Question for the ladies?

[DEEZPAZ]

I've talked to a lot of girl friends and they always say that they are looking for a certain type of guy.. Whether it be tall, good hair line, nice body, good job, etc but where do you draw the line or over look some of these qualities that you are looking for in a man... I mean would you over look a receding hair line if the guy had a great personality or sense of humor...

How far will you go before you decide a guy is or isn't worth your time??

depends on priorities, and those change all the time from person to person.
my closest friend just turned 40 and has been divorced for 10 years. she had a few criteria for a man- they had to be taller than her, intelligent, well travelled, and of course, match her personality.
she met someone on her birthday who she's crazy about. he's shorter than her and not well travelled, but they match well together on everything else and she went to grade school with him. she likes so much about him and she's at a time in her life when she's tired of waiting for the perfect man who isn't coming, especially when i keep telling her that height or hair is not everything.
for me, some things i wouldn't budge on- a man has to be responsible, kind, respectful. i can't see myself spending time with someone i could not talk to, and that includes intelligence. i'd have to respect him.
things like looks, they fade in time anyway and i wouldn't want to be judged for mine. sometimes attraction grows stronger as you know a person anyway.

i used to have certain things i would look for but i have changed alot in 5 years.

where i learned to draw the line was after a few bad boys and ended up with my best friend
couldnt have picked better.

when i was 18 i never imagined myself with anyone that wasnt part native american, that had been married before, that was heavy into going to the gym, that didnt cook, and instead i got a prince charming.
i have been given a gift - pathetically i used to be very picky, selfish, and somewhat ridiculous about what i thought i wanted.


anyways where i drew the line is i just became open minded after awhile and fell for the person who listened when i needed them and comforted me when i needed.
my best friend

I understand what you're all saying but do you think its being openminded or just settling b/c you don't think that guy you've envisioned exists???

its about being open minded. that can happen with time, age, or because you realize that there's a great guy in front of you that you haven't really been LOOKING at because he didn't fit the idea you had in your head. toss out the idea and there he is.
