I've got it bad, bad, bad for a man I know. He is married so it goes no further than my imagination, but here is what all you gentlemen need to know: He is *not* handsome at all. Not at all. He is skinny, balding, wears glasses, has an overbite, dresses badly, and is short (emphasis for all you men who have brought up height issues...). When I first met him I was not physically attracted to him in the least. In fact, I thought he was rather funny looking.
What attracted me was his wit, his knowledge, his kindness. He is probably the most genuinely nice person I have ever met, he makes everyone around him feel comfortable and special. He will ask how you are doing, and actually listens to the response. There is nothing fake about him. And he is knowledgeable, articulate and passionate about what he does for a living.
Just something for all you men to think about. It's not what you look like, but who you are...
Agreed. My instructor for International Standard (dance) is a short British guy who is probably one of THE most charming men I have ever known! His height would never be an issue, except for the fact that when we're training, his head is at my chest level, so I don't wear a lot of cleavage.

How long did it take you to feel attraction for him?
Thank you Annie - I only wish it was the same for women. I had this professor in college, I was so in lust with him I could barely contain myself! (I know crush on the professor is cliche, bla bla bla) But it was not about how he looked at all. He was short, he had crooked teeth, his hair was graying, he had very bushy eye brows ... I could go on and on, but you get the picture, he was not conventionally good looking!
What I (and MANY other women) liked about him was that he was just so passionate, funny, smart, charismatic, and charming. The minute he started talking it totally changed how I saw him. He was not just this average looking guy, he was like ... I can't even explain it. It was like everything about him was seductive.
So yes, I can attest to the fact that personality does count!
