So basically all my life I had no idea what my type was, but recently I think I've figured it out. These girls are soooo rare but whenever I meet someone like this I realize how I could never settle for what society so praises.

Lately I've been finding myself surrounded by girls that are so unoriginal that it actually makes me nauseous. We get it, you love shopping, and looking sexy, and partying.... Do you have any idea why you're alive?
I'm always looking for that girl that asks the big questions; I am actually attracted to people who think like that. I find it romantic.
Anyone ever meet someone like this?

I live in a college town, so, yes.

Not the party girls, the ones that I'd consider my type. Or is that what you meant?
I'm getting the feeling that I'm one of those starbucks, bookstore type of guys. not that I'm actually one of those guys, but like that's where i should go to meet the kind of girls I'm attracted to lol.
well I havent ahd a date yet (pathetic no?) so I really cant know until I try some... I think intellectual would be nic e at first but then he would just simly annoy me. Curious would show that he wants to learn about the workld but sometimes all the questions make me just agry heh. I think Ill go with a patient and collected person, but I guess only experience will show.

I feel the same thing when Im with friends, girls or not. They are all the same, look the same and even think the same... I somehow wonder, has anyone of them ever stopped and just looked up at the sky?
Quote from: "Squid"I live in a college town, so, yes.
Ditto.
I'm lucky, though; I got one that's...

Not in San Antonio.

(well not quite. but they're prettty rare.)
I think ugly duckling syndrome can lead to such a person. I dated such a girl once, but she was too hyper and believed in astrology :-/
I'm attracted to people who are intelligent, open minded, confident, and caring (but not caring in the sense that they are overly emotional and have to discuss their feelings all the time). Basically, I looked for the same things in a partner as I do in a friend...the difference is that I don't have to find my friends sexually attractive. But, I'm happily married so I don't date anymore.
Female. Other than that, I have no type whatsoever. Having a type would limit myself and could prevent me from finding someone special that doesn't happen to conform to common traits in past significant others.

So you're attracted to everything? (of course you aren't, so what ARE you attracted to lol)

Well, thinking back on my relationships, yes pretty much everything. Intelligent, less intelligent, funny, passive, aggressive, maybe a dozen different races, thin, overweight, daddy issues, independent, into anime; I've literally dated a cornucopia of woman.

How do you know what you like if you don't try a little bit of everything?

I'm with you on this one, except I mostly stuck to redhead/Asian.

Ah, redheaded Asians. Brings me back.
Attraction isn't an equation.
Redheaded asians? Meh. Redheads don't really do it for me. Which is unusual because of a certain someone that I was atracted too... <_<
I like dark haired asians with whatever skin type, and intelligence is a must. They don't have to be book smart, they just need a good head on their shoulders. But basically, other than that, it's all a matter if we won't fight 24/7.

I agree. I didn't try to pick out who I dated based on preconceived ideas of what worked for me. The only reason I had the few descriptions I posted above is because those seem to be common characteristics of people I didn't regret dating.

I'm actually Asian and I'm only attracted to white girls right now. I barely look at Asian girls.
My wife

The problem is, when she meets a nice guy (someone like me haha!) they are usually super intimidated, mainly because she is so attractive that guys think she'd never go for them for their brain skills alone. So, in essence, her downfall is the fact that guys think they are way below her realm of acceptance, so they don't even try. The only guys who try it on are the aforementioned greaseballs which she has no time for. A rather unfortunate catch-22 situation.
You should see her put-down the guys who think they have the perfect chat-up line. It is hilarious.

exactly the opposite to you.

Dude... totally.
Incidentally, I didn't mean redheaded Asians... I was trying to say redheads
and Asians, but since I've only dated one Asian, I wouldn't really say Asian
s. Lots of redheads. One Asian.
Guess which one stuck.
Anyone here ever wonder what'd be like to date a mexican woman?
I can tell you if you'd like to know...

Oh well, you can't have it all.
Oh, by the way Arthur Dent, the book store is not a bad place to look. Hover around the biology section at Borders for a little while and see what you find. I have had some really intelligent conversations with really down to earth people standing in front of Dawkins and Gould on the shelf.

So one of the girls I'm talking to right now is Asian (incidentally, the first asian I've dated) and so far she's a step above the rest. She's originally from Taiwan, but has been in America for at least ten years now. Speaks great english, though with an accent, and is ridiculously attractive. She'll be finishing her degree in biology this next semester, and then it's off to med school for her.
She did more
things to please me the first time we went out than any of the other girls .... like, I mean above and beyond the call of duty! I could list them, but it would be entirely inappropriate!

I will definitely have to try this!

Well she's definitely pretty jealous - but that's not necessarily a bad thing in itself. As long as it doesn't ever become unhealthy.
Quote from: "BadPoison"Well she's definitely pretty jealous - but that's not necessarily a bad thing in itself. As long as it doesn't ever become unhealthy. ;) I had to learn that the hard way.
Quote from: "curiosityandthecat"Jealousy seems very common from the people I've talked to who date Taiwanese women. I'm not entirely sure why. Are you friends with a lot of ex-girlfriends? Have a lot of female friends who take "liberties", if you know what I mean? If so, you might want to curtail that before it becomes an issue.
I had to learn that the hard way.
Well, I've explained to her that I rarely date one person exclusively. She knows that there are other girls that I'm currently seeing - and she's not so fond of that. I'm not really worried about it too much at present, as if I start to fall for this girl after a few more dates, then I will definitely be calling everything else off. But she has mentioned that she may not always be comfortable with me going out with mixed gender groups of friends --
We'll just have to see. I'm definitely not the jealous type myself - and would never hold anything against her if she went out with other guys - especially if I knew I could trust her (if we were later in an exclusive relationship that is.)
good luck, badpoison.
Quote from: "Wechtlein Uns"good luck, badpoison.
lol, remember my introductory post? It's amazing how quickly you can move on under certain circumstances...

I like my dates to be good looking, generally quiet and highly intelligent. I also prefer them of the sex they were born with. Other than that, pretty much anything goes.
