Girls: What do you look for in a guy? (albums, American)

Raine · 07-03-2006, 02:56 AM

Well looks really don't matter to me. It's pure coincidence that all the guys I've dated I just happened to be physically attracted to.
But my dream guy is at least four inches taller than me, slim waisted, has brown (lack) hair, has broad shoulders, is not anorexic skinny, shouldn't be overweight, and has to have all of his teeth, all of his hair, a nice smile, laughlines are ok, and that's about it. Skin color/race really doesn't bother me.

This person has to have a backbone. I have no desire for guys that cry or break down ate every turn, panics at the sight of blood, and thats orta thing. So I guess what I mean to say is this particular guy has to be level headed and capable of thinking under pressure.

I'd like to date someone that is fairly intelligent. I've decided that this guy must be literate in at least one language (not encessairly English). Ebonics does not count. This person should be good at math.

You must definitely be athletic. I won't budge on this requirment.

You must be funny. Not laugh out loud hilarious or anything but you should definitely have a sense of humor. If you can't take a joke then you can't handle life with me. Most of my life is one big joke anyway.

You have to be competitive. I'm a rather competitive person, I expect my partner to be. I really don't think I could tolerate it if my partner is the last man to finish soemthing he wanted to win because he was lazy, didn't care or had this nonchalant attitude. Anything worth having is worth fighting for. And this isn't limited to say getting a job, this is for all things including but not limited to sports.

I also don't want to date someone who goes easy on people, including me. If we play vid games, don't let me win. I wanna win on my own talent, not your generosity.

You should be easy to talk to. Granted I'm not gonna tell you that my boss hurt my feelings each and everytime; that's what girlfriends and coworkers are there for. But every so often, it would be nice to just open up to you about something that i think is a sensitive issue and is worth getting out. Something I wouldn't wanna share with my friends because they just don't know me the way that you do (or should).

You should (but it isn't necessary) be patient. I am not a patient person. I hate waiting for things. I'm more of make something happen person. So if you're the same way I'll understand. But I would imagine that it would be nice to meet somebody that didn't always feel the need to rush to do things. Someone that could calmly wait for traffic to speed up. Stuff like that.

You don't have to be a neat freak, becuase I keep a tight ship, no matter what. But it would be nice if you could pick up your own things, be able to put stuff a way after you use it and you should know how to work a vaccum cleaner.

You must be aggressive. (This sorta goes with being competitive) If you don't want it badly enough and show that you want it badly enough, why should I care that you want it at all?

I would never want to have to be involved in an abusive relationship so I guess this is more of warning than anything else. Hurt me in anything large or small and I will kill you. Simply because i have too much respect for myself.

Other miscellaneous things:
You shouldn't be a heavy drinker. Smoking I'm kinda iffy about. if you smoke two packs a day, you should form a really close relationship with a nicotine patch simply because I myself am trying to quit and I don't think you'd eb good for me. You should be able to dance, and if not, at least make the attempt. Should be good with kids because I have a lot of younger sibs and too many baby cousins to count. You have to be family oriented. You should have meat on your bones because I'm a biter. For this reason I guess it would be premeditated murder for me to date someone that's anemic because i am known for drawing blood.

Also tatoos in private areas are not recommended. Only because I imagine sex would be more painful than pleasurable for you.

To be honest, I need someone who thinks I'm great, funny, intelligent, cute, everything. Compliments me a lot, and makes nasty remarks sometimes, but without meaning it. (So I can give him a tender bitch slap). Omg. Teh Ego-ness. :')

And I have to like his friends, music taste, clothing, and he must be able to cope with my blabbering and too high imagination. xD

I always fall for my friends. Generally I want guys to be are smart, funny, cute, and easy to talk to. I like the dorky ones.

Sound Devastation · 07-03-2006, 09:28 AM

i like guys who are like me...

honest and sensitive. machoness is not sexy.. he's romantic and sweet but with a obscure sense of humour. My ideal guy is eclectic, intellectual and arty, an english student... a music snob, a book snob, a movie snob, highly opinionated views on society and the arts. we have common interests yet he is able to get me into new things. he's not into money, or football, or cars or clubs or drugs... oh, and his name is Chris and hes my boyfriend, wooo

bruise_violet · 07-03-2006, 10:24 AM

I like boys who are funny. I'm not really into all the romantic stuff, so I don't like soppy, emotional boys. They also have to have a mind of their own. It is good if they like good music, I like to talk a lot about it. Oh, and long hair
