A WOMAN'S GUIDE TO THE 3 TYPES OF MEN

Whether dating on Plenty of Fish, one of the largest free online dating sites available, or just shopping your local meat market this is one quick reference guide to get you thinking about who you are and who you are looking for.

Ladies and gentlemen, allow me to share a really inspiring bit of information on the 3 types of men you ladies are likely to run across and you gentlemen are likely to be. Oh, and further, may the sharing of this information enlighten you to a new level of understanding you may apply in your dating choices and personal lives.

The first kind of guy is likely to be a girl's least favorite type. This would be the guy that always agrees with you or generally has no confidence and tends to follow along with whatever the plan is because his character is not to take a stand about much of anything. Confident women, run from this type because dating someone like this makes them feel like the man in the relationship, and that's just doesn't work. We'll call him the "Nice Guy", the problem is he's too nice and just plain boring. Sadly I have been this type for a long time.

The second kind would be the "Arrogant Guy". This guy puts up a tough guy front and trys to act all macho. The problem is that he lacks the inner confidence to be who he is, so he ends up either putting on a show to pretend to be strong minded or he acts mean and nasty because he associates that persona with "not being the Nice Guy" and believes that some how this is what woman are looking for. (albiet he could be right at times since some women fail to tell the difference) This is the type of guy that I personally hate, and sadly, I had been contemplating becoming this type of guy, cuz after all what is a nice guy to do?

The third kind of guy is the Dominant Guy. Women are naturally drawn to him because he has a well balanced personality and knows the difference between leadership and control. He possesses a strong character and isn't afraid to say what he thinks or believes even when he knows it is not what his date may want to hear. He also knows that women want their man to be the leader, and he embraces that role.

He knows how to go about it in a respectful way, by standing firm, saying what he means and doing what he says, and making most of the decisions and plans. This is not to say that women wouldn't do these things at times as well, it just means that this guy is confident and secure in who he is and knows the difference between being inappropriately aggressive and arrogant, and being confident and secure in his manliness.

Types one and two generally won't cut it for a good quality woman. Type one guys lose a woman's respect in two minutes flat. Type two guys are more entertaining, but a good woman will run out of patience by the end of the first date or two, because they respect themselves and won't put up with that kind of treatment. Type three guys, are very hard to find (or develop into for the gentlemen reading this) but will definitely be worth the wait.

So, gentlemen don't give up, you have it here clearly spelled out for you. Start working on it. Ladies do consider this the next time you are dating a new guy, it may help save you from wasting your time. Class dismissed.

This article was inspired by my experiences with Plenty of Fish.com, a free online dating site and discovering more and more about who and how I want to be.
