do you think you have a type?


Recommended Posts

2.50 a gallon

For me she had to fall in the Goldilocks zone, not too thin, not too short, about 105 to 125 pounds, long legs preferred, C-Breasts.  Anything out of that zone, and I was not sexually interested.  And there was nothing I could do about it.

I used to have a physical type when I was younger - but after dating about three people that fit that description, I went off that a bit. Since those three, I've dated a mixture of physical types, but I often involuntarily end up in relationships with more dominant people, which is something I'm trying to change!

Smart women who come from humble backgrounds tend to be the ones I connect best with.

Not really externally. But personality-wise I would say I have - as an adult - preferred men who are funny, with a healthy sense of humor, humble, normal guys really. No drama. Not aggressive. Somebody who is confident doing his thing. No matter really what the “thing” is. And if they have their s*** together, I am usually all in. When I was younger, obviously the guy had to be hot as s*** and attractive and aggressive - the dominator in all situations. All that  is so unattractive to me these days. I think I have matured out of it. Glad I did

Like some others have pointed out, there is physical type, and personality type.

For me, personality trumps physical. For instance, if I find a guy has a really attractive personality, even though me might not be my physical ideal, I can find him attractive.

And conversely, if a guy is physically my type, but his personality isn't - I won't find him attractive.

I have dated guys I thought were HOT HOR HOT, but I always knew it would be a temporary thing because either they personality traits that wouldn't cut it as far as compatibility in the long run.

And of course I have limits, a guy could have a really compatible personality, but if he has some of my physical deal breakers, it's not going to happen.

My "type"? Smart, confident, a bit cocky, FUNNY, and did I mention smart?

Physically - athletic, broad shoulders, good smile, nice eyes.

A type for me is just being a caring, funny and has ambition. I do notice though not to change the subject that a lot of blonde girls like guys with dark hair and brown eyes. A lot of brunette girls like guys with blue eyes and light hair. Why is this a trend? I'm blonde and blue eyed and this has happened to me.

I have a couple types.  They can overlap... or not.

1) Ginger red-heads. (Pale, freckles, green eyes)  I dated one like this in my younger years, and it was a total turn on.  There was also one I was introduced to after my divorce... but it just didn't click.

2) Short girls.  I dated a girl who was 4'7" when I was young, and loved her deeply.  My current GF is 4'11".  I don't know what it is... but they "Fit" so much better.  When you are holding them... or lying in bed.  (You don't have a face full of hair)  I'm 6', so when we hug... her head is in my chest.

3) Not thin.  I don't like to hold a girl and feel bones poking me. I'm not saying I wan't a "Big" girl... but I don't mind a little meat.  

4) Intelligent enough to have good conversations.  I simply don't do stupid.  I want to be able to have a good conversation on current events, or about something she or I are passionate about. 

#4 is my only "Must have" point.  I don't care if I have the most beautiful short ginger, with soft curves, and stunning green eyes standing in front of me... if she is STUPID... I will lose interest in one date.

I can't really say I've got a concrete type but there's definitely been a thread when it comes to who has peaked my interest - and it's usually girls who tend to have a bit of an aggressive demeanour. I'm not a particularly submissive guy at all but I'm relatively laid-back in comparison to most of the women I've been attracted to. 

Physically, that's varied over time but on average I've mostly been an absolute sucker for buxom, black/mixed raced/middle eastern or mediterranean women. Usually with dark brown eyes and curly hair.

My 'type' has morphed so many times over the years that it's fair to say that I don't have one.

Or could it mean just that? As in, our preferences may change over time?

I guess I might have a type - and it probably isn't what I expected it to be.

I was attracted to fun, friendly brunettes in high school. But in my adult life I seem to keep attracting introverted blondes for long term relationships. For anything short term though, it's been a real mixed bag.
