I have always preferred nerdy cute men over arrogant attractive men. i adore men who are attractive, funny and intelligent but have NO IDEA how wonderful they really are. i also prefer a man who doesnt look in the mirror all day, and spend all day in the gym staring at himself and measuring his muscles. i'm totally fine with the skinny, goofy type. I find they are less arrogant, a lot more kind and less prideful when showing the women in their life how happy they are to be together in a relationship.
i have not had the same experiences with men who have "women falling all over themselves" to be with them. the more attractive a man thinks he is, the less he will make his actual girlfriend/wife feel wanted, loved and cared for. this has been my experience. as if Mr. Hot shows any type of love and how "he cant live without her" feelings, this will make him less of man. the man with "many options" never feels he has to do much to keep a woman happy in the relationship, yet feels entitled to to it from the his woman. to be with a man like this, is stressful, and not very fun.
the only time, Mr. Hot will try to "get" a woman, is when she treats him as if he doesnt exist. again, stressful and just a whole lot of game play.
i blame Lloyd Dobler, the character in the movie Say Anything for my choice in men. He was cute, but lacked the arrogance that comes with being attractive. he was so sweet and treated Diane Court like a princess.
by that, i dont mean he showered her with gifts and fancy dinners. he showed her love, attention, affection and made her feel like she was the only woman in the world for him. i strongly believe thats all women really want. even the most shallow bitch will cheat on her rich man/husband because he spends all his time with his buddies or at work.
Lloyd Dobler didnt over-do it, he just did what he felt, regardless of the outcome. i like that.
