my friend and I just talked about this over the weekend - the difference between the "type" you look for, and the "type" you actually date (or, in some cases, end up with).
EG: I am supermechaultimo attracted to tall guys (6'5"ish) with black/dark hair and green/blue/grey eyes, good skin (I don't care what color as long as it is clean), and a menacing bad-boy danger about them.
my bf, on the other hand, is about 5'10" with blonde hair and green eyes, riddled with scars (okay, scars are way sexy), and projects a very happy-go-lucky demeanor. Granted, he'd disembowel you with a spork and laugh the whole time if he thought you deserved it, but he doesn't PROJECT that.
So yeah. What you want vs. what you get/what actually makes you happy...
