I don't know why but i go crazy and MELT when I meet or see a well-spoken and articulate guy. I'm not talking about those kind of people who speak "big words" and make it seem like they're smart - just very well spoken guys. Guys who (when bugged with nosy and rude questions) are able to be SMART with their answers and answer it with sense, truth, yet keeping it as vague as possible. I wish I can be articulate - I've been told I am but I don't see myself that way (however I would love to to be). I used to do speech competitions back in the day and have been told I'm a good speaker so maybe that's why I like articulate guys?
I also LOVE a smart guy... very well educated in what's he's passionate about. Not so much the label, such as a doctor but if he's into law, politics, medicine... anything he's passionate is just "sigh* I'm not looking down on guys who aren't educated at all. I dated one but as much as I cared for him, a big reason why we didn't get along was because we came from different backgrounds. I grew up with education being an important value, almost family tradition... and he didn't. We couldn't have conversations or talk about what was going on in the world... and his opinion was (at times) limited. So definitely someone smart is AMAZING

Also, someone with manners. Bad manners or lack of consideration for others (or just being unaware of decent manners) is a definite turn off. I grew up with my parents grilling my sister and I if we didn't have good manners... it bothers me when people are just clueless (all the time).. good manners is a must!
And I think we all have to agree with this but a BEAUTIFUL smile
yes, i agree physical attraction is a must. Anyone who calls you shallow bc of that is a liar, seriously. But w. physical attraction: to each their own.
