I love confident women. But as you probably know, dear Raven, there are no pure types. Sometimes we are all a bit confident and next hour we feel a bit needy and clingy. Which is cool. Personally, I am attracted, like a bug to a light, to confident women. Women with personality. Yes, it is nice to have a powerful mix of emotional side, intelligence, a sexy side. A good mix. Even if we have a lot of flaws, we are not perfect and this is what and who we are. A woman who is confident, doesn't need to be rescued (even though sometimes the romantic notion of rescuing and saving is powerful enough to makes us forget that we are frail human beings and we are suckers for that special sweet sensation where we feel we were rescued and we are rescuing someone, but still you are confident enough to don't need to be saved at all, if that makes any sense). A woman is desirable despite her many flaws. We men have a ton of flaws. I don't feel, never felt, I was attracted to the "rescue me baby" type and was steered away from what I thought I wanted. A lot of women from different types and background crossed my path. Each one, with their own background, was attractive enough with their flaws. They were real. I love real women. I tend to gravitate more towards the strong personality type because we mesh really well with each other. But sometimes I was the rescuer and savior and still the personality meshed so well with mine that I forgot she needed to be rescued. Intelligence is a must because rescue me baby or confident women type wont last too long if I dont feel we make a mental click, a connection.
