Is there a such thing as "your type"?

[DJDamage]

I got a question for you guys, do you ever wonder if the woman you picked up was a result of you being attracted to her based on her looks alone or because she reminded you of another chick you had feelings for and you translate those feelings to her??

I sometimes catch myself being attracted to women who look and act just like my ex more so then other women. As if my own brain deciding that since a chick that looked like that in the past made me happy then chances that she can too.

actually i find the times when im MOST attracted to a woman its typically not related to their looks.

dont get me wrong, looks matter. but overall its more to do with their eyes and their smile and something else.

i do have a type of woman that incites LUST in me more than others though. for some reason i find the courtney cox look ultra sexy.

but the ones where i go "Why God? why have you forsaken me." typically attract me on a level much deeper than looks - i guess we'd call it personality.

oh man, maybe this means im gay.

There is absolutely a certain "type" of woman that we, at a personal level, are attracted to -- there is body type, character types, value types, personality types etc... The girls you seek don't remind you of your ex, rather those are the ones that you are attracted to who have similar characteristics as your ex.

Joekerr31 there is no such thing as "gay" -- you are referring to a pervert!! Don't be part of the homo/hor agenda and their corrupt lingo!

Gay means happy, jolly - are you happy? If yes, then your gay!

Wow, I ALMOST thought LMS would get through one whole post without saying "hor". I guess it's a start, seeing how he didn't follow it up with fourteen exclamation points. JK.

To the OP. I used to think I had a type. But the girls I date are as different from each other as possible. For me, it all starts with looks, there has to be something that attracts me physically, and a good smell. I don't have a type, not at all.

I don't really have "a" type. What I do have is a bunch of "not my types".

Blondes? Not my type.
Fatties? Not my type.
Single mommies? Not my type.
Drama queens/joy robbers/AW's? Not my types.

If you ask what I "go for", I do have to admit that when scanning a crowd for targets, my eyes tend to stop on the darker-haired women. I don't know that would be considered "my type" or not. "Type" seems to be too vague, or perhaps too acute.

If I had to answer a "what's your type" question, I'd reply with:
A woman: 5'4", past-the-shoulder length black hair, green eyes, weighs less than me, swears more than me, can wear my shoes (or owns her own hiking boots), left-handed, can cook better than me, can sew better than I can, can beat me at Scrabble, drinks ****tails AND beer, doesn't complain about squatting in the woods, no kids, never married, no diseases, postive, pices (maybe a virgo), works during the day, non-vegetarian, puts the seat and lid down on the toilet, with impeccable hygeine and a good, laid-back attitude... awww... don't feel bad! There is always hair dye and colored contacts if you aren't measuring up.

But is that "my type"? It's just an imagined woman designed from a composite of the good traits taken from other women I've been with, I've never met such a person, so I couldn't really say if it's my type or not.

"My type" is merely a marketing expression. It is a fairy-tale prompt to get you fantacizing about future romances. It's the precurser, or training for you to believe in "the one".

Limiting yourself to a "type" is "soul mate" mentality.

I am not limiting myself to a type its just that certain characteristics about women such as a tall burnette with glasses and a great ass always gets me more excited then others.

So it's more of a preference than a type? That's clarification. I don't really believe that anyone is a "type". I truly believe it only serves to limit the choices that present themselves. If you don't like black colored "type" cars you won't notice how many ass-kickin black cars pass you by every time you're on the road. See for yourself.

LOL I was about to post the same thing about LMS! I was like "oop, I don't see it... don't see it... AW CRAP"
