And its ironic that you complain about peopel wanting to date you because you're pretty, and then you say you want to date a hot guy.
Its kinds odd that you don't want someone to want you because your pretty, because it seems that you want someone because they are pretty. What about the person as a whole?
First, I NEVER said this. What I said is that I'm not going to date a guy because he thinks I'm pretty. Obviously I won't date a guy who doesn't think I'm pretty (like he's going to date me anyway) but it takes more than a guy thinking I'm pretty for me to want to date him. That was my point. That was the whole point of that entry. Just because a guy thinks I'm really awesome does not mean it's going to get him into my pants.
I know what I find attractive, I know what kind of woman I'd ideally want to be with, but I'd rather let something happen organically than wait around for someone who meets some checklist of desireable traits.
I don't have a damn checklist. It's not like I keep tabs on our conversation and think, "okay, now I have to ask him this to make sure he has this specific trait." I know when he does things I like, and I know when he does things I don't like. These automagically change my opinion of the person, I don't make a conscious decision to like them or not. It just happens.
wow, with an attitude and checklist like that, you are most likely gonna die cold and alone!
Do I have a bad attitude about dating? I don't think it's too much to ask for everything I want in a person. Why settle?
I speak from direct experience when I say that there aren't many things which are worse than spending a portion of your life with someone who ends up being a totally incorrect choice.
Exactly. Why be with someone who isn't what you want? Frankly I would rather die cold and alone than live my life with someone who doesn't fulfill me. I'd be constantly irritated and wishing I had something better. If I'm alone, all I have to deal with is myself, and I like myself.
I guess I am saying that being hot is something entirely subjective to any person and situation.
Um, yes. One person's hot is another person's fugly. Is this news to anyone?
Fuck, if being hot was the only requiremnet to have a boyfriend and/or Girlfriend, going to bars and dance clubs would be a seriously surreal experience, wading through a sea of ugly, yet personable and loving people looking for someone who likes them for who they really are....on the inside.
Now that's something I'd like to see. That sounds like a lot of fun. I bet you'd meet a lot of rad people there. Let's do it.
A long monologue of your personal definition of attraction that will alienate 90% of people with you on their favourites list, followed by a question on your friends' personal experiences.
Like... I don't even care. Am I somehow required to pander to all members, making them feel good about themselves and telling them I think they're wonderful and attractive people? I had no idea I wasn't allowed to, you know, say what I look for in a man because I might *gasp* hurt someone's feelings. I'm not going to want to date everyone I meet. It's just the way things are. That doesn't mean I don't like you, I just don't want to date you. Is that so bad?
As for the second part of that quote, the question was for everyone who wants to read my journal. If I only wanted responses from my friends, I would have started a friends thread.
Onward to something mostly unrelated.
I get an email about once every two weeks from someone on this site that reads something like, "hey ur hot wanna chat sometime 
,". No, actually, I'd prefer not to chat, certainly not until said emailer and abuser of the language gets some grammar skills. I don't understand how any one could think that sending me an email similar to the above is going to make me want to talk to him.
Seriously! If you want to entice me to converse with you, you're going to have to be at least a little bit engaging, verbally. I do NOT want to chat with someone who can't (or won't) take the time to spell properly or write in complete sentences. It's called "chatting", you know, like "talking", and when you talk you don't sound like a tard who can barely spit out a sentence, do you? Obviously when people talk they use colloquialisms and such that wouldn't be used when writing a paper or something, but when I write the way I speak I still don't come off as being as unable to formulate thoughts as many of the people who try to get me to "chat" do. Please, I'm begging you: if you want an email back from me, don't write like a child. Thank you.
Well, I'm moving out of my apartment at the end of August. The owner of the building wants to keep my apartment vacant for "personal reasons" and I have to be out by September 8th. Fine. Whatever. I might move in with dunx for September, but I don't know yet. If I'm going to be moving and having to drive in a car without air conditioning, I'd rather do it at the end of September than at the end of August. Life is a little bit up in the air. I haven't heard back from the NSA and that makes me sad. Oh well. If anyone knows of any places I can apply that hire mathematicians who don't have a graduate degree, please let me know.
I'm going to be selling some of my stuff because I'm moving, some of it to make room and some of it to raise some more dough so I can afford to move, so if you're interested in owning some of my items, keep watch here and in the SG sales group. Want to own the sunglasses or undies that I wore in my Princess set? Now's your chance. How about the pink wig I wore in Bathtub? I might just sell that too. You want a purple and black dress that'll make you look like you play Vampire? I've got one of those. Anyway, watch this space for links.
Catch you guys later.
