    :eek: god damn it how much i wish i could do that... nearly got it once *sigh*

    i love it when that special someone does something unexpected. the current beau was looking at me in bed once and had this sudden change on his face like he'd got this great idea. i'm just about to ask what is he thinking when he just gave my face a big old lick :) i dunno why but it was hilarious and sort of crazy cute :o

    he's so going to kill me when he reads that :p

    Well, ladies and gentlemen!
    Let's have them :)

    Quirky or unusual things you like or find attractive about the opposite, or your preferred sex!
    :D

    I'm a huge fan of guys with glasses.
    I always notice them ahead of guys who don't wear them!
    I just find them sexy :/

    My BF needs glasses to drive.. He won't wear them unless he needs to but, OMG if he knew the things that go through my head when I see him in them he'd have them welded to his face... Grrrrrrrrrr I have no idea what it is but they make me crazy.. It's just so , Clark Kent O_o wowzers

    I have freckles :D
    Shame about the spots and bitten nails though - must try harder to be more low maintenance!

    How is having spots and biting your nails low maintenance. One is something you can't control hormones, skin type and all that...the other is a bad habit, thats like saying being a smoker is low maintenance. :rolleyes:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,414 ✭✭✭kraggy


    Hopefully no woman ever said that to you! :D

    Oh the ironing, what with your username and that statement.

    Epic.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 6,414 ✭✭✭kraggy


    little stuby ones are really unattractive

    Braces. Weird, but there you have it.

    I suppose it was bad wording choice, but it was late, so let me away with it :P

    I am very high-maintenance with my looks though, I spend ages cleansing and moisturising and doing my nails - they're purple, en ce moment!

    Something that drives me wild about men ; when they wear white shirts.
    I just think they look amazing on!
    Black shirts too.

    Things I like...

    Loads of quirky stuff.

    Nice clean feet with healthy toe nails, very attractive.

    Clean teeth, not whitened ones or perfect ones..

    Nothing worse than when someone smiles with manky teeth!! Yuck!:eek:


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 110 ✭✭AnnieB82


    crap, I need to sort out my stubby nails :)

    Thankfully my partner doesn't seem to mind.

    I'm also ghostly white and have given up on fake tan a looong time ago. I hardly wear any make up - mainly because I couldn't be bothered. I just look like a ghost or something as I am so pale and fair.

    I love mens long bony hands for some reason, and nice longish hair,and a shy smile! I wouldn't be against some muscle, but it is not important to me.

    I also like converse, but seriously stuff like clothes and shoes on guys doens't matter at all to me in most cases. ( with the exception of a guy wearing leather trousers and/or tank tops - *shudder!)

    It's mad though who you end up with as I always preferred dark haired guys. My partner preferred red heads. We're both natural blondes and it just does not matter one bit!

    Hehe. I'll bet you were delighted to hear that blokes like them. :)

    I just remembered....the first girl I ever fancied (I mean really fancied....and later snogged) had braces. I wonder if that's a thing. Anyway....I'm rambling.

    /me stops rambling.

    I guess it makes me feel more comfortable about having them! Mainly because I'm used to guys approaching me to ask when they're coming off, rather than to compliment them! :P

    Oi, I'm not that easy!

    I actually have very strange, selected taste in men! I'm not into stereotypically 'good looking' generic guys at all - I like something a bit different! (Not Marilyn Manson different, mind you!)

    Yeah, I bite my nails and use face wash every evening to get the days grit and grime off my face, I buy expensive shampoo though :rolleyes:

    I find girls that wear braces really cute :).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,462 ✭✭✭Orla K


    I love it when a guy wears combats and a t-shirt what makes it even better is if he's covered in a slight layer of dirt/dust but it has to be the right type of dirt, not builder dirt outdoor dirt but the dusty kind not a mucky kind, the best kind being when he gos for a run/walk in the woods.

    The only problem with this is I met a male friend who was like this, confused the hell out of me, I didn't know what to think.

    I also like guys that can be incredibly childish at times. Like after a night out some of us went to get food, there was a small girl(4/5) going around all the tables skipping. When we got up most of us crawled out but one of the guys(6foot something in combats) started skipping after the girl he even stuck is elbows to his sides and twirled his arms. He scared the child and she ran off crying but seeing both of them skipping with delight was the funnest thing I've seen him do.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,073 ✭✭✭sam34


    quirky things i like in a guy?

    winking
    being a little shy and bashful (not socially phobic, but not arrogant either... it's a fine line!)
    i dig the glasses thing too
    receding hair line


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,121 ✭✭✭Censorsh!t


    I don't like guys who are very muscley, I like skinny guys and I like hip bones. A bit of muscle can be ok, as long as it's not too much. I also can't stand the rugby type of guy, arrrrrrrgh!

    I have a thing for guys with a nice bitta hair, not very long, but just a nice bit.

    Guys with nose rings (if it suits them).

    Guys who love animals. I really like that.

    Shy guys. Cute:)

    Hmm...

    *Shower -fresh boys
    *Shyness can be really cute.
    *Not really a quirk, but intelligence is possibly the most attractive thing in the
    world to me.
    * +1 on glasses wearers.
    * Pretty hands :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 228 ✭✭MadgeBadge


    Glasses= hot
    Geek chic= hot
    Big hands
    Shy smiles
    Wild hair


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 682 ✭✭✭illiop


    I love the Converse thing too and men with nice backs...i don't even know what a nice back is but...i love them. Also shaggy, messy hair and despite the fact I'm tall and only like boys taller than me all short boys are instantly attractive, i know that doesn't make sense but it's true.
    Personality wise I love when boys have slightly odd/artistic interests or when they openly laugh at me when i say silly things, I hate it when they act like they don't notice I've said something ridiculous (which is quite often).


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,428 ✭✭✭Aisling(",)


    i love grabable hair.keeps me happy.

    and belts i love lads wearing belts.weird i know.

    i like backs and shoulders too.

    and chubby lads.makes them more squeezeable

    TOTALLY with you!

    I have a major thing for nerds!
    :D

    And big hands...
    I guess they're just very ... suggestive ;)


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 19,183 ✭✭✭✭Will


    tattoos and piercings amazingly :rolleyes: really make me go weak at the knees. And smallness. My girlfriend possesses all these and more :) Lucky me :D


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,440 ✭✭✭GirlInterrupted


    I like lots of body hair, especially chests and preferably in conjunction with a hairy back and shoulders too.:)
    I'm fond of big hands too, they just seem capable and reassuring to me.
    But most of all I like a nice smile. It doesn't have to be perfect, just genuine.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,288 ✭✭✭pow wow


    They just smell and feel amazing. :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,900 ✭✭✭Quality


    Clean hands and finger nails..

    For obvious reasons...:cool:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,686 ✭✭✭Kersmash


    Lower back dimples.
    Curves.
    Paleness.
    Redheads.
    Hilarious facial expressions.

    I think this is again falling dangerously close to anything male;)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,883 ✭✭✭shellyboo


    I love...

    Forearms and hands, especially when they're wrapped round me!
    That little nook between a guy's collarbone ad his neck. My nose/lips live there :)
    Broad chests make good pillows
    Thighs. I love nice manly thighs.
    Brown eyes/black curly hair combo. I am powerless to resist.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 867 ✭✭✭giddybootz


    Dark curly hair....bestest boy hair!!

    Strong hands and arms....I love love love strong manly hands!!

    A tiny little pot belly/beer belly on an otherwise slender guy!! It makes me melty!

    A good, contagious laugh absolutly kills me...especially on a shy(ish) guy!!

    Oh yes, good quality tattoos ftw. Some of the ones on the bodymod forum are absolutely amazing. I find sh*t ones (i.e. scratched in by your mate) a massive turn off.

    What are lower back dimples?


  • Moderators, Science, Health & Environment Moderators, Society & Culture Moderators Posts: 60,170 Mod ✭✭✭✭Wibbs


    I'm the same with the lower back dimples on a woman. Not all of them have them though. Forearms and tight upper arms can get me revved. small boned women. I don't mean fat wise, I mean delicate. Small waist. Those two horizontal neck lines that men don't have. Tats don't do it for me though.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.

    I am also a fan of girls with slight "imperfections '' and who wear glasses to .I also find chunky tanned thighs ( like the ones in previos post ) nice


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 747 ✭✭✭WillieCocker


    A great ass and preferably......one i can balance my cup of coffee on.:)


  • Moderators, Music Moderators Posts: 25,870 Mod ✭✭✭✭Doctor DooM


    Seeing a lady engaging in an extreme and unexpected act of kindness always does it for me. Not necessarily kind to me: Just knowing thats the person she is.

    Or a lady who is more intelligent than me. (Admittedly not difficult)

    Or a lady who loves animals. Again I think it's the kindness thing.

    I get the "dark" personality thing too. Nocturnal forum, see?

    I also like pale and interesting, but I don't consider that weird- I consider wanting tanned, fake and makeupped to the nines weird. Why be interested in something which is faked? Or someone who cares more about appearance than the world they live in?

    sorry if that offends anyone, just being honest about what quirks attract me. It's a sad fact about the human race that seeing an act of kindness is a quirk :(

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,115 ✭✭✭magicianz


    Love girls who could talk for hours on any small random thing but she still knows when to be serious, shy girls are great! Girls who dress casual, braces are unreal once they suit her face, hug-ability is a major factor! I was told im the best hugger in my group so i cant go giving them out to anyone :-P


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,879 ✭✭✭Kya1976
