How honestly important is it that your partner is typically attractive (in the face)?

Does your attraction to someone depend on things other than looks? Can your attraction develop towards someone you aren’t that instantly sexually attracted to?

(Inspired by MAFS)

It's very important to me, I won't kiss a face I don't want to look at.

Attraction can grow from personality & getting close to someone.

On here though it's harder the face is usually the last thing you see.

Facial attraction is essential for me. Perhaps even more important than sheer physical attraction.

A good balance of both is required in a partner.

Yes secondary attraction is quite common for me, once I get to know someone I often find them irresistible & wonder how come I didn't notice them earlier

Physical attraction is the primary driver. It's an instant thing, the 'spark' or "wow factor".

Not saying personality cannot become attractive but until you interact with someone you can't witness their personality.

No one had ever walked down the street and thought "look at the personality on him/her" and felt attraction. Think most of us have had furtive second glances at the "beautiful people" though and felt very attractive.

So yes physical attraction is very important.

Facial attraction is important for me. That’s not necessarily about traditional good looks but I have to find them attractive to play.

A part of that attraction though will also be contributed by their personality, humour and approach.

Agree with this, facial attraction has to be there, but someone could be gorgeous with a personality of a potato which makes them not attractive then, good looks and good personality for the win, x

Finding someone attractive and being attracted to them are two different things. Being pretty sparks an initial attraction but that can quickly dwindle if there's nothing else they can offer.

How someone looks facially is important - it can add to the attraction or completely detract.

Attraction can grow through personality and connection too but I don’t think either of us would choose a hot body over a hot face…

It’s highly important to me.

I’m quite happy to be called shallow for wanting to be facially attracted to someone. I find that I can’t kiss someone I’m not attracted to in a way that’s arousing. It feels more like taking one for the team. And I gave that up a fuckin long time ago.

I'd say it's pretty important but not the be all and end all. I prefer a good personality over looks, and go for a mixture of the both.

I would however stress that even though someone may not be to my liking physically, they can often have something about them that turns me on that I would potentially overlook in others.

I missed the second bit of the question. Its definitely possible to develop attraction to someone I wasn't immediately attracted to. I don't remember being attracted to Mr KC until I was and I can't pinpoint when or why something changed.

Immediate attraction is real, however I can feel deeply attracted to a person overtime, for who they are when they're with me.

On the other hand, I've been very attracted and involved sexually, only to turned completely off later by their disposition.

It’s essential that I’m physically attracted to them (both face and body) but physical attraction isn’t the only thing that matters. They also must be a decent person, good sense of humour, fun to talk to/spend time with, good in bed and well dressed. Longer term, they also need to be driven/ambitious, have similar morals and interests… I could keep going I also think it’s possible to build or lose attraction to someone as you get to know them. But I think sexual chemistry is either there or it’s not.

I've met people that are 10/10 initially in looks the I wouldn't touch with a bargepole.

Conversely I met people that may not be conventionally attractive that are very, very shaggable because they have the right personality.

And some have both looks and the right attitude/personality.

Yep I agree. Wealth or status doesn’t bother me in the slightest but ambition, drive, having a skill or trade, showing commitment to something you’re passionate about and having your shit together are all very attractive qualities.

A face I find attractive is essential. And I probably do, in general, gravitate towards conventionally attractive people, but I guess the majority of us do as there's a reason conventional standards become such!

In general, I'll know if I fancy someone pretty quickly. I can definitely find people more attractive over time as I get to know them, but there will have been a base-level of attraction from the beginning. I can't think of anyone that's gone from zero to swoon...

I think you can a huge amount about someone’s personality by their face, their eyes where they look - up, down, unable to hold eye contact etc.

Classically beautiful people aren’t always attractive , pretty privilege often results in not so nice , and not so smart people

I have a slight disconnect between aesthetic attraction and sexual attraction. The latter has multiple elements that make it up. I need to be intellectually attracted to someone, and there also needs to be chemistry, alongside finding them physically attractive for sexual attraction for me.
