4. The Alpha Female
Her strengths: She graduated from college in 3 years and went right to law school without taking a vacation. She’s hard to keep up with. Ironically, it’s not the alpha dog who should try dating her. “A scientist, artist, or teacher will do well with this woman,” says April Masini, author of Date Out of Your League. “If you’re not interested in power plays, she won’t fight you.”
Her weaknesses: She has a lot in common with alpha males, but these relationships are too intense. “They can’t make time for each other,” Fisher says. Coburn cautions that pushover types are often attracted to such women, and some alpha females—the sadistic ones—are attracted right back. “Obviously, if this is your dynamic, it isn’t good.”
Her bedroom persona: She’s efficient and skilled, but she can be more than sufficiently animal if you help her let her guard down.
