"Right I’m kind of pondering here. So I’ve met lots of men whom I’m physically attracted to at first glance in the past, and some have (most) turned out to be pretty poor choices , narcissistic and materialistic. So as I’ve got a little older my outlook and therefore view have changed , I’ve realised that I need to look beyond physical attraction. But what I’m struggling with is what I find attractive in a man physically , is usually personality entwined, hard to explain. But do you ever find yourself looking outside the box but then thinking ‘NO’ I like what I like. Maybe I’m just getting old ![]() You want to keep getting let down you carry on. Looks aren't everything | |||

Personality is such a big thing ALSO!! But attraction also needs to be there initially | |||

"I seem to be getting pickier. Men my age look so much older than...... I feel ![]() That's not gender specific. I'm not looking for anyone but generally I take to people with a younger outlook. It's easier to start to become a miserable old scrote when you get to the age I'm at. I don't claim to be holier than thou and I do occasionally have to tell myself to stop getting worked about something that doesn't really matter too much. | |||

Tbh as well it's rare most dates go further than one or two. Finding someone you are attracted to who's also attracted to you and who's personality you like isn't easy. You just have to kind of luck in to it. | |||

"My mother always told me Your looks are your invitation to the party, Your personality will get women to dance. You’re going through the age of internet dating. People tend to have one or two great dates and they are off to see if something better comes along. Don’t compromise your attractiveness standards and settle. Just ride out the storm and someone will catch your eye and you will be happy." Very true!

"Right I’m kind of pondering here. So I’ve met lots of men whom I’m physically attracted to at first glance in the past, and some have (most) turned out to be pretty poor choices , narcissistic and materialistic. So as I’ve got a little older my outlook and therefore view have changed , I’ve realised that I need to look beyond physical attraction. But what I’m struggling with is what I find attractive in a man physically , is usually personality entwined, hard to explain. But do you ever find yourself looking outside the box but then thinking ‘NO’ I like what I like. Maybe I’m just getting old ![]() The clue us in the title of your post...choice. You seem to be saying that you either choose good looking gobshites or nicer guys that you then feel no attraction for. You need to ask yourself why? There are good looking nice guys out there so why do you repeatedly either go for emotionally unavailable guys or "safe" guys that you can push away as you don't find them attractive? If we keep repeating patterns then don't be suprised when we keep getting the same old. Attractive and nice aren't mutually exclusive...you seem to be stuck in the rut of thinking it's either or. Why do you think that might be? | |||

It could be that it's easier to stick with the familiar (even if it's shit) than go out into scary unchartered waters..(been there, done that!) It could be that you think shit is all you deserve. It could be that you don't actually want a relationship as that would be scary too..you'd have to make yourself vulnerable and yes that is fucking scary. Only you can answer that x | |||

I texted her after to say how much I enjoyed meeting her and she said thanks. After that nothing.

I.e. physical attribute large muscular calves.. you'll know that person is more likely going to spend time at the gym or long walks often.

"So, are we saying that we find some people physically attractive, some people mentally attractive, and finding one with the right amount of each, who thinks the same about us, can be hard?" Yeah dude!! It’s kinda easy when you say it in layman’s terms | |||

"I seem to be getting pickier. Men my age look so much older than...... I feel ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I’ve been like that since I was a teenager. When I was 15 I was hanging around with the boys the year below. I’ve only had one bf older at 18 and then always younger. When I was 21, I was dating 18 years olds. I married a guy 8 years younger and now the average is at least 10. It’s just me and who I connect with. I like music and fashion that is more 30 something that 40s. Guys my age rarely know the bands im into. I love gigs and festivals. | |||

"Right I’m kind of pondering here. So I’ve met lots of men whom I’m physically attracted to at first glance in the past, and some have (most) turned out to be pretty poor choices , narcissistic and materialistic. So as I’ve got a little older my outlook and therefore view have changed , I’ve realised that I need to look beyond physical attraction. But what I’m struggling with is what I find attractive in a man physically , is usually personality entwined, hard to explain. But do you ever find yourself looking outside the box but then thinking ‘NO’ I like what I like. Maybe I’m just getting old ![]() It sounds to me that it's not looks that attracts you, but attitude.. I may be wrong, but reading between the lines it sounds like you're attracted to a certain arrogance and self-confidence that often accompanies a certain type of guy. If that's the case it will always be a gamble as to whether they can deliver on the attitude or whether they will be all bluster and no substance. But again, if I'm right you are always going to find yourself pulled to that type. But that's not a problem. If you have a type, you have a type. There'll be ones that don't live up to the hype, and tbose that do. Goid luck with your search. You look hot, so the ball remains in your court. | |||

"Well why change what you like just maybe tweak it a little or just try something else for a change if you like it result if you dont then go back to what you were doing before I’m guessing from what youve described what Men you go for but don’t want to state it as people will moan but most who are up themselves and sped all day on them self’s are like that Oh and age is nothing I’ve been told by a lot of people I look 10 years younger than I am and also I’m a good looking lad for my age ![]() I hate stereotypes! I spend a lot of time looking after myself but I’m very far from narcissistic or self adoring. Does looking after your self make others assume this? I’m very low self esteem. So for me at times being “au natural “ isn’t that easy. Yet other days it’s fine. | |||

My ex hubby was very into his clothes and was very metrosexual but he was the most humble guy I know. I know quite a few that take good care and preen and not up themselves. I work as a flight attendant and the same can’t be said for many women I work with. | |||
