What do girls mean when they say looks aren't everything?

[IsaiahM]

I was talking to my friend and out of no where she just tells me looks aren't everything

[Sekrett]

It means they are LYING!

Its just crap girls say, when have looks not mattered to girls? How many girls who are 7 have you seen with guys who you think are 2? Looks are everything, how many girls would give a guy time of day if they didn't find him attractive. BS! Of course looks matter. Again how many girls who are 7 have you seen with guys who are 2?

Read other answers on GAG and see how many mention looks. Some girls simply delude themselves somehow they are better than guys because apparently looks aren't everything to them. And yet if she had a choice between a very attractive guy and an average looking guy who would she chose?

Also many girls would simply say that to make their friends feel better. It is absolutely 100% not correct, looks are everything. That's the first thing we see in opposite sex, that's the first things girls see and what. And if you want to take that literally is a blatant lie, just BS. She probably simply said it to make you feel better, to boost your confidence.

It means a girls are attracted more to a guy that fun, cool, funny and interesting than to a guy with just good looks.

p.s. Girl's little secret; this does not mean girls aren't attracted to looks anyway. It just means they will still look for a good looking, who is also fun, cool, funny & interesting.

Looks are still a pretty big deal to them. Any girls that tell you different are dunking their heads in PC juice or not know that they aren't that attractive themselves.

out of nowhere? no idea lol.

in general tho, when we say that, we try to emphasise on the value of a guys heart. we love a guy with a stunning personality. its also reflects on his outer appearance- somehow makes him more physically attractive. looks will fade one day, personality is there to stay.

in my opinion, a real man is defined by his capacity to love<3, not by the size of his biceps

It means - looks aren't everything.

What were you guys talking about? It may not have "come out of nowhere".

I care way more about personality. Looks are a bonus, for me... not a standard. I've dated guys that I didn't think were attractive because I really liked their personalities. And the more I got to know them, the cuter they became in my eyes. For a while, anyway :-P haha!

[ya_ya_ask_already]

It means just like it sounds ... looks aren't everything. Basically it's like saying that there are other important factors when choosing guys. If the guy is gorgeous, but a jerk, then he is not a good catch. However, if you have a decent looking guy who is great inside as well, then you have the perfect catch.

[XRabbitHeartX]

It means us girls aren't just interested in the way a guy looks. We look for things in his personality too. There's no point in dating a guy who's handsome but treats people badly and has bad characteristics. His looks won't be enough to make up for his sh*tty personality.

A good personality and behavior , as well as charm all make a person more attractive.

It doesn't have to come from the physique exclusively ;)

It goes both ways, someone who isn't a nice person, acts like an ass will be seen as very unattractive to a lot of people and the looks won't even matter that much anymore, even if they're really good-looking.

Ugly on the inside shows !

[martyfellow]

Most girls are pretty fed up with guys evaluating them only on their looks, without even knowing them at all.

So if you were staring at her, or commenting right away on her looks instead of making conversation about something..ELSE..

She was already a little ticked off at you..so from her perspective, this comment didn't come out of the blue..

What do girls mean when they say looks aren't everything?

Likely it means there are some factors looks can't compensate for and there are some factors that can compensate for looks in essence a gal will date a guy she doesn't find physically attractive.

[lauramor]

Because ifyou have two guys to choose froma nd one is hot but dumb and the other one is not hot butfunny and caring and good stuff like that the girl would go for the second one if she's smart

[unighted]

that the guy could be perfect looking but an a**hole to so I wouldn't be attracted to him. A guy who is not very good looking but is very nice could be really attractive just because of the way he is

[Stacyzee]

If she was directing it to you she meant you are not the most attractive, but there are other qualities that can make you great.

[CRamos3]

Personally - I don't buy that statement. There is SOMETHING about an individual that attracts you to them. There has to be something that is attractive. Looks may not be "everything" but they sure are something...

[kangaru]

when we said that it means we don't judge a person solely based on looks , yes at the first impression but not after.

[JamielovesKU]

Meand looks can be deceving meaning it may look good but it isnt

[ras144]

Meaning, even if you're ugly, we'll love you for your inner beauty.

[tiredofwaiting]

It means if you have a nice personality looks won't matter so much.

[dommage]

it means that if a guy is cool or nice or attractive mentally looks wouldn't matter

[McQuacker]

It means looks are everything

[Anonymous]

She's saying looks are the first thing she notices, but she wants other stuff too like personality and kindness

[Anonymous]

It means looks aren't everything. They're important but it's not everything

[caligirl3]

it means that looks aren't anything

[johari]

Personalty is a fsctor too……
