Different personality traits of men by Dr. Spurr

Like books, men fall into various categories, from the shy guy to the joker. Take a look at these personality profiles, and next time you are out and about, see if you can spot them
The shy guy The shy guy is a man who is riddled with insecurities and that's why you need to give him clear signals that you're interested and often initiate the first couple of dates and phone calls. As with the often insecure female outlook, the shy guy sometimes doubts that he's interesting enough, good looking enough, or worthy enough of your attention. As long as he starts to come out of himself and gain in confidence, he's a good long-term bet.

The confident man If only they could all be a 'confident man' - a guy with enough self belief that he'll date in a fairly straightforward way. A man with natural confidence won't play games with you, won't try and undermine you, and is generally looking for a positive experience when dating. But don't take the positive vibe he gives out as a guarantee that he's looking for a relationship or looking for one with you. And a confident man may still ultimately not be able to face being straight with you if he doesn't want to see you any longer. Don't be surprised if he uses the 'you're too good for me' way of finishing. This means he is actually not that bowled over by you.
The arrogant bloke Often full of charisma, the arrogant type can be great fun and a challenge, and most women love a challenge at some point in their life! Unfortunately, the flipside to this is they often have a specific 'checklist' of female qualities they're attracted to and they may well play games. By their very nature they can also be quite undermining to be around. Unless he feels he's met his 'Waterloo' in you, you may get your fingers burnt with this sort of man.

The joker Often the centre of attention with their party pieces or unique brand of humour, the joker is usually quite insecure. We all know the type; they can be the life and soul of a party and do crazy things to be the centre of attention. But the other side to their personality is often quite pessimistic and negative. Many women are attracted to the multi-layered personality a joker has. However, they can be quite 'high maintenance' to go out with - expecting you to laugh at their antics and then scrape them off the floor when they've had too much to drink and want to cry into their beer. Handle with care!
