Single people can be shallow, no surprise there. We say that looks aren’t everything but they obviously matter – a lot. So what happens when you meet two people and they both seem to be a good match? Could the looks be the deciding factor? Should you pick who you are most attracted to?

The interesting thing about attraction and chemistry is that it doesn’t always have logic and reasoning. We are drawn to what appeals to us visually, but we often let this be the only thing that matters. What if the looks fade and you are left with a jerk who you can’t relate to anymore?

So what do you when you have two prospects and one has a personality more compatible to you but is not as attractive?
