Having been facing issues with not feeling attracted to perfectly fine people, I realized that I do have a type.
But it is not just a physical type. It is a psychological type tied in with a physical type.
Personally for me, it is the tall, geeky/intellectual kind.
Here’s my concern and question: Having a type is limiting. You cannot (better yet, *I *cannot) feel attracted no matter how much you try to other perfectly fine people. What does one DO in that situation?
Re: "your type"
Easy. You wait until YOUR type comes along.
Re: "your type"
^Or you find a blond ...
Having a type is fine.
Its about giving people a chance to show you that side.
Also, its good to keep the mind open to other types. You may not know it but there could very well be a better type.
If youre looking for a relationship, its about giving people a chance.
Re: "your type"
It is important to keep an open mind.
Lets say you were buying a car. The more particular you are about features, colors etc, the less options you have. And these few options may or may not be in your budget. Meanwhile, there are other buyers with fat wallets and/or no scruples who swoop in and get those cars. Soon you will either have to give up on some of your requirements or take a chance by shelling extra.
So for a match, if you are looking for pakistani, grew up in the west, religious,educated, tall, intellectual, rich or getting there, romantic, loyal, open-minded,liberal etc., you just narrowed down your field to a few hundred. And there are lot of girls ( here and in Pakistan ) vying for them. They won't last long.
The shorter that list, happier you will be.

With huge...spectacles. I like glasses.
Re: "your type"
btw, does anyone know if I marry someone from Pakistan, how long it usually takes for her to come to US?

Not unless you're easily pleased..
Nothing wrong with having a 'type' as long as you're realistic imo
Re: "your type"
wait for your type to come, when wait will have tired you out enough, you will automatically start finding other types attractive
Re: "your type"
Having type is not a limitation its just an identification. Its people who make limit out of identification.
Think of it as a Name. 'Type' is just like that. If your name is Yasmin, will u only marry Amin, Yamin or Zamin?

Don't get too hung up on types. Sometimes something clicks with someone who you never thought you'd like.
Re: "your type"
Sometimes you can wait years to find your type only to find out you are not his type..hmmmm, why is it that people always talk about what they want and not what the have to offer..
Re: “your type”
Make them brown, give them a light beard/scruffy look, clean hair and there you have it.
Really not into the hipster look. Like, come on, get real!

Good point. I also don't think it is entirely smart to wait forever. But I have no other solution.
What do I have to offer? Other than not being as tall as most guys and my utter inability to grow a beard, I think I have the same stuff to offer, in addition to nice and respectful etc.

You have the same stuff to offer as in you consider your self as possesing a high level of intellect and having an ability to express your thoughts and feelings in an intelligible manner, you are able to engage in provocative discussions about complex and abstract ideas. What is a psychological type, did you mean personality type. I am not sure what you mean by respectful, does it mean you respect people, laws society etc. or does it mean you consider yourself as a respectable person, but then respectable is such a subjective term, there are scores of people that respect Bollywood actresses, would you sit with your beau and discuss Voltaire, Chomsky, John Locke or the concepts of linear and non linear thinking or the concept of first cause.

Yes to all of it. Except, I respect Lollywood actresses more.
Why do you ask?
