You probably have noticed that not all girls prefer the same type of guy. This is because each girl has a certain type or taste when it comes to guys. Girls look for different traits, qualities, and features in their ideal guy. While these preferences vary from one girl to another, there are also several qualities in a guy that most girls find attractive.

What qualities do you have?

Have you ever asked yourself questions like "Why doesn't she like me?" or "Why is it that ladies are flocking around me?" You know what? While it is not possible for each and every girl to take interest in you, there are things you can do to make yourself generally attractive to a lot of girls. Truth be told, no one is born a man. Every man is made. And if you are to be a man winning the admiration and respect of girls, you would have to exhibit these 20 qualities. These are the top 20 characteristics that most girls would love to see in a guy.

#1. Appealing physical characteristics

Before you can even say anything, your physical appearance is enough to make an impression. Quite frankly, a girl who does not find you physically attractive in any way may not want to enter into a relationship with you regardless of your other great qualities or potential. Looking physically attractive results from appropriate dressing and proper grooming. It also involves have a fit body and adhering to a healthy lifestyle. Even if you are not genetically blessed with great features, you can still look physically attractive if you make an effort. So, don't be among the numerous double-standard guys who go about searching for good-looking girls but don't make effort to be good-looking as well. Always dress nicely, use a subtle fragrance, and stay fit. Girls like guys that are good-looking.

In addition to being physically attractive, the next important thing girls look out for in guys is honesty. They want to be sure you mean what you say and say what you mean. Most girls feel betrayed and unhappy when they discover you are being economical with the truth especially on important matters. When in a relationship with guys, ladies want honesty as much as they want physical attractiveness. Besides, no one will want to be in a relationship with a pathological liar no matter how attractive they look. Being honest with a girl will help you gain her trust. Be truthful when you talk. But then again, you may have to exercise some caution while displaying honesty in some situations. You don't tell a girl she's ugly or too fat to prove you are being honest. Even if she is, be polite and don't be too straightforward.

She doesn't want to see a guy clueless when it comes to decision-making. Therefore, as you build your body parts, build your character too.

This is one thing she really wants to see you demonstrate. Being in a relationship means paying for dates. Eventually, it may also mean paying for trips or bills.
