It’s a Friday night, and you’re out on the town. Out for drinks with your friends, or ready to let it all out on the dance floor. You’ve made it past the front door and what’s next? We all know the feeling – we scan the room until finally there he is. You’ve found you’re guy and he’s everything you’re looking for at first glance – ‘physically’ that is. Yes, we’re talking about that initial attraction ladies. First impressions are important – so what do you look for when glancing a room? What sets him apart from all of the other guys who may or may not be staring at your TNA while you strut around in your little black dress? It’s a tough question but we all have a ‘type’ and if you’re lucky enough to get past the glancing and manage to initiate a conversation, what do you look for while trying to figure him out. We asked around and here’s what we got:
Style & Personality – Every girl wants a guy who’s confident. Confidence is sexy, cockiness is not! There’s a fine line between the two and no girl wants to listen to a guy talk too much about himself. If you can make a girl feel comfortable and laugh then the conversation is going in the right direction and 9/10 we’ll always stick around for more. We HATE pick up lines – 99% of them are lame and they don’t work! Personality ties in with style, and the way a guy is dressed says a lot about his personality. Check him out carefully and don’t forget the shoes!
What keeps him busy? No girl wants a guy who sits on his ass all day while mommy and daddy give him a weekly cheque so he can take you out. We don’t care if the Benz you’re driving was a gift from your mom - get a job and a hobby! You may be hot and have a sexy car – but if you’re not supporting yourself, don’t think we’ll be doing it either. We like guys who have things to do. Whether they’re keeping themselves busy with school or work or both, it tells us they’re working towards something.
Hygiene – It doesn’t matter if he has washboard abs, ladies, if your guy smells like his dinner word of advice: RUN! It’s happened, I’ve witnessed it. The boy is as fine as a ticket on the dash and he’s caught you checking him out, so he walks over, leans in to introduce himself and before you can even take in his name, you’ve figured out his favourite wing sauce. Dinner before a night out is great, but pop a breath mint or something before you try picking us up.
Entourage – What are his friends like, or did he come with any friends at all. If a girl see a guy by himself at bar/club (or anywhere else for the matter) she wonders why he’s alone in the first place. If his friends are cool, fun (and added bonus also really cute), your friends can be kept busy which makes hanging out with your guy that much easier.
Age is nothing but a number? – Putting aside your day dreaming about Brad Pitt or Cloony, or the 25 year olds who are waiting for Justin Bieber’s voice to change, age is important to us but how important is it? Every girl is different but the question will come up in the first ten minutes. Just remember, don’t write your guy off simply because he was born 35 seconds after you. Give him a chance, he may just surprise you.
There you have it girls. You said it and we blogged it. We all do it, it’s almost as if we carry a personal notepad and check off whether guys pass or not as we’re meeting them. Just remember, guys don’t think like we do and we’re always going to over-think and over-analyze because we’re girls and its what we do. Let’s all try and stay a little grounded and just go with the flow instead, it’s so much easier that way!
Interesting how this article addresses male female interaction after the physical barrier has been breached. It'd be enticing to see your perspective on how less attractive couples come to be; i.e., how is it that some males (or females for that matter), who aren't as blessed in the aesthetic department, manage to bag a partner who's blatantly more attractive than the other. What if a man or woman who possessed the attributes listed above was never acknowledged, simply because of their sub-par physical appearance?
