Still looking.....

My searching tends to lower my spirits if things don't go the way I want.

Looking is better. No expectations, just curious observations.

I try an keep expectations somewhat low-ish, so as to minimize disappointment.
On the other hand, one cannot remain completely idle, if one wants something to "happen".

Very true. I am finally discovering this in my creative life. I never put myself out there and I am where I was 20 years ago. It is time to put myself out there and damn the consequences!

go girl!
 
Obviously, there are many places to look/search, in fact every place we go.

One must stay vigilant.:D
 
I can't imagine meeting a person who has never lied. Jeez, just the lies I told my parents. :rolleyes:

precisely.

Naturally, some of us are better at it (which is not a "good" thing), some do it habitually (also not a "good" thing), some feel guilty, some feel no remorse... politicians tend to be more frequent liars.

I am not looking for a politician.
(or for folk who feel the need to express their political biases in every venue possible)

Nor am I. Three professions I said I would not date; policeman, fireman, politician. The first two I would be a nervous wreck, worried all the time. The last I wouldn't want. Under a microscope all the time. My mother said not to marry a musician, my father was one, but she was an introvert and it wasn't a good mix. :rolleyes:
 
Don't marry a visual artist.

They kooky.

Actually, too many "milk that myth".:rolleyes:
 
though many creative folk are a bit "eccentric" — crazy ≠ creative
 
Love reading all of this.
Here's what I am looking for ...

Liz

I've chased her for over a decade, even moved across the country to go where I think she is. We had that one summer and then we went our own ways. I am chased by the 'what ifs' all why I look for Liz.

Sadly, sometimes we have to "give up the ghost" and move on.
 
Have you tried the Personals?...

Briefly tried here (LIT).

Like many venues, it didn't feel right.

The basic premise of the Playground or the visual artists' corner seem to be appropriate for me, but the playground tends to be largely ABC games with no winner, no end, minimal social interaction. The corner has little audience and very little intelligent conversation.

Still looking....
