in Chit-Chat
I was just asked the "what is your type?" question ...

and it stumped me. My canned answer I've had for most of my life is definately changed. I had to really stop and think about it.


Let's say whatever partner you had in your life right now was out of the story. And you had to write down your "type" (yes, i know it always depends, changes, etc, but try to think about if you ~had~ to come up with one "type") ...

... has it changed from the "type" you had always looked for before?

    My type hasn't changed much in the last twelve or so years. I started falling for chunky tatted up dudes in my late teens, and that continued through adulthood. Then I started falling for more fit tatted up dudes (not ripped, just tall/broad)... and then I just started having a thing for tall/broad/big dudes, tats or not.

    I used to only like thin girls, then I dated two overweight girls in a row and appreciated their beauty and really enjoyed the sex even though the relationships didn't quite work out. Of course, then I ended up with a relatively slim girl who I love to death. However, she used to be fat and it's nice to know if she ever gets fat again I will be totally cool with it. So, I guess my type didn't change, I just broadened my horizons.

    Not really... Always liked the bad-boy-underachievers. I'm even with one now, even though I didn't know it until I learned more about his younger years! LOL.

    If you mean from "fat" to skinny, then yup!

    Oh wait, you were talking about our preferences in others??? Nope, I've always been a legs man (first noticed this draw when I was in 4th or 5th grade, i think). Still love the legs; but have refined it to include a myriad of other attributes.

    I was really into bad boys, then I realized they would eventually suck the life out of you, know mine is a shirt ironing, comic book reading, over organized funny guy. OMG I married a nerd, at least hes cute, and is organized! I love him for this. Hes still kind of a punk rocker but definately a lil nerdy, thats why I love him.

    I thought my ex-bf was my type.. But I was wrong or tricked (depends on how you look at it) But I think my type has always been the same but it does vary. I just haven't really met anyone like that IRL but I have here on MFP. But as I get older, my type is slightly changing.

    My" type" used to be very dark skin, bald (Tupac & Tyrese), thats when I was in my late teens. Since I have dated damn near everyone under the sun. So to me as long as he has good hygiene, treats me well......a must and has as much as I have and striving for more, thats my type we can kick it. Paul Walker, Idris Elba totally different looks I want them both. No type.

    My type used to be:

    Older (by at least several years)
    Shorter (doesn't take much - I'm 5'10")
    Dark hair
    Light eyes
    Chest hair
    Bubble butt
    Big hands
    Chubby

    Now, I think the chest hair and the big hands are still on my list, and I definitely wouldn't be attracted to someone younger than me, but they wouldn't have to be THAT old and I could care less about the height. Also, I think someone physically active is a definite MUST at this point.

    My type has never wavered and never will becuase it can encompass any physical attributes. You see my type is crazy.

    Absolutely...I dated Italian guys (darker, Sicilian type looks) almost exclusively for most of my life, then ended up married to one of the whitest white-boys in town...and I wouldn't trade him for anyone else :laugh:

    No. I've always preferred chicks with big racks and I still do.

    My tastes haven't changed that much. My problem is that I'm too darn picky - I'm holding out for someone who can put up with ME. :ohwell:

    My type changed the day I met my husband. Always like tall, broad, dark haired, light eyed, clean (no smoking, drinking) guys. My husband is 1" taller than me (I'm 5'9"), blond, grey eyes, and fit but definately not broad. Plus when we first met he smoked like a chimney and drank like a fish and I would consider him a bad boy (flavor of the week type of guy...). Now he's no longer a smoker, had a few beers on the weekend and that's it, loving father and husband, and I've been his only flavor for 12 years! :) I love a reformed bad boy! :):)
