If you are developing feelings for someone BUT their physical appearance isn't what you want, would you ignore the physical part? (Page 2)

Question

Yea as what the question says...would you ignore the physical part? Why?

Ceesa · Answer

of course.. I mean the physical appearance is what make you turn around and say " oh maybe I like him\her" .. but if he's so awsome that you managed to develop feelings towards him despite the fact that you're not into his looks.. WOW

damiendd133 · Answer

mhmm most definitely

if you like someone who is just absolutely amazing but you don't like what they look like then right... hmm

well I would and I have I've fallen in love with that person too, now were not together but for different reasons

bobblehead · Answer

You are developing feelings. In the long run looks will fade and all you will have left is an amazing personality.  Do you want to spend time with the person who makes you laugh or a person just based on physical attraction?

Standingpretty · Answer

Well, physical attraction is part of chemistry and chemistry is a must, I will give them a chance but they have to have a great personality to make up for lose of attraction otherwise.

here4you · Answer

well if I was totally turned off by their appearance than I wouldn't bite but

appearance isn't top of my lists

so personality is most important to me

it would all have to do with how I'm feeling about her

xoSilverTiger · Answer

No because it would turn into a brotherly love towards him. Leading someone on isn't fair to them if you simply know how it will end.  On the plus side, though, you gain a wonderful friend <3

Evolution86 · Answer

I have ignored the physical.  Looks are nice, but it's the personality that matters.  If he's got a good personality, and is kind, caring, and compassionate, that's what matters.

GIntrovert · Answer

There would have to be some physical attraction for me.

Littletad · Answer

Why would you use a world such as ignore? If a girl is a little "heavy", but I have developed feelings for her, I could care less.

SueOdberg · Answer

If he was really ugly, or deformed, it would affect my attraction to him. I couldn't bear being with a guy whose face I didn't like.

desperate333 · Answer

If you really truly have feelings for this person then you will come to love EVERYTHING about them. Whether they are too big or too short or they have bad acne, you will stop noticing things like that and just see them for how they really are.

At least that's what happened to me.

unsmartypants · Answer

speaking from experience, physical appearance does matter.  you can only ignore it for so long.  I was in a 4 year relationship that I tried to make work solely based on personality and morals... in the end it became difficult to even kiss him because I wasn't physically attracted to him.

Elle86 · Answer

If you truly have developed feeling for him you won't care what he looks like, that is genuine attraction. I am in a relationship with someone who isn't exactly the most fit person, but I don't care. If you look past his physical appearance then your relationship is already off to a good start.

whatsgoingon · Answer

This is an unrealistic question. It's human nature to need some degree of physical attraction. Don't call people vain or shallow for it. And don't try to make yourself sound so great like you'd ignore it. Nobody can ignore it if they think their partner is ugly. Be real. Why pretend?

Germangenius · Answer

yeah, I'd ignore the physical part. seriously. you can weigh 500 lb and look like a man, the right person is still gonna think the sunishine 's out your ass.

teenytnytina · Answer

I would like to know how you ignore the physical part?  I have a good friend and we have lots in common and I enjoy even being around him but I am not physically attracted to him so there is no way I could ever be with him.  When I look at someone I am attracted to there are feelings that just happen, how do you create them?

what-do-guys-want · Answer

To me, when I am developing feelings for a guy, they become a lot better looking in my eyes the more I like him.  so if he had a great personality and was decent looking he would be perfect.

justme91 · Answer

once the feelings start, the way that they look becomes irrelevant. It's only on the 'getting over it' part that you realise what you fell for. . .LOL :D

xxgaylexx · Answer

if you already hav feelings for the person then you are obviously attracted to them in some way I mean unless theyv been walkin around with a bag over their head youv seen them to hav feelings for. obviously if there's a major issue with looks then you should make sure that they are romantic feelings rather than brotherly/sisterly feelings which are obviously different.

De3pFr3eZ · Answer

Does the looks of this person have to do with being out of shape by any chance?  If so your not alone, that is my biggest pet peeve when it comes to looks.  Try to see if their interested in changing their looks or if their happy being lazy an out of shape.  Be honest. Tell them you have standards...everyone has them but not everybody talks about them!  Good luck!

RedBubbleZzz · Answer

yeah I would def. ignore that part ,  because if I love him then I see him as perfect ! and btw it happened to me before , and after we broke up I started seeing him "ugly" again =D

Rei02 · Answer

As long as both hearts are connected, it won't matter.

Anonymous · Answer

My best friends mama always used to tell me and her that looks aren't everything, but they are something.  You don't wanna be in bed with somebody you can't stand to look at.

pr3ttybr0wn · Answer

i probably wouldn't even develop feelings for them. I'm more likely to enjoy them as a person and like them as a friend, but not see them romantically

alemarie · Answer

yes bcause if ur really like their personality then it shouldnt b a problem...u like them 4 who they r, not 4 their appereance...

n3wgrass · Answer

Yeah, to a certain extent.  If the girl's appearance is way below average, I don't think I could ignore it.

jacquesvol · Answer

Up to a certain degree: I'd accept easily her not having a perfect body or face of course, but not real anorexic underweight or extreme obesity for instance.

nikita · Answer

it depends how bad the physical part is though. For example, if they have bad style, I would probablly help re-vamp it by taking them shopping.

sef0181 · Answer

Unless it had something to do with hygiene. Although, hygiene stems from their personality so it seems it wouldn't be too much of a problem.

Reeses-pieces777 · Answer

I honestly would have to tell him to do something if he has a bad sense of style, not in a mean way but I'd still let him know what my preferences are

MrTinker · Answer

Ignore thre physical part if her heart is true - your body is a shell, your heart and should matter no it's vessal...

MissKarolina · Answer

If I like the personality, I also like his physical appearance, because if person is beautiful inside it makes him beautiful and outside.

ixi10 · Answer

I can't be with someone that I'm not attracted to. It just wouldn't work out

Jpalms56 · Answer

If I have feeling for them then look don't matter..only what I feel for em..im actually surprised people put No

scarlett1129 · Answer

If I'm already developing feelings for them, for me it means it's too late to stop it. So I would ignore it.

Sydnor · Answer

Aren't women normally guided by their feelings, anyway? ;)

The_Box · Answer

You can redefine your physical appearance preferences if you like the person. It's not hard.

Anonymous · Answer

yes because I started with my boyfriend last year and trust me I told all my girls that he was not my type and I don't like him like that but since he was so sweet I said what the hell let me give it a try it took me months to actually like him but the weird thing is I find him so attractive now I don't know how it occurs I feel like personality overcomes appearance even though now he changed a lot in personality but that's besides the point and I know others it has happened to

HaleyElizabeth · Answer

just ignore it because it doesn't really matter if you have feelings for that person

drakal76 · Answer

Appearance is not everything. The emaotional connection (to me) is what counts the most.

will79502 · Answer

u don't toss the whole looks thing like  i know this on girl that look like a angel but all ways smiles CREEPY

Anonymous · Answer

Looks aren't everything; it really depends on how bad you think they look v.s. how much you like them. I would at least give it a chance.

emzy-89 · Answer

looks fade but character and personality are forever.

Synchronize · Answer

Im not that handsome or muscled guy. I know and accept this. She ignores it. If you are honest against him/her everything may happen

Anonymous · Answer

If I was not sexually interested in them, I would not be able to ignore the physical part.

bambi_93 · Answer

well if your falling for someone.. at least in my case, then the person only becomes all that more attractive to me, even if others say ew or what are you thinking by liking him.

physical appearance doesn't matter to me at all

csorce10 · Answer

if someone is decent looking and has a magnificent personality that you can love then physical appearance makes little or no difference

jenn33 · Answer

they have to be at least somewhat attractive to me...well-groomed, clean, not fat

Labonna · Answer

there would have to be some kind of physical attraction, but personality is far more important and looks fade anyways.

xox_sugarlips_xox · Answer

phisical attration is definitely a big thing for many people, but once you devoloppe feelings for the person underneath the looks it no longer seems to matter.

shyguy94 · Answer

to looks don't really matter. like this girl I'm trying to go out with is not hottest girl in the world but I still like her.

Anonymous · Answer

I won't develop feelings if the physical appearance isn't what I want.

If you have feelings for someone, then there must be some physical attraction somewhere right?

I'd say to an extent. looks aren't everything, but they do make things that much easier! :)
