Are females looking for a physical attraction or a real relationship with a good guy. What are you really looking for? Its really hard for me on here because I don't know what women want on here. Im looking for something real so looks are not everything. Personality last longer and it makes a real relationship.

Physical attracts me/personality keeps me.....

In reality, we all want the same things, no?

so you'd be ok with a woman who liked you but wasn't physically attracted to you????

One who would be your friend/gf...yet never kiss you because she didn't find you physically appealling????

Sorry but physical attraction is a big deal....but so is personality, and compatibility.

why can't we have it all?

Both of course. Is this a trick question?

I agree. All of these things are necessary. A man doesn't need to be super attractive. But he should be at least okay looking.

And remember beauty is in the eye of the beholder...what one woman finds hot, I will not.

I want someone who likes the same things I do plus a bit more, I want my world opened up by this person. I want them to make me think about things from a different perspective.

For me, looks are nice but they last about 15 minutes until a guy opens his mouth. If he has a chance with me, I know it in about 15 minutes of conversation, and I let them know. And vice versa, why waste time?
Everyone is on here for different reasons, so your question has no one answer.

OP,
Just be yourself. Women will always find out the truth if you try to be fake! Some women may find you attractive some may not. What may be attractive to one, may not for the other. Stick with it, your time will come.

I agree with all the other women in this thread and may I add: You have 5 pics, 3 of which you are mean mugging and the other 2 it look like it was painful for you to crack a smile. I think you need some more pleasant looking photos.

Bottom line, we are on a dating site and no one knows what your personality is until they actually get to know you. A person isn't going to try and get to know you (especially on an online dating site) unless they have some sort of attraction to you.

This has to be the most asked question.... (thread search)

But even if you did a thread search, you still will not get a 'list' to answer your Q.

Us "Females" (geeze that always sounds so clinical!)....Women...are individuals! Yes! We really are!

We all want individual things....just like you 'Males'....or guys.

If you're frustrated, just remember that this is not fast food or a catalog.
You just have to be patient....oft times longer than you'd like.



Man, I'm a stinker when I'm tired! I apologize ahead of time.
Good luck to ya!

Night night ~

I don't know. I've always found that a persons attitude and spirit make them more attractive all the time. I've dated women who were conventionally unattractive that over time became beautiful to me. On the flip I've gone out with traditionally beautiful women that at the end were sinfully ugly. Beauty fades spirit is forever.

My recipe for a fantastic date!

Honestly................

Women are looking for one man to fulfill their every desire.

But of course, that guy won't brag about being able to do that. He'll just.............do it.

Do yourself a favor and have some fun at the same time. Conduct an experiment, you currently know what your response rate is and you can reasonably assume your response rate is based upon your attraction level that women find in your profile. Now do not change your photos and rewrite your profile to say: "Established CEO of a local fortune 500 publicly traded company earning 600k a year and living in a beautiful four million dollar personal residence." Regardless of what your physical appeal may be, I can assure you your attraction level will rise 10,000 percent instantaneously.

I look for an intellectual, emotional and physical attraction. A great personality will
hold my attention and allow me to get to know them one-on-one, and allow a relationship to emerge if given time.
So, I'm looking for someone I connect to in a way I don't with others, and I am looking to date and to take a relationship into a LTR.

Looks matter in general, don't kid yourself, unless someone got beat badly with the ugly stick then anyone's fair game. Hey it's reality.
It varies from person to person the level of attraction needed and how flexible someone is. The mental, emotional and spiritual aspects are most important.
Physically, I wouldn't like a fatty, more people can admit to this and it seems acceptable and to also tack on the stereotypes (lazy, slob) even though it might be genetic yet it's somewhat worse to admit to facial attraction. They amount to the same thing. I also prefer a similar level of attractiveness. One less "superficial" and deceptive reason for a less attractive guy to chase me only because of physical appearance because it boosts his ego. Even playing field. Also, I look for complementary physical traits. Guess what? We're wired that way. So people shouldn't be too quick to accuse others for their inherent preferences. And it's to give offspring the best chance in life. Like it or not, beauty leads to more opportunities in this realm. Not success just opportunities. Do guys have trouble with this concept?
When looks will cease to matter? When we're all old, saggy and wrinkly and find ourselves in the dating pool then it's free access to all oldies.

First and foremost, Nachos and Salsa, lol.

Now thAt the truth has set me free, I am also looking for physical attraction (which varies for everyone). But, also need an emotional connection too. Someones personality, will either make me more or less physically attracted to a man. So I will just go with the everything answer.

Best of luck to you OP, and yes we do read your profile.

I'm looking for a real relationship with a ''hot'' guy. and what is 'hot' to me is different for all other women.

Seriously I dont know how many women are willing to date a guy who doesn't find them physically attractive. That would be like a let down if the guy said oh well i like you for your personality...looks don't matter.
