Which traits do girls find attractive in guys? Meaning physical traits or personality traits. Be honest. I'm really curious about this.

^^ Amen.

And the willingness to take the woman at her word. To believe her, in other words, when she tells you something she considers important; and to take her seriously when she's speaking seriously.

If you want a magic formula, that's probably it right there.

Having your life together(job status, car status, House status) besides thst it’s depending on the individual woman.
One might like homour but another might find homour annoying.

Someone with a compatible sense of humour and similar life goals.

Someone who enjoys deep and interesting conversations.

Can make each other laugh

I like chubby tall guys with deep voices in regards to physical stuff.

Someone laid back is always a plus, too.

Kindness is the most important to me.
Genuinity is a close second. I like guys who doesn't try to act tougher than they are. Those loud, buffly alpha-male kind of dudes is the most off putting thing I know.
I appreciate intelligence, but I could go without, and it really doesn't matter if the above criteria isn't met.

As far as appearance goes, I do like beards, but I really don't have a preference.

Some things that come to mind:

Authenticity / Strong sense of self
Similar sense of humour
Honesty & openness
Introversion
Rational-mindedness
Politically left

Physically I just like what I like. There's no specifics really.

Then I still have a long way to go. I don't own a car or a house.

You described me to a tee but if I stick to a diet I'll soon be a thin tall guy. I already lost 4 kilograms.

Someone comfortable with themselves, not arrogant, and they can have doubts, but they would have to believe ultimately in their own judgement.
Honourable, even when it's inconvenient, expensive, unpopular, or even dangerous.
Nice manners.

The traits most universally attractive are confidence and a sense of homour. The only debate is over where the line between confidence and arrogance is and what's funny. Also men are more attractive when they are interacting with pets or doing manual things like putting up fences ect.

Interesting. I get the humour and the pets, and it is truly fascinating watching my boyfriend building a motorcycle. But I've never considered confidence as a partner-criteria. However, most of my previous partners have been confident, and that's how I ended up with them. Because they were confident enough to basically drag me into a relationship. Makes me wonder if confidence really is attractive, or if confident people are just better at getting what they want?

I'd go for a chubby short guy any day. I bet it makes for really great hugs!
