I havn't dated a lot. I'm much like a basement gamer personally. Additionally, I can't stand people who put everything into looks. I find them rather shallow. I'm fairly certain it's about the personality for me, or rather, how a person is in general that matters. Why? Because my girlfriend is a gamer, just like me. And that was how we got together in the first place, not by finding each other attractive (Lookwise), at least not originally.
This thread makes me recall a statement made by a guy once. He told my girlfriend that his gal' was a model, so she looked better than her. It made her feel a little insulted and I almost told the guy that she was studying to become a scientist, which makes her win by default because his girlfriend is "just a model" That would've been somewhat cruel, I realize. But the way some people care so much about looks is rather absurd to me. To clarify, I never told him that. I told that to my girlfriend, to comfort her a bit. It seemed to cheer her up.
Eitherway, I'm pretty sure she feels the same way about personality, which makes us connect even more I reckon, as I'm probably below on the looks scale, hah.
