    When someone is intelligent, curious and passionate when they talk, when they're just "switched on" and engaged I find it very attractive, and that makes up for a lot for me looks wise. Also someone who doesn't underestimate me, can keep up, and doesn't project their baggage or insecurities on me (big ask I know)

    Physically in an ideal scenario, tall, long ish hair, broad good shoulders, great thighs, nice hands... I don't want much!

    In reality most of the men I've dated, have been way more on the nerdy side and look nothing like the above so the 1st paragraph is most relevant.

    Eyes that light up.
    Cheeky smile
    Long legs a bonus


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,460 ✭✭✭✭DrPhilG


    Aside from the usual, long hair is my weakness. The likes of Angelina Jolie in her prime, or Salma Hayek any time were/are absolutely gorgeous with their hair down.

    Obviously that's just one aspect. Stick a long hair wig on Theresa May and it ain't cutting it. But my point is that long hair is often the first thing I'll notice when a pretty girl walks past.

    Ah damn.. I had a post all written up, but accidentally clicked back on the phone..

    What I like in a woman :
    - relaxed, upfront attitude and sense of humour. Ideally you can be completely comfortable with each other
    - knows herself and her own mind and what she wants and can express it
    - can hold a conversation about more than soaps, social media or celebrity shyte
    - nice eyes, cheeky smile and cheeky streak to go with it
    - curves. The wafer thin look does nothing for me.

    Turn offs :
    - drama, game playing or hot and cold nonsense
    - drug use or excessive alcohol consumption
    - not a big fan of tattoos, especially if they've loads of them. Same applies to multiple piercings or "loud" hair colours
    - high maintenance princesses. I like to treat someone right and do nice things for them anyway, but no interest in being an ATM either.

    I don't want much, do I? As it's AH though, PM me ladies :p

    I'm impatient, selfish, a little insecure. I make mistakes, I am out of control and at times hard to handle. But if you can't handle me at my worst, then you sure as hell don't deserve me at my best.

    The ability to both accept and scorn a well delivered fart in equal measure...but more seriously to be witty, fun loving and clued to in to general affairs and finally to live in the now ( something I really need to work on) rather than the past or future.

    Ps...plus zero pretentiousness

    I would describe myself as technical and obsessed by logic and practicality. I would choose rebuilding an engine over a rock concert, and the chipper to a meal out or the cinema. I am somewhere between normal and Mr. Logic from Viz.

    I got called to do a job on the roof of a large urban building where a rare bird was nesting, I was troubleshooting a broadcast camera installation for a media company. I was accompanied on the roof by a french lady who worked for the company, she was attractive and intelligent if somewhat overdressed for the job (she was dressed like she was going out for a posh meal).

    We were on the roof, I found the fault, but I needed a crimp tool which I had left in my toolbox one floor down, I asked her to wait a while I went for the tools. She opened her stylish handbag and produced a leatherman multipurpose tool and a roll of insulation tape and said in a soft french accent "will these help". I felt an immediate attraction (and a bit of a twitch from Junior).

    Do I need help ?

    If you had asked me 4 months ago I would have listed off a list of purely physical attributes.

    Then I woke up one morning and realized I had a thing for my best friend that’s a girl.she is obviously really beautiful but I never noticed before. The reason I developed feelings is that she is the most kind generous person I have ever met. She is the best mum to her two kids and is the funniest person I know. Anyway I told her how I felt and she said we are better off as friends.

    So yea big t1ts and an arse you can spin a 50 cent piece on.

    What! :confused: You don't absolutely love a story that begins like...

    Ah yes, I remember it well, it was April, 1963. I was living in 23, Hollow Oaks Crescent in Harlesden, with Big Monaghan John, Oliver Rua and Fitzy from Kildare. Monaghan John had a green Ford Cortina. I was earning 7 shillings and thrupence a week at the time.

    ...this? Why, you Monster!! :pac:

    (Good storytellers are as rare as hens teeth. I know 2. Both are actors as well. One is a woman, and the man is a well known Irish playwright. To have that kind of charisma, confidence, generosity of spirit and to also instinctively embody the art of drama is quite special. With everyone else,himself included, I am - For the love of Jesus will you hurry up and get to the place where you wrap this up!)

    I find attractive -
    Kindness
    Smartness
    Humour and wit
    Self awareness
    Height and physical strength - though from time to time all the rest is embodied in a smaller form and is still incredibly attractive.
    Humility in the face of the unknowable cosmos.

    Slim women who look after themselves who look as good in jeans as they do in a skirt.

    A woman can be as intelligent and kind as you like but if she is a fat mess who doesnt mind surplus hair she is being left on the shelf.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,039 ✭✭✭✭retro:electro


    Sense of humour. Nice teeth. Someone who marches to their own beat but not in an annoying way. Confident but not cocky. Can comfort and reassure me when I need it but also put me in my place when I need that too. Someone clued in on what’s going on in the world and who you can go to a little pub alone with and still be there six hours later deep in chat (and wine)

    so often i think its my imagination's fault for being attracted to someone who is tall, creative, self taught; and very important, can talk more than I do (we're both foreign, so cultural differences constantly "enrich" our communication).


  • Site Banned Posts: 12,341 ✭✭✭✭Faugheen


    Tig ol' bitties.

    Joking aside, I like someone who doesn't take themselves seriously. Someone who asks you about you rather than asking about themselves because it shows to me they're not self-centred.

    I also like a nice smile. They can be infectious.

    A nice elbow triangle on a lady is great, ideally 45 degree angle, using only the left arm.
    http://waterfordwhispersnews.com/2018/11/15/****-this-im-taking-back-control/

    Careful not to use both arms, as visualy it's just too much all at once.

    Humour. Properly funny women are sexy women, doesn't matter much what they look like physically. Any well known women i might find attractive are known more for their comedic writing or performance than hollywood good looks.

    Other than that, women that might catch my eye in the real world tend to look very natural and highlight what God gave them rather than a plastic pastiche, confidentally curvy, dark hair, dark eyes. And I agree with others before, glasses are cute AF.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 22,262 ✭✭✭✭Autosport


    For starters they should at least be Male :D

    Sense of humour
    Honesty
    Doesn't take themselves too seriously
    Easy going

    Basically me :D

    And none of this Ghosting crap.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 710 ✭✭✭ginandtonicsky


    Eyes. Dark and brooding or light and twinkly. Noteworthy eyes, especially when staring at you intensely.

    Good teeth, strong arms, infectious laugh, hint of aftershave, pokes fun at himself and a massive flirt. I'll probably fall for any guy that flirts with me hard.
