True or False: The most important factor for a successful relationship is physical attraction?
The Key to: A Successful relationship is very simple...
It must be 2 things.
- Healthy
- Fulfilling
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The key to a healthy and fulfilling relationship requires:
- Conscious, joint vision for relationship
- Continuous realization of vision
_________________________________________________________________________________
It's that simple. However, in all relationship visions, no matter the couple, there are common characteristics that MUST be made habit.
People have said communication is key. @sparkie460 No being and staying on the same page is what it means to be in harmony. Communication is but vehicle that helps that. Decision making is another. It has been said physical attraction is key. @Lionman95 Once again what this person is really saying is they need to be on the same page. All of this is included in the vision. @DizzyDesii @Brainsbeforebeauty @Apple1996 Certainly women can attest to the fact that some men will not commit even if you are beautiful. Physical connection is but one aspect of the vision. The couple must agree on all of the vision. If they don't, it will manifest in negative ways. The only time agreement isn't needed is when one party submits entirely to the other and even then that requires consent.
100% of relationship problems are due to not creating a joint vision or not sticking by that vision.(aka not being on the same page) People usually talk about what they want; the issue usually is they don't talk about who they are and who they must become. The ones who want the same thing and are already the people that can rightly have and maintain it will win.
You have to really be or become the people who rightly would have a healthy and fulfilling relationship.Cheating for instance, is a mental habit that must be altered because it causes disharmony. Lack of courtesy is another. Anything that makes the partner feel like you dont care is undermining the harmony. Tone of voice could literally be one. Lack of persistence. Negative mental attitude. Lack of mental discipline.
Most important factor: Your ability to be in harmony or on the same page with one another is the most important factor. It covers all factors. But if you want me to pick one thing within being on the same page; desire for the unique relationship would be it. I don't think it can be any more concrete than that without making it subjective.

Dude, I like you, but if that picture is your ex. . . the bro code just went out the damn window!

Some people like Kendell Jenner might have obvious physical beauty, but people like Michelle Obama or Judge Joe Brown have obvious intellectual beauty, and people like Sasha Cohen or Abe and Preach have obvious psychological beauty. Bill Gates and Mark Zuckerberg have personality appeal and I value that more than elite models on the runway.

Nah I could be with a guy that's really ugly and still love him/have a good relationship. Looks definitely ain't everything

Physical attraction might help you “get “ someone but it takes way more than that to “keep” someone in your life..

Well for me at the start if there is no physical attraction there is no relationship... is it the most important thing? Sometimes yes, sometimes no. But it must be there on some level.

no. this is talking about the stimulation to the brain from inputs from the eyeballs. The Bible calls this out in Genesis 2/3 and it's the first thing "he saw her!!!"... dang Jews are smart! But what does that really mean? Maybe there is a very strong connection from visual/biological into our mating part of our brains... which is apparently the size of a walnut... go figure! This may be true for most, many and it is certainly important sensory input to our brains. But it isn't the only one.
The ear input is also very very important and I'd say more so. Got two of each so they are both very important. If someone is physically attractive but the sound is awful, I'm not interested. But the opposite, if they sound good and there is something wrong with visuals, I may be able to work around that. For example... lets say a partner is physically injured terrible... no longer looks like that girl in the photo, God forbid. I can handle that in many cases.
Visual and sound inputs come from within... you can see the "energy" projected from someone coming from within... their spirit... and that is important. the sound as well, that says where their heart and mind is and is very important. The inside is important more than the outside.
And now... we probably have to start talking about bacteria we can't even see... What does it mean to love our partners bacteria, not just all their cells? More on that another time... out of scope... But yes, that bacteria is very important to relationship!

False because that's not who the person really is it's the person on the inside that I go for I want to know how confident she is how smart she is how wide she is how happy she is because all that radiates to the outside the outside is just all an extra bonus but that's not who they truly are if you're just going for the person on what they look like a relationships not going to last when I find true beauty on the inside I can find and see the true beauty of who that person is on the outside like they say beauty is in the eye of the beholder but if you know who that person truly is on the inside she's beautiful on the outside too for me anyway I'm not saying for anybody else because everybody else most people look just at the outside that's all they care about

I´d say true because if most of the other factors fall apart if there is no physical attraction. I think there are visible and invisible factors that play a role in a relationship. Physical attraction is at least one of the most important because it´s one of the key factors to avoid cheating. Communication, personality and many those factors only play a role if one partner thinks the other one is also physical attractive. If I think my partner is ugly chances are our communication isn´t that great not the other way round.
Physical attractiveness is the first thing people notice when they meet each other.
Though it doesn´t sound great to some I think it´s true. -
A few years ago I was in a 5 year relationship with a lingerie model. Drop dead gorgeous but try getting some help around the house. Some days if I had to leave work early I'd ask the night before if she could take the bins out and sure enough when I got home it hadn't been done causing rubbish to pile up. Majority of the house work was done by me because i'm pretty sure she thought that her sleeping with me was her gift to me and that was enough to keep me satisfied. Eventually the minor annoyances became bigger and outweighed how hot she was because of all the little disagreements over general upkeep. As much as physical attraction is important it needs to be paired with a few other qualities

I think it is more important for a man than a woman. At least, initially. Men are visual creatures, and we have to do something to create interest. I have a pretty good body for my age, but wish I had a body like that picture. Too old for a bikini, but can still wear a tankini.

False. Of course you need to be initially attracted to the person to start up a relationship but that's not the most important factor for a successful relationship. Communication is in my opinion because the truth of the matter is we all are gonna get old one day and our looks will fade but if that communication is there and great then the relationship will not falter.

That's the most important for the first few months. After that a lot of other factors take priority. But of course you can't get to that until you get through those first few months, due to the mostly linear nature of earth time - all relationships lasting over a few months still went through the first few months, but not all relationships that last the first few months will then proceed to last longer. So i picked True.

To have a successful relationships, you should have trust, respect and an emotional connection where you can both be yourselves and talk about anything. Being attracted to eachother in both ways together with physical attraction is what makes a happy balanced long lasting relationship. But it takes both partners to maintain the relationship. Fuel it, with you efforts of love and great care!

True.
I cannot speak for other but I can confidently say a lot of people would not even entertain the idea of being I bc a relationship with someone without being physically attracted to them.
Sure, personality, communication, honesty… those are all great and that but those are only fostered once someone is physically attracted to the next person and willing to foster the rest. -
That might be useful for the initial attraction, but for long term there are other factors that come into play that are a bit more important, such as a great personality and being a kind and gentle soul. You know what they say about being happy in a marriage...

I think great communication is key. A good personality is needed to maintain a successful relationship. And physical attraction is often the initial attraction but also the occasional need to keep things intact.

It is very important to be attracted, but it def isn't the most important factor.. it is how well you both go together and treat each other that is the most important thing.

People can deny it all they want, but the fact is that physical attractiveness is always the determining factor when it comes to the selection of a sexual partner.

The physical attraction only gets you so far in a relationship. The person can be gorgeous and be a pill, which in the end doesn't last.

Falstruehood. Trufalsy. Physical attraction and sex is the result of subconscious attraction.

I would say it’s pretty important but not the most important
- 3.3K opinions shared on Relationships topic.
That iscertainly one of the most important factors. If a woman does not find a man physically attractive, this is almost always the end of things except friendship. Modern women want male models, and there are not enough of those guys to go around.

personality vs looks.
For me personality wins out every time.
You have to like the person that you are with.
