Attraction Thread

[Nanatsu no Tsuki]

Yeah, one girl I was attracted to is a political science major, and several of my female friends are into videogames, roleplaying games, anime, science fiction, and computer science. My ex loves Inuyasha, World of Warcraft, and contemplated a degree, or minor, in computer science at one point. So, take my and Arkinesia's word for it, they are out there! Check out the different clubs at your college that interest you, there is bound to be at least a few girls with similar interests!

I know a really nice girl at my school actually who is really into aviation, is working on a pilot's license, and once you bring up guns or fighter jets she won't shut up.

I really should talk to her more because there aren't many PEOPLE at this school who might talk about that, much less women…

You definitely should talk to her more often. The aviation circle is so male-oriented, that when you find a girl among them, she must be one in a million. And very focused too.

Yeah, you never know who might fall for you or who you will fall for or where you will meet them. Exhibit A is Nanatsu and Gallo.

Yup. And even if nothing like a relationship ensues, friendships are always a plus.

[Nornalhorst]

For me I don't think I will ever find my ideal woman or any woman for that matter since I've only had one actual date which ended disastrously, never had a girlfriend, and a virgin which is okay since I am a Christian having pre-marital sex isn't something I should be doing anyway. The closest contact I think I ever had with a girl was giving a good-bye hug during my high-school graduation and that was years ago, which reminds me a few times I have actually touched a girl's hands during a handshake the last one was about a year or so ago and the softness of their hands is truly strange yet pleasant.

My problem probably comes from the fact that I am shy (I will actually approach a girl, but shyness makes it more difficult and awkward), I am also probably too much of a nice guy and no I don't be nice to get into their panties I am normally nice to everyone I meet as long as they respect me problem is people seem to confuse niceness with weakness and then they get surprised when they do something I don't like and I confront them about it, and I'm pretty much the definition of a nerd (Most people think of me as very intelligent but sort of weird since I am interested in "boring" things like videogames, microbiology, anime, military science, politics, scifi movies, and software programming). Plus its very difficult to even have a conversation with a girl since most of the time the things that interests me do not interest her so I have nothing really to say besides asking her how is she feeling, what is the weather like, and things of that nature and hopefully she will carry the conversation from there, when I talk about my interests they always seem to get bored so the best thing to do is just ask her questions and simply listen.

My biggest issue is probably my inability to "read" people I almost feel autistic since I can't seem to pick up social cues unless they are very overt and obvious and flirting to me is some sort of psychic magic nonsense since I can't seem to understand it in the slightest. I am also not very confident in myself when it comes to dating I do try to fluff myself up so I appear to be more confident but honestly I am normally expecting rejection since I have had a literal 0% success rate actually I went on a date twice. The first date I went on I was the only one to show up and the second date the girl tried her best to make it hell, and no I wasn't going after the hottest girl I could find in both cases both girls were just average and plain normal looking girls I am just apparently a very bad judge of character. Physically I would say I am of average attractiveness so I wouldn't say that is an issue and I have worked on my physical appearance a little by going to the gym regularly and wearing clothes that I think look nice, but that doesn't do any good.

1. The fact that you don't get dates isn't because you're nice. Ask Bottle about it, she tears right through that myth.
2. I'm literally autistic and that didn't stop me.
3. Some people like nerdy guys. I know I do (don't think I'm a girl).
4. There is no universal standard of "average attractiveness".

I know I don't get dates isn't because I'm nice but niceness can play a factor in it for better or for worse depending on the girl and her tastes. My main issues are my shyness, my inability to read people, awkwardness in social situations, lack of experience, lack of charisma, and inability to connect with people (probably comes from my nerdy interests which other people don't seem to find particularly entertaining). One thing I am good at is being funny at least from what I've heard but it doesn't really help to be a comedian.

Also what I meant by average attractiveness is that I have no outstanding features to make me ugly nor handsome just normal. Only thing really unique about my appearance is that I am 6 foot 3 inches and 230lbs so I'm a pretty big guy and pretty strong. Other than that I dress normal and look relatively normal.

If you use your funny properly, it can help a lot. Link it to an issue, or to yourself or something.

That's...bound to stand out, sirrah.

You say "only thing" as if it's nothing major.

None of that has been able to stop me or Meryuma. Meryuma is autistic, and s/he still manages relationships- despite the likelihood that s/he has to deal with social awkwardness and inability to read people well, which I have to deal with as well. There are nerdy girls out there, you just need to look and be patient. Worst case scenario, you have a whole bunch of new friends you can geek out with! Being funny is a turn on for some girls, from what I gather. They appreciate a witty, highly intelligent, big guy like yourself. Play up your strengths. What have you got to lose? Based upon what you have said, you are used to hearing no, so you should be desensitized to that. And if she says yes, Praise The LORD!! How do I know this? I'm just like you- kinda nerdy/geeky, funny, in my early twenties, a horny college male, dress rather plain or casually, a big man, socially awkward, et cetera. Yet, as I previously said, I managed to find a girlfriend. Reason we broke up was that our wants and needs in the relationship were incompatible. It's been tough, I am not going to lie. It is damn tough sometimes when you look around and see all your gradeschool buddies get married or have kids. But you gotta hang in there, the right girl will come along.

Well, if he happened to be a cousin of mine, it would not seem too out of the ordinary- the guys in my family are generally at least 6ft tall and weigh in over 215lbs. In fact I've got a couple seven footers in my family tree, as well as a couple four hundred pounders. I weigh just as much as Nornalhorst, and my old man is much bigger weight wise. Btw, the girls can get pretty big in my family, too.

[Floreria]

Women that look too perfect to the point of appearing unnatural, like a doll. Potentially invoking levels of adoration or the uncanny valley response from others. Round faces. Intelligence. A philosophic or cute personality. Hime cuts are a plus.

You sound like the complete opposite of me, or at least close to it...
Me:
5'2 (might reach 5'4 or 5'6 if I'm lucky)
104 pounds(I don't know whats going on there used to be heavier, probably working out)
Roleplayer in the extreme compared to my friends in Rl
Average looks
Very Determined and stubborn to every challenge I face
I'm not to shy I can start a conversation with anyone
I'm awkward compared to others but that good kind that makes me the only me not one in the world like me
Very Experienced for getting with girls for my age

Tho this can work against me...alot, expecially in the shy tom-boy section, but Its slowly working

She's already flown Cessnas.

Then she must have a lot to talk about. I don't know any girls that are into planes and aviation. She must be an interesting person and you should take advantage of that.

I like planes... :'(

I didn't know, SAM.

Ok, I correct myself. I know one girl who likes planes.

[Bottle]

I'm mainly attracted to androgynous blondes with brown eyes who have slim, athletic builds.

My hetero life partner, to whom I am very attracted, is a decidedly masculine brunette with blue eyes and the shoulders of a defensive lineman.

Yep.

Awesome song.

[Alexlantis]

I value intelligence and kindness, a sense of humor is good as well. Anything else doesn't matter too much in the long run, although I've always had a bit of a thing for redheads. Doesn't mean I won't date a girl if she's not a redhead, though, hair color is of little importance, if any at all.

[Andrelea]

For me, physical appearance is equally important as personality. I find females with large breasts repulsive, if it starts getting much larger than a b cup at most, then just no. They should be very young, or at least look it (not pedophilically young, but close). Sort of medium build, not skinny nor overweight. They must be shorter than me, tall females are just wrong. If I was to state any hair colour for preference, it would probably be brunette, with brown or green eyes. Racially they must be European or the more European middle eastern races. Perhaps Latin American at a stretch, but that would be pushing it. As an omnist, I don't mind what their religious views are provided they don't try forcing them on people. Politically I don't care either, but if they have different views to me, they had better enjoy a good debate. They must be at least reasonably intelligent, have a decent sense of humor (or, at least, be able to put up with mine) and be a kind, just generally nice person. Of course, being able to put up with me also helps, but that would require levels of tolerance that I don't think are humanly possible.

[Disserbia]

hot, intelligent male mess. preferably not white, even though I am.

[New England and The Maritimes]

Like... that. But also like other things.

[Zaddaa]

The main thing I look for in a guy is intelligence and drive. Nothing is more of a turn on than a hard working guy who knows what he wants and is willing to go after it. Im a very strong and driven person and I want someone as driven as I am. A huge bonus and maybe a bit of a requirement is having a humanitarian/multicultural side like I do. And I could never date someone who is religious.
Physically, I have a thing for dark features. Almost Native American like.

So, like this woman, but different, while remaining similar, but not being too close to the original?
