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?

    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.

    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.

    Someone who eats less than me. That way, there's always a bit of food left in the fridge if I feel peckish.
