Recently, more than ever I have realised that much of the problems that I have had with dating women may come from my need for women to be "up to scratch" both inside and outside. I am not sure whether this is something I have developed due to my father marrying the first women he met, however I have met only enough women that I really like to fit on one hand. The things I look for:

Outside

• Nice bum (small and tight)
• Nice legs
• Pretty face rather than any colour of hair
• I girl I am proud to show my mates (maybe abit shallow, but my mates opinion means alot to me)
• Slim
• Added bonus is nice eyes

Inside

• Adventurous (outdoor activities)
• Banter (fun with text messaging and in person, being light hearted about things)
• Confidence (some1 that is confident with themselves and inderpendant
• Talkative (someone that is willing to express themselves, I cant stand someone that doesn't have anything to say, I will send out hook points)
• Honesty
  

Looking back at that list, I am looking for the holy grail of women, however I find that a lot of these traits are interconnected, especially the inside characteristics.......

This underlying "list", maybe something that is holding me back when I meet someone, sub-consciously trying to find these traits in the women I talk to. Most of these traits are things I have found to like in women that I have liked prior.

Anyone have the same issue or any comments?

Cheers
