    Don't really know. What I do know is I'm ugly and married to a very beautiful woman. We've been married for 39 years and she says she still loves me. Guess hard work and honesty carries a lot of weight.

    Perhaps for superficial people but for those that seek quality relationships with love caring commitment and compromise. no.

    If the people are involved are really, really shallow, I guess it could, lol. If I were married to Tom Cruise and the marriage was awful, I'd stick it out way past its due date...what can I say? The man is gorgeous.

    I suppose it might make it last a bit longer than it might normally but I would hope a good marriage would be so much more than good looks..I think I am a nice looking woman but I have been i some situations, sick wise that all the good looks in the world would not help me, but my husband looked beyond all that, thank goodness!!

    It certainly won't sustain a marriage but it sure will make it last a little longer because of the lust. When you think about it, some marriages end because the couples lose physical interest in eachother therefore they get cranky and get divorced. So in conclusion, good looks shouldn't be the only thing keeping you in a marriage, but it certainly will help last a little longer thinking physical wise. However, nothing should ever replace true love not even true lust

    Marriage is not a game! It takes more than looks and money to make a marriage work!..

    Good looks on get people interested and turn people on. There's a lot more to being able to become a family for the rest of your life than looks and sex appeal. Complementary personality traits and ability to work out the business, personal, family, and fun aspects of your lives together is a must.

    i'm not gonna lie looks mean something to me... but once you get old your looks will go. that's why personality is more important i wouldnt wanna spend the rest of my life with a psychopath (I said something much more vulgar. I just edited this out of respect for a nun.)

    I reckon it can help but in the long run your partner is good looking who's to say no one else sees that to..

    I think there has to be more than just a physical attraction -- or it's doomed.

    Good looks help with school, friends, money, ...but saving a marriage? Nope
    One of the lovelyest girls to look I know got pretty much everything she wanted by shakin her bum and a smile.....AND she is SMART(belongs to MENSA since she was real young) but she is the most pathetic person I have ever known and I have known some really pathetic people!
    Her life is a mess and has been for years now. She tried everything to keep her marriage together including bringing in other of her friends into the bedroom to spice it up(backfired HORRIDLY). When it is broken in the begining it will not get better.
    Tom & Katie were a train wreck from the begining he is SO much older then her....and seemed a bit dirty old manish to begin with:/
    51/50 is what he is start or not.

    You need physical attraction to START a relationship. Your looks can't save your marriage or any long term relationship.

    Look how many Hollywood good looking couples have split: Tom Cruise-Nicole Kidman, Jennifer Anniston-Brad Pitt, the two most well known ones, we have other good looking but unknown ones who also already split: Demi Moore and Bruce Willis? Ashton Kutscher and Demi Moore? Good looks are not guarantees that a couple could live happily ever after.

    Look at all the pretty people that are continually getting divorced I don't think good looks helps keep relationships together.

    Looks help with initial attraction, but once you get to know eachother it's not as important.

    No, you have to be 'pretty' on the inside too, or it generally won't work. I don't think a marriage based on looks would ever work.
