I agree Ralfie, and I for one look at people's body language all the time, but.... I also look at the whole picture.
Also, some have an uncontrolable itch...
As far as a man's body language indicating his affection for a woman, there is some truth in it, but I don't think that you can generalize, as per this forum...
A guy suspects his wife of cheating on him, so he hires a Chinese detective. The cheapest one.... This is his report:........ Most honourable sir!! You leave house. I watch house. He come house. I watch. He and she leave house. I follow. He and she go hotel. I climb tree. I look window. He kiss she. She kiss he. He strip she. She strip he. He plays with she. She plays with he. I play with me. I fall from tree. I not see. No fee, CHENG LEE
I get that all the time about my height Kizzy, and I think from memory, you and I are about the same height? Some women have the decency to come out and say: "I have a problem with your height", while others have it written all over their face.... and I can read body language quite well...
Sooooo what can I do to change that? Absolutely nothing! I'm not gonna jump off a cliff just because some women have a problem with my height! At least you can get your 5 inch spikes out and momentarily increase your height. If I did anything like that, I would certainly give everyone the wrong impression, so I remain at 175cm tall, with my shoes on....
And always remember..... All good things DO come in small packages
Can I buy you a drink later at the bar? And we can both drown our sorrows together...
I just completed my Fine Arts Diploma, majoring in Sculpture and Ceramics. I did hundreds of drawings during the 4 years of that course and my eyes pick up every bit of detail, that most people, as you say, don't even notice, and I'm always quick to give a lady a complement when it's warranted, be it her hair, clothing or general appearance etc.
Thank you for the complement Ralfie! It's ironic really.... . Women with straight hair spend a small fortune getting their hair permed and women with curls spend so much time straightening their curls. From my perspective, curly hair has more body and makes a woman look much more elegant. What it comes down to though, is what makes you feel good and what your man likes? It's he that you have to impress; when he's around at least... lol
"Be who you are and say what you feel, because those that mind don't matter, and those that matter don't mind".
Even though I have always been honest and have laid my cards on the table, you are right Kizzy; people tend to pre-judge you before they get to know you well enough, and it really hurts. What really matters in this, is the fact that you stick by your beliefs and not lower your standards, just to please someone or get the proper response from them.
What makes this internet dating thing more difficult, hence the poor results that most people experience, is the fact that no matter how good you are at expressing yourself in writing, what is lacking is the tone and the way that certain things need to be said, and on that note, they can be taken the wrong way.
One thing that I am not happy about, is the fact that every woman that I have dated from these dating sites, did not look anything like the photo that she had on her profile, and to me that is being completely dishonest. Some of their photos were taken as far back as 10 years earlier. Why do people do that? Do they honestly believe that they can fool someone?
In answer to your question Kizzy, "should we be straight up with others online, or should we wait?" I honestly feel that we should not volunteer any vital information unless asked, and if we feel that the answer to a particular question, can only be given once time had a chance to acquaint us with this person, then so be it.
Ralf, you mention that we need to market ourselves correctly, in order to sell ourselves, and sure, there is a certain amount of truth in that, but does it really pay for the "Mutton to be done up as a Lamb? In my experience, the women that I made contact with, although they got a positive response to their profile, due to their marketing strategy, they didn't portray themselves for who they really are, and their dishonesty didn't get a desirable end result for them.
I'm soooo over this internet dating thing as well.....
I don't personally know of anyone affected, but in saying that, it doesn't make it any easier, knowing the devastation that these people experienced. I could actually feel their pain during the worst of it, and at times, I just had to walk away from the TV. The media were like sharks, out to get, yet another story, and I found their reporting too graphic at times.
Anyhow, I would just like to say that this Thread is very thoughtful of you RQ. Thank you!
I just re-read your profile and as previously suggested it's a good ides to show exactly where you are located....
Sending you a kiss as your profile suggests, is not an option on CS so I tried tried sending you a flower but I was blocked out because of my height and location....
....so here is the kiss you requested darlin......
I quite like your profile and you sound like my kimd of lady. The view from your kitchen is absolutely heavenly and regarding your hair, I simply adore women with their hair tied back, out of their face. Your profile portrays who you are and how you like to present your self, so I wouldn't change anything. To the right man, it looks perfect....
Well Captn, you have the opportunity here to up-lift the standard of these forums by posting some interesting topics. Otherwise..... Bon Voyaaaage! ! !
