What draws you in?

While I have yet to get the guts to actually talk to a woman "in that way" I would say, as long as she is not HIDEOUS, the number one thing that intrigues me about women is wether or not they have an unusual intrest. I once saw this thing on televison about art and their was this woman who collected and made murals out of circuit boards...

AND THEN there was this girls's myspace page I ran into. I am not on myspace ( not enough friends) but I was googling slime molds, and this girl's myspace page came up. Thing is, she is really into them and collects and breeds them and wrote extensively on them. They are one of the few examples of movement with a central nervous system, as they can all form one mold and move around, despite being a fungus...and she was cute too!

She also listened to ambient music, but only if it was on cassett, as she is a big fan on analog...IF ONLY SHE DIDN'T LIVE HALF A CONTINET AWAY! (she's in Vancover, BC, I'm in Jersey)

I would be allot more intrested in a so-so lucking girl reading a book about the history of Route 66 ( the famous road, not the cheap clothing line) than I would a "hottie" reading a Vogue, US weekly or Cosmo.


Ultimately, it's the whole "cute-to-average looking nerdette" thing that get's my temperature rising

My criteria are simple:

1. Does she have a wedding ring (hopefully not!)
2. Is she breathing?

Kidding!!!

Not being anywhere near God's gift to women, I have learned to sit back and watch women (NOT in a stalking manner! ). In that, I normally will have watched a woman for a while before I even try to approach her.

That said, what will make me want to approach her are:

Did she laugh (genuinely)?
Did her eyes talk for her at times?
If she was talking and I could hear, did she display intelligent thoughts?
Was she comfortable in her appearance?

Just sitting there watching that, I will know whether she's even approachable by someone like me. If any of those are normally "no" then it's not even worth wasting my time because she probably wouldn't give me the time of day.

If she has an opinion that makes me think. If she takes me on an adventure that invigorates me. It could be an adventure to the local homeless shelter doesn't have to be Africa.

Don't lie. You really want to find a lady who will take you through the jungles of Africa and South America.

You have a good list started-I would suggest you think about adding the word -kind. Most women I have met with your above criteria are also kind.

all of this talk from people that ind love online.. you all are very lucky! the two men i met online were real douche bags. i always seem to fall for the badboy type. i dont really know what they like about me but it is probably a physical thing because i have been told that i have a very strong intimidating personality.

Eh, you advertise for that kinda guy, that's the kinda guy you get...look for someone who at least seems intelligent and capable of expressing his emotions, and you might wind up with THAT guy...

Is having "a very strong intimidating personality" a polite way of saying that you come across as being abrasive and b*tchy? If so, you may be scaring off the nice normal guys. Every should have a personality, but usually in the beginning of the friendship, people are more polite and considerate of each other. Since you aren't happy with the two men that you ended up with, you may want to think about softening your approach with people. And you seem like a nice person yourself, so maybe being intimidating is a defense mechanism of some sort on your part.

And how is having a strong personality a physical thing?
