her personality is horrendous.

If she and I dated, we would have to be one of those couples that's always having sex because I wouldn't be able to stand being around her outside of that.

"bad attitude" is just the politically correct answer

nobody gives a shit about someone's "good attitude" when they have bad looks

"bad attitude" is subjective and can be corrected anyway. bad looks can not

besides you can fake your attitude but you can't fake your looks

For me, the first thing is appearance. If the outside isn’t attractive, people generally don’t care to wonder about the inside. Especially for a man, if the outside is bad, his other bad attitude don’t even get a chance to show. But if the outside is beautiful, it’s accepted at first, and later his bad attitude may be the reason it ends.

A bad attitude makes anyone "ugly" but a great attitude/personality can make anyone "attractive" the coolest or "best" Woman I ever dated was also the least attractive physically - unfortunately I was young and stupid and lost her - a regret I will always have

Bad attitude, 100%. Looks fade, but a nasty personality drains the joy out of everything. You can’t fix rude, selfish, or negative, but you can always find beauty in someone who lights up a room. 🔥🚫😊

Without a shadow of doubt... A bad/appalling attitude... An almighty Huge Red Flag.

[BullBear]

But attitude comes from confidence. No?

[Speaking_Frankly]

An ugly personality will turn a pretty woman ugly very quickly, without exception.

[nocturnalbreed]

Bad look may keep me from approaching them but not a turn off as I know what I'm getting into however bad attitude just shuts everything down. Bad look and bad attitude is a worst combo

[RavVid]

Aside from a bad attitude not being slender is a turn off to me.

[genericname85]

they're both deal breakers for "potential partner" but someone who's hot i can at least pump and dump.

[JesseP1nk]

bad attitude is always worse. Even not in romantic settings. I have people who i had to cut off from my life because of it and they still try to crawl back.

[exitseven]

Bad looks. A bad attitude can be overlooked for a while.

In reality, for most guys, it's like this:

If she looks really good, it's easier to tolerate bad attitude.

If she looks bad, her good attitude usually won't be noticed.

[Iron_Man]

Attitude is the big problem. if you have an attitude and don’t change then we have a huge problem also it’s Looks because without the Looks we won’t even be dating in the first place I have enough, bro buddies already

[Anonymous]

Id say both.

Bad looks will lead to lack of intimacy and feelings of rejection, which will ruin a relationship any ways

Funny how people underestimate bad looks

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

That's like asking me do I prefer to eat dog or cat 💩

[RedInnocent69]

Shitty attitude is always the worst
