What do guys look for in a girlfriend?
What do you look for in a girlfriend or wife? And what would be the difference between a girl you just hook up with rather than date?

Easy, personality. I'd like to think I hook-up with/date women above a similar threshold of attractiveness but for me to consider them for a serious relationship they need to pass a far higher threshold of personality/lifestyle fit than a hookup.
None of us on this website get girls bro, our attraction to prestige and rankings far outweighs any sexual experience.
speak for yourself.
Is this supposed to be funny? Because you sound like a fucking nerd
I'm going to leave this at 69 silver bananas. anything else would be tragic.
bet
Keep an eye out for a non-ironic post in the next 3-5 days titled something along the lines of "Ranking BB's as sorority girls you fuck in college"
The ability to do mock interviews with me.
you are genius
Deal experience and technical capabilities
I wouldn't expect her to know how to do a full A/D model or anything in practice, but demonstrating that she prepared (vault guide, etc) earns points in my book.

Come girls should also ask “what you are looking for in BF/Husband” Don’t let the guys do all the judging
I just want someone who loves me.
It all comes down to exit opps
Fat ass
You mean round, perfectly shaped ass. Fat ass is disgusting
Cool story asshole, now why don't you shut the fuck up
Statistically uncorrelated returns on her career vs my career to hedge my risk of a layoff. I would buy futures instead of holding physical but I haven't found a reputable futures market yet.
Did consider the repo market or an SPV ? Can help with that cost of capital/balance sheet.
How romantic.
you probably get 0 girls

TLDR so you belong to the streetsss

I myself look for some nice bolt ons and a shallow personality! Really get your money’s worth!
Will give an actual serious answer 1. hot 2. smart 3. same values same values includes a lot of things but basically a girl that is not a thot and someone I would be proud to be public with. This last bit seems pretty hard to find nowadays and I know I will be judged for saying this.
nah you are speaking the truth my brother it’s easy to hook up w any girl but to have a committed relationship it’s hard to find a respectable girl
the only correct answer - in that exact order as well
you won't be judged.
to be judged, other people have to actually care what you have to say.
nobody gives a fuck about your useless opinions
therefore, you can't get judged
now shut the fuck up, okay nerd?
Good lord what is happening to this site
I'm back on this site after having been a pretty regular member from about 2010-2014, and let me just assure you that it has quite literally always been like this.
I'm not asking for a lot here, just a few essentials.
Whats up w/ monotheistic. What do you have against Hindus and Buddhists.
To be honest, it really doesn't have to be monotheistic as long as the person knows 'love'. I believe love is the answer and end all and be all.
got it. Does not want to exclude the hippy-chicks
Yeah, hippie chicks are my jam.
damn you like my funky MD who got divorced a while back and has orgies now. good for me, less midnight emails. godspeed
To serve others and treat each other with kindness and respect.
If I'm with a chick at a restaurant and she snaps at the waiter/waitress in a condescending manner, its a major turnoff for me. Some chicks can be brutally mean. I don't want any part of that.
this has literally nothing to do with religion
you want to date people who aren't assholes, like most other people
Actually, the only thing religion really teaches at the core is to be kind to others.
When Jesus was asked about the commandments to follow, he simply said 'just love one another'. Treat others as you want to be treated. So, basically understanding people's needs and acting with kindness.
But, the most staggering thing to be said in the New Testament is to love your enemies. Yes, we have to treat all people with kindness even if they are not kind to us. Being kind and practicing the works of mercy are the core of life.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Works_of_mercy
The works of mercy have been traditionally divided into two categories, each with seven elements:
"Corporal works of mercy" which concern the material and physical needs of others.
The works include:
To feed the hungry. To give water to the thirsty. To clothe the naked. To shelter the homeless. To visit the sick. To visit the imprisoned, or ransom the captive. To bury the dead.
"Spiritual works of mercy" which concern the spiritual needs of others.
The works include:
To instruct the ignorant. To counsel the doubtful. To admonish the sinners. To bear patiently those who wrong us. To forgive offenses. To comfort the afflicted. To pray for the living and the dead.
Yes, a major part of religion is teaching people to not be assholes. I get it. Religion is an unnecessary step. I am not religious and also not an asshole.
Well, I think you're on the right page.
I believe in people not being assholes over people claiming to be religious and being an asshole.
Cool I think we're largely in agreement then. Just didn't sit completely right with me when you explained your position of "must be monotheistic" with "must be a non-asshole." While I think there may be some correlation / causation there I don't think one necessarily follows the other.
I'm actually with Isaiah 53:5 on this. It's culturally way too different and I don't agree with many of the values in those religions.
I want someone who was raised with Christian/Jewish values and willing to discuss about the messianic issue (if we differ). Period. Not branching out.
Yes indeed, who doesn’t demand a monotheistic SO. But what if they’re version of monotheism conflicts with yours, oOoOoOoOo big trouble there
I welcome a theological debate from an SO if needed.
Monotheistic? What are you, a fucking retard? How about you go ride your bike on outta here, scallywag fuckface
So this is an i interesting question and if you are interested in knowing a girl’s perspective who has been through banking and made it to the buyside lets just say if you seem like you dont care about the job at all but have amazing work product, girls are about it - be sly, nice, and carefree. Real advice, it works
Excellent advice. I won't give you a Silver Banana, because you need to earn them yourself, but nevertheless, keep up the great work.
Great question, +1 SB. For me personally, I’m a pretty simple guy. I look for the basics in a potential long-term girlfriend:
1) great personality: charismatic, lively, ambitious, fun, sex freak. 2) intelligent: preferably received education from Harvard, though Yale wouldn’t necessarily be a deal breaker. 3) career: ideally would be a brain surgeon, a lawyer at Cravath swaine moore, an MD at GS, and a CTO at Google all at the same time. Again, if she’s not one of these, it’s not necessarily a deal breaker, but it could be what separates a gf from a hook up. 4) must take care of the kids so i can do my job (stream fortnite on twitch) and fulfill my role as the breadwinner of the family. 5) must be a Michelin star chef - this one is not up for debate. 6) must come from a billionaire family. 7) not too concerned about looks. I’m not like these other dickheads. I see her for what she is on the inside. Although she shouldn’t be below a 8.
Yeah, pretty simple if I’m being honest. Appreciate the question.
Had us in the first half, ngl.
why is sex freak under 'personality'?
edit. nvm read the entire comment. good shit
And what do you have to offer her? I am pretty sure a woman of that caliber would never even consider an “intern in IB-M&A.”
And you clearly don't understand western humor. You're FOB status is showing.
comedy gold! especially #7
Someone who doesn't bore me
The amount of girlfriend/wife posts on this site is out of control.
what do you expect? Every dude here has been 2 months in quarantine, likely stuck on zoom calls and WFH. I'm damn surprised WSO hasn't been devolved into Porn Hub.
Got a laugh out of that. Thanks EW
shut up asshole
huge tracts of land
Good placement on the Hot-Crazy Matrix and NOT A TRANNY*
*(no offense to any tranny's on WSO)
+SB same here
this is why god invented bumble.
this is why god invented the "log out" button, so shitheads like you could get the fuck off this site
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
Beta male status confirmed.
make sure she’s a model. hear me out boys. instead of 7 years, model this one out for 40 years. Make sure that top line is steady and increasing over time. you don’t want her expenses to outweigh what she brings in, otherwise you’ll have a negative time.
After that, add back all those non cash events. She nice? kind? what does she do for you? After a long days work, you want to make she she’s the last spread-sheet you see.
Will she provide you dividends in a few years that you can watch grow up?
If she nets positive, invest.
number 1 criteria - she loves me and wants to be with me. That has actually helped a lot. As I've become gradually more annoying, being with a girl who was really into me at the beginning and thought my quirks were positive features has helped weather storms of time and annoyance.
I met my wife at work, and she kept thinking my erratic behavior was adorable. 13 years later (10 married) I still make her laugh all the time and she really, really loves me. That's got to count for something in this world.
Is that your only criterium then?
This is prob the best answer I read so far.
of course it's not the only criteria. I had a number of must-haves, and a number of nice to have's. Just pointing out that the number one thing is to be with someone who wants to be with you. That REALLY wants to be with you. Someone once gave me an anecdote about a wife who saw her husband roll up his dirty socks and put them on the coffee table absentmindedly. Before they were married she thought "oh, that's adorable. He's like a little child. I can take care of him." And later in life when he did the same thing the wife thought "What an inconsiderate bastard to leave rolled up dirty socks on the damn coffee table." So much of marriage is a matter of perspective and tolerance, so when my GF was nice to me, and seemed to really like my antics, it made it easier to see that she might be able to put up with me for the long-term.
bananas for you, but I don't have any so this my banana
I am married and I chose her based on the ability to make pancakes!
You see all those silver bananas on your post?
No?
That's because it's an absolute shit post
Not interested in silver bananas. More interested in pancakes though.
These posts makes me crave these amazing banana pancakes that I had in Sumbawa, Indonesia - looking at the waves break having these pancakes and thick Indonesian coffee in the morning before a surf session.
crab chiggins popping off in the comments rn, damn. it's not a popular WSO post without a bit of gatekeeping
