Apparently, every man falls for this type of woman.
Any woman who wants to catch a truly charming guy better have a focus. Because there is supposedly one type of woman that every man has a weakness for.
And that is: the businesswoman. Well, especially the woman who takes her career very seriously. Not the party girl, the people pleaser, or the flake who hops from one part-time job to the next. Not the eternal student. Not the eternal party animal or the pro at flirting. No, it’s precisely the woman who has a goal in mind and knows what she wants with her life, she is loved among men. Certainly, 44% of men choose a woman who takes her working life seriously. Certainly, 87% of men also find it important that their partner to be has a bit of brains . Especially knowing what you want and working hard for it seems to do well in the world of singles.
Conversely, this also applies: if you meet a man who doesn’t know what he wants with his life and his work, then that is not necessarily attractive. Because: if you are confident in your job, you are also confident in other areas of your life. If you know exactly what you are doing with your Monday to Friday from nine to five, then you also stand strong outside of office hours. We think we can rely better on someone if that person is confident and knows what he or she wants to achieve in life. Certainly, 86% of people choose for a confident person – not least because better sex is expected from it.
We also see a rosy future faster with someone who works hard and does so with pleasure every day. Not a grump, but someone who is whistling in the shower and looking forward to the workweek. Because, as we state: being happy at work means being happy in private. Having everything in order at work means having everything in order at home. Knowing what you want with your career is knowing what you want with buying houses, marry and children.
Look, we have something to work with here. So are you single and looking? Get to work. Happy Monday, in advance. And don’t forget to whistle in the shower.
