I don't know of those being attractive traits, I just know they're my positive traits.

They are certainly attractive.
You have a great sense of humour too.
And alas, I can only aspire to your level of maturity.
I'm not going to mention that you're also gorgeous because I've already teased you enough about that, I think :P
Don't want you getting a swollen head.
You hat won't fit.

"what personal qualities ... you have that ... make YOU attractive to the opposite sex"

The amusing aspie answer would be, "my collection of more than 400 train schedules from all major European cities." :D

(So I'll go with being intelligent, considerate, thoughtful, encouraging, romantic, and skilled in the use of the Oxford comma.)

Collecting to such a high degree suggests that you are dedicated and faithful.
There is also some highly attractive organisational skill there if you keep them in categories etc. :P


And it's pretty unique; not boring same old blah blah.

What do you have to offer?

I'm interested in what personal qualties/skills/talents/attributes/characteristics etc. you have that you believe make YOU attractive to the opposite sex - or the same sex if that is your preference.

(I don't mean superficial things like how much money you earn etc.)

Yes, I know this sounds like one of those dreaded job interview questions but I seem to notice a lot of people listing what makes them unattractive to others and not much of what makes them attractive.


You started the question but didn't answer it for you!
I'll add for you , based just on these posts, that you are supportive and encouraging.

I only have traits that would attract women from the 1950s and back

I'm kind, caring, loyal, romantic, nonselfless, funny, sweet. I always try to help people
I'm non violent, I value all life. Blah doesn't matter today.

Those traits should be timeless.
I'm sure there are still women who are attracted to such things.
I know I am, and I don't go back as far as the 1950's :lol:


I think many of them are timeless!

I think the my main attributes would fall under my appearance, intelligence, meek behaviour, humility, charisma, loyalty, abstract mentality, being a do-gooder, and my overall unknown force that people tend to gravitate to.

However, none of this applies online as others could vouch that I'm an arrogant, and conceited douchebag troll.

:]

Okay, I'll give it a go:
I am very loyal, I listen carefully and remember the little details, love animals, have a unique sense of humor, and I like to be helpful.

You seem very open and friendly.
And from what I've seen, you have a cute and quirky style.
(And you're very pretty too).


:) Thank you Raleigh!
You're very kind and considerate to all of us on the forums and as I recall, you've posted some witty things that have made me laugh in past posts.

Those are definitely attractive traits! And to echo what Raleigh said, you're very handsome (if only I were a few years younger :P ).

Thank you. It touches my heart to know that you see characteristics such as those, in me.
My quirks cancel out the good, thus, it is senseless for me to reveal any potentially desirable qualities.
This is a wonderful topic/thread you've created, Raleigh.

Some of my more desirable qualities are that I'm extremely loyal to those I'm closest to, I'm always willing to help out, I'm empathetic, people say that I'm funny, talented as a singer, actor, and writer, good with kids, good with animals, and generally very caring. A family guy (NO, not that Family Guy).

I'm extremely loyal, very affectionate within a romantic relationship, I try my best to be emotionally supportive & I've been through depression & anxiety & other emotional issues so I can systematize with people who have em.

I guess my physical characteristics aren't bad.

Personality..., I suppose I'm caring enough (I don't think I communicate it fully), and I'm passive/gentle, even during bad times. I think the ASD and OCD greatly overshadow any of the positives I have here, though.

On the scale of the catch: throw back and leave it to swim alone

I can be witty, particularly with someone to spar off of. I'm generally passive and patient to a fault, though (as shown by my behaviour here) I can also be dogged.

I can over-think things into oblivion. If you can do that too, we can have long, meandering yet repetitive conversations about the thingness of things.

I'm good at wallpapering. Also, I have pretty good taste in decor.

My eating habits* mean I can't 'do' restaurants or the like, so good news if you don't care for that. I'm oblivious to most social norms, and don't care for the ones I am aware of, and have done the whole 'prolonged mental collapse' thing, so tend to take people as I find them.

I'm moderately talented musically. So if you want to jam or be serenaded, there's that.

*By this I mean a restrictive, repetitive diet rather than, say, I can only eat while nude.

attractive to the opposite sex

Well, s**t! :lol:


I like fixing things like the hinges of paper dispensers, fasten loose screws or carry heavy things (not too heavy though, I'm a scrawny dude), DIY stuff, etc. I think that's a little bit attractive because stereotypically men are expected to do these "technical" things.

Subtle muscle tone.
It's kinda hard to notice when I'm wearing just a T-shirt because it's so subtle, doesn't make me stand out among the skinny dudes or anything, but it's there.
Slight bit of muscle in the glutes too, that's never a bad thing.

Off-topic: I wish I had something good to say about character, but no. Maybe later. :P

Don't be so hard on yourself, those attributes qualify you as being a good catch. :fish:
