Wow! I read some of these profiles and they are almost a psycho-analysis of the life who wrote them. Come on guys (not all of you), do you really expect to find someone off the bat with every high quality? No one is going to be absolutely perfect. I'm actually referring to just a couple I've read, but do share what common ground you would be willing to compromise.

Come on Craxy lighten up,remember personal choice?
Sure,we all think we know what we want ,but to me the reality is that until it hits you ,you really can"t explain all that clearly what it is you really are looking for,I believe whats written is just guidelines,to some of the qualities you would like your "mate" to have.
MY profile says that I;ll take a friendly "hello" as a start,and that I'm open to possibilities,aren't we all.
The Forum is a perfect example,look how many of us have made a connection,how diffrent our worlds are and yet we all get along and have a respect for one another,I think it just might have changed a few of our minds on who we are and what we are looking for.Always remembering that it starts with the person we are within.
Rember you get what you need ,not what you want.One can never have too many "good" people in there space.
Regarless what your "fishing for",hope you find it.

you spoke of compromise,well since no 2 of us are alike then it pays to reason that if a relationship is going to begin much less survive then compromise is the name of the game

I think it is safe to say that everyone has a certain amount of expectation in their mate, and while I agree with the point you are trying to make, you must also stop to think about the person who is creating their profile, it could be their first time and are afraid so they select the high end thinking it will keep away the creeps, whatever their reasons for deciding to use those responses in their profile is their choice and you don't have to reply to the ones you consider "psycho-analysis" that is also your choice. I think each person is capable of making many compromises when it is for someone they love. I know I do.

well, good point, but this post wasn't for my benefit or advice, I just noticed those things on a few profiles, wanted to get everyones take on it. I'm not complaing, don't get me wrong. This forum has allowed me to gain insight on the real people here, so when I see yalls (you alls) profile, I can kinda tell the fluctuation in possible compromise. I just wondered why some go, what seems to be a little overboard (my opinion) on their expectations. The psycho analysis thing is just bringing out the point that you can read and almost tell if someone has been hurt in one way or another in the past. Thats not a bad thing. this topic was just an observation which I think is worth gaining different perspectives on.

there's more than physical. I think if we expect anything we should expect that they treat us with respect.

Respect is right! But I also agree with that "have to have their hair...I mean teeth" thingy.
