Appearances make a first impression, but it wouldn't stop me from deciding to communicate. Unless it looks as though the other person is suffering from a contagious disease or covered in filth, then obviously I'd keep my distance for my health/safety, but otherwise we can still communicate. After all, appearance alone doesn't influence ideas shared.

What would stop me is if I have trouble understanding the other person, I'm in a hurry, or I find the other person unreasonable/acting like an a**.

Relationship-wise, there are billions of people in the world to choose from, you can afford to be picky about choosing the best mate. Its just a matter of what you value in a person and what flaws you can overlook, though in general certain appearances are a potential red flag for certain personality traits. The idea that opposite attracts is real, but the important thing is that said opposites must complement each other, otherwise all you'd get is a couple that becomes indecisive and unhappy over many arguments.
