    LOL its funny I just asked myself this question the other day. I sat back and thought about all the guys I ever "dated" or crushed on and noted that they all had 4 things in common.
    1 They were all taller than me
    2 They were all sarcastic as hell
    3 They were all cocky and or very confident.....
    4. They all had tattos and or piercings



    So appenrently thats my type. I think its because I'm very sarcastic and tall for a girl . The cocky/confident thing just makes it easier for me to be me. I find that when I hang out with shy guys it kinda inhibits me a little and I get very uncomfortable. And I have a serious thing for tattoos :devil: :drinker:

    I'm latino too. I've dated mostly white myself. Not to say I havent dated other races. I've also noticed most of the women tend to be a foot shorter then me. I've dated very few that were over 5'5". I'm 6'3".

    A conversation is huge for me. I've had experiences where the lady wants me to hold the whole conversation. And then she got upset when I got quiet. lol. Never could win that argument. lol

    It's awesome you know exactly what you want.

    I so have a type. I dig "nerdy" guys. I'm a nerdy girl myself, so a smart boy or a computer/comic book kind of guy just rocks my socks. Unfortunately for me nerdy boys like hotties with bodies, not xbox loving book nerds who are working on their fitness.

    I like good looking, fit women. I like women who are pleasant to be around and don't cause problems/drama. Someone who is straight forward, has emotional maturity and can communicate. Most of the women I tend to date have college degrees, but the Bachelor's degree is so watered down as compared to 30-40 years ago that it has little meaning in terms of proving intelligence and/or sophistication.

    I don’t really have a type as far as looks go (Although I do like a nice smile :smile: ). However, having ambitions in life is a must. I'm currently working on my Masters Degree and I'm constantly trying to better myself in my career. Therefore, I would have a hard time dating someone who didn’t have goals for the future.

    I don't think I really have a type but the last few guys have all been Puerto Rican. I didn't specifically go after that it just kind of turned out that way!

    Someone with perspective, meaning they are aware of the goings on of the world and history.

    Someone who puts people before money and things below both people and money.

    Someone thoughtful of others. I'm empathetic and caring and I don't want someone who is selfish or self absorbed.

    Someone with faith in a higher power.

    Someone who likes to learn and improve themselves, not just sit and become stagnant.

    Someone who can fight fair, discuss opinions and ideas without turning it into an argument and will stick up for what they believe in.

    I'm also partial to jeans and boots, carnivores and men who are taller/stronger than myself.

    Physically, I like to look at pretty boys with chiseled features and a little Metro. But I tend to be drawn to and more attracted to a stockier, rougher around the edges guy...a little more blue collar looking then preppy. My type is caucasian, brownish hair and light eyes specifically. But I've been attracted to different races and looks.

    Sense of humor
    Charisma
    Communicator

    I don't ask for much.

    Intelligent
    masculine
    nice smile
    great personality
    very respectful
    Knows how to communicate (that's important)
    Give in to my super overly niceness
    I don't really have specific physical criteria and I prefer any race, doesn't matter at all to me.



    Ok so now where is he? :):):)

    he's probably being mistreated by the "wrong" kind of girl at the moment. he'll wise up soon. :wink:
    regarding your super overly niceness, what do you mean by "give in"?

    goals are very important to me too. im excited to work hard for a stronger well being but would feel slightly taken for granted if my SO was sitting at home with an unparallel desire for herself.

    what's your master's degree?
