outter beauty or inner beauty?

Tagged:  •  

Who would you choose?  Someone who is amazingly attractive with no regards to your feelings and clashing personality or someone who is amazingly attractive to you on the basis of their character.  That isn’t to say the latter is physically repellent just overshadowed by the attractive one.

Inner beauty is so much more important than outer beauty. Many drop-dead gorgeous people are absolute jerks, and are very arrogant. I would never want to be like that. I would so much prefer to be the ugliest person in the world, with a huge heart and kindness.

everyone says they'd choose inner beauty but that’s not really true is it so of the kindest people I know can't get a date cause there not a supermodel type

But there are negative aspects of outer beauty too.

1. I consider myself to be attractive. Now sure I could probably have a boyfriend easily, but so many guys would only go out with me for my looks. That isn't sincere.
2. Marriage. People who marry people because of their outer beauty usually end up divorcing because they don't love the person inside. They just love the outer appearance.
3. Outer beauty fades. You get old and wrinkly. You can get in an accident and get scars, etc. But inner beauty never grows old or becomes deformed.

for your first reason, how do you determine which guy is sincere and which isn't

That depends. And it can be difficult. Guys who greet me by saying, "Hey Cutie," or something to that effect, are usually not sincere. Those who would rather sit and talk are. Currently I just have a bunch of guy friends and I'm so grateful for them because they love me for me; not for any outer appearance. My friend Mike is there for me in all of my hard times. I have hour-long conversations with him about the problems that are currently occurring in my life. This is a sincere guy for ya.

Yea but even the one who comes and starts a sincere conversation with you was attracted by your outer beauty.

Even if that's the case, they eventually found the inner beauty. I mean let's face it: initial attractions are important. But they can either be extinguised or grow once a person starts talking.

Definately inner beauty. People don't stay beautiful on the outside forever.
