What is the first thing you notice about someone? Their clothes, their hairstyle, or maybe the cleanliness of their eyebrows? The first thing I notice is the way a person smiles. Smiles are like eyes, the windows of the soul. Except smiles reveal the tenderness of someone’s heart. Then I notice how attractive the person is. The way they dress, their hair, and their physical state. Though I, and many others, care about physical appearance, it is not the most important aspect of a relationship.

While conduction the survey, the participants talked about how there are more factors (when it comes to attraction and relationships) than personality and looks. They talked about how people care about money, social status, and other superficial conditions. I realized that they were right, what causes attraction is more than who someone is on the inside (and what they look like on the outside), it is what they represent in society and the choice if we want to be represented with them.

Then she meets another man who is normal looking but is the manager of a known popular mall and he makes a comfortable amount of money. The woman would choose the manager over the attractive man with a criminal record because she would rather have someone who makes good money and is nice versus …show more content…
Now, I know that I did not see the whole picture. There are thousands of ways that attraction develops and relationships form. Relationships are built off of looks (sometimes) and personality (sometimes), it just depends on what a person values most. I believe that (when it comes to just looks and personality) society values personality versus looks. However when it comes to relationships, as a whole, someone values looks, personality, and a person’s representation in
