I never really thought of this. One of my most important relationships was with a man that is much less attractive than me. It was sort of an accident because we met online as teens and a relationship blossomed there. When we finally met in person, well I couldn't abandon the guy for his looks!
In high-school I met a guy who I considered way more attractive, and we dated briefly in high-school and later again after college. He was a douche. He was so conceited and a horrible person. I'm not sure why I wasted my time with him. I don't think his issues were due to his looks, I think it was due to his upbringing. I dodged a bullet when I left that situation.
Generally speaking, I tend to look at the human being - the man. How does he make me feel? What does he have to offer me? Does he make me laugh? Can I see myself marrying this person? I do not place looks as a #1 priority and I see a stark contrast between me and friends who do place looks as a priority. They usually end up with good-for-nothing men who can only offer a good-lay on a limited basis.
Generally speaking I find that men who are very attractive tend to put less effort into career, self improvement, and education. I'm sure this is not across the board, but in a society where the male-female ratios are highly skewed in men's favor, attractive men tend to get lazy. They seem to do less and expect more, and I tend to stay away from them for that reason.
Give me a man of average looks who is highly successful that treats me very well, and I'll be a happy woman.
