Tall, dark and handsome?

Toxic Babyface · 26 Oct 2010 at 14:07

I know we all have preferences but why is it I hear nearly all women say 'I like men that are tall, dark and handsome'?
I fall well below these to be honest as I am none of the above

What is other people's thoughts on this? Do you tick all the boxes?

theres a woman out there for every bloke

Yes you are quite right.
Sadly the only ones I tend to get interest from are foul mouthed hogs who love getting hammered every night.

Oh and they also have bad hygene

all you need is confidence. How many ugly little short guys do you see with stunners because of this.

Yes I have seen this (rare from where I am) I can't help but think they must be with them because they have a very successful career or have a huge wang....Or maybe both lol.

Some interesting responses so far though

Keep them coming people.

Also not forgetting the amount of jealous, insecure, needy, just plain crazy women that will bat far below their standard just to walk all over a guy to feel better about themselves.

I've seen it done and know of one or two.

Really? Oh man that's bad

My ex used to walk all over me but she sure was'nt a stunner (dont mean that to sound nasty)

Some girls just like the bad boy or those they think are great in bed or can provide a lavish lifestyle etc. Generally those are the ones to stay away from, a decent girl who is into you won't be interested in if you treat her mean and keep her keen, or are fabulous in bed.. Her interest in you alone means games like this aren't needed. Sex will be something you learn together, and get better over time. Being great in bed, or having a huge wang isn’t what decent girls are looking for. trust me..

Insecurity for woman is a major problem however, some are better with it then others but you need to just get out there and find someone who likes you for you. And you will. But don’t be surprised that once you find a girl a lot of effort to keep her is required, even if she is a pure heart of gold lass. They need to feel secure, and this is more important to them then how you look or how much you earn or how big your pecker is..!!

I just find it really difficult to find any decent girls really. I have tried internet dating (fail and just a bad idea I have learned)
I guess I should just get on with life until I meet that special person.

For me toxic the golden rules are
1) Be happy with yourself, if you are not happy alone you will no be happy in a relationship
2) As before confidence. Just practise talking to women, even just going down the shopping centre chatting to shop assistants is a start.
3) You are a good catch, you deserve a decent woman! Her loss if she says no

Thanks for the advice Sone

Perfect... Single clubs where you go and mingle with like minded folks are great for this... You just go out, meet folks and make friends and who knows.. That one lass could be there waiting for you.

As I was told years ago. Love can't be found, it finds you. and it will one day. And you won't be too old, too ugly or too fat. she'll find something in you she likes and you'll find she is decent..

Or you don't find she is decent and you marry the cow and she takes the clothes off your back..

no really, just get out... Internet dating BTW I think is dating by numbers. Works for some, not for others.

I can't find any singles clubs down my way

I did attend one once when I was about 22 and it was full of nice girls

Only problem was that most of them seemed to have brought boyfriends along. It did seem a bit of a farce at the time. There was however a middle aged lady who came over and kept flirting with me. She soon changed her mind though and said 'I was too young for her' lol.

Internet dating failed terribly for me

The amount of loonies and idiots I have had interest from :eek:

Oh an OP relax and get comfortable with yourself. There is a decent girl out there. It was a while before I found mine and I found her totally out of the blue.

Thanks LordSplodge. I think this is the problem I have currently... I can't help but see myself as somebody who will never be able to get a decent girlfriend.
I must learn to overcome this I guess

Toxic Babyface · 26 Oct 2010 at 15:36

an ugly man can always muscle up. an ugly girl does not have this advantage, and as such, has to resort to sluttiness.

Yeah thats quite true In a way lol.
a lot of the 'not so pretty girls' I know of from where I live are like this.

Toxic Babyface · 26 Oct 2010 at 15:43

Stop being such a pushover.

Seriously if you don't imagine what you can get rather than what you cannot then you'll always get crapped on.

Well I am not as bad as I used to be lol

But you are right.

Also just starting to have a read of that Arnie link you quoted. Thanks

Toxic Babyface · 26 Oct 2010 at 16:24

I tick all the boxes fortunately, and often women come to me so it's all good! Less work for me to do

Oh how I wish I could be like that lol.

Toxic Babyface · 26 Oct 2010 at 16:31

You don't want to be like Freefaller - he's French!

Lol
Well it must be the accent that gets the girl's flocking to him

French is the language of love is it not?

Toxic Babyface · 26 Oct 2010 at 16:42

Nope it's Welsh

Lol
I find girls with welsh accents a bit of a turn on for some strange reason :confused:

Bit off topic I know.

Toxic Babyface · 26 Oct 2010 at 16:47

Facetious comments aside, not all men are after tall dark and handsome, so don't get hooked up on it. Personality, humour and intelligence are powerful allies - furthermore, some women like blonde men too! haha!

Don't get hooked up on what the stereotypes say, be yourself, and be confident in yourself and don't try and be someone that you're not.

Well I am blonde so I guess i could be in with a chance with some girls

Thanks for the advice Freefaller.

that stumps me a bit too... I think it's dark haired with a tan or something. I dunno :confused:
