Survey on Ideal Girlfriend Criteria: 57% of Men Prioritize 'Personality & Values,' While Only 14% Focus on Appearance

Ibec Co., Ltd. (HQ: Fukuoka City), operator of the matching app 'Happy Mail' with over 35 million cumulative members, conducted a survey among 100 adult men regarding their 'Ideal Girlfriend.' The survey focused on four categories: essential elements, ideal personality, ideal appearance, and unforgivable behaviors.

1. Essential Elements in an Ideal Girlfriend 'Compatibility in personality and values' ranked first at 57.00%. This was followed by 'Appearance/Facial preference' at 14.00% and 'Common hobbies' at 11.00%. Results show that men prioritize long-term inner compatibility over physical looks.

2. Ideal Personality The top choice was 'Calm and a good listener' (28 people), followed by 'Always bright and positive' (26 people). Men tend to seek daily emotional security and stable communication rather than excitement.

3. Ideal Appearance and Vibe 'Cute and charming' dominated the results at 56.00%. 'Neat and elegant' came in second (16 people). The findings indicate a strong preference for approachability over specific fashion styles or uniqueness.

4. Unforgivable Behaviors 'Lying' was the most cited behavior at 55 people, followed by 'Wasteful spending' at 53. 'Bad attitude toward staff' and 'Uncleanliness' also ranked high (48 people each). This emphasizes that trustworthiness and character are paramount.

In conclusion, the ideal image men seek in a girlfriend has converged toward 'reliable relationships' and 'trustworthy character' rather than mere physical attraction.
