When a guy approches a woman for conversation , what are some of the things you look for?

Asked by cornbird (1750points) January 6th, 2010

I would like to know what are some of the most common things you look at in a guy; what are the most common “turn on” and “turn off” signals. What is sexy and what is not?

Turn on-
Actually listens to what I say.
Has common interests.
Clean shaven or well-trimmed hair.

Turn off-
Staring at my chest.
Talking about sex before I know his last name.
Showing-off (either by words or actions.)

Sexy: Voice, eyes, smile, laugh, posture, intent listener, confidence (NOT over-confident though) Facial hair, looks to be a man who does not conform to the clothing “trends”. I hate that crap!

Gross: heavy breathing, staring, interrupting, “Gino” or however you spell it. If i see one coming I boot it in the opposite direction!! Full-of-himself, big ego, body odor. Lack of intelligence.

Wow, I sound NASTY.. but I found my perfect man <3 And that has helped me discover exactly what I’d NEVER want in a guy…

Yes: Looks me in my eyes, is interested in what I have to say, asks questions, actually listens and appropriately comments, seeks commonality, sounds intelligent and educated, looks at me as though nothing else exists or is important.

No: Bad breath, gossips, seems materialistic, appears to only want to get my phone number or just have sex, keeps checking watch or cell phone, is looking at other women.

I think the jist of what everyone is saying is that a woman wants a man who is interested in getting to know her as a person rather than as a sexual object only. That, and good hygiene are sine quae non.

Now what’s this with women and being a person and all that? I mean, us men have no problem with being sex objects. Right, guys?
