A Northern accent helps too.

Alittlexmasmagic · 22/12/2020 08:39

The right aftershave! For example, when you're walking down the street and a man passes you, you barely notice him until you get a whiff of a nice scent and it makes you turn around to see who it belonged to.x

Intelligence, razor sharp wit,wordsmith. Kind.

blubberball · 22/12/2020 08:42

I like this thread a lot.

tara66 · 22/12/2020 08:44

Sense of humour.

vampirethriller · 22/12/2020 08:44

Muscley arms and big thighs. Having said that though I fancy Gene Hunt.

Coffeeeeandcake · 22/12/2020 08:49

Mental and emotional stability, calmness and transparency. Men who function strongly in those areas do it for me as it makes me feel safe.

Positivevibesonlyplease · 22/12/2020 08:49

A nice voice - which says interesting and intelligent things. Also shoulders, back and forearms Wink

Driving across the country to spend literally 12 hours with me and meet my family last Christmas. Knew he was a keeper then. First Christmas together this year and his girls are coming to us (adults)

@lasttangoinscunthorpe

DP is a police officer. When he comes home from work in uniform with a short sleeved shirt on, forearms bare...
The black short sleeved uniform shirts are just OMG amazing... you lucky, lucky thing...! Wink

I'm another one that appreciates the rolled up sleeves.

And DP when he fawns over the cats like they're his children, despite always previously having claimed to not be a cat person!

Smiley eyes!

@stopgap

Excellent sense of humor. Thick thighs.
I read that as 'thick tights' and was like Confused takes all sorts!
TheVanguardSix · 22/12/2020 09:08

Dark hair and lots of it. Dark eyes, every time.
The eyes. Warm and melting, slightly downturned with a beautiful, warm smile.
Good hands, strong forearms. Physical strength. Gentle heart. Quiet.
A whiff of Chanel Allure Homme sport or Dior Fahrenheit.
Humour!

@NoShitHemlock Grin

The first bit of your post absolutely though.

binkyblinky · 22/12/2020 09:15

Veiny, muscly arms, beards, soldiers uniform (over 40)
James Hatfield

RedRec · 22/12/2020 09:25

What the hell is it about forearms? But totally agree.
Funny, quietly confident, takes care of his physical appearance. And a knowing look, meant just for me. And good texts can be very sexy.

CounsellorTroi · 22/12/2020 09:31

Curly hair makes me come over a bit unnecessary. It’s not a deal breaker though. DH does not have curly hair and he still makes me come over a bit unnecessary!

PeachesBright · 22/12/2020 09:41

Uniform. DP is a firefighter and the uniform makes me swoon. Especially when he comes home a bit sooty and smelling of fire.

Dark hair or ginger (I don't find blonde attractive).

Confidence that doesn't spill over into arrogance/cockiness.

Kindness and compassion. Treats others (and animals) well. Says a lot about someone.

Competence. DP just knows how to fit/fix things. Recent examples - services my car, fitted our kitchen, changed the locks, re-hung a door.

Deep voice. Quite like a Scottish accent too. Geordie/Scouse are a complete turn off.

lifeinacupoftea · 22/12/2020 09:45

When he's driving and I'm sat next to him.

Fishfingersandwichplease · 22/12/2020 09:47

A bit of facial hair - not too much, just enough.
A well cut expensive suit - With nice shoes. DH is a manual worker so always looks tatty and he loves an excuse to dress up and smell nice
A guy who can do a bit of DIY- ex was fucking useless!

NiceLegsShameAboutTheFace · 22/12/2020 09:51

In good nick
Shaved hair
Piercing eyes
Dazzling smile

ChristingleAlltheWay · 22/12/2020 09:57

Lovely voice.

My mum's in hospital atm and I spoke to the the on the ward yesterday. He was gorgeous! No idea what he looks like but I could have spoken to him all day, and then some!

lazylinguist · 22/12/2020 09:59

Intelligence, sharp sense of humour, nice suits. Blye eyes with dark hair.

DreadingSeason2020sFinale · 22/12/2020 10:00

When my husband is wearing a long sleeved top and pulls the sleeves up just below his elbows. I don't know why it's so sexy on an already good looking man. I now understand how women showing ankles in Victorian times caused such a stir!

Derelictwreck · 22/12/2020 10:00

In a good suit and then loosening the tie and rolling up the sleeves... *comes over all faint
