She prefers the guys who are more aggressive, more sassy, and more exciting, even though sometimes they do turn out to be jerks. I was very strongly reminded of Andy's women-can-be-such-a-pain-in-the-ass-to-try-and-date rants. :-) She also talked about how she can't imagine having a relationship with a guy in which no fighting is involved, and she wouldn't want a relationship like that anyway. Not that she really thinks the fighting is *good*, but she said she needs to able to express herself no-holds-barred and she wants the guy to be the same way--so naturally, that'll lead to fights sometimes. And I explained to her more my style of dating and the kind of bf's I've had, which were pretty much the opposite. Very calm relationships--with tension sometimes of course--but no fights, both of us being tactful with each other. So we discussed the pros and cons of each kind of relationship a bit. It was pretty interesting. I can tell you more about it later if you like.
