    Turn ons: A man who is SMART. Dumb guys really turn me off... big time. A guy who is confident in himself and knows what he wants out of life, doesn't LIE (thats a huge one!!), a guy who can joke around and not be critical of himself or others. And for me with looks, I like the taller lengthy type of guy with a little bit of nerdiness in him. But I think everyone has a nerd side to them, just depends on if a man is.. man enough to show it! I've got different taste than most- but oh well. (:

    Turn offs: SMOKING, guys that take pictures of themselves and post it on facebook constantly- I'm a girl, and I don't even do that. Guys that are too into themselves, guys that are rude to others to act cool in front of me or their friends. Oh, and guys that lie. Said that earler. But its huge. Can you tell I've had a cheater as an ex? (:

    he needs to be stable.. have a job and WANT to keep working to better his life. must have a decent amount of money so i can be a stay at home wife, with a good allowance that he gives me for things I need on a daily basis and some more. A family man. Does not go out but once a month with his boys (meaning he would rather be with me) not playing video games 24-7!!! staying home with me but actually giving me 3 hours for a movie or dinner with me then he can do his thing at home.. someone taller than me. gives me compliments.! doesnt argue or get jealous but still makes u feel as though he is protecting u and watching over u... and i like spiky hair alot. and humor is also a huge one... but communication is key to any man.... and he cant be a cheater he has to be very loyal.

    that being said, dear lord please bring that type of man into my life and ask him to marry me and live happily ever after!!! hahaha... cuz im sure as hell positive that man doesnt exist... Amen...

    They must smell good.
    They must clean their ears, I can not tolerate earwax it grosses me out.
    They need to wear clean clothes, not stained( I'm referring to nonwork or workout clothes of course).
    They must be polite and respectful.
    They have to have a good work ethic , I don't care what their chosen profession is but they must be motivated at it, even if it is stay at home dad basically they must be a usefull member of society.
    They can't be mean or nasty to anyone.
    Absolutely no drugs.

    The should be able to have a good time.

    As far as looks my tastes run the gamut, if I showed you a line up of my former flames you would never guess the same girl dated them all lol. Blond hair, black hair, brown hair, long hair, short hair, tall, short, skinny, stocky, muscles, wirey. Whatever :bigsmile:
  • Turn on: funny, cooking skills, shower me with compliments
    Turn off: chewing sounds, telling me I am wrong in front if friends and family
  • I love it when a guy loves his parents, is generally positive, and has a passion for life, even if he doesn't know what his career will be yet! I am a Christian, so a man with a strong faith is most important of all. It is nice when he likes to go for walks or bike rides and when he enjoys a good cuddle by the fire with an old book!
    Turnoffs...showing off makes me dislike a guy instantly. It is so childish and immature. A guy who is decently confident (but not arrogant!) and who doesn't live for attention is very attractive.
    One more thing...just for the record, it is NOT attractive when guys show their boxers--who wants to see that???

    He has to be family orientated, funny as *kitten*, confident just short of arrogant.

    That's what I am attracted to.
    Thankfully my fiance is all of these things.

    You just described my husband. (Except for the spikey hair). Lol! Funny thing is I wasn't out looking for someone like this, he just fell into my lap, and I lucked out!

    Turn on for me: When he surprises me out of the blue to let me know he was thinking about me. His smell. The way he REALLY focuses on me when I talk, like I'm the only person in the room. The way he encourages me to reach my goals and helps to make them happen!

    Turn offs: Excessive drinking, smoking, jerky friends, dishonesty.

    A sense of humor and intelligence will turn a moderately attractive man into a god in my eyes. And I seem to have an affinity for military men, so I guess a certain amount of bravery and giving me that safe feeling helps, too.

    Arrogance and a mean spirit will get you nowhere. And a lack of intelligence kills my libido. Also jealousy and poor hygiene. Nothing worse than a stinky man (unless you just worked out or something).

    DIdn't we just go over this a week ago?? Guys - really its different. Just as you are not attracted to the same girls your buddy might be; us girls have different taste too!!

    For me personally - I am first attracted by eyes and smile is next. After talking I love a strong voice (voice should match the man) and I love a good sense of humor! Intelligent and able to speak about many different things. All these things will come before a super fit body.

    Granted the eyes, body and smile is what will first get me to talk to you, but if you can't hold me in a good conversation...Bye bye!!

    There are so many aspects of a man that can make him attractive or unattractive. And I think the unattractive list is much shorter to be honest!! :tongue:
  • Turn off: Arrogance, someone who is confident to the point that it becomes embarrassing, vain, No empathy, cocky, no care for their appearance, someone who is stuck on their x-box/games console 24/7, short (I know that's not a nice thing to say as they could have a heart of gold, but it feels weird for me, sorry :(), liar, commitment issues, sexist

    Turn on: Good sense of humour, Caring, intelligent, honest, good with children, lovely smile, someone who loves to make me feel special, nice smell, taller than me (I am 5ft 9 so quite tall for a girl), good cook (I am a chef myself so a foodie is a good match lol) clan and tidy around the house, animal lover. :)

    Well, I haven't been guy hunting since I was 20 when I met my husband, so while my attractions may be different now, I can certainly remember what I always went for back then. And this is in all honesty, if someone had asked me I would have said all the things these other women are saying; but if I'm speaking the truth, I typically fell for cocky, chest puffed out bad boys. I had so many guy friends back then that were sweet, intelligent, charming and just all around really good people, that never became anything more than friends. I always went for 'that guy' the guy that everyone was waiting for him to walk into the room because he was the most interesting person around, and while some women would say that these attractions lead no where, I would have to say that for me that wasn't the case. I met my husband based on these ridiculous attractions and could not have asked for a better husband/provider/father than he turned out to be. Although, if I got a divorce tomorrow, I would probably seek out someone much different!
