In my own personal case, it's less about who I'm attracted to than it is about who I'm attracting- I seem to be a magnet for the same type of woman, which is rather disconcerting to say the least.

It's hard to see what you NEED when your blinded by what you WANT!!!frustrated



Interesting...I think I am generally attracted by some mis-guided "need" - you know, that "someone to complete" me stuff.

I think when you just choose because you WANT someone, it can be healthier and you stay in control of your emotions more. Maybe it's must semantics.

I don't know, seems like when people know you care, they start acting like fools, lol.


Well that goes for me, for sure! But it's more like the "I've got a crush" idiocy mode...I get tongue-tied and stupid like nobody's business. It's ridiculous...I'm old enough NOT to behave like I'm in Jr. High! Egads! :wink:


Omg, are we related, lol. I do the same thing. We have to start acting like we don't give a crap. For some reason, people respond to that better, lol.


act like a badazz..it works GREAT
On those who can't see through the act.

The other week, I saw a guy that caused that visceral attraction at first sight thing.

My second reaction was that if I was that attracted to him then he must be a total ass. Because everyone I've been that strongly attracted to has turned out to be awful.

If there is a secret to changing the type of people to whom we are attracted, I would sure love to know.

I've been outta the dating loop for so long now that I'm not sure what I'm attracted to anymore.. Hmm, now that's either a good thing or a very, very bad thing.

You can change your "type of person you are attracted to", but in order to change that you have to take a look at you and change you first. It has to do with recognizing what in you makes you appealing or appeal to a certain type of person. What characteristics traits do your portary yourself that may turn off a particular type you wish to appeal to?? So on and so forth.....Good luck to you.

For me it is, not looking for what i want. It's looking for what will make me happy. Alot of the time i feel we get caught up in what were use to so will stay with what were comfortable with. I started looking beyond on that and i'm thinking right now. It's easy to find someone for me on this site and i could get a date or two. But the thing is, am i willing to pay the price of, lets just say hooking up with some that i know is wrong for me. Or, do i wait and see whats really out there. I chose to wait. Yeah i did meet somone on here,and it didn't work out. Although, the thing i don't like is putting that trust out there, and at the same time if i don't. How will i ever knowohwell

This is inline with the idea that 'the most consistent factor in all my dysfunctional relationships is ME'
If I want to have a different kind of relationship with a woman, then I have to be a different person than I was in the dysfunctional relationships.
