We sort of know that being tall, athletic, and good looking are attractive traits. However, many guys falsely believe that it’s all about physical attributes. We tend to assume that like us, women place a lot of importance on ‘looks’.

This assumption is a mistake. While women do respond to physical attractiveness, behavioral attributes are also a big turn on for them.

It turns out that these behaviors are the same ones that we find admirable in other men. Things like confidence, assertiveness, independence, adventurousness, energy, daring, strength of character, and healthy self esteem, among many others.

So you don’t think you’re a romantic? Think again.

If you’ve ever enjoyed your partner’s reaction after doing something that pleased her, you’re a romantic.

If you like hearing an occasional love song on the radio, then you’re a romantic.
