List the qualites in a man that you REALLY look for. If you dont REALLY look to see how good a person he is, dont put it in the list. When you first meet a guy, and you start sizing him up to see what he's like, what do you REALLY look for?
Ya'll be honest.
-straight or cute
-nice smile
-smart
-can dress
-smell good (that's a turn on)
-respectful towards himself and everyone else
-has goals and is working towards them
-funny
-my height or taller
I ain't too picky just meet the standards and you might get a second date. :lol:

Now, if the dude was a cornball, you know you wouldn' give him a second date...t
1. If he looks in my eyes when he talks to me instead of other parts of my body.
2. The way he speaks... i love a man who seems to have an extensive vocabulary.
3. The way he carries himself... confident but not arrogant.
His physical characteristics are secondary.
Initially before being introduced the first thing that attracts me to a guy is his smile. Straight and white (not no crooked @$$ butter yellow teeth)!
Once we've been introduced he has to be able to be honest (i hate liars), funny (can't be serious all the times), outgoing (sometimes I can be shy and two shy people together just doesn't work), has goals (has to have plans to do something with his life)
That what I can think of right off hand!
He has to make me laugh
He has to be loyal -- (I rather be dumped than cheated on)
He can't have kids OR warrants
He has to be pursuing or already have a certificate...doesn't matter what, Engineering, post office, fixing VCRs, i don't care if its a 30 hour degree, he HAS to have a piece of paper saying he's good at something and can get a job for it.
Sometimes women (men too) can be a walking contradiction. Out of our mouths come the standards: I want him to be flamboyant yet quiet. That's an oxymoron if I ever seen one, like military intelligence. LOL At least you ladies express your desires because some women don't know what the hell they want. For you who do, great!!! Keep it up and hold true to your standards. I wrote this on another post like this one. Sometimes we don't have a list or the list is abandoned with maturity. Sometimes our lists go out the window from sheer desperation. Sometimes we don't necessarily have a list because we can't explain, that special someone in words.
Be patient, your prince will come. But for those complainin about the man shortage, I wrote this piece for you.
Lookin For the Right One
On numerous occasions I get to hear
How there are no good men left out there
That we either married, dogs or taken
Or we are on the DL and fakin’
See, I have a lot of female friends
Who’ve let their man dog them to the end
And then all men get placed
In the proverbial position of disgrace
I’ve often heard he’s too nice as the disposition
Like on a job interview and you overqualified for the position?
Oh, I see—you require drama
You like that liar with five baby mamas
Oh I see, a ni99a must have the propensity to slap a bytch
Sistah girl is that ni99a worth it?
See I noticed a few things as I grew
That you treat them like gold when they bad to you
On numerous occasions I get to hear
How there are no good men left out there
There are hardworking brothas who are blue collar
Not given a chance when they try to holla
Cuz some professional sistahs snub their noses and revel
Because they are not on the same educational level
But what about spiritual, emotional, intellectual
How about a brotha who is effectual
Or fervent in his endeavors to do
Anything possible he can for you
That great brotha who would
"Give you the sun, the rain, the moon, the stars and the mountains" if he could
What about the guy who’s been your friend
You know the one who you refuse to begin
A relationship with because he’s like a brother
Didn’t you know friends make the best lovers?
On numerous occasions I get to hear
How there are no good men left out there
What about the guy who has no game
Just average Joe is his name
He’s nice, intelligent and aiight lookin
But when you see him on the street you keep on bookin
To your destination that **** ni99a
Who gives you elation that **** ni99a
Well, ladies can you figure—you can’t change this man
“Oh he’ll come around—I understand”
Yeah right,
He fukkin you now, but who he with tonight??
And if that’s not the case
One Time is coming to search your place
On numerous occasions I get to hear
How there are no good men left out there
Baby girl, where are you lookin for them
The library, church, school you’ll find him
But where do you go to find love?
9 outta 10 times in the muthafukkin club
Then again, you can’t find love, love finds you
But rushing destiny is what many do
So you gonna take matters into your own hands
Then that’s when you miss out on the man
That God planned for you or you make the mistake
Of being with so many wrong men it’s too late
Cuz now you are burnt out and used
Emotionally and or physically abused
On numerous occasions I get to hear
How there are no good men left out there
There are women who see married men
And don’t care that it’s a sin
Who believe this man is gonna leave
To go with them—abandoning their families
Get a clue sister
Cuz Mister ain’t gonna take you—see
Why buy the cow when the milk is free?
On numerous occasions I get to hear
How there are no good men left out there
So next time you traverse down the street
Be mindful of the men you meet
Be cautious of the company you keep
The most unlikely candidate may be the one to sweep
You off your feet.
