Everyone has a type, I know that, but the last few guys I've been interested in have shown me pictures of their ex wives and they look VERY similar TO ME! One guy's ex wife even has the same stats as me, including hair and eye color.

 

Anyone else notice this or admit to doing this? Does it mean they're not over their ex or they just have a very specific type of woman they like?

I haven't had any personal experience with that, but my ex (now bf again) has.

 

He was hanging out with this girl that looked exactly like me. Same hair color, style, eye color... the only thing different was the build of our bodies. He wasn't dating her, because she is engaged to someone else, but i'm sure that if she wasn't he would have attempted a relationship with her.

 

When I asked him about this, he admitted that he found it very pathetic that he had to hang around girls that look just like me because they reminded him of me.

I've noticed that I seem to be a type for my ex's: long auburn hair, tall and thin.

 

My ex's have been tall, dark and handsome or blonde. I don't really have a type... I'm more attracted to personality and health than looks.

Holy shyte! Yep... it's uncanny for sure. I've seen photos of the ex's exs, and met one. It feels a little weird, but I always *knew* I was the better one! :p

 

It does make sense though because certain types do catch my eye more than others... I just never really went for it; I've always responded.

Oh i'm sure that's not the case with everyone, that's just from my experience with it.

 

Some people have very strict physical standards they stick to.

Good thing I gave up on dating...but I don't know if I'd necessarily do this if I were to date...

I go for dark hair and blue eyes, always!

 

I tell the boys it's b/c I don't want to taint my blue eyed gene pool! lol
