Search Results: what are most guys looking for

It has happened to me once and to my 2 female friends. We were 16 year-olds at the time but he was mature for his age. I actually did fell in love with him for both his looks and other traits such as a good, family-oriented boy, he was kind to others and liked reading and liked animals. He thanked me, said he felt flattered but wasn't interest in a romantic relationship, though we can be friends. I could tell he had a hard time saying all that.

If he would've rejected me harshly, called me bad names, acted grossed out or made a scene out of it, yeah I would've hated him forever or probably had self-esteem issues. It still hurt but much less than if he had been rude. We're still friends till this day and both of us dated others.

This happens to guys too. Who do you think gets hurts the most? The man or the woman?

Say for example she still gets attention from guys, wears clothes that flatter her figure, but she doesn’t ever wear makeup or dresses so looks ‘dressed down’ most of the time even for fancy events. Another woman told me I didn’t look ‘normal’ and other women have told me maybe I should try makeup. I just don’t want to. At same time I clearly don’t neglect my appearance as in shape. Is this odd or off putting?

Do you like them on potential partners? Why or why not?

Personally I'm not really in to them, I think naked skin is more attractive than inked. Though some smaller ones I've seen are cute, like these:

Most of all though, I dislike sleeve tattoos. It wouldn't be a dealbreaker for relationships, but it seems like 90% of men I know have a sleeve or they want one, I just think it's a boring trend and the minimal tattoo look is way more attractive on guys.
