I guess somebodies mind or personality doesn't matter.

If you think your physical attributes are what lands the hot girls you are very wrong.

Well-built guys surely attract women's attention but that's not our basis for dating. Besides, physical attraction varies from one person to another.

Personally, I am attracted to smart, mature men who have great disposition and good sense of values.

Right, but would you rather that guy looked like Vin Diesel or Will Ferrell?

The choice was: decently shaped or totally ripped. In the end, it doesn''t really matter. If the guy is totally ripped, that's just a bonus.

Not encouraging the guy to give up his gym membership. He should, in fact, stay more for health reasons.

I'm with Sasha. It really doesnt matter in the least. You can be attracted to a person who isnt totally ripped. Hopefully for most women, it doesnt matter.

^ thats what I mean. I'm sure muscles aren't most females top priority in a guy, but if the dude does happen to have abs of steel its not exactly a drawback right?

you can look as good as you want.. but if you open your mouth and nothing intelligent comes out, its done for.

it's intimidating for a lot of women too... it's safe to say that everybody's insecure about something (about themselves)... I was dating this chick one time that... wasn't in her best shape... I mean... she wasn't fat, but she wasn't any bikini model either... but that's NOT what I look for either... anyway, I had an extra pair of pants inside my car... and she saw the size... and was like... "...OMG!! You waist is almost as small as mine!!!..." She got all weirded out... and really insecure about being naked in front of me there after...


I get a lot of looks... but do I get a lot of dates? NOT really.



...but I should also add... don't cancel you gym membership because of this... have a membership for your health... and social reasons... but don't cancel it because you don't want to workout anymore because girls don't go for buff guys.

Just stay in reasonable shape, dress decently in your own style, be friendly and have something interesting to say. Yet be yourself. No one likes a fraud.

healthy attractive athletic females are attracted to healthy attractive athletic males. It gives them a commonality, in activity and lifestyle. You will never see some aerobics instructor dating a balding beer gut couch potato. Unfortunately, big muscular guys also tend to be total pricks, and that is where they fail to find a real treasure of a woman. If you are looking for a prize Barbi then keep getting ripped. If you want to get the perfect wife, keep getting ripped but keep your head about you.

Since im not a girl, i cant really answer the question, but being in very good shape, it does draw alot of attention, and like is300eater said, it also can make girls insecure around you.

Of course its not my encentive, but ppl think because i eat healthy, im going to judge them 24/7, thats not what im about.

Unless your a bubbling fat tub of lard, being ripped is just a really nice bonus opposed to being "in shape". But if its a 1 time thing, i believe the body apperance helps more.

Honestly, get a gym membership for yourself. I go to the gym for my own health and self-confidence - not for my gf. If you feel self conscious, then by all means, get the gym membership and buff up so you can have more confidence in yourself.

I'll say this is WAY, WAY, WAY off base.

If one doesn't take care of himself he will not land a great gal.

Sure totally ripped is going overboard but honestly...turn it around. Would a man want to date a 5? Hell no. Same for woman hot women, they can get a 8-10 and shouldn't settle for anything less.

My wife has straight out told me that she wouldn't like me if I was a big muscle kind of guy. I am just looking to have some muscles where they are supposed to be.

You all know you want some fuck with bulging muscles, an 11" dick, and a bank account to rival Donald Trump's.

While we're on the subject, I have to say that the lead singer of Living Colour (circa 1989) had the best body I have ever seen on a man.

Im out of shape and have a great girl.

Girls dont care about physical looks as much as guys do. Thats why you always see hot chicks with ugly guys.

Women aren't as attracted to big muscle guys usually. If you get too big, you start getting second and third looks from gay guys (some of who are just as big or bigger), like the guy in my avatar. You don't want that (obviously). I think physically, girls will appreciate a lean, in shape guy, all other things being equal!

Don't cancel your gym membership, just don't lift as heavy. Do more reps at lower weight so you don't get super bulky.

Unlike a lot of men, women aren't usually willing to sacrafice a little bit of intelligence in their man for good looks.

Men and women (hopefully) want the same thing, a best friend to spend their lives with. At minimum be easy on the eyes but dont get caught up in your looks either.

Ripped athletic guy w/good personality BUT insecure about how he looks and not much confidence will get less girls then a out of shape guy who is confident and secure.
