how important is physical attraction in Love?

Hello physical attraction is a basic factor no doubt but not very important, there are so many other factors to be taken in to account.. Thanks for sharing. Welcome always. Cheers. Professor

is important but not a main factor^^ the most important is how the person cares for you, how the person makes you feel, the love the person has for you^^ also if is sweet to you, romantic, if you are important to him, i mean his first priority. about girls look more for inner beauty than guys maybe thats true but it also depends of the girl and of the guy. it depends of the person personality. there are also guys that care more for inner beauty than for physical one even if they are not easy to be found ^^ ahah

The guys I have been in love with, I have never been physically attracted to. And the guys I have been physically attracted, I have never been in love with. :)

Good day to you Crazy_Poster, For me, physical attraction is just a factor to be consider but not a factor that hinders to feel the love. However, as they say, if you happen to met somebody, the feeling that you might have will starts somehow in physical attraction. And this is one of the reason why you want to befriend to that person. To know him or her much better. To get in touch with him or her more often. Hence, you feel a more deeper feeling rather than friendship. And that is what you called "love". Nevertheless, as I've said, it is just a factor. If you really love the person, no matter what he or she looks, as long as, you have the right feeling, then physical attraction is not a hindrance at all.

Physical attraction is usually the first reason how you get to notice your partner. Then when you actually get to know the person, you develop love. Love is accepting even the things that you don't actually like about the person you love. Some developed love with their partners though initially they are not physically attracted to them. But only few falls in this category. The chemistry or physical attraction should be strengthened if that is the beginning of a relationship. But I may say those who learned to love their partner and with common interest and faith are always the happiest. Those founded in physical attraction... well our physical beauty fades. Thus, it is not a good foundation for love.

Physical attributes. These are the first you notice in a person. It's the key to open the door of one's heart. Beyond that you have to make your love grow.

yes of course physical attraction is most important in love. even one can say it's the most important aspect between the two lovers. according to me it's also important in marriage life also. i think boys/men physical attraction is more than women. women seems to be able to love the inner person.

Physical attraction is a bonus in love. It is not what is important or necessary to the relationship. It what you have inside that makes your love shine through.

yes iam also thinking is also is not neccessary in love.If there is physical attraction then it is not become one in true love so you need to be know that physical attraction is not there at true love.

I think physical attraction is important because it is what drives you to like a person and eventually love the person. SOme might say that it was their choice or they felt love or they saw the real person etc, but believe me when I say that it all starts and develops as a physical attraction. What happens is a chemical reaction of your body when that person is around, which in turns triggers different areas of our brains and makes us decide, like and love someone

I think physical attraction is important at first, but then there needs to be something else afterwards - things in common, friendship, enjoying spending time together, etc. I agree that how someone looks is more important for men, as I think they like to be seen out with a pretty girl.

I think that physical attraction is as important as love at first sight only. I mean if you really have feelings for that someone else, who cares what he/she looks like?? Because to you, he/she is the most perfect being but of course if he/she looks good, then it can be considered as a bonus..Heh :P

Mmm...how to explain...for me, physical attraction will be considered. At least my partner should fit my eyes. if she makes me nasty or even scare me, how can we live in the same room? So I should admit I can't be spiritual enough to ignore physical appearance. But I don't think physical attraction is important. if only her appearance doesn't disgust me, I think inner condition is the most important.

physical attraction makes your LOVE on FIRE!!! It is very, very important

I don't really think physical attraction is important; but it is a factor in relationships or love for most of us. Physical attraction mostly leads or draws people into loving that person more especially guys. I think most of us would look at physical appearances first before the inner. I'm referring to the bird's eye view, our eye sights. But when you actually get to know that person more, you'd either think he is exactly the one you want or you'd go the other way by saying, next please. Lol

Well for me emotions are much important than the physical appearance in any relationship. May be looks does play some part for initial attraction between the the two, but they cant help in a long run. So in a long run for a relationship,.. emotional attachments is more important than physical appearance.

I believe we respond quicker if physical attraction is immediate. However a person does not have to look good to be great. Their inner beauty could be so attracting that the eye would be so blind. Some people only go for beauty and as a matter of fact I have a friend, who she is not ugly but not so great. She does have a nice looking attractive body, anyways she says she cannot date ugly because she cannot see all her with all that ugly. hmmm, maybe that is why she is always single. It is my personal opinion to contradict my girl friend because if she were with an ugly but beautiful inner beauty person. I think he would make her even more attractive.

Usually when you love a persona romantically, there is physical attraction, if there was none, there would be no pint in getting together, you might as well just stay very good friends only, because you would get love from your mother, father, brother and sister and other relatives without the physical attraction side... :) xx
