Let's liven up the Leo forum a bit. What would you say are desirable traits in a mate? Or rather, what are you typically looking for when you're dating someone. Do you have a type? We're discussing physical and non physical traits here.

Physically speaking, I dont really have a type. My family and friends are very diverse racially and culturally, so that affects my dating life. I've dated more women in my race, but I don't really take it into account. Beyond that my physical preference tends towards women with large soft eyes (hazel to dark brown), and generally soft faces (think Gemini traits). In fact eyes can kill me. I also tend toward fit or curvy women. Height doesn't really matter to me as I've date women who were both taller and shorter than me. Women who are comfortable in their femininity, with a hint of tomboy generally appeal to me.

There are far more non physical traits that I look into though. Any woman I'm interested must be witty and have a good sense of humor. Unlike here on the forums I'm generally the jokester, so a woman who can make me laugh gets a lot of points. A woman who is into some type of fitness and likes food is a plus (I'm a foodie who cooks often). If she cooks too, even better. Any ounce of nerd will set her apart as well (comics, astronomy, video games, biology, etc). Most importantly, she needs to be a good conversationalist (hence why I generally go for women with air placements). I can be a chatterbox and will jump from topics on politics, to art, to time travel, to religion, to women's rights in a heartbeat. So really I need a woman who can keep up with my mind. Silent women kinda freak me out...

I also can't stand emotional immaturity or drama, so I tend to date women who are close to my age or older. I don't discount younger women, but will generally only date a women who is 2-3 years younger/older than me at most. This could change as I get older obviously.

Non Physical:

- Sense of humor is a must, I joke around a lot and have a wide sense of humor

- Confidence but not cocky

- Loves food (big turn off to see a man who doesn't eat much, plus I love food)

- Good with money, not a must... but at least be sensible and not throw away your dollars at the bar every weekend

- Has goals

- Preferably into sports, or some sort of fitness

- Mature (I normally date men a few years older for this reason)

Physical:

- Dark hair

- Tan/brown skin

- Brown eyes

- At least my height or taller

- body; as long as they are not skinnier or weaker than me we are good to go

I have a thing for hispanics, asians, native americans etc

Exotic looking I guess you could say

For physical I feel I don't really have a type. What always stands out to me is a nose haha

My man says I have ugly-man syndrome, meaning I like men who aren't handsome by society's standard

So height doesn't really matter since I have dated shorter men. I do enjoy features of asian men more than western, so shorter men comes with that territory a bit, especially since Im 177cm/5'9 🙂

And hair is important, I love a good head of hair.

(first time I'm actually thinking about a type..weird)

For his personality I like the strong silent type. Not much words, but what he says is important. Confident in himself. I like creative men, creative jobs/interests, someone I can go to a museum with, watch art docu's, stuff like that.

Someone open minded, who has seen something of the world and understands everyone handles their business differently and can be okay with that. (specific?)

He has to have the ability to be a kid sometimes, sing when he wants, have an innocence about him.

Mature enough to make me feel safe and solid.

wow...that was a freakin journey >

I look for the whole fucking package.

Nice to his mother

Has a relationship with his mother

Has a decent education

Has a good job

Calls and texts me back right away

Doesn't talk shit about my friends or family

Doesn't fuck with people I don't like

Doesn't eat crap food

Takes his health seriously

Makes a decent amount of income to support himself and his dreams.

Has focus to do other things than work--fulfilling personal goals or desires

Agrees that house chores and home tasks are equally divided

Makes and effort to care for me in personal small ways that are thoughtful

Remembers to take the trash out daily

Walks my dogs

Notices when I did something new to my hair

Watches movies that I like

Doesn't talk back to me

Let's me ride his dick and cum first before he gets his

Eats vagina like a beast

Has a big dick

Helps me clean up my body after he cums on it

Does the extra mile and gets me a warm cloth

Respects me even when I'm not around

Carries groceries from the car

Lifts all the heavy things

I'm just a simple woman. This is all I want. ??
I seriously cracked up. For some reason most of this seemed reasonable except:

Doesn't eat crap food (He's a guy, more than likely burgers and fries are happening)

Watches movies that I like (As long as you're watching his movies too)

Doesn't talk back to me (I think you may want to get a dog...even parrots talk back)

Really I'm looking for someone chill like myself. Someone who isn't in a big hurry and willing to take their time to develop actual trust and respect in the right kind of ways. Someone that can become by best friend first, then we fall madly in love. At that point the bond will be strong enough for me to feel satisfied. Imo someone that wants to take it slow is a sign of maturity, and a huge turn on to me.
