Looks aren't everything. But it depends. If you know a person before you like them, then you're bound to be more attracted to their personality - because if you've known them for a while and they're a git...it just won't happen. BUT if you go out somewhere and there's someone there you like...it's not going to be their personality you're attracted to because you've only just met. Does that make sense? meh.
I look for someone that understands me. If he can't understand me, he wont have me. Then I look for looks. Yes they are important but he only has to be good looking in my eyes. Personality is so important to me and sense of humor. I'm a sarcastic person by nature and you will never know what will come out of my mouth. You have to throw it back to me or you'll just get mad or hate it or me. The rest just comes later.
So my list to attract me:
1. Understanding me
2. Look good in my eyes
3. Strong personality
4. Sense of humor
i have to have a guy who is interested in more than just everyday stuff.
he has to be cute in an odd sort of way.
he has to be interested in all kinds of art forms.
and he has to like my music. heh.
i tend to be attracted to younger guys.
kinda describes my boy. he is a year and a half younger than me.
don't look now, just keep watching the TV hating what's too see waiting for someone to say something that's right.
i think a lot of times when guys are really good looking it can work against them. personally, i feel intimidated if a guy is extremely attractive, and that's not a good feeling to have about someone when you're looking for a relationship.
yes, being moderately nice to look at is a plus, or good-looking in a non-conventional sort of way, but i think more has to do with the way you actually interact with the individual. some guys i know i would never date because i feel too much like a mommy to them. with others it wouldn't work because i know i'd be the needy one.
why restrict yourself to a certain type of guy? surprises come where you'd least expect them.
I can't wait until the day schools are over-funded and the military is forced to hold bake sales to buy planes.
"It's a great thing when you realize you still have the ability to surprise yourself. Makes you wonder what else you can do that you've forgotten about"
I dont restrict myself at all. I think I am pretty broad in my list. The guy I was with previously was for 7 years was an all american boy, nothing stand out about him other than he was model good looking with no tats or piercings, clean cut guy that worked as an electrician, set in his ways and unwilling to change for anything, uncreative, not a romantic bone in his body, but very loving at times and always made sure I was taken care of but also loved movies and video games and sitting at home but not really a music fan other than what I forced him to listen to or what concert I drug him too. Only thing is that he never understood me. My current interest is british raised, aussie bred, tattood, pierced, dreadlocked music lover that works for a record company and half owner in a cd shop who also plays in a band sometimes and writes me songs and poems. He is very romantic and sensitive and caring. Gives me good playful arguements ((that we so enjoy)), makes me laugh allll the time and is very unique in his thinking and way of doing things --always ready for anything. Plus he has a PHD in media and traveled the world and understands me. I can't pick a type, just a person
I think that most people go out looking for the perfect person too much. You will find the perfect person when you're least expecting it. I met my husband by accident at a time where I didn't even want a relationship. Life happens.
I have a respect for people who date someone they met over the Internet... My best friend Lauren is doing that for two years now and it just seems hard when you tell your friends how you met and they look at you like, "Is he real?" That's horrible.

i think chicks dig guys with confidence. if you have enough of that, they'll forget the other shit.
it also helps to be great looking and brilliant, but we can't all be me.

And you are exactly right. We just had a chance happening of meeting online when we were both invited to a private board and to become members. I met my current ((and hopefully forever)) guy through the internet. He has moved over here from the UK to where I live just so we can be together. We became best friends over the internet and carried on as just inseperable friends ((online of course)) for over 2 years, then this year, he was asked by his record company to come to America to train some people at the companies here, and he chose to do his training where I live. And we just fell in love. Its just love love love. More than love
That is so cool! Such a great story. I bet you hate people rolling their eyes when you tell the story. That happened to Lauren all of the time. I'd be like, "Shut up. Mattus is a cool guy and is perfect for Lauren." Why should I have to defend love?
My forevery guy and I wrote a story of when we first met, it's on my live journal.

Awww, that is cute and I think it's awesome if you can make it work out online. Why narrow your avenues? Plus Jeni, your soon to be hubby has my dream job. Can he hook me up?
