Beauty

I must either be blind or niave............. I strike up conersations for conversation's sake........ am I missing something?
no, I do so as well, but that's not what you asked.
 
Yeah, beauty matters.

My definition of beauty matters. The definition changes too. I used to be attracted to 'pretty boys' and then it was men who spent more time at the gym sculpting mucscles than paying attention to me. Lately, I'm attracted to normal, average looking men with 'eyecatchers' like a great smile, beautiful eyes, sexy hands...

None of that matters though if we're not compatible in other ways. I may have drinks with them, talk to them, spend time with them, but if I find out that there's no spark, I'm movin on, no matter how attractive they are.*


*In theory, of course. I too am bound by the ring.

What makes you stop, and give that person your attention? If they haven't grabbed it with their appearance in general?

Often times, it's someone who gets my attention, actively. They kind of just walk up to you and grab you with their personality. They ask questions, listen to the answers, they're good at small talk. You notice them because they're so damn comfortable putting themselves on the line. The kind of people that know that you have to ask ten times to get one yes.

Sometimes it's just an attitude. Someone that's comfortable in a crowded restraunt, sitting by theirself. I find myself attracted to that quiet patience. Perfect control, poise, almost an understated charisma. You can look into their eyes and see a hundred mysteries, and you just want to know them.

There are a lot of other things that can catch my eye, these are just examples. The basis being the general presentation of the person.

I couldn't have said that better myself, and believe me when I say that I've tried Thousands of times!
 
Wiggles, you are very right. I am the same way.

PCG...I'll take one. Can I have the demon one?
 
hehhehe, heiferbeast and demon, I kinda like those names.

Morgaine........ if you want a demonchild, then come get my youngest......even my demon wannabe doggies are terrified of him, and to think he'll only be six next month.......

Although he does have his qualities....... my brown eyes, gorgeous blond hair...... my brown eyes, my brown eyes,.... uh, where was I?
 
It's all one package - looks, smarts, charisma, values, etc. If a guy is incredibly physically attractive but totally boring or a complete asshole, he's not sexy to me at all. Conversely, a guy can be plainish, even odd looking, on the outside but be so charismatic, intelligent, and intriguing personality-wise that he makes my knees buckle.

I tend to fall for super-charismatic goofy-looking dudes. We're all going to end up wrinkled and bald - if we're lucky enough to live that long. If all a man has to offer is his looks, he'll be pretty dull to be with when we're both 80.

As far as...Intelligence, kindness, vitality, quirkiness, comfortability, open-mindednes; You can't SEE these things when you first see someone. For this I wonder, do you give a so-so looking person a chance?
I don't agree.

For example, there are certain looks of the eye, turns of the mouth, ways of holding your hands that all indicate various degrees of these things. And I don't even know how to quantify those, but it takes moments for me to decide if someone has at least a few of these traits.

Those are the people I want to talk to, to get to know, to decide if they have all of them.
 
My two cents worth. Physical appearance is what people often notice first. For example, you can't tell much about a person you see from across the room, but you can tell what they look like. Admittedly, many people are shallow and overvalue appearance, ignoring other qualities in people.

Having said that, physical beauty is only skin deep. However, many people are beautiful in other ways, and it takes more than simply giving someone the quick up and down look to find that out. Unfortunate that so many people are so obsessed with only the physical beauty.

You know the one you tell all the stores about.

I need a serious challenge.

Oh, THAT demon. Might I recommend shock collars and a padded room?
 
Okay. But I have to move closer. I see what giving up the ocean means now ;)

Girl..You so Rock. I want to be your CowBoy.
 
It's all in the way a woman carries herself. If I can pick-up a vibe from a woman, that she is confident and kind just by her demeanor. That's a huge turn-on. Size 2 or size 22 doesn't matter. Beauty comes from within.

Now from across a crowded bar . . . I don't go to bars, and clubs so what the fuck do I know about that?

The beauty is in the skin, eyes and smile. Through her eyes you can see the color of her soul, the kindness of her heart. In her smile comes the light of her being, bright enough to illuminate the night. And healthy skin is a healthy life (I don't just mean she eats well and works out either) a complete person that laughs and loves, and hurts and cries.

That's beautiful to me.
