Do we really have a type, or do we base it on the person we are in love with at that time?

I definitely have a type, and my husband fits very, very few of the physical traits that I am typically attracted to. That doesn’t mean that I am not attracted to my husband, or that I am exclusively attracted to my “type.” Just means that I have a long standing preference for an overall look that I consistently find appealing.

If you looked at the women I’ve been with in more than a passing relationship, they would not look alike, but they would tend to a general type. But that type is almost a personality type, including education and general attitude about the world.

On the other hand, a friend has dated women, including both his wives, who could all be twins. When you see an old picture of him and a woman you have to be careful which former Gf it was.

I’m not in love with anyone and I have a type.

Oh I absolutely do. Always been a sucker for dark eyes & dark hair. Something unbelievably sexy about that look. My “type” must also have a silly sense of humour & boast an athletic figure, by happy coincidence the present mrs. ucme fits those details down to a tea :¬)

I can’t fall in love with anyone; I have a type.

I have to say that I seem to be attracted to a certain type. I like dark hair and eyes. I like guys who aren’t very tall but muscular. I would say 5’7” to 5’10”, I am a sucker for a baby face. Personality-wise, I am attracted to extroverts – “life of the party” types. Maybe because I am so quiet. I love guys who like to tease – the way an older brother would tease a younger sister. I gravitate to people who are entertaining. All of my female friends are very talkative and animated.

Yes I have a type, I am only attracted to men who are smart. I have to be able to speak to them and be able to feel like I can learn something from them. I don’t know why that is but it just is. Not really that big into the looks thing, the only thing I am particular about is height and they have to be at least a little taller than me.

I don’t believe I have a type. There have been a number of similarities to the women I have lived with—tall, thin, red or blond hair, small breasts, ex catholics. But that is completely unintentional. I have been attracted to all kinds of women—all races, heights, body types, breast sizes. But I don’t know why I end up, almost all the time, with women who fit that overall description. The one I married, though, was the only one who was not a former catholic.

I definitely have a type.
His name is Clint Eastwood.
Perhaps you’ve heard of him? ;)

I have no type. I fall for the individual.

I have to admit falling for a certain type…more attitude than looks….though I have a very soft spot for amazing legs and stare down eyes! WOOF!

My type becomes whoever I am currently smitten with, although if they are musical, smart, funny, and kind, that’s a good start…

I don’t have a type so much as a typo.

If you look at the women I’ve actively pursued, you might think I have a type with an anomaly or two. If you look at the women I’ve dated, which is basically the set of women I’ve actively pursued minus one, you might really think I have a type. If you look at the women to whom I’ve been attracted, however, the results become more ambiguous. And if you look at the women who have actively pursued me, it begins to look like perhaps I am the one who is appealing to a type (again, with an anomaly or two).

I definitely have a type. I like athletes, mainly football players and track and field guys. My preferences are definitely separate from how my SO looks.

I have two types of men to whom I’m generally attracted. One is around 5’ 6” to 5’ 8”, dark hair, blue eyes, great smile. The other is a bit taller, thin, a little “nerdy” looking (that’s a hard one to quantify.) My husband fits the latter. I don’t think that I picked him because of that, however.

My current “type” is about 5’7”, dark hair, golden/hazel eyes, great smile, great sense of humor…

My type can be categorized as intelligently sexy, in all of its forms.
