Ricky Martin likes "smart, witty" men.
The openly gay singer - who has two-year-old twin sons, Matteo and
Valentino - is attracted to guys who have self-confidence without being
arrogant and are open to new things.
He said: "I love witty. I love mental strength. Just being secure.
"With all the stuff I come with, you have to be someone who is sure of himself. That turns me on.
"Somebody who is very sure of themselves without being arrogant -
smart, witty, has a career. Somebody who is very open-minded about
things. That's what I love. Adventurous is the word."
Since he became a father, Ricky insists he is more wary about romance
than he used to be because he has to think about the impact any
relationship would have on his kids.
He added to Attitude magazine: "I used to fall in love quickly. When
you are young you are open to taking risks and not afraid of anything.
"Now my priorities are different. I have children and they are the most
important thing in my life. OK, I'm in a relationship and I know how
lucky I am."
