So...is this what guys REALLY want? - Tilted Forum Project Discussion Community

Minx · 06-09-2003, 02:47 PM

Found this on the web.....supposedly it's the list of things men really want.

Well.......then why the hell am I still single?

Anyone have anything to add to the list?

1. Spark
She smiles. She laughs. She asks questions. This gal's interested in new adventures, people and the world around her. She's electric and alive and has that certain spark that keeps guys interested.

2. Sizzle
She's confident and knows she's attractive — inside and out. Look out: This kind of sizzle can be contagious.

3. Smarts
She can talk business and philosophy, movies and sports. Her intelligent insights and straightforward communication are intoxicating.

4. Flirt-ability
Genuine compliments come easily to her, and she's sincere when she talks about your positive points. It's the way she pouts her lips and grins knowingly that fires her flirt-ability.

5. Honesty
How can you resist her amazing ability to be direct without bruising your ego with brutal honesty? This girl can teach you a thing or two about diplomacy, dude.

6. Independence
She radiates self-reliance and the freedom of her own spirit. She really has it going on and is happy with herself and her life. Remember: She chooses to date you.

7. Femininity
Just when you think nothing can faze her, she shies away from horror flicks and shrieks when she sees a mouse. Sometimes it's sexy to be her hero.

8. Chemistry
She clicks with you in so many unexpected ways — not only sharing the same likes, dislikes, interests, goals and desires, but also enjoying your friends and family.

Sounds about right.

bundy · 06-09-2003, 04:07 PM

yep... thats pretty much exactly what i want. throw in an accent and i'm sold.

NuKE · 06-09-2003, 04:33 PM

i disagree with number 2.

Meridae'n · 06-09-2003, 04:43 PM

Moderation is the key with number two.

Maybe add: doesn't really care about what strangers think of her, and doesn't need to flirt and carry on to feel she is beautiful.

rockzilla · 06-09-2003, 05:04 PM

About the only thing missing is a sense of humour.

.....and huge tits

Meridae'n · 06-09-2003, 05:26 PM

I tried very hard to not say that myself...

Stiltzkin · 06-09-2003, 05:42 PM

Personally I'm not into huge tits. I like breasts a hanful size, maybe a bit bigger, but not too much. All of that sums it up, just that just as women, dudes are all different (although not completely, as we all [straight] dudes love chicks

). Just depends on individual tastes.

DelayedReaction · 06-09-2003, 05:52 PM

That's about right, although I agree on moderation with number 2. Kudos on rockzilla mentioning the sense of humor.

Does this woman exist? Sure. Will she go out with me? Probably not.

sngx1275 · 06-09-2003, 07:02 PM

Agree with majority of replies here, must be careful with #2. Also humor needs to be in there somewhere. So yeh, everything said so far except the huge tits.

sierra2774 · 06-09-2003, 07:49 PM

I have all of those qualities!

What else do Men want??

Peetster · 06-09-2003, 07:59 PM

That's about it, actually. If you have these qualities and you haven't connected to that guy, then you need to expose yourself more. Get out. Find that guy.

Jaiddin · 06-09-2003, 08:08 PM

have heard a different kinda of list.
lemme see if i can paraphrase it

A man looks for 3 qualities in the perfect woman.

1) Calm, self assured, sense of humor. sharing likes and dislikes
2) makes her man feel needed for the simple manly things, like opening the pickle jar
3) while maintaning her dignity and chaste innocence on the outside, she is yer personal slut in the bedroom.

or something along those lines.. been a while since i seen it

Basically if you have those qualities, and are a genuine type of person (and you certainly sound like you are) then there's no reason for you to be single. What type of bloke do you look for? Sometimes it seems that some girls complain about how certain guys are, but then go looking for that exact type...

Quo8 · 06-09-2003, 08:24 PM

I'm kewl with most of those. I'd have to say a I like sizzle but not too much of it and she's has to be a decent listener too.

Quo

Minx · 06-09-2003, 08:50 PM

Wow...I love the thoughts posted here.....the thing is guys, sometimes it's not easy for girls who are like that (and oh ya, we do actually exist) to get out and go .... for lack of a better word....looking.
And...kudo's on the humor thing - and oh...sports, please God, find me a man who will let me watch football on Sunday!

TaiModan · 06-09-2003, 08:52 PM

heh... the biggest problem has been stated.... most of us, altho able to find that woman, will stand little or no chance of getting anywhere with her. But it is a fairly accurate summation of a great personality... with some modification.

Thraeryn · 06-09-2003, 08:54 PM

I like breasts about that size:
<--------------------

As for sports, I hate sports. It's not about typical guy things: it's about shared interests. Say it with me, boys and girls.

KeyserSoze · 06-09-2003, 09:40 PM

I just want someone that is not:

Superficial or Materialistic

Whacked in the head

Oh........I forgot I live in Lost Angeles..........never mind

I'm dreaming again

BBtB · 06-09-2003, 09:50 PM

Most of those were pretty much on target for me. Humor is also a must. Most of those are just plusses though.

One thing I will say. Nothing turns ME on more then a girl in distress. I know that sounds sorta sexist but still. Its even better if she IS a strong girl but right now she is in distress. Because well for one a drama queen is NOT what i want. Two because I feel like a hero more so. But I DO love strong girls. I just like... being the hero every so often.

BoCo · 06-09-2003, 10:01 PM

The list is pretty much complete in my opinion.

Now, can anyone set me up with a girl like that???

DelayedReaction · 06-09-2003, 10:24 PM

I think a major part of it is just finding that connection with someone. Some people click, others don't. That's pretty much how I see it anyhow, and I've been rather active in terms of finding people.

More than anything else I look for someone who is genuinely engaging and interesting to be around. Someone honest and forthcoming, who enjoys the same things I do and doesn't mind sharing time with me while doing them.

Sexy librarian-type glasses don't hurt either.

hotzot · 06-09-2003, 10:51 PM

did someone say she has to be good at giving oral sex?

Ashton · 06-09-2003, 11:17 PM

duckduck · 06-09-2003, 11:36 PM

Similar outlook/goals/beliefs about life. I think you need to share these things. Otherwise you may end up going different directions in life. When you go in different directions, I think it's hard to stick together. I still believe in the whole 2 becoming 1 working towards a common goal thinger. 0ld sk00l me

Minx, you can watch for me. Not a big football fan.

And I couldn't agree more on the humor. Humor is most important to me. If you can make me laugh I'm almost sold.

How about "Understanding"

Understanding would be good.
