In my experience, I always take what women say with a grain of salt. Most of the time, they end up with someone completely different from the type they claim to be looking for.
100%! I'm guilty of this^^ including with my current who is an attorney and I swore I wouid NEVER date an attorney after working with them for years. Among other things.
I'm the same re looks. I always said my preference is tall, blonde and lean (swimmers physique). Why? Because my first love had that look and physique. And for a long time I compared every man to HIM!
But once I finally got over him, I have found myself attracted to all different types, men who did
not have that look. So I stopped trying to figure it out. It's much too nuanced and subjective.
As I stated in my previous, in my experience it's about the
chemistry/energy that exists between two people, a natural masculine/feminine polarity which is intangible and cannot be defined.
His looks factor in but not for the reason you think. Meaning he may not be conventionally good looking
but because of the our mutual natural chemistry/energy which often times is felt very quickly after meeting, he becomes good looking TO ME.
It's also why I have turned down extremely hot men, men with a certain status and wealth..
What I'm trying to say is there is NO magic sauce or formula that will guarantee attraction for either gender IME. No amount of looks or Game will work if the natural chemistry isn't there.
Ever wonder why after a date when YOU felt everything went right, you looked great, were 100% on your Game, did everything right, the woman texted the next day saying "
I had a great time but just wasn't 'feeling it'"?
For her, there was no chemistry, no "spark." It happens all the time
Genuine attraction (versus superficial) and chemistry cannot be manufactured or created, again jmo and experience. It simply exists, it's an intangible force, no rhyme or reason.
Stop trying so hard.
All that said, I acknowledge since this is a seduction forum this may not be the right thread (or the right forum) to discuss this in more detail so I'll leave it. Just food for thought
Carry on mate, good luck!
