Most men: Looking for a woman that'll be willing to have sex with them anytime.

Me: I'm looking for a crazy-psycho chick. Sane women are boring.

If and when you end up with a crazy, psycho chick and find yourself overwhelmed with stress and/or nearly dead with injuries that your medical insurance won't cover, I'm pretty sure you'll retract that statement.

What I look for:

- Similar tastes, interests, etc.
- Similar beliefs
- A cute (but not childish) sense of humour
- Fun to talk to or simply be in the presence of
- Interesting
- Nice, but honest
- Has to be someone I can always learn something new from
- NOT overly pushy and/or abusive

That's called being a slut. Unless she charges.

i second everything that violentcloud posted:

dignity is very important, not only in terms of relationship ethics, and ties right in to being an individual person - when i want to hear "yes" all day, i could just as well talk to myself, which is less people-stressy.

Intelligence, ability to carry on a conversation, and ability to return phone calls. :roll:

With the girls I loved best there was an instant knowing of each other. To some people you explain about yourself and they never understand you. With one girl I said nothing for a long time, and she said the exact right thing, or at least it felt that way...

THAT is what I am looking for in a girl.




btw... the ones I loved best were aspies and intelligent.

Most men:

If looking for a serious or semi-serious relationship: A girl who is both the partying type but also very nice (possibly in a sarcastic way), and who is not a drama queen. A girl that is all three will have no difficulty getting a serious relationship unless she's very, very ugly. Also, common interests.

Casual dating: Looks above all else, followed by factors above, niceness not important.



Me:

Like 1st paragraph, but not the partying type. There's also got to be something different about her, something that makes her stand out from the crowd in terms of personality.

Fairly spot on. I like a girl that likes to go out and have fun, but doesn't make partying a huge priority. Also, I also love smart girls... intelligence is a huge turn-on for me. Looks are fairly critical, although physical looks can certainly be influenced by personality (in my case at least).

For a very serious relationship, just two more things on top of that: Loyalty and Honesty. I want the girl I'm with to stand by my side no matter what the cause, and I also want to be able to trust her to the fullest extent. Without those two things, it will never work, IMO.

I don't seek a specific criteria of personality that much ....as long as she's honest and not mean/dirty then I can get used to her personality. Every person is unique ....so all these 'must' lists are useless in my opinion.

I mainly look for two things : attractive looks and femininity.

I was truly surprised to see you list femininity before. I meant to ask you to tell more about what that means, to you.
