I'm not very wealthy or handsome, but I am honest, dependable, trustworthy, humble, and (from what people tell me) funny. Yet I can't catch a break. Are women *really* looking for these qualities, or do do they want more of a "bad boy"?

You're the type of guy who seems to have all the qualities that really count. And when the right one comes along, she will LOVE you for them. And thats all that will matter. I think mostly you're just going to have to believe in yourself and have faith that theres a woman out there for you...and be patient, thats a big key...and the lady who finally gives you a chance is going to love those qualities. It seems physical appearance is halfway to mostly important right away...but its all those qualities you listed that matter once the relationship begins. Anyone worth your time will agree.
Some ladies do have that bad boy attraction...but if you change yourself for that you may just miss a great one out there who wants someone like you and not a bad boy.
We like someone who can make us laugh, but doesn't have to try hard to do it...someone who does cute things for us - but not excessively..
Someone who CARES about her feelings and shows it by listening and trying to understand..
and being honest is big..dependable is big...all those qualities you have are key for a long term relationship. So once 'the one' finally comes along.. I believe your relationship will go far because if you're really how you said..those are the things that matter. So just believe you're worth it...shes out there.
by the way all those ASSHOLES who answered up above saying women just want money and you have to trick us...those are the losers who know women SO LITTLE that is why they are bitter and single. Don't listen to that CRAP

Its Cause were the more aggressive gender. We get to the point and we check out who were interested in. Its the whole evolutionary thing coming into play. We are more of a multimate setup and woman are more of a single mate setup. That how we are able to keep on lookin. Plus the women we like stay the same age but we keep on aging. Rape does happen with Women but no as much as vice versa. When we are friends with a girl (esp an attractive girl) we always will go for the opportunity to lay the pipe if given other wise if she ugly then were just gonna be friends. I wouldnt say fall in love. Men are more visual then women so physical looks matter much more for us then you girls. End over end, we just built different then you. And our goals can be very different then yours thus leading to misunderstandings and misconceptions.

I can only speak for myself...it's not what a guy looks like, but how well he treats me that counts.
Before I got married, I wasn't necessarily looking for wealth or good looks. I was looking for the qualities you say you have, plus the ability and desire to be faithful.
You say you "can't catch a break." Do you have a genuine interest in a woman and really listen to what she says? Or are you too stuck on yourself? Is it always "my way or the highway"? Women are more "feeling" oriented then men; are you willing to accept that and not act bored when she talks about her feelings?

I can only speak for myself, but throw in "reasonably intelligent", and "monogamous" and you're a "keeper".
Too many women are looking for that spark of passion - which usually means sexual excitement on sight - and that's why bad boys can win. But, they're pretty fickle.
And then there are the pure "gold diggers". 'nuf said.
Keep trying - nice guys do get the girls!

Recent observation at a party......
Nice attractive and intellegent women had boyfriends or husbands they were supporting. The guys were self centered, at times jerks, could converse about only 2 things, Sports and Sex.

no a woman wants a lad who be honest and caring... and can have civil chats about anything and everythin... make them happy, smile and laugh.... and being funny is also a quality.... and as long as you can be who you are around them and not pretend to be something or someone your not!!!!....so nice personality is essential not looks or wealth!!!...
