Hey what’s your type? What type of guy do you normally go for? Am I your type? 

On some level we feel that asking these types of questions will yield some accurate insights into a woman’s dating preferences and the characteristics that she finds attractive in a man, that ultimately she finds admirable enough to express a desire for. 

Perhaps more sneakily, we feel that by asking this question we can move towards her ideal type of guy by meeting her strict criteria!
