Is it true that girls . . .?
1. . . .don't care about looks? As long as he is VERY well dressed and good personal hygeine and all that good stuff. How important are looks?
2. Do pretty girls only like handsome guys?
I'm attractive but I'm no model (of course) but I read inn my Psychology class that people tend to date people that are on the same "attractive level" as them. 7s date 7s. 8s date 8s and so on. The thing is that I dress very, very nice and REALLY attractive girls like me but I think that if we date that we will break up because someone who is just as attractive as her will come along and still her from me. (this has happened before).
P.S Say what you really feel, don't give me that "it's what's on the inside that counts "crap cause there are some guys that you wouldn't date no matter how nice they are.

"P.S Say what you really feel, don't give me that "it's what's on the inside that counts "crap cause there are some guys that you wouldn't date no matter how nice they are."
but honestly I think it does come down to how well you can treat a girl, and how that girl respects and recognizes a good man.
It's hard to find girls that are not pressured by her friends to date a man based on looks.
Luckily I found a girl who's a 10, and I'm probably a... 5... lol

1. I'm not a girl, but the answer is clear, and no, they do care about looks. I've had several girls tell me that they basically categorize guys in the "friend" and "more than a friend" category when they first meet a guy. Look around, take note at how quickly girls are to say how hot a guy is upon first looking at them. Sometimes, it's just subconsciously done.
2. No. Of course not. I've seen some guys that have gotten girls who look like models, which only made me question "WTF?"
The deal breaker is personality, most of the time. No matter if it has to do with boy and girl, or vice versa. Sometimes, girls will overlook looks if they're not too impending on overall attraction, and go for the guy with the good personality. Hey, I know, you didn't want me to give you the cliched answer, but I at the very least provided you with just more than that. Good luck sir.

Hey I'm taking psych class too! -except in high school.. AP psych.. :/-
Anyways, about the question:
The initial attraction is in fact your looks. Girls, especially the younger ones (not to mention the high school ones) like to gossip about which guy they know is the hottest.
But when it comes to dating, I would say
(1) The guy can't be fat/obese/whatever.. at least they need to be slightly toned.
(2) Hygiene is SO important! Even if a guy is super hot.. if they have bad hygiene.. that's a huge turnoff.
(3) Don't sweat over that stuff you learn in psych.. that's the theoretical approach to things.. and things in real life may not always turn out the same way.
(4) Personality does count. Looks count too, but less important to personality.
I'd say as long as you stay true to your description, you'll have no trouble attracting girls. Keeping them? Well, treat her like a queen and I'd say you won't have trouble either.

yes, we care about looks, you can't have a relationship if you aren't physically attracted to that person. well dressed and good personal hygeine is a bonus (and may work for some girls) but looks are important.
from what I've seen, it's pretty much always 2's date 2's 8's date 8's... unless there's an alterior motive.... (like money, or connection to someone else).... but you can't say "Oh, I'm definately a 3, so I can't date a 7" because you are only going to see yourself through your eyes, no matter what. Go for someone you have a connection with, someone who is attracted to you, and you are attracted to them, they wouldn't be attracted to you if you wern't good looking ;)
you can't let one incident let you down, there may have been other reasons other than "more attractive"

looks do count. but im not sure about number 2. i'm attractive and i have had some of the most ugliest boyfriends. and i really liked them because they were sweet and convincing. i mean like seriously i've been told i have an eye for hideous guys. i think 2's wrong. as for 1...i believe it depends on who you're looking at and how that person is. and your personal interests of course. but about a girl(8) leaving a guy(8) for another guy(8) it could happen. and it also depends on how the other guy is. i base it on personality. sorry if its in the "it's what's on the inside that counts" category. :( but i hope i helped at least a little.

For number 1: All girls are different. They all have their own opinions about who's cute or not. One may think so while the other doesn't. Guys should be themselves. But yeah, personal hygiene is VERY IMPORTANT. so keep that in mind. lol.
For number 2: Not necessarily. Not all pretty girls fall for the hot guys. Actually, most look for the personality. But looks are a PLUS, I'm not gonna lie. =)

Girls of course care about looks. The difference between men and women are men are much more attracted to physical appearance when hitting on a women -- whereas, women can easily be swayed by charm, humor, a witty personality, confidence, etc. once engaged in a conversation.

Let's see it depends, if a guy is hideous..nasty hygiene..smells bad yellow teeth of course a female would go for a good looking guy. Now in day's everybody has there own taste..in guys. I see really beautiful girls who are with semi decent guys..could be about money..could be they just have that look to them..nice clothes and smell..I mean looks do count but really..now in days...I believe it's mostly about personality..and the materialistic things..
For example; my friend she is absolutely pretty, and her boyfriend he is alright in my eye's..but most girls think he's fine..or alright. It's just that everyone has there own taste in men.

of course girls care about looks
the initial attraction has to be there
all girls don't find the same thing attractive though
some girls like really buff guys, while other girls think 8 pack/ vein popping maddness is gross
it all depends
some girls think less hot guys are hot
but there's the media thing
and we want our friends to think we're capible of attracting really hot guys
so it depends

1. Girls kind of care about looks because that's where they see if they are interested, but it's not all about that. for me looks aren't as important.
2. No.
