Mr. Fabulous

Tall.

Manly.

Confident.
Possessive (to a certain extent).
Romantic.


Spontaneous.

Caring.

Supportive.


Isn't afraid to make a fool of himself.
Cute.

"Smart" and "Trustworthy" are definitely other qualities that are up there on the list, but I couldn't really find pictures to illustrate them.

Out of all of these, I have to say that confidence and manliness are what draws me to guys the most, initially at least (of course they have to be taller than me too, but that's a given). It's just something about the way they present themselves that appeals to me. Although, there is a threshold for the confidence factor. Too much of it is NOT a good thing and a total turn off. In fact, a lot of times, the guys that I'm drawn to turn out to be jerks. Let's see...

Yep.

Definitely true.

So I think there are two types of guys that I, based on past experience, tend to go for. (The qualities listed above actually combines the two types.) The first kind is the kind that I mentioned above--confident, smooth talkers who know what they want. They're generally also smart and fun to be around. But they tend to make me paranoid and not trust them. In addition, they really don't give a s*** about me. They're selfish, and are only in it because they know they can get what they want (unless it's someone like me, who's stubborn, and don't give them what they want, and they end up leaving me). Although, even if I do give them what they want, they'll still leave me after they get it. So either way, I'm screwed. Conclusion: If they were my boyfriend, I'd have a rocky, but exciting-at-times relationship. And that's not the kind of relationship I want (I want the "exciting" part, but not the "rocky" part).

So...that brings me to the second type. This group is generally made of guys who are smart, fun, caring, and supportive. They tend to be people whom I'm very comfortable around. I know they'll be there for me when I need them to be. And I tend to have a lot of fun with this group as well. But, the attraction factor isn't as big as the attraction I have for the first type. These guys, I guess, are more "safe". I think if I were to be in a relationship one, it'd be a much smoother ride, which, in the long run, would be good for me. But I crave excitement, and I'm not sure if I can get that from guys in this group.

It's a tradeoff I guess.
Or maybe, I will find someone who possesses qualities of both types.
Maybe not.

Go for the second type - you can train them to be exciting. I have the same problem as you, except only worse.
