What does a guy mean when he says, "She's not my type?"?

Answer 1

I think for every man and woman there is a small criteria that person has to fall into before they will take the next step and talk to he or she. Personally I don't like biker chicks. I am sure they are nice people, I have found that I don't relate to them very well, and I know that. That doesn't mean I wont talk to them, it just means that I really wouldn't really see them as anything other then just someone to converse with. Now since some people you have to get to know to really get all of there personality, it may be after a conversation that you realize you just don't have anything in common with that person. So to break it down, there is no relatability with that person. True some men and woman don't really care about that and just want to get naked with one another, but really that's where it ends. Hope this helps.

Answer 2

It means that person and I are not compatible and would end in misery or just us being friends.

For example, I have a minimum criteria that I'm looking for in a woman when I date. These things are important to me and if she doesn't fit, then she just doesn't fit. I've dated or have been interested in enough women that were not my type and it all ended the same way, either as friends or complete misery on my part.

But I think everyone should have some kind of criteria. It's a good way to filter out all the mess and get to someone that you really want. If you want to adjust that's fine (which I've done a number of times) but fact is in order to be truly happy in that relationship that base criteria must exist.

Answer 3

In terms of relationships, some mean it when they're not interested in them or if there's overall too many things they don't like about that person.

In my case when someone isn't my type it could mean both, but more of the second part meaning I don't think we're compatible or there's too much I don't like or not interested in.

Basically when they don't meet my 'criteria'.

That's why a lot, if not all, of girls are not my type. :p

But then even if someone was, I still am likely not to go into relationships. Being someone's type is just 'the first step', in order to accept them....it doesn't mean that they will go into or want an relationship.

Answer 4

This is a multi-faceted statement. When a guy says "she isnt my type" he could mean that she is too fat, too skinny, too tall, too short, too ugly. And some guys will really throw you for a loop because its not their body that hes talking about i.e., her attitude, her character, her personality. Seriously I could go all day listing the reasons that a guy might say that but to be honest a guy may not always even be able to pinpoint why he feels that way about a certain girl. There is just something he doesnt like about her

Answer 5

It's a nice way to say you don't find someone attractive, meaning it's not because they are ugly or anything, just not the type that turns 'em on.

Answer 6

What do women mean by he's not my type?

Answer 7

Well everybody is attracted to different kinds of people. My friends think some girls are amazing that I would never date, soo everybody has a "type" that they want to be with.

Answer 8

It means she doesn't look or act like someone he wants to be with. Like if he is a skater and she is a prep, probably not his type.

Answer 9

Answer 10

that your looks are not what he finds attractive.im sure certain guys you look at are really nice looking to you and others arent.same for guys.they are more into the look,then women are ,we also look at the inside of a person.
