My point is that, in my opinion, personality doesnt matter without at least decent looks. And I honestly believe that prettier people can get away with much more than less attractive folks. Also, I can't prove it based on my expierence, but I feel like many people would choose someone with worse personality if they were higher on the looks ladder. When things go south on the couple, physcial attraction is very often the only thing that keeps the two of them "hooked". I mean even on this forum in the "divorce" section we can find many broken marriages when one party says "but I'm still attracted to him". That proves my point.
If personality doesn’t matter without decent looks, then how are average and below average looking people ever get into relationships? By this logic they are doomed. But it simply isn’t the case. People of all kind of looks enjoy relationships. Plus looks are subjective. Who is going to be a judge of who looks good and decent? It’s very subjective and largely depends on cultural traditions

Tinder is largely a hook up casual encounter site in the US. I don’t know if it’s something different in Poland. You used example of Tinder and that’s the one I commented on.
Thanks for this!
