Giggle Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 You may get more initial attraction but it isn't going to be what keeps a girl. Go for it, I bet you feel more confident about yourself and that right there will help. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
smackie9 Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Go for it.....yes you will attract more and increase your odds....but it sounds to me you need to work on other things. 5 Link to post Share on other sites
katiegrl Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Unless you meet at gym or beach, or walk about town with your shirt off, or post bare-chested photos of yourself on internet dating sites (ugh, please DON'T do that)......not sure how it will help with initial attraction.... Later once she sees you bare-chested, she may find her initial attraction increase, but when two people first meet or encounter each other for first time, it is usually with clothes (shirt) on. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
ExpatInItaly Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 It is nice to look at and will initially attract some women. But it's not that important. I've dated a few guys who had great bodies but were otherwise not good matches for me. A six-pack doesn't keep a woman around in the end. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
rocketman122 Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 me being a bodybuilder gets them to look at my profile and gets their attention, but talking to them on the phone to ask for the date is whats important. so the physical is there to lure them in, but who you are will hold them. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
UntitledNotepad Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Would a six pack help me in anyway to impress a woman in having a relationship with me? Of course! Getting a six pack isn't terribly difficult either. You first have to burn abdominal fat by eating right and doing cardio, then doing 500 situps / day. Do 5 sets of 10 situps 10 times. (i.e. in the morning, so 10 situps ten times, with 20 second break in between each, then do that 4 more times througjh the day) Link to post Share on other sites
katiegrl Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Not all women are into bodybuilders, or even men with perfect six packs. Personally, I like a nice medium -- nice physique but not *too* perfect. I used to work around *perfect" looking male models, and they did nothing for me either. Even though quite a few of them hit on me. Too perfect indicates to me an obsession with his body and looks, which is a turn off to me personally. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
ScienceGal Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Depends what kind of beer it is But seriously... for me, no. I am an active person, so want to be with someone who wants to get out and do things (e.g. hike, go running). Six pack definitely not required. Link to post Share on other sites

Toodaloo Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 maybe youre a bit younger so you dont appreciate it as much. im 44 and youll soon realize men after 40 start looking like shet and letting themselves go. Beg to differ on this one. Most of the men I know are more into their looks than I am and most of them are well over 40... Hell I go to them for fashion advice! Link to post Share on other sites

Well...that's because YOU happen to be very cool too... I read your post about why men lose interest on OLD, and it was super insightful...I was impressed....and if I were single, I would probably want to date you too... as long as you weren't too *needy and clingy* that is! :bunny: Edit: That last part was a joke referring to other thread discussing needy and clingy. lol Link to post Share on other sites

TaraMaiden2 Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Well, I can tell you, it wouldn't impress me, not one bit. I prefer an intellectual to anyone focused on their physique. If you think that's a way to attract the ladies long-term, think again. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Maleficent Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 It might end up giving you more opportunities but be careful about the women who are all about the superficial. Go for it - at the very least it will make you feel awesome about yourself. Personally I'm an arms/shoulders girl. Edit: if your attitude sucks, the abs won't help you much. 3 Link to post Share on other sites
Smthn_Like_Olivia Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Would a six pack help me in anyway to impress a woman in having a relationship with me? Depends on what kind of woman you're hoping to impress. Fitness is always a good thing, but it's surely not going to guarantee a good relationship. I find intellectual men irresistible. Men that like to read books and are passionate about something? Drool. Guys that spend 6 days a week in the gym and brag about how much they can lift? Eh...pass. Link to post Share on other sites
CarrieT Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Would a six pack help me in anyway to impress a woman in having a relationship with me? Nope. It might get them to LOOK at you (if you want someone shallow), but a relationship is built upon from whatever is within. Link to post Share on other sites
sandylee1 Posted September 5, 2015 Share Posted September 5, 2015 Would a six pack help me in anyway to impress a woman in having a relationship with me? Maybe...if she was only interested in your body and sex . Also depends on the type of woman you want to attract and the sort of relationship you want. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

SweetLikeCinnamon Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 It depends on the woman. I personally find six packs physically unattractive, so it would put me off if anything. Though obviously there are loads who like them Link to post Share on other sites
Lois_Griffin Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Well darlin', it probably won't if you have the face of a gargoyle. Link to post Share on other sites
Lady2163 Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 As far as a changeable physical trait that catches my attention first, six packs are all right, but it is teeth that I look at first. That is a different kind of "work". That is money work. But if a guy has crooked, yellow or missing teeth, it is a huge turn off for me. If he was raised middle class, has worked middle class or higher paying jobs, it can be an indicator of poor hygiene. One of our local fitness center owners probably thinks he has an ideal body and follows the best diet. He probably has a six pack. However, he is way too skinny and has horrible teeth. In the summertime, he saves his head. I've seen video of concentratin camp prisoners who look better than he does. Link to post Share on other sites
Jonp219 Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 I think it will help. Despite what women say, it will help lure them in. They're not going to know your personality unless they're attracted enough to get to know you first. Link to post Share on other sites
katiegrl Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 (edited) I think it will help. ****Despite what women say, it will help lure them in. ***** They're not going to know your personality unless they're attracted enough to get to know you first. Quote in asterisk, lol simply not true ...no matter what YOU say... Also, how pray tell are women supposed to know a guy has a six pack ....unless they meet at beach or gym? Or, god forbid, he has shirtless pics posted on line or he sends her a shirtless pic, which is a major turn off in and of itself! Yuck. She won't know until after she is ALREADY lured in by other qualities ....so this question is moot anyway. Edited September 6, 2015 by katiegrl Link to post Share on other sites
