The dating game, that primal ritual people have to endure until they find what they want or, at least, will tolerate. They say the pickings are slim on both sides, with men complaining women only want money and women complaining that men are shallow and only interested in their physical attributes. Nevertheless, the courtships continue as people need people.

When it comes to

men, women have their checklist ready and at the waiting. Forget about that

emotional, spiritual connection, we are talking about what you can discern at

first sight which either appeals or repels you.

Here is a list of

things that does it for women:

1. Fingernails: Homeboy better not be

looking like he’s a mechanic with grease under his nails. Unless, he is a

mechanic and just left the shop.

2. Teeth: Even if they are crooked, which

he may not be able to anything about, just yet, they should at least be clean.

3. Shoes: A man who pays attention to his

shoes will pay attention to other minute details.

4. Legs: That’s kinda self-explanatory.

5. Package: Women seem to think that they can

discern size with a glance.

6. How he carries himself: Whether he has

swag/confidence or he stoops and looks awkward.

7. What he says: If his first words are a

cheesy pick up line, you are gone.

8. Ensemble: Is he flashy and wears lots

of jewellery? Wear name brand pieces from head to toe or is he more subdued?

9. Eyes: They’re not called the ‘windows

to the soul’ for nothing.

10. Height:  A tall drink of water may just be what the

doctor ordered.

11.Ring finger: Y’all know men out here be

brazen.
