Amazing Guy

[akthung]

I've been visiting other Forums and i'd like to bring a common question to GT:

What is an Amazing Guy?

so there Gals, para sa inyo ano ang mga attributes ng isang "Amazing Guy"?

Fire when ready!

[chocolate]

Amazing Guy is someone who will accept me completely.

[sarsingkit]

someone with lots of achievements either in school, work, personal life. i'd besurely amazed but not necessarily my type. 

[shalikah]

An amazing guy is someone who can keep up with a woman like me. 

[inluvewithmikewesten]

I guess a guy with lots of sense of humor

[sakura_bloom]

For me an amazing guy is someone who fights for what he believes in, always in the side of truth, smart, has a witty sense of humor, sees me as his equal, a freethinker. Someone who sees that being in a relationship is a commitment, that love is a decision. 

[adellaide]

Amazing Guy is someone who will accept me completely.

ditto. that sums it up.

What's odd is I met one, but there wasn't any spark (at least for me there wasn't).

Before I comment on this thread, I want to emphasize that I'm not gay. 

I've been reading and posting here in GT for ages na rin siguro.  May mga sisses and bros tayo na superb yung quality ng mga comment, yung tipong pinag iisipan and most probably, nagreresearch pa, not just relying on their experiences.

OA na ata, kundi man OT na itong post ko, kapag sinabing attributes ng amazing guy, I think we can examine the attributes of Paolo and akthung, kung paano sila nag prepare ng mga comments nila or on how they choose the topics na uumpisahan nila.    Sayang, kung naging guytalker si Aquacharly, "amazing guy" din sana siya.

[janix athena]

I agree. I admire Akhtung, Paulo, Mr. Punch and Aquacharly too. TS, If I may ask, when you say "amazing", do mean amazing enough to love, or just enough to admire? Kasi when I was thinking of my answer to your post, I had my husband in mind. For me, sya yung epitome ng amazing, not merely because of a list of qualities  I can list here, but more importantly because of how he makes me feel. Simple lang kaming girls. You capture our hearts and for us ikaw na ang dabest sa lahat ng bagay.

What make my husband amazing is that he is:
1) Very responsible. Breadwinner siya sa family nya but he manages to balance our needs as a new couple with his obligations with his mom, sister and nephew.

2) A People-person. He's always elected as president everywhere because he has such good rapport with everyone.

3) Very romantic. He gives me flowers, stuffed toys, cheesy love letters which make me melt. 

4) Very loyal AND faithful. Sabi ng ibang guytalkers they can be loyal but not faithful. For my husband that's one and the same. He has never disappointed me (3 yrs together na kami and counting)

5) Very funny and witty. He always makes me laugh and everyone else around him. He won my family over this way and mukhang mas close na sila ngayon kesa sakin. Hehe.

6) Masipag sa gawaing bahay.

7) Ambitious and may direction sa buhay nya.

Maraming marami pang iba. Kulang na lang is for him to have the same spiritual beliefs as I do. Hindi kasi kami pareho ng religion, pero we respect each other's beliefs so no big deal here.

Any guy can be amazing too but maybe just enough to admire from a distance? Iba pa rin yung amazing kasi love na love namin and for me all other guys pale in comparison with my hubby. hehe.

Amazing guy, for me, is #1 God fearing, & not afraid to stand by & show his faith.  sa panahon kasi ngayon, most guys ay wala na pakialam sa spirituality nila & mapagusapan lang ng konti about God, deadma na & ang thinking nila "corny". 

#2 family-oriented, loving sa family. 
#3 smart, someone who knows a little bit about everything. lagi may sense ang mga sinasabi & hindi yun tipong may masabi lang. 
# 4 yun kayang sakyan ang ugali ko & mga trip ko 

[promil_kid]

I understood the meaning of being with a "God-fearing" man when I met mine. He considers how God sees his decisions. We never hide secrets from each other, he's 100% faithful and committed. He's really loving, but will correct me in a loving way when I'm wrong or when he needs to protect me.

He is hardworking, self made, and is compassionate to his people (even my family maids), excellent leader.

Has a really good family he's close to.

He has never broken his promises to me so far.

Attractive! =P

[summerchic]

Amazing doesn't have to be perfect. Close to it. Someone who loves me. Gets along well with my family and friends. Smart. Decent. Doesn't have to be that religious but prays. Kind. Someone who'll accept my flaws. Knows what he wants in life. Responsible. Decent. Funny and smart. Question is does this kind of guy exist? Hahaha.

TS, If I may ask, when you say "amazing", do mean amazing enough to love, or just enough to admire?

Wondered about this, too, after reading some of the posts. Are we talking about an amazing lover, amazing guytalker, amazing achiever...?

Well, a generic amazing guy for me would be someone who is really mabait, matalino and may passion in life. (Unfortunately mukhang mahirap makahanap ng may winning combination na ganito. LOL. Well, that's another topic.)

Women love…

1.) Men who are willing to makes fools of themselves to show how much they want to be with you.
 
 It reminds us just how brave and courageous you are, willing to take risks and possible/likely rejection.

2.) Men who are persistent.

  It shows us that you are not easily discouraged, that you are willing to work hard for what you want, that you are ambitious, and most importantly, that you really want us.

3.) Men who only have eyes for one woman.

I know guys usually face rejection and move on to the next girl with ease, and a lot of guys can like several girls simultaneously. I guess the least you can do is make us feel like we are it.  It shows us that you are loyal, and that you see something in us that is different from all the other girls.

4.) Men who keep their promises regardless of circumstances.

It shows us that you have integrity….which brings me to the next…

5.) Men who do the loving thing even when it hurts. nuff´said.

6.) Men who esteem themselves not because of worldly accomplishments but in the accomplishment of loving another deeply.

This shows us that loving others is your greatest priority. That kind of man is hard to find!

7.) Men who really listen.

I mean, you can tell guys really listened because they remembered our wishes. We want to look into your eyes, and see that all of you is really there, and there is no other place you would rather be. This shows us that we are up there on your mental priority list and that you value our thoughts.

8.) Men who would tell the truth, risk hurting our feelings, and fight with us rather than withdraw and brush issues under the rug to preserve peace.
 
It shows us that you care enough about saving the authenticity of the relationship to speak out. It shows that you are not indifferent. It shows that you are a man and not a doormat.

9.) Men who are realists.

They believe that it will take work and that it will be hard. Love is work; it isn’t leisure. They don’t buy into an easy, pain-free “happily ever after.” It shows us that you are in it with earthly expectations and that you are not just in love with the high of being in love. It shows us that you are willing to work at love and that hard times will not make you hardened.

10.) Men who want us till death do us part.

Forever isn’t scary; commitment isn’t scary. We want to believe that it is natural to want forever, to want commitment because it’s with us. A couple of years ago, I asked a guy I dated what was the number one quality he wanted in a girl. He replied, “forever.” (Sigh.) I guess “forever” is a universal wish of those who truly seek love.

kapag nirerespeto nya mga desisyon ko

[aquacharly]

An "amazing guy", as far as I am concerned, is someone with originality, confidence & the quiet ability to inspire/shame (haha) people he comes in contact with to be better persons.   

You are an "amazing guy",  Akthung. 

Now, in a romantic context -- an "amazing guy" is someone:
     kind, puts no pressure & makes  no judgment -- so you can just be yourself, warts & all
     Generously & consistently helps his GF/"prospect"/partner/wife advance her career/business --
         in short, todo bigay tulak moral support
     Who makes you feel confident
     Who, even if he breaks your heart, does not leave you diminished or feeling demeaned/exploited/bitter nor crushed.  (For not all endings are bad. Some just end coz the timing was not right; individual goals/priorities don't match up -- stuff like that). 

Does an "amazing guy" always get the girl?
No.
Why?
Perhaps,  the girl does not yet know what traits foster satisfactory long-term relationships.
       Some get distracted by a handsome face,  a fat wallet,  unrelenting pursuit, grand gestures, and sweet nothings. Hayzbuhay! Lols. 
Perhaps, some just do not have the ability to appreciate( or takes for granted) what's there until it is lost. 
Perhaps, the girl is really "lost" & still working on her self-definition, so just can't commit.
Perhaps, the girl has a fear of failure, so shies away.

amazing guy....my husband!

[aquacharly]

My hubby is amazing! now, but not an "Amazing Guy" -- he is a Reformed Guy since 2006 July.
(parang may continuing count like AA, lolz).

[imyourangel]

An amazing guy is someone who can keep up with a woman like me. 

YES! )) It takes a lot of patience to keep up with me, I think.

[crazy_krizsa]

Amazing guy for me is someone who can make me happy and never fail to brighten up my day.
