What type of guy do you like?

Post Reply New Topic

Appearance:
My dream men are Lee Jun Ki and Yoon Shi Yoon ;-D

* I like the thin body frame and non-muscly men.
* Hair doesn't matter, but I think wavy hair looks nice.
* I like all eye colors except for light colors, they creep me out.
* Facial hair: doesn't matter much to me either way.
* I like a tan (real tan). I also love black skin!
* I thought I didn't like hairy chests and now I love them.

But that's a preference, when it comes to picking a guy, none of it matters.
My current fiancé is nothing like this, and I still find him good looking. And strangely enough, I've always dated other boys and men that others considered ugly, yet I found them very good looking. My fiancé now is considered "very good looking" but I couldn't care less.


Personality:
* Enjoys talking about random topics. Shares his thoughts with me and likes to know my thoughts
* Doesn't get stuck up on ideas (will change if he learns something better)
* Likes to improve his life
* Kind; goes out of his way to help family and friends
* Not afraid of change
* Homebody, but likes to check out cool places once in a while. Whatever that may be.
* Not afraid of the truth. Doesn't mind me being honest and is not afraid being honest
* Sense of humor: sarcasm and satire. Hate dirty humor.
* Cares about his health
* Likes to walk / hike / play outside with me once in a while

I don't care about common interests. Interests may change with time, then what? As long as the personality fits and the two of you get along, it's all good.

However, number one priority which I do not negotiate: he must have intact equipment down there. He can't bring me to orgasm if he's cut.

I've always liked nerds.

Is it just me or do all you guys and gals lean towards the immature? And what's with all the drugs? I want a guy who will get a high off of ME!
Though I'm still in my teens, I think I'm pretty set on my type.
Taller than me (Please Lord, let him be taller than me!).
Dark hair or better yet dark, dark skin, all satiny smooth.
Glasses are nice too.
Long hair, or at least shaggy, hanging just a little in front of eyes bright with intelligence. (It seems almost everyone finds long hair attractive. Hmm, food for thought.)
Older than me by at least two years.
Either in school or with an interesting job.
Tough and strong, but gentle with me.
A tiny bit possesive and dominant.
Experienced, but without a roving eye.
Artistic or musicalally talented.
And most of all, willing to listen to me.
Long list, but hey, all good things. Dream Man!

First, you can direct the question at men too. A lot of discussions here about men aren't adressed at men as well, and a lot of the questions to males here are about women, I find the whole situation a bit tricky. There's the LGBT forum, but it's more about being LGBT than discussing your subject of interest...

As for me, I wouldn't exactly know, I'd liked a lot of contrary types in my life - androgynous and waif-y, strongly built and wide, someone looking like a homeless druggy typecast, but with just enough money... Emotionally, I like a strong sense of personality - like mine, and I also like sensitivity. That's it in a nutshell.

Intellectuals... They usually come off as arrogant, now that I see who I've liked in the past. Funny/silly, enjoys video gaming, and doesn't play head-games with me.

Some of the replies mention hair, and I seldom think of it but I find that either very very short hair (like Ewan McGregor in Trainspotting) or long but neat hair (like Bender in Breakfast club) usually catches my attention.

But regarding personality,

Guys that I am likely to be attracted to:
-Byronian drifter with sophisticated social tact but chooses to be alone
-have a child-like innocent side
-kind
-a little egoistic, but not selfish
-have good dude friends..
-get along well with girls

Guys that I think is actually good for me:
-kind and has a sense of nice humor
-intelligent
-likes reading and movies
-street-smart enough, at least better than me
-nurturing and caring, but not clingy
-understands women quite well
-able to enjoy and appreciate alone time

last but not least...
-have broad shoulders (cuz my shoulders are broad and I don't want to be the huskier one...)

I really like long beautiful hair and slender hands. I prefer androgynous men and I think it's really hot to dress a boyfriend up in my clothes. My current boyfriend is such a sweetheart so I shall describe some of his good qualities. He has waist-length strawberry blond hair and a thin girlish frame. He loves cute things and can be both silly and playful and detail-oriented and analytical. He's also very affectionate and cares deeply about the well-being of other living creatures, being an ethical vegan. He is also relatively quiet, respecting my need for quiet time while also really enjoying the time that we spend together. He has a great sense of humor and prefers honest and straightforward communication. He cares about his health and doesn't smoke or drink. He has an immense hat collection and looks adorable in all of them.

Honest with a good heart.

Has no kids and doesn't want them. I also don't like when they have other big commitments like working a lot.

Emotionally healthy - not too pessimistic, stuck in set ways, having anger issues, etc.

One who can understand about all my disabilities and is not going to be bothered by my habits. Good at picking up signals, learning, and remembering so they don't upset me. Patient and even tempered. Flexible because I am inflexible on some little preferences.

Social so he can shield me from people and have good conversations with me. Gets along well with other people. But not too social or needing me to be. Some talkative/ADHD people drive me crazy. Most guys want their GF to hang out with their friends and family which I don't like.

Not the kind who needs to travel much or go out a lot. I can't go out much cuz of disabilities.

Not having some of the other common traditional wants, which do not fit with me.

Giving and I like the "nice guys" that most women don't, but they have to be able to stand up for themselves when it makes sense. (Conversely, I can't stand a guy who wants to control me at all. I need freedom.) Someone that can be competitive but not too much, not jealous or vengeful or feeling like they have to prove something.

A hard working ethic. I like if they have skills and knowledge.

They take care of themselves and have good health. I don't like them to have extra pounds. Definitely no smoking.

Uses substances lightly/occasionally or never.

Not too clingy, but affectionate. Sexually compatible.

Likes cats or quickly learns.

I usually don't like sarcasm.

I prefer no facial hair.

I find many average men attractive. I almost prefer having one considered average looking.



These are great.



Glad to see you're making it work. I would be single forever if this was a priority

give me nerdy any day, especially if he knows his way around computer hardware... and if he looks like Stephen Colbert, all the better...

Defenetly NOT the heartless, 'manly' (NO ) jerk types...>.>; ....Unless it's a troubled cutie in fiction. (like silver....)

But in real life? NO.

There mustn't be any rule for it either.

My kind of guy?

--- Gotta be funny, but in a clever witty way, not a slapstick or "pull my finger" way. I can usually count on that guys who like Monty Python are going to have the sense of humor I like. If he is a fan of Jackass, Tom Green, etc. then I'll run the other direction.

--- Gotta be SMART. He doesn't have to be formally educated -- one of the more brilliant men I know only graduated high school, but is self-taught on a variety of subjects. He should be able to keep up with me on an intellectual level, and be well-rounded and aware of what's going on around him in the world.

--- Great teeth are MANDATORY. I can't stand crooked, snaggly or yellow, rotten teeth. I think I notice teeth so much because since I'm not comfortable looking people in the eye, I look at their mouths. I would even prefer dentures over bad teeth. On a related note, I hate smoking, and tolerate only a small amount of drinking.

--- He should be a nice guy. Seems obvious enough, but there are lots of creeps out there. My criteria for them being nice is how they treat animals, waitstaff in restaurants, and Valentine's Day. I've learned that if a guy won't indulge his girl on Valentine's Day, he'll be selfish in other areas of their lives as well. Hang on to the guy who will be good to his girl on Valentine's Day, even if he thinks it's stupid. He knows it's important to her, and so he makes it a priority.

--- We need to have the same moral code and belief system.

Those are the have-tos. Now for the preferences --

--- Facial hair -- a guy can be clean-shaven, but I much prefer moustaches, beards and especially goatees. One of the differences between men and boys is that men can grow facial hair while boys can't. So why get rid of it?

--- Talent -- it really helps if a man has a real talent for something. It can be playing guitar or playing pool or carpentry or debating.

--- Cultured is a plus. I love art and music and film. I would expect the guy I hook up with the be the same.

--- If I have a choice, I prefer bigger guys over thinner ones.

--- I'm no longer concerned about hair color or even if he HAS hair. I love great hair, but it generally doesn't last so it's not a big deal. Also,

--- Finally, as long as a guy is clean, presentable for public display and bears a close resemblence to other members of his species, classic good looks don't matter that much.

Big, tall, large nose, hairy bear type men with lots of facial hair and long head hair preferably dark or ranga with curly as preference.

Personality wise....gamer, sci fi nerd types with loner type personalities. Preferably quiet and has to love the outdoors and hiking.

I like mature guys someone who is good in decision making, who knows the worldly ways, no way can fool him, he should be good looking, likes reading more then TV and sports, good in communication, would keep talking with me and will talk on interesting topics, someone who is responsible and takes lead in family and child responsibilities. Maintains good hygiene, is not spendthrift.

My husband is not that good looking, doesnt maintain hygiene, drinks beer, smokes, he is not talkative, is secretive, spendthrift, not good decision maker, lazy, watches TV and sports whole day, doesnt communicate with me, people fool him easily also he is childish behaviour...yes but takes care of our son..(which is good)

I don't really have a particular type... my boyfriend is kind of a hillbilly.

I really don't care about looks, age, and cultural background...

Those I can get along with have to be extremely straightforward, honest, open minded, caring and loving. Not just with me, but with everyone.They have to be smart, have good self-esteem but yet be humble. And they have to... ah... be rather happy, be able to see beauty in the world and in humanity... Ah! And they have to be able to accept that they can't control nor change me.

Mmmm... I'm likely to remain single.
