Strange Qualities that Attract You

Okay, so last night the new boy I am digging on and I were hanging out and something was said about him being a lefty.
It is strange but I realized that I am attracted to left handed men.
SERIOUSLY!
This guy is left handed, my recent ex is left handed, my ex fiancee is left handed. I counted it up and about 85% of the guys I have dated are left handed. I am talking about 9 of the last 10 guys I have dated have been left handed!
Now- throw this into the mix... my pops is a lefty.
NOW- is this a Freudian thing? AND- It isn't like you can tell from looking at someone that they are left handed... it isn't like blue eyes or something. NO-
SO,
Please tell me someone else has a strange quality that they like?!?!
I mean I feel so weird. And I realize that I really do find a man that is left handed more attractive. I guess because so few people have that quality.

I always fall for drummers. Except for the guy from Journey.

Military guys and church boys.

I always go for the emotionally unavailable men...or a Jewish boy! LOL

NOT THAT THEY ARE THE SAME THING...

I have this thing for men with small/girly hands... not like the guy himself is feminine or anything but I always date guys with small hands... not that it's a bad thing but I noticed that... I even dated this huge football player type person and he had small/girly hands... I just noticed this when you mentioned the whole lefty thing...

You would think I'm attractive then

I go for somewhat "nerdy" guys. Not the pocket protector type, rather, the type that would rather go to the movies on Saturday night. The kind that doesn't drink or smoke, never tried any drugs. The kind that doesn't like to set foot into the party/club scene. The kind that is quiet and does really well in school. Yeah, most of this is totally opposite of me! Another thing I just realized, most of the guys I've dated like oldies. Oh my gosh! I'm the nerd!! LOL

w the exception of mr. amycat-- all my exes are aquarians. it was freaky how that happened. I'd meet a new guy, be digging on him, ask when his birthday is, he'd say Feb 2nd, and I'd just say, of course it is! Seriosuly, from HS up to just before Mr amycat--all aquarians.

I don't know if this is really strange but I am attracted to guys with rough hands, I know someone said they like small/girly hands. I like the exact opposite. The more rough and callused up they are the more I like them

I know that I also go for the guy who isn't traditionally cute, maybe I just have weird taste in men....I dunno. Great teeth also do it for me....they have to be perfect or else I don't like to look at their faces....I am a weirdo.

I've always dated guys who were by no means ugly... not even close... but that aren't so hot that every girl would drool over them.

i don't normally check out a guys hands I just all of a sudden realized that all guys that I have dated have smaller hands... I don't think it's necessarily something I like though... just something that is coincidental...

I tend to like guys who are very youthful. It helps if they are younger than I am and they say cute things like "You're the dope shit." That drives me crazy!

I also like guys who don't really give 2 craps about fashion and what not -- they have to look good, but not really care about it and not make an effort. If he only has 3 pairs of pants and doesn't comb his hair, it's all good. He better not iron or use hair gel.

I like the dorky guys too, not ur typical hot guy, but cute in their own right. They r usually funny, and sweet too. Oh I also like baseball players, just something about them.......

musicians in general...but i know of PLENTY of people that like that

My friends are always harping on me because of the guys I fall for. I guess because I'm attracted (usually- but I've been straying off it lately..) to the typical "metal/goth" kind of guy. (Forgive me- but music is a big thing w/ me and if you don't like Metallica well then i'm sorry, it's not going to work! hehe)
There have been times my friends and I have been checking guys out while we're out someplace and some tall, thin, pale guy w/ dark hair and painted black nails (yeah, i think guys w/ nail polish and eyeliner are sexy) will walk buy and i'll be like "ooh he's a cutie" and they LAUGH at me like i'm JOKING!

Chalk that one up w/ the rest of them.
