Girls - Un-charismatic guys

Girls, do you find guys that arent very charismatic attractive, I mean can a girl still fancy a guy who has little charisma and isnt overly confident in themselves?

In the grand scheme of things.. is it a huge turn off? Even if they are not shy?

Stupid question, I know, but It will be interesting to read the replys..

charisma is important.

It's the only type of guy I'm attracted to.

They all want blondes with a personality to match, though, and then complain when none of them take an interest.

Define charisma...

I could find someone attractive who wasn't charismatic sure, but as far as a relationship is concerned I really quite like being with a charismatic person! (Isn't a must though!)

Everyone is different though aren't they. :smile:

I think having charisma is an obvious bonus, but if a guy did not have it intially I would still give them a chance and would not be too put off by it etc.

Charisma - very different in different people.

"rare trait found in certain human personalities usually including extreme charm and a 'magnetic' quality of personality and/or appearance along with innate and powerfully sophisticated personal communicability and persuasiveness."

Well charisma can be the ability to inspire people and/or a personal attractiveness due to shared interests.

So most people can be seen as charismatic by different people. A girl who really liked her sports would probably think that any guy who knew all the rules of football, had a real passion for it etc is charismatic. Whereas a girl who hated football would not think he had charisma.

I think it would only be a turn off if the guy had no personality i.e no interests, no opinions etc.

Charisma is generally attractive. Not essential though...

I like charisma; that sparkly-eyed, relaxed conversationalist who doesn't talk much but you know could turn a line sometimes.

:ditto: It depends more on the individual person I guess. Charm is good as long as it's not overused/abused to manipulate people, and overconfidence/cockiness can be offputting.

You have to wait until you're 30, they're 30, you're loaded and their biological clock is ticking I'm afraid. Sucks to be non charismatic.

You don't have to be charismatic but it helps. Confidence is more important. I went out with a lad once who was terrified of me cos I was a girl and spent the whole night mumbling and glancing at my boobs. I was not impressed.
