Since being here and participating in the forums have your views/perspectives changed of other members and if so to what degree?

Are you pretty good at "reading" a person from your interactions or have you found yourself totally out in left field at some points?

Do you find yourself liking someone more? Grow to tolerate them or just plain old like them from the get go?

My curious mind is wondering! hmmm

There is a general impression of diversity but also of same things happening everywhere. It is interesting and build up knowledge I think. Oh God! I am too vague again, I think.

I'll follow up my original post.

I liked one guy - a lot - and found out he was married and had another girlfriend.

Then another guy I liked I found out can really have a problem with anger.

I've dodged 2 bullets just since I've been here. help

Yup ... mine too ..... but its mostly because of mixed messages ......... just need some clarification at times and I'm getting better at asking people flat out where they are coming from and what their intentions are if I'm feeling confused.

I have once again confirmed my guess that deeming someone attractive based on their 'soulful' eyes, 'warm' smile, 'masculine' exterior etc does not, even remotely, necessarily mean compatibility. And vice versa.

Just remember, people lie. The first guy that I mentioned, lied to me so much to keep his secrets. And I really hated that. And though I've forgiven him, he seems to be having a hard time forgiving himself, and I really do hate that.

Sorry to hear that - but I think its better to find it out earlier than later. When the heart gets ahead of the brain - then its more painful to let go sometimes when you still like that person despite the differences.

I just think that people need to be more considerate of another person's feelings and careful in the words/thoughts that they express ..... because sometimes they give an misrepresentation of themselves and their intentions.

Oh no, I didn't mean anyone in particular - I have never "fallen in love" with anyone on here, my observations just come from reading the members' posts, checking their profiles, chatting with them in private etc. I may initially think they are what I am looking for (based on their features), but it soon turns out we're not good for each other. I just wanted to stress that, and that personally I have no problem letting go of a really attractive guy if I feel there is no future for us, and on the contrary, I try to give a chance to a chat with someone who does not initially make my heart jump with excitement.

So far, obviously, it hasn't worked either way. rolling on the floor laughing

My views alter about everyone the more I get to know them.. men and women here..

One thing that I have mentioned before than often makes me laugh.. are that the two people I really didn't particularly like when I was first here.. have become two of my favourite people. laugh
