Lit/Potential Relationships

[Guest]

Do you think lit is an appropriate/effective way to meet that future significant other or bf/gf?

Would lit be different than other forms of online mate-meeting like online personals etc.?




My answers would be, hmm I would highly doubt it because this is like a erotic site, so I mean alot has been revealed on what sexual preferences ppl have, not really any surprises to uncover.
Lit seems different because of the interaction on these boards, you get to know the person's "supposed" character (im not saying that everyone is faking their rl personality, but might not all be true on here). Just my 2 cents.

There are quite a few people who have interacted here, met in r/l and moved in together and become a lit couple.

SO youre saying theres no chance for us????

hehe, If it only were that easy Em maybe if there was not so much red tape involved

There's just as much of a chance of meeting and becoming involved with someone here as anywhere else.

Hmmmm..... How is this any different than in "real life"? People put up fronts and tell you what they want you to know about them in face to face meetings too.

If you read people's posts long enough you can figure out the "real" them from the front. On Lit I can go back and look at a member's posts from before I ever signed up and see how they've interacted all along. If I meet someone on the street I don't have that ability.

I would guess that "on-line" and "real life" each have their advantages and disadvantages.

Lit presents the exact same opportunity to meet your forever bud-bud as any other place you go to online or offline. You meet new people everywhere, some real, some fake. You can't tell until it's too late. That happens in the real world, too. You're not inured from liars and people pretending they're not married or rapists just because you meet them in the grocery store or at church and not on a porno based 'Net board. Confidence tricksters and married players and rapists weren't invented with the 'Net. In some ways the 'Net makes it easier. In others, it doesn't.

AND...

I think you get out of it what you put in (as in many other things).

My thoughts exactly.

Howdy, everyone. I know I am new and somewhat naive (sp?), but I would argue that you can meet someone here, especially more compatable for the long term--providing they are displaying their true personalities. Too often, the physical appearance of each other detracts from the mental and emotional linking that is necessary to long term success. As for nothing left to uncover...I have to adhere to the belief that there is more than sex in a long term relationship (not that I'm against more sex ). And once the "sexual" barriers have been relaxed, then there is more freedom to explore each other without societal "roles". After all, sex is one of the most taboo topics in our society. For just about anything else, there is a predefined method to our responses and actions. Well, so much for the newbies two cents.

Is this the whiny, or realistic Lo talking?

Just when you think you have a good relation with someone, you find out it was all a crock. (sometimes)

Real friends aren't here for you when it's convienent for them, they are here for you when you need them. Such is the same at Lit, as in real life.

 

[intrigued]

I would really like to know why you think it isn't possible? I mean aside from the one comment you made regarding personas...since not everyone adopts a persona, especially those seriously looking to meet someone.

You can count me as another affirmative reply.

 

[Silverluna]

anything is possible. just maybe not the best thing...

I don't post at Literotica to find love or even sex, but anything is possible.

Luna owes me a Coke for that.

Everyone’s point of view comes from a different point on the compass.

I have a great deal of faith in human nature. I tend to accept a person
for what they say. It is much easier than second-guessing everyone’s
motives, IMO.

This is just another place to meet new people. In some ways, it is
much more interesting since the physical side of things is removed
from the equation.

True Ruby but most people don't go to work looking for love...or school...or anywhere for that matter. And those few places that people seem to ONLY be looking to 'hook up' seem to be relatively unsuccessful; don't they?

I think just like anything else...it's another place to meet people...where it goes from there is up to the parties involved...

One little caveat to that I'd like to add though is it CAN be more difficult online due to the lack of 'real' contact...so if that's what two people are interested in finding I think meeting face to face sooner rather than later is advisable.

<shrug>

Here's to hoping my Lit situation works out...and anyone else's that should happen to occur.

I'm flattered, but I'm not Ruby.
