lmao @ speedy
About the thread topic - yes women probably are more attracted to the Bond type than the Bland. BUT maybe if you're lucky you'll meet someone with who you can just drop the bull-shit and really talk and just get along. When I went on the first date with my new girlfriend, I was waxing on about skydiving, then I stopped for air and asked her what she did on her weekends. She replied with the usual non-skydiving stuff, shopping, socializing etc. - I replied 'Is that ALL???'. She then put down her glass, looked me in the eyes and said that she hoped there was more to me than this arrogant attitude and that she understood that I was just trying to impress her but it was having the opposite effect. Tell you what, this just totally rocked my jaw. She was totally serious and I totally knew I wanted to keep seeing her. Anyway, everything you hear about what women want in men, thats all bull-shit - be your own best friend and when you meet the right woman it'll be easy because she'll like you for who you are.
But hell, if you're still in your early twenties, don't worry about it - just enjoy yourself. But it is true that when you hit your mid-twenties (OK OK, I'm almost 30 dammit!!) it does get easier - not so much because the women's attitudes change (although they do) but also because you get a bit more laid-back about things and you start to realize that if things don't work out with this girl then life goes on and sooner or later another one will be along.

Nathan, I had to reply on this one because I found my self in the same situation into my middle thirties (I'm 47 now and married). I have to admit that part of the problem was myself, I wasn't as nice as I thought I was, I never abused any women or anything like that, but I was a bit on the lazy side when it came to relationships and probably came off a bit dull as well. However, that said, I do think many women, not just ones in their early 20's, do have a yen for the bad boy. Then they spend all their time complaining about how insensitive men are. But it still boils down to controlling what you can control, and not worrying about what you can't. Women you run into are going to be what they're going to be, and you can't change them. And vice versa. So be yourself, do what you want to do and don't worry so much about having to meet women. As, I think it was Jessica who said it so eloquently about how women can smell desperation (maybe they smelled it on me awhile ago), don't worry about meeting women, if you are enjoying yourself in what you do women will want to meet you. If they don't, keep on enjoying what you're doing.
