i think the net is a great place to meet people..its
based on mutual interest..humor..personality..not looks..as it should be...looks will go..better hope you like the person you wake up next to in 20 years..and the words a person speaks on here can touch us in ways looks never can..
Nothing beats "chemistry"... I just can't explain it any other way than that, you know?
The last guy I seriously dated... the instant he approached me, no wait, actually BEFORE that even, my heart skipped a beat, I gulped and I even well.. .let's just say... I was turned on when he started talking to me.
He is SUCH an incredibly sexy man and he became friends and then other stuff happened eventually and now, we are still friends.
Just b/c we are not "together" anymore doesn't mean there isn't chemistry though... it just means that we keep it in check now and express it through a deep and meaningful friendship instead.
Meeting on the net is much tougher, but can be just as successful... it just all depends.
I think perhaps I am just EXTREMELY picky, and I can't help it, that's just how I am but personally, I can adore a man's words, his picture, his SCREENAME even! But then, when we meet in person, something has to click. I mean, I don't have to have that "throw him on the floor, strip him and ravage him" feeling but I have to feel "something."
Depends, did I meet them on line or RL... NOw on line- I don't know I just get a gut feeling about the way people write. I can some how sence when some one needs to talk or if they are just board and looking for some one that can tell them what to do.. I have also been known to be able to tell some people about a major event that has changed their life in some way just by reading their words and the conversation usually isn't anything close to what I come up with..
With me it is intrigue. Sometimes it comes from a smile, a flip of the hair, the way she holds herself or walks, puts on lipstick, uses her eyes, says a phrase or the way she chugs a beer. Something about it shows mystery and intelligence. Doesn' thappen all of the time but when it does it catches my attention.
On-line it is the same type of thing but comes from someone's writing and a gut feeling.
It is not the flirt that counts as much as what's behind the flirt. Easy sex with no brains, bleh. The allure of sex with brains, that turns men's heads.
IRL attraction for me is still in the mind... just like online attraction is.... if someone is not there upstairs... or mean or boring... I dont care how hot they are, does nothing for me...
but if I connect with someone's mind.... mmmhmmm yes.
