    That is Sienna Miller. Jude Law (Alfie) was actually engaged to her in real life and then he slept with this chubby, plain nanny and things went askew after that.

    As for the movie, I know what he was talking about... With the cracks in Aphrodite... When you get too close to somone you find flaws, whether real or imagined, that were not there in the beginning. Everyone has those flaws though, and it becomes a question of commitment...

    Zoom, zoom, zoom....

    Personality and chemistry are the biggest things to me, as long as I am attracted to the person. I would say at least 75% of females either annoy me or I think they would annoy me over time, and most of your stereotypical "bombshells" are included in this. I've dated one in the past just to give it a shot, and while she was intelligent her personality just didn't do it for me and I knew in my mind it wasn't going anywhere.

    As for looks I prefer brunettes, but I'm not all that picky as long as they aren't skin and bones.

    Look man, its all subjective. I just got out of a 3.5 year relationship with a girl who was really hot...it was just her personality that would get to me. She was raised rich, and as such didn't have the "Training" if you will in the common sense department. She wasn't a very nurturing or loving girlfriend, never really called unless I told her specifically to. Always made me feel like I was the last thing on her mind. So no, looks arent everything.

    Yeah...thing was that I met her at a videogame store where we both worked. She loved videogames and was a part time model :eek: . And she liked me. She was very beautiful, but just didn't really know how to be a good girlfriend. She'd buy me all sorts of stuff with her parents money, but never really made me feel like I was the most important person in her world. Never stay in a relationship based on looks or money or anything like that, its tempting but there's going to be a permanent hole drilled in your head until its over. It was such a wierd situation because of how great she was on paper, kinda like the Rockets of last year.

    I'm gonna take some flack for this, but appearance isn't the be all end all. I have mostly dated women most of you would consider fat. But each and every one of my ex-girfriends have been extraordinarily smart, witty and personable. My current gf is the best of the bunch.

    I think if you find someone who is warm and genuine and cares about you, then you are ahead of the game.

    I own one hard rule. The girl can't weigh more than me. That being said, my wife of almost 10 years is a serious looker and I have no business being with her based on looks alone. Fortunately I'm a cocky b*stard and I didn't allow it to stop me from asking her out.

    Well I'm going to share my standards for a man:

    -must love the Rockets
    -must love metal music
    -must be romantic
    -must be at least 6 ft 2 (a whole head taller is so sexy)
    -must be able to make me laugh
    -must be easygoing
    -decent looking (weight doesn't really matter, but a face that doesn't send kids running away screaming would be nice)

    And thanks to the BBS, I found a guy that fits all the above, but in addition is &$%#ing hot. :cool:

    The way I see it, we're all going to eventually get fat and ugly, so basing relationships on looks is silly.

    5'4-5'5 Not too skinny, but nice bust and butt. Must have nice teeth and dimples are a plus.. Bad breath usually ends up in me not talking to them again.

    I would prefer that she knows how to dance and good in bed... virgins aren't always good in the latter department.

    I'm high on common sense and street-smarts... seriously, I've been with a girl who's all book smarts but when I make a joke and talk about normal stuff she's like "hmm.. what?" luckily she's done and gone.

    I hate girls who says "eeww" to everything and especially the ones that are scared of a football when I pass one their way. Sometimes even a ping pong ball, I don't understand those kinds.

    These are usually the spoiled, annoying ones that can't do simple everyday things like open a bottle of water.

    Umm.. that's pretty much it for right now..

    My standards that must be met when it comes to serious relationships...

    - Attractive enough that I want to have sex with her regularly. No butterfaces. No fatties. Any race will do.
    - Kind, considerate, honest.
    - Has a sense of humor.
    - At least smart enough to challenge me intellectually now and again.
    - Laid back and not a big "party girl".
    - Non-drug user.
    - Wants kids.
    - Not particularly religious. Not that there's anything wrong with it, but it's just not my lifestyle.
    - Has some sort of career. Currently in school, out and seeking employment, already employed, etc.

    That's about it. I don't really have a type as far as age (within reason), height (within reason...no midgets), race, type of dress, musical preferences, talents, etc. Plus I think half of my list is pretty much par for the course of being a productive and enjoyable human being (career, smart, kind, sense of humor, not drugged out). So the challenge for me is to basically find a normal girl who I find attractive, isn't terribly religious, and who wants kids. I don't consider that picky.

    But she definitely has to be a Rockets fan :D

    I'm married now, but when I was single, I didn't discriminate when it came down to picking up women for a fun night.

    I never 'dated' women in a traditional sense, but when it came down to relationship material:

    As far as looks go:
    -5'2 or shorter (I'm 6'1)
    -Brunette
    -Big breasts
    -Takes pride in her appearance, but also looks great laying around in pajamas on a lazy day.
    -Good skin
    -Good fashion sense
    -Relative good health. I don't need a workout junkie, but no guts, please.

    Personality
    -Laid back
    -Good sense of humor
    -Common sense/street smarts
    -Ability to defer to me
    -Liking sports is a bonus, but not key. I'm realistic about women's interests.
    -Good kisser/likes to kiss

    Abslutely NO smokers.

    I think it goes without saying that every guy likes an uninhibited girl with a high libido. Personally, I never liked virgins. I didn't want to break them in and overcome their inhibitions.

    Above anything else, I'd say that sense of humor and good sex in a relationship keeps it going long-term.
