Do you often want someone you can't have but pass on people that are actually interested?If so why do you think you do this?

i have that case for one of my exes, but i came to the conclusion of want but cant have, so i seek out elsewhere. i wouldnt shoot down potential candidates, but i have yet to have anyone interested in me.

waiting for the right one is quite time consumming you will meet someone I'm sure of that

i hear you tina, but sometimes the hunt can be disheartening.

keep making friends you never know when a friend can turn into more

agreed

This is the nature of the beast.

The majority of people interested in me are country guys, the mullet wearing, NASCAR watching, dip spitting, video gaming, tractor pull touring country boys. They aren't my type. I also get a lot of mails from people, well, to be frank, that just aren't challenging for me. They don't understand the words I use, I have to explain everything, and I can barely read their mails or carry on a conversation. I need a man who can challenge me. Like Sexy Lexy...

For the most part "No"

you are a true renn women lilith

i've found that i'm rarely attracted to those that are openly attracted to me.

i say this in this way because i believe that there have been times that i've been attracted to women who felt the same but did not reveal so. it's only through hindsight and retrospection that i come to understand that they may have been interested. unfortunately, by then it's usually too late.

i can't say why, in general, i haven't been attracted to those who are interested other than to say that for most i'm not physically attracted to them. for me, physical attraction is needed for physical intimacy.

Hahaha, I tried SO hard to be tactful in my answer there!

It has happened to me a couple times

I personally thought it was a superb answer.

Even though I left out 'can of beer or jar of moonshine swillin' in my response?

I think that's implied....

not good enough for the people we're interested in, too good for the people that are interested

And confederate flag waving (from the fruck)......



Gotta run, to work at home ya know....c'est la vie. Makes up for all that downtime I had for about two weeks...

it takes me awhile to know that I want someone friends first has become a strict rule with me

Just wanted to echo Lilith's sentiments here....

The majority of the people who contact me here, claiming to be "interested," clearly have not read my profile. Granted, it's very long, and there may be some repetitive points made, but it IS possibly the only profile in the world where the writer doesn't claim to be "laid back and easy going" or include a picture of a cat. I do have pics of llamas and hamsters, but as far as I know, those are not cats.

The overall impression I get of the writers' aptitudes, in many of the e-mails I receive, might most accurately be described as slightly below kindergarten level. If there were an internet version of the big clunky crayons that little kids use before they have enough coordination to use real crayons, I would expect to see many of my e-mails written in something not entirely unlike the former.

For some reason, the e-mails I get from people who simply want to discuss books or moderation issues or things in general are always much more comprehensible and well-written than those from the people claiming to be "interested."

And I'm just not going to be "interested" in someone whose e-mails can't be deciphered without some sort of reverse brain surgery or extensive drug use.

That's not the kind of "challenge" I'm looking for.

Don't claim to be "interested" if you don't know anything about me. I'm not that difficult to understand. All it takes is a little bit of reading, and a willingness to step outside the goat.

I agree I don't think someone can be truely interested without getting to know me first when i get an email like that I just assume they are interested in what they see
