Who all out there -doesn't- look for the super manly type of guy?
Posted : 12 Dec, 2009 03:59 PM
I know there are women out there who find guys to be attractive in more ways than just having an assertive ego or looking like the hulk.
So my question to you out there who don't find those traits to be the most important; in your opinion, what's the most attractive trait about a guy? (If that's not too much of a personal question anyway. :goofball: )
And so no one's counted out, if you do go for the macho type, what's next on the Checklist of Attractiveness?
( I haven't browsed the forums much so I apologize if this is already a topic somewhere down the list )

I haven't replied yet, and I think it's fair that everyone who posted here get some kind of recognition. I'm thankful that all of you have pitched in your two cents!
------------------------
Even though I know Fury's post was a reply to goldenstarfish, I'll have to differ his perspective as well as StarFish's. I agree to an extent that you have to find something attractive in your significant other, but that attractiveness doesn't have to be in appearance. The spectrum is vast and numerous as to what traits people find attractive in others.
I actually find it intriguing to think a woman would want a guy to worship the ground she walks on, but that's for a different story. XP
------------------------
To GoldenStarFish: I think what you're doing now is perfect. Instead of trusting other girls' opinions on who they think is the 'cutest' guy, you're relying on your own gut instinct to lead you to the right one. No matter what you find attractive in a guy, go you!

Thank you for taking the time to share that, bcpianogal! For a moment there I became lost in my own self-awareness. That is to say, I don't have a clue of how I look at people. I guess I often make eye-contact, but then my thoughts trail in mid-conversation, thus my eyes follow suit I suppose.

I think a huge part of a relationship is not only getting to know eachother as lovers, but also as best friends. Compassion is kind of rare it seems, so sharing laughter, memories, and even love sounds like a mix for the perfect relationship. Thanks for the insight, Cherished!
Sorry if I missed anyone, but I have to sign off. Thanks again to everyone who replied! ^-^

Sorry, Archie . . . . The cheerleader/football player fantasy ends after High School. College if you're a little on the slow side or are still an unbeliever. (Myself I didn't catch on until I was 40!)
Ladies, we really SHOULD tell these guys when they're laboring under false illusions, shouldn't we?:laugh:
I strongly suspect that Archie is just playing devil's advocate. :devil: But for what it's worth, Christian men in this part of God's Country seem want to meet women wearing Birkenstocks who can keep up with their toy-based lifestyle and high maintenance interests.
I'm surrounded by Christian guys my age who still run 30 miles routinely and train for marathons year round -- not to mention hiking, biking, horseback riding, skiing, and snowmobiling. The rest are ranchers.
I'm exhausted just typing the list.
Dear God . . . Please match me to someone is passionately interested in what YOU are doing and what YOU want ME (as part of a WE) to be doing; and I promise to live a 'fasted lifestyle' and to exercise regularly.
As you know, Jesus, ABBA blessed me this year with wonderful employment; and I work with babies eight hours a day, so I've usually done my quota of push ups, pull ups, throw-ups, squat thrusts, lifts, and bends by the end of the week.
Please, Heavenly Father, send me a grown up who likes to read. I'd love to gaze into his eyes each morning after he's done reading a devotional.
Later in the day, after we count our blessings or enjoy a prayer walk together, I'd love have a tender, intelligent chat about John verse five, six, seven . . .
If sweet praise music is playing in the background and delicious, health food is placed in my mouth periodically, I've checked out and gone to heaven.
In the Name of my Faithful Savior ~:prayingf: And some of God's Helpmates to Be said . . . .

I know of a few women who are attracted to those "metrosexual" kinds of guys. I happen to not be one of them. There's nothing wrong with a guy that always tries to look nice and has perfect hygiene! But a man that behaves like a man, who is decisive, confident, and good with "manly things" (i.e., fixing things, building things, opening really difficult jars (jk)) make it easier for me to feel more like a woman. That's why I am almost always attracted to the "manly
