What is it that floats your boat?

Boys and girls, what exactly is it about the opposite/same sex that gets the blood flowing. Is it always physical to some extent, or is it a case that the more esoteric aspects of a person are the ones that come to the fore.

Is it possible to get to a stage whereby the physical attributes of a person become immaterial, or will there always have to be some level of physical attraction?

Personality first , if they cant make me laugh then its not gonna work
Always notice a mans teeth though , and love when they have a bit of facial hair , have a thing for Russel Brand weirdly enough

If a guy makes me laugh it doesn't matter about anything else.

Interesting - I always figured that this was the paper answer but that in practice, if there wasn't the physicality to back it up then it was doomed to begin with.

Is there a line to be drawn?

Bewbs are indeed important - but not the be all and end all. Does an 8 out of ten rack plus personality outweigh a set that goes all the way to eleven

I've fallen in love with guys I didn't find attractive at first. The more I got to know them the more they seemed physically attractive to me. I'm not sure how or why, it just happened that way. Soft-heartedness, ease of communication, feeling of comfort and trust around them, and a sense of humour'll do me just fine.

But attractiveness from simple first-off viewings? Nice smile, kind eyes, good natural V-shape build, and nice hair. Fairly basic. But he could be the best-looking man in the world and a bastard and I wouldn't look twice.

joop? really?

Wade in the Sea

In this order

1. Nice Eyes. Two of them is good. One is not enough I find and three is just overkill.
2. A good personality. She needs to be able to laugh at my jokes even, and especially, when they are not funny.
3. A good body is a must. I keep two under my bed myself
4. Patients of a Saint. That's pretty much non-negotiable I am afraid.


Oh and Money, she should have lots and lots of money so she can buy me the boat................

Charisma, magnetism, funniness, friendliness. Once some of those are present, wouldn't have to be anything special looking or in possession of a six-pack...

At the same time though, Quasimodo/Buster Bloodvessel alikes - no.

Pretty, intelligent girls who dig obscure indie movies and are just a little bit strange. Think Zooey Deschanel's character in 500 days of Summer. I think if I ever met a pretty girl in a lift who just said 'I love the Smiths' and started singing, I'd pluck an engagement ring out of the sky and go down on one knee there and then.

I can't find myself attracted to the self obsessive, god's gift to the world types. Doesn't matter if they look like supermodels, just not feeling that buzz at all. Brains over boobs for me every time- cue much AH ridicule

But I know where you're coming from dude.

I have to agree with the 'make me laugh and I'm yours' brigade and I find that if they don't have a personality, I get bored - simples. I also think a good old fashioned debate is great foreplay so a guy has to have his opinions yanno!

But yeah - physically, it has to be there in some way, shape or form, but it's not always that the instant 'pwhoar' connection actually works in the long term but someone you know for a while can one day just look at you and make yer knees tremble - attraction is a funny old game really when ye think about it.

They do exist. Unfortunately in the real world 'kooky' often just turns out to be 'mentally unstable' or 'selfish attention whore'. God damn it. :mad:

Cuteness. You can be tall or short, fat or skinny , big boobed or flat as an ironing board. Nice face > everything else. Oh yeah voice (not necessarily accent) is another one. The right voice is a killer. The wrong one a deal-breaker.

Eh, I like my girls to have a good personality and a bit of a dark, twisted sense of humour. I get to have more fun with them that way. The eyes usually seal the deal for me, then :pac:

They can't be too small though as I'm fairly stretched myself and my poor back would be destroyed.

That or the minimum requirement being that she has a pulse...............though that's not strictly enforced..............*cough*
