what is a difference between someone being cute and sweet and someone being attractive? do you desire a person only in the latter case?

cute and sweet couldn't be atrative. that dog is cute and sweet. it doesn't mean the person who said that is attracted to the dog

My idea of beauty is someone who's a little exotic looking. Not too thin, but healthy.. Someone who has a lot of confidence, but not an ego.

i think attraction is different for everyone. we all dont think alike so we are not all attracted to the same things or people. beauty is in the eye of the beholder, a very true statement.

I think it's a combination of both.  Sometimes people are quick to get involved with someone who is goodlooking, but soon find out that they are a creep.  But I do think that the people who have a great personality are usually attractive to the people who are attracted to them.  Goodlooking to one person may be ugly to another person.  Example- In my opinion, my sister is attracted to the ugliest guys I've ever seen. But she thinks that they are FINE!

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder and no not every girl is preoccupied with money or beauty. Sometimes a person's personal traits will outweigh what they might lack in the looks department but I also feel that there has to be some degree of physical attraction between two people for it to go beyond just a platonic relationship. Perhaps one's  mind will appeal enough to overide that but that really depends on the situation and the individual. What is ugly to one might be beautiful to another. But may I ask what is the preoccupation with finding someone who won't base you on your looks when it is apparent that that is what your standards are based on?

I'm into this guy I thought wasn't very attractive at first but let me tell you sweetie, it's what's INSIDE that counts. You don't need to worry about other people. Just realize you have a winner! If you think he's cute then he's cute. for the record, I think this guy i'm into is GORGEOUS! different than what I'm used to? definitly! but also cute! and you have to take that into consideration. one more thing.: women will talk themselves into thinking a guy is cute BECAUSE he treats them well. I've never seen them do it because he's rich, though. it's always been about him being a  good person. so maybe in time you will really fall for him.

Being that i am an older girl with a better personality and attitude (compared to looks)---i am a bit biased.  Really its not about looks or personality, it's about how this person makes you feel.  Everyone and everything has beauty----its where that beauty is that is the most important.  If i had my choice---it would be someone who is funny and could keep me positive and happy.  (cause when i laugh, my eyes squint so i really wouldn't see what they look like all the time anyway.....lol)

"Looks" as a whole dont matter but there has to be something to attract someone. I dated a guy that wasnt that attractive BUT he had a beautiful smile and that was all it took.

For me. I notice her face first. Mostly look for some deepness (intelligence and/or intensity) in her eyes. Then how she moves. If she smiles at me. How her boobs and butt  look. Flaunting a bit says confident to me, I like that. I like down to earth, no makeup, really really long hair, interesting , smart, able to laugh easily. etc.\n\nIts different in what I like to look at for 10 seconds or when trying to make a life connection with someone. Both are nice. I love those, "hey you are very cute", "thank you" sort of interactions. 30 seconds usually but still very nice

Beauty is defined by the viewer as either appealling and interesting enough to take more time to look or whether to walk away because of our lack of attraction as to what we personally define beauty as within ourselves.\n\nIt isn't purely physical although the more attractive or beautiful one is to another does  often translate quite truly into how much attention they will receive upon first glance.\n\nWithout any physical attraction I don't believe a relationship could last and then again, there was beauty to start that relationship between the two people regardless of unattractiveness in the view of others, but not within themselves and within each other.  Attraction is both mental and physical in so many ways and even a person someone may think is "ugly" can be the most beautiful human being on the inside and out.\n\nIn todays world everyone strives for that perfect person and often the person who is perfect for them (on an emotional and physical level) and who would in fact turn out to be the most beautiful person in their life is passed by because they didnt meet the physical standards of the other person or were as you said "overlooked."  And it is sad because beauty does come from within...

I agree with you that in general, people who are good looking tend to be "shallow" and lacking in personality.  I too wanted somebody who was beautiful on the inside too, not just the outside.  Of course, you need to be attracted to that person...\n\nI can say, though, these people do exist.  My wife is very beautiful and is often told so.  But, she also has the most wonderful, caring personality and would do anything for anybody.\n\nKeep looking, and you'll find somebody.

Affection is when you care about the person, you enjoy them, you wish them the best.  \n\nLove is all that, plus you know you're willing to sacrifice to help the other person become his best, knowing that he's doing the same to you.   The other person's happiness is something that becomes as important to you as your own. \n\nAffection is when you dream about the person;   love is when you dream with the person.
