in Motivation and Support
I'm smart. I'm kind. I'm funny. I'm easy going and I think generally a pleasure to be around. I'm usually rational, logical and calm. I listen and sympathize when others need. I like to do fun things. I can carry on a conversation and generally have interesting things to talk about. I practice good personal hygiene and generally smell good. I wear clean clothes and try to look "well put together". I look people in the eye and smile when I pass them on the street. I don't bug people at the gym by being overly talkative but will return small talk when necessary. I'm polite to people who work in retail or food service.


What else....???



Oh and I'm fit, healthy and consider myself to be slightly above average in terms of physical attractiveness. Oh and my husband occasionally tells me I'm sexy (but usually only when he's trying to get me in bed) and my kids tell me I'm pretty (but was prettier in my wedding pictures, blah).




Why do you feel attractive??

    Great post. I'm getting tired of the trollsssss.. THIS is motivational :drinker:

    One thing for me is now when I wear dresses and heels, I usually get a door or two opened for me. Love that!

    I'm going to go make the rest of my list now :flowerforyou:

    Oh but you are. There's a lot more to attraction than just looking at a picture and saying "hot or not". Why do people want to be around you? Why do your friends like you? Why do your children love you? What really attracts one person to the next? Sure the physical is part but not all of it. There are some really good looking people out there whom I do NOT find attractive for a variety of reasons.

    I feel attractive because I know I'm getting stronger, both physically and mentally. It's not even the aesthetic benefit I get from strength training (although I do like that bonus as well) but it's the inner strength that I find increasing the most.

    For me, the physical and mental aspects work in tandem, so the higher my physical strength is, the more confident I feel day to day, and I'm a much happier person that smiles a heck of a lot more :)

    I feel attractive because I have a great personality and I am friendly to everyone I meet. I like everyone until they give me a personal reason to not like them. I am working on the physical part and every day that I have a good day of eating and/or go on a bike ride I know I am getting one step closer.

    I feel attractive because most people think I am 10 years younger than I really am. I'm also physically stronger than I was when I was half the age I am now. Also, my husband is still treating me like I'm a Victoria Secret model. He has bad eyesight, though! Whenever I say, "look at that cellulite," he says, "What cellulite? I can't see it!" Find a guy with bad eyesight -- it's a key to a great marriage.

    and my kids tell me I'm pretty

    Kids are great for that. My eldest will tell me I'm beautiful and my girls always complement my clothing :D

    Im attractive because of the light that shines through from within
    because I care about and for others
    I (try to) smile often (and its a super cute half smile that I love lol)
    I try new things
    am shyly goofy

    eta.. after reading the lipstick comment aftermine... I feel attractive when wearing my super awesome red lipstick (especially if I've just dyed my hair)

    I feel attractive because I no longer waddle, I walk.

    Gosh... Being a Brit i'm struggling with this slightly, y'know, stiff upper lip and all that. But, here goes...

    I feel attractive because i can fit into my size 10 clothes.
    I feel attractive because my hubby randomly tells me he loves me.
    I feel attractive because my youngest daughter (age 12) said to me the other day, "when i grow up and i'm a mammy i hope i'm as good a mammy as you are". Total heart melt.
