Does your dates VOICE matter?

i am very auditory, a nice, masculine voice is very important to me.

Voice matters more to me a lot than physical presentation or appearance, now that I think about that. Kind of weird.

A bad voice is a reason I might not date someone. However, a good voice might make me want to go out with someone.

Yes and no.

One of the major reasons I refused to go out with a great guy while I was younger was because I didn't like his laugh.

My current guy typically has a Wisconsin accent (he's multiregional does radio/tv and can do a nonregional accent when he wants as well as a spot on southern accent). I'm from the South, and although southern accents in men typically don't turn me on at all, a Wisconsin accent is definitely not what I'm used to either and wasn't exactly a turn on. It was enough to make me a little conflicted over it, because he didn't "sound" like what I imagined as someone I'd be with, I guess? I dont know how to explain it. It was goofy and I just didn't expect loving it. But, it turned out I love him and loving his voice just came along with that.

Absolutely it matters. A low, sexy voice can have me melting and the date would be more promising right off the bat, chemistry-wise. If he had an incredibly annoying voice, I think it'd be a dealbreaker. If I don't want to listen to it for the length of one date, how could I go through a lifetime with it? It may be shallow, but this is totally an important component of the partner package for me.

If the voice is just "oh...my...gosh" then it's dumping time lol.

I find a good voice to be very important. Not so much that I have voice preferences, but if a voice grates on me, I absolutely can't see myself dating the person. I've declined a second date before partly for this reason (of course I didn't tell him that!). I like vocal partners and if your voice annoys me, it just turns into a turn-off.

some voices are sexier than others but for the most part it doesn't matter

If we had good conversation, then it would be ok.

If their voice is annoying, I can't even talk very long with them would drive me crazy too.

That is a tough one.
I don't see myself as the type of person to ignore someone over their voice
but if it really did bother me.....

It would not be a deal breaker, but would be on the overall cons list.

I don't date a lot, but I have met people whose voices I've absolutely hated. I wouldn't be able to date someone whose voice just drove me crazy, I think!

A nice voice can be a turn on.
