Since there's a topic about dating tips I thought I would make one about dating standards.

So the question I'm asking the members of The Escapist is;(sorry for butchering that punctuation mark) What are your standards for a significant other?

Generally I prefer a girl who is shorter than me. I have a weird attraction to red hair and personality is important. I'm a sucker for big eyes, especially eyes that often imitate a puppy's eyes. I usually don't lower or raise my standards, but sometimes I'm subject to peer pressure. I can't stand smoking so that's a definite turn-off. I also prefer someone who is generally kind and is fairly intelligent. And just to keep this post completely honest, "I LIKE BEWBS!"

EDIT: Fixed so that those of varying sexual orientation may post.

Looks don't matter as much to me, as long as she isn't fugly. I go for personality. I don't really look for anything, just talk to them, see if we connect well, and then go in for the kill. Oh and bewbs, of course there's gotta be bewbs.

I believe there was a topic about this already, that Labyrinth created. I could be wrong though. Anyone not too lazy to do a search can check this if they wish.

In any case, I have fairly low standards. Looks really don't matter all that much to me as long as she isn't overly fat and at least resembles a human being. As for turn ons, I like tattoos and piercings, the more the better. Turn offs, stupidity, ignorance and sexism (any girl who complains about all men being assholes/stupid is no longer worthy of my attention).

I looked for a previous topic, but I couldn't find one. It's not like I scoured(SP?) the forums though.

Looks aren't the biggest thing for me. More of added bonuses. Like you I at least prefer her to not look like she took on the ugly stick in a fight.

It's all about the whole package to me. Some things look more attractive with others. I really do prefer a nice butt over nice boobs. I really like the shorter girls too, but that's not a necessity. I actually prefer a little bit of chubbiness in my women. I find the skinny types to be a bit appalling. That healthy layer of fat is a real turn-on for me actually. Women can be curvy and attractive while having that healthy chub.

As for my non-physical tastes I like my women with a sense of humor. I like the layed back and easy going types. Huger plus for gamer chicks. I've never had the privilege of dating a gamer girl, unfortunately. I knew one I was interested in but she turned me down. All she really did was ask me to come over whenever she needed me to fix her PC. I think next time I'll just refuse and say I'm busy.

Yeah, I'm definitely getting a sense of Deja Vu here, but regardless, I care way more about personality than anything else. I like a girl that is sweet, kind, and shy. I find that adorable.

In terms of physical attributes, though. I like a short girl with medium sized boobs (big boobs intimidate me. A B cup is all I want). Also, Asian if possible.

Yes I'm pretty sure this has been done before but so hell, it's better than most of the repeat topics.

As far as looks go my standards aren't too high, so long as they don't look like they've just crawled out of a car wreck, because well, lets face it I'm no Brad Pitt myself. I just look for somebody I can have a good conversation with and has a good sense of humour. They could be a supermodel/pornstar/millionaire but if they were incredibly boring I wouldn't be able to put up with them....for very long....OK maybe I would. But I wouldn't enjoy it!

Physically I tend to like women shorter than me (which isn't too hard) and that have some curves.

Telling the truth although I'm not very superficial, there is a cutoff point somewhere between plain and Yeti.

I have too open standards, I quickly become slightly infatuated with anyone, kind like a moth flittering between a bunch of lights.

Are you me? No, that's crazy, I'm me. I think...

So, yeah. Basically, what he said.

I hope I'm not you, that would be terribly awkward.

if history is anything to go by, i love psychotic women who treat me like a doormat. essentially ladies in need of "saving" ie personal crisies, addictions, depression, ect. I have been able to curve it recently however

and yet i remain dateless...

Shorter, smaller, cuter and colder. For some reason, I can't feel comfortable with a girl with a higher body temperature than me.

Also have a thing for girls smarter than me.

Asian is a plus, but that seems to be par for the course in nerd land.

I lawd, and lawd, and lawd.

I am into women that makes me as submissive as possible
and those who are into videogames/fencing/paintball

Think of me as a companion cube,
You need to compress me with valor and initiative in the relationship
yet you need colorful patterns (interests/hobbies) that I might absorb.

Cleanliness is definitely a factor for me. Showering isn't that hard.

Size 6 or less for me...I know, it's chauvanistic, but oh well. That and she's gotta have a pretty face, good hips, be incredibly funny, be smart but not too smart, can cook well, speaks a foreign language or english is her second language, and most importantly, pushes me to do things that I wouldn't do normally...

First: they have to get at least 1/3 of my obscure references

Second: Knowledge of Videogames, Music, and literature (sort of ties into the first)

Third: Appearance matters little, just not morbidly obese or easily mistaken for an orc.

Geeks, oktaku and metalheads get a +3 to CHa checks, +10 if all three, instant engagement if all three and the aforementioned preferences.

I like a woman who is not dingy. I like a fairly intelligent woman. Looks are not completely important for me, but I still want to be attracted to her looks wise. I like to have a woman who is as tall as I am but it's not important (and hard to find since I'm 6 foot 2). Skinny but not toothpick, laughable, no drugs, clean, and I think that covers it.

Any girls in here off Chance?

Good luck with the height thing =].
