This is a question for men. Have you ever found yourself attracted to women that you may not have been attracted to when you first met. Or is the determination set from the moment you meet.

in my opinion, every guy has BOTH. Overtime he just decides whether you are a potentiel fling, wifey material, or none of the above lol

softtouchmale2003 agony auntI am usually attracted to the woman rather than her body or face. So I have to say I've dated some lookers and I've dated some women that had personality. Personality always wins.

Phsyciatrist-to-be agony auntYes: more than once I've found myself thinking of completely unexpected person I know. It can be quite bizzare, really.

But I think real attraction springs from sources that you've known for a while: personally, I can't see how well anything could work out between two people who've known each other for all of five minutes. I accept that it happens, but I'm not putting much hope toward the idea :L

So in answer, I say both happen, but as long as the attraction is there and strong, then, for me, whenever it came about is irrelavent.

Honest Answer agony auntThis fits my wife to a tee! When I first met her, she was engaged. I thought she was pretty, but knowing she was going to be married, I never looked at her as a possible mate. It wasn't until we started dating (long story and no cheating BTW), that I realized how hot she really was. And I must say, she is smoking Hot!

Both.. I cant feel a very powerful attraction at first glance. On the other hand as I have gotten to know women I have aften found myself becoming more attracted to them for their personality or seeing an aspect of them I didnt see at first.

i know you said men but - screw it i'm answering too lol I have gone out on two pity sort of dates with two guys i never would have dated in a million years because they were not by defination my type however shallow that makes me. But after going out on the dates i got to know them more and by knowing them better, i found myself more attracted to them. One of the guys i only dated shortly but the second guy i was in a long term relatioship with - okay on both situations it didn't work out happily ever after forever wise but i would not trade knowing these guys for the world. I wasn't attracted at all to them when i met them but they grew on me and i love them both very much for it - thus i no longer believe in love at first sight or judging a book by its cover. Same can be said for some hotties out there as i've gone out on a few days with some drool worthy guys but their personalities made them appearance ugly to me - i knew they were still attractive but it was no longer a turn on, they just didn't do it for me anymore. Thats my two cents - if you are not attracted now then just get to know the lass a little better, if nothing develops then who knows, maybe you'll have one more friend and thats never a bad thing in my book :)

For me, if there's going to be strong attraction later, there's attraction at first sight/meeting.

I've always been attracted to a woman I truly like when I've met her. And it's not happened often, so I'm not totally shallow or anything like that. If I meet her and get to know her, I usually know quickly whether I want to get to know her more or not. When I met my girlfriend who I'm still with, K knew instantly I really just wanted to get to know her more.
