What first attracts me to a man is his physical attributes. Eyes, hair, lips, body, etc. I think it is evident that you have to first be attracted to someone to start a relationship. The next thing I notice is his personality, not only towards me but others as well. If he treats me good as well as others that is very attractive. I also really love a man with a sense of humor. I want to laugh and have a good time. I joke around alot so if he doesn't have a sense of humor it just wouldn't be that fun. Of course there are times when I the first thing I notice about a man is his sense of humor or personality. Yet, I do have to be attracted to someone to start a relationship, not because I'm shallow, just because it's important to find your partner attractive.

I agree. If you are not attracted to someone physically it is hard to have a good relationship. If you are only attracted to their personality, they will make a potentially great friend.

Good question. When I was younger, I was more attracted to physical attributes. I usually went for guys with long hair...and those who reflected the "bad boy persona." Now that I'm older, I find that I am more attracted to personality attributes. I like a man that will talk as well as listen to me. I like deep thinkers and those who think a little outside the box and are not afraid to speak their opinions, but not to the point that it's offensive. A strong character is very attractive to me, but the "Alpha male" really gets on my nerves, because they are usually only thinking of themselves. I also like a man who cares about real issues and is willing to speak out or do something about them.

Sense of humor seems to be a big thing.

The first attraction is physical in my case (hair and smile), but it doesn't last longer than the first time he opens his mouth. After that it's a personality and attiude that can keep me. I am attracted to guys that can keep my attention. I tend to get bored rather quickly and I don't like lingering on one thing too long. Guys that are calmer than me, and good at making me see their point also are attractive. I love a good debate, but by the end I want someone to have convinced the other on their view. I find that really the most attractive guys I have known are those that are happy to be able to smile and do it alot. For me, there is nothing better than seeing a truely happy smile on a man.

Looks can defenitely be killed after someone opens their mouth for the first time. Many things besides looks are required to keep the flame burning.

Better to not back yourself into a corner with those specific looks. Sounds like a funny, bright and engaging man is what attracts you.

It is definitely their attitude and personality that attracts me. If they are kind, considerate, helpful, trustworthy, humourous...then they are attractive to me. I don't like harsh people who care only for themselves and no one else. Looks don't really mean all that much to me either, it is what's on the inside that counts.

That makes a lot of sense to me. Seems you can have more options that way. Thanks for the great reply.
