I think we can only get involved with those we are around, and we are more likely to get involved with those we are most often around

its why MOST people arent dating a different race
and MOST height/age appropriate people arent dating 'little people'
and MOST fifty year olds arent dating teenagers,,,etc...

I think we also will match up by common interests and experiences, and I think the experience of someone without legs, for instance, would be different enough from my own to make me somewhat uncomfortable out the gate and to cause quite a big gap in how we both viewed the world or were able to come together to experience the world

not that it would be or should be an absolute chance killer, but its just not as much of a chance as with someone of a similar background or life experience,,,,


First off 50 year olds dating teenagers is illegal.

Secondly, I do date outside my ethnicity (we are all the same race - the human race) and I have dated a guy a full one foot and 2 inches taller than me. I think that view is extremely closed minded.

And how boring life must be if someone only dates someone similar to them. How much you are missing out out by not dating people different from yourself with different experiences, etc. How much you would not learn by doing that. If that was the case, I would still be eating Mc Donald's and such and never been to the Asian Market and experienced all those foods or more recently Persian food which is to die for, etc. I would not know about different religions. I mean who wants to date a clone of themselves.

She just said most... not all. Not even nearly.
I think you're taking too much from her post that wasn't actually there.
Her point was how people of the same groups often carry similar traits that are important for bonding, not that diversity is bad.
