24 traits women find most attractive

5.  Humor

Laughter is an emotional shortcut. Once you’ve got someone laughing at something you’ve said, it means you are smart, socially adept, and not taking yourself too seriously. According to studies conducted by the Sage Journals,  humor is not only about being witty; it’s about creating an “inside world” between two individuals.

This is the “EQ” or Emotional Quotient. Do you have a way with people? Are you really listening to what the other person is saying, or are you simply waiting for your own chance to talk? Knowing how to connect and make women feel appreciated is a huge turn-on.

7. Ambition and purpose

It’s hard to ignore a man who really gives a damn. It needn’t be anything lucrative or prestigious; you may be passionate about your art or trade, your cause, or your own goals. The notion of having a “North Star” implies that you’re self-disciplined enough to create your own destiny rather than drifting through life aimlessly, something women love, it seems.

8. Lifestyle and energy

 

People are indeed attracted to vitality, and when you have an active social life filled with friends and interests, women can tell that you aren’t searching for your next hobby in your partner.

9. Height

It’s the elephant in the room of modern  dating. While many women claim they prefer taller  men, especially on dating sites, in the real world, this is often a secondary trait. The moment chemistry and personality enter the mix, height usually takes a backseat to how a man makes a woman feel.

10. Masculinity

This is less about “tough guy” stereotypes and more about having a protective aura, being decisive, and being reliable. Being a manly male involves being a “safe space.”
