What do you look for?

[spy46]

i am asking this question for my girlfriend.

what do you look for in a man/woman in BOTH physical and emotional standards.

eg: do you like a woman with big boobs, who also has a good heart?

do you like a man that is built like a tank, that is shalow?

list what you look for in their looks, and in their heart/mind.

i do like women with longer hair, so long as its not all the way down to their ***.

i like women that have a good and caring personality, but will also speak their mind and tell me what they think and feel.

[font="trebuchet ms"] Mostly I like guys who are guys. Guys who dress like guys and act like guys and look manly, but are also smart and charming. Not necessarily good-looking, but if they just have that masculinity it's a turn on.There's only several people I can think of that's like this at my school, so yeah, I know it's a minority. lol

I would never consider an effeminate guy (ever), because I'm feminine enough for the both of us and it's just a turn-off when it comes to romantic possibility. Muscle mass has to be there to some extent. Beefy guys aren't my type, but neither are scrawny ones. I epsecially like nice arms. :)

Physical features aside, the guys I like are usually smarter than me. They must must must be funny. Humor is probably the biggest thing I look for in guys.[/font]

[B][SIZE="1"]What do I look for in girls? Well I do tend to be more attracted to girls with long dark hair for a start. I don't really want a girl that is taller then me it just feels odd to me.
The most important part needed is she needs to have a sharp mind and somewhat witty although not necessarily packed with useless knowledge. She must at all costs tolerate my obsession with anime and teh interweb. I don't really care if she doesn't have the perfect body or anything as long as she has an alright face.

If you find one like that let me know I have yet to anyway ha[/SIZE][/B]

Interesting..

What do I look for in a girl...
Its mostly about personality, though looks is +20 out of 50.
I look for an active body type, about the same height, and a cute face.

What do I look for in a girls heart you ask...
THIS is a whole new world my friend. I think that personality is the most important thing in a girl, because I would marry a ugly girl with a great personality, but I wouldn't marry a girl with a pretty face and horrible personality (duh!). Personality would have to be the majority ;)

So, I look for an out-going girl, that can hold her tongue if she needs to. Tells me if I'm doing something wrong (even if I don't want to believe it). Thats about it :p

[B]PLUS[/B] the obvious things, like have some things in common.

Thats about it... No one I've seen is actually like that though, because there aren't that many mature kids around here these days

[font=Arial]I look for mental strength. I look for reserved confidence. I look for open-mindedness and creativity. I like a girl who isn't afraid to speak her mind, who doesn't shy away from conflict simply to maintain harmony. I like a girl who demands more from me, but at the same time can accept my flaws.

In terms of looks, I tend towards dark-haired and petite women. I used to be really into women from the far east, but recently Latinas and Middle Eastern women float the boat. Don't ask me why, I really have no idea.[/font]

[color=#9933ff][font=lucida calligraphy]Okay well I asked him to do it and he did it. Good boy. :animesmil

So now I guess I have to reply to the question

Physically:

I go for eyes first. I have really nice eyes so I expect the guy I date to have nice ones as well. I'm a sucker for dark eyes especially brown ones.

Hair. Oh Lord am I particular about hair. It should be shorter than mine (which is quite easy) not too long unless you can actually pull it off and really it should all be on your head. I can't really stand facial hair (especially on my current boyfriend because it makes him look like a redneck) and body hair reminds me of my lab partner in chemistry class. Uck. As for color though, I've never really thought about it

Height, eh it used to be a big thing for me to have the guy be taller. But now I've realized that that's what heels are for. And having a guy close to my height makes a few things a lot easier ;)

Weight... Uh well as long as it's not frightening man boobs I guess I don't care.

Body art is optional, but you get points for it.

Emotionally, Mentally whatever:

I think that a sense of humor is the most important thing that a guy can have... after trust and respect of course.

If a guy can handle my mood swings and doesn't mind that I've called just to complain then I'm really in love. Heh. I like a guy who can listen, because it means a lot to me. [/color][/font]

[spy46]

well then meg, it looks like i meet 99% of your standards then eh? :animesmil

I'm partial to the living, but there are exceptions to everything in this crazy world. After all, as Martha Stewart would most definitely say, a little roll in the grave every once in a while is a good thing.

It's also a plus if she can tolerate my music, but even better if she too enjoys older classical styled music. It's more fun when you're dating someone who will actually go to a concert with you or attend one where you're performing.

As for looks, that tends to vary a lot since I'm not that picky when it comes to hair and eye color. I do like one that is reasonably fit and yet isn't obsessed with how she looks. I really hate that actually, waiting on someone who spends more time checking how their makeup looks instead of simply having fun.

The biggest thing that gets me more than anything is a pretty smile. There's just something attractive about someone who looks like they are happy and having a good time.

[COLOR="DarkOrange"]As far as appearance goes - I likes em short. I'm a sucker for soft skin and milky skin tones. I like a girl with a round face and a thin body. Tiny = gewd. Hair may be short or long, depending on style and color.

I ike a girl who dresses cute and has a lot of style. If you can accessorize well, you earn mo' cute points.

Personality-wise, it's tough. I think the time I'm most attracted to is the shy type who's really clingy and dependant, but I think that would be the worst type for me, because I [i]am[/] clingy and dependant, not to mention I am not dependable.

So when it comes to the kind of person I want to be with, I want someone who can take care of me. Someone who's more stable than myself and mature who I can be there to support from the side.

Ah, but who am I kidding. I've got no chance in hell![/COLOR]

[color=#9933ff][font=lucida calligraphy]I forgot to add this before but intelligence is a huge turn on for me. I don't act it a lot but I do have a working brain and I like to have actual conversations with people who know what they're talking about. So if a guy can carry on a conversation about more than his video game collection or his hair products nice. Yes, a little knowledge goes a long way because Canada is not a province no matter what world you're living in.[/color][/font]

As for physical attributes, I look for (as cliche as it sounds) tall, dark, and handsome. Meaning, I like a guy that is taller than me, which isn't that hard, since i'm 5'6'' (my last boyfriend was 5'10''), and dark hair, normally brown, but I'm not particular. Redheads are nice too. :) I usually like guys that are sort of in-shape, but not necessarily go-to-the-gym-everyday-macho-guy, but when it comes down to it, weight doesn't really matter. By the way, glasses, nice eyes, and a great smile are hot.

I also like a guy who can make me laugh, but yet intelligent. Being a Christian, I'm also looking for a good Christian guy to lift me up in my faith. I also want a guy who's somewhat strong, so that I can feel safe with him. And those guys looking for some "nookie" don't look here, I'm waiting until I'm married. If a guy can respect that, that's amazing. But the biggest thing that gets me attracted to a guy is his sense of humor, his smile and/or eyes, and his faith. Not that I'm that shallow as to not date non-christians, but I feel I'd have a lot more in common with a Christian. And he also has to like the same-ish music (doesn't necessarily have to like ALL of it) and at least be open to the idea of anime. (I got my last boyfriend, who was very anti-anime to watch Fruits Basket, and he liked it! heh heh)

I like guys who know how to be masculine, but also have a somewhat feminine figure -- and are okay with that! I'm not a big fan of really built up bodies; I know that it makes a lot of girls feel protected, but it can also create the opposite effect. I'm not saying that I don't like muscle, because lean muscle is perfect. I love to see it when guys have toned arms, because it lets you know that he's strong enough to defend you, but not so strong that he might squash you when you hug him!

I also have a preference for urban guys. It used to be that country boys were very respectful and gentlemanlike, but they're a dying race. Now it's motorcycles, cowboy boots and dirty language. Plus, a lot of them have no style. It may sound shallow, but it bothers me to be out somewhere nice with [I]anyone[/I] in jeans and a tee shirt. I guess if a nice, respectful Southerner came along, I would be all right with that. But, no such luck just yet.

I have no decided preference on hair/eye/skin color. But I'm usually attracted to members of my own race -- caucasian. Sometimes, you get the occasional Asian guy, but my parents are strongly against interracial relationships.

Oh, and that's a big thing. I like guys who are respectful towards my family and me. Honesty is also an important quality. I would rather be told the honest-to-God truth than my boyfriend pretend that everything was all right until I found out about a problem. That just makes things worse.

Thoughtfulness is a huge key. Just little surprises can let both people in a relationship know that their boyfriend/girlfriend cares. Quick humor and wit is also a favorite among guys, but not comepletely necessary. Guys who can tolerate both my nerdiness and my love for clothes and sports -- plus my silly little quirks -- are a huge turn-on. A girl needs a guy who loves her for who she is. And I love guys who share my stupid habits, or have funny quirkls of their own.

The main thing is, I don't like dating clones. I like guys who have their own personality and style.

[COLOR="Indigo"]I've never been picky on either guys or girls, because im not the best thing myself. But in a girl I like them with moderatly long hair, and is usually dark hair brown black etc. I've never been one for blondes. I dont really care how heavy a girl is or the breast size, I've dated twigs to really big I don't care in that matter. They always need a good presonality if they dont im gone, need to like what I like at least somthing that we can relate to.

Guys on the other hand :animesmil I love them built like rocks even if Im not i go for many looks in a man but they need an artsict personality I love musicians and writers. They need a big one too.. yeah I love em big anything below 5 inches and Im gone! I love guys with long hair down to their neck perffered and only dark hair.[/COLOR]

[SIZE="1"]Generally I think the only thing I look for in a girl would have to be a moderately high intelligence, because I've always found myself attracted to women who can hold my attention in a conversation. Interests similar to my own are always good, but I'm more than willing to try things she enjoys, so long as it doesn't involve shopping, but hell I'm a man so that's genetic.

Personality-wise I'm not picky, as I'm equally attracted to girls who are shy and girls who are confident as both bring out different parts of my own persona, creativity is probably the only thing I definitely look for, but there's plenty of room for interpretation there, writers, artists, whatever. If they have an art, I like it.

In terms of physique, I've always considered that the last thing I look for in any relationship, because looks can change far more easily than personality can. I suppose the fact I try to take care of my own body means that I like girls who do the same, but aren't obsessed with the way they look. Any girl who can shower, throw on some clothes and say she's ready gets a massive thumbs up from me. If I had to pick things I find attracted, then I'm going to have to go with eyes and lips, the classics really.[/SIZE]

[ChibiHorsewoman]

[color=#9933ff][font=lucida calligraphy] I don't know if I mentioned this already- but must like kids since mine isn't going any where is high on the list. It ranks up there with moderate intelligence, a sense of humor and nice eyes.

Oh, I don't know if this is on topic or not but last night one of my guy friends (whose girlfriend By the way is six years older than him) said that what most guys want is a young cute girl. I'm pretty sure that it's not completely true since there are a few guys out there whose girlfriends or wives are older than them, but how true is that comment?[/color][/font]

[Starfire0567]

Girls-Taller then me (not so hard),looks don't really matter,must have working brains (!),and a good personality.

Guys-Pretty the much the same,and they can't be skinnier then me OR wear tighter jeans then I do!

[FONT="Book Antiqua"][SIZE="2"]I generally take a particular interest in girl's with nice [B]boobies[/B]. And I usually like for their hair to be around 3 inches past their shoulder's, and mainly straight(a few curls here and there is fine). I also like for the girl to be fairly average weight with small feet. And everything else is just kinda whatever/anything goes type deal. Oh, and a good heart is nice too...but not [I]required[/I].;)[/SIZE][/FONT]
