I think people mostly end up with partners in the same sort of looks and brains league as themselves. I think we should probably all just be colour coded and paired off accordingly.
Exactly.
If you are a looker, you will always earn.
A pretty but can't hold a meaningful conversation or a really ugly face with a lot to talk about... If we are talking those extremes then it would have to be neither else there would be no chemistry. Also I find that looks, personality and intelligence are kind of linked.
A conventionally pretty face that is vacant isn't actually that attractive but an average face but charisma and intelligence makes the person much more attractive.
In principal its no contest, its brains over looks for me as I'd get bored very quickly otherwise. But you need to find them attractive too else that wouldn't work. I mean if they are repulsive to look at then yer screwed.
The answer is a bit if both or none I'm afraid.
I'm aware this goes against the premise of the question, but that's my answer none the less.
And cash is meaningless, all material things are. I've been from rags to riches and back again. Doesn't make you happier as such. As long as you are comfortable then that's what's important (being broke isn't healthy and gravitating towards money is deeply unhealthy). With cash, well life is what you make of it.
It's an odd image.
Me, to live in a big house with an aston Martin in the drive or a council house with a 10 year old Peugeot 205 in the drive with a thick women who can't even iron a shirt.
Difficult but I think brains would have the edge.
I can't think of anything worse than passing my life with an idiot.
What if they were just average intelligence? The op never mentioned that the person had be an idiot or thick.
of person you'd want as a phone-a-friend on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire.
However, as loving and intelligent as he is, he has about as much common sense as an ESN donkey.
His saving graces are his good humour, the fact that he can look at me in a certain way and I'll melt,
and his ability to make all the green-eyed women at parties look at me with uncontrolled envy.
I work at a uni and know many super intelligent professors. With them often intelligence and a good sense of humour have an inverse relationship.
