noredneckhere Sevierville, TN age: 47	OK, let's take a look here, shall we ? Quote from lyfedep22: I'm sure you have all heard (and some, probably said) the phrase before: "I'm sorry, you're just not my type" or "He's not my type". What does this say? 1. It says that you are judging someone by their looks. This is plain and simple...it's just like saying "you can't judge a book by it's cover". In other words, if there were more people out there that would give someone a chance instead of just looking at them and say "Oh, he's not my type". It's like saying "that book's title has the word "sex" in it, so I'm not going to read it." You might have missed out on a really good read. First off, you betcha we judge by looks. And if you weren't guilty as well, you wouldn't be here, after all, I'm sure there are plenty of homeless guys who'd luv ya forever. So, hey, follow yer own advice, go give some dirty 'ol homeless guy a chance. 2. If you have met the person...in person...and said they are not your type after just the first date, that puts you guilty of all the above, with an additional charge of judging by a first impression. If you are an extremely picky person that always strives for the perfect 10, you are less likely to find that special person. So, I know I'm not physically attracted to someone. No way, no how. Why in Gods name would I go out on a romantically intentioned date ? Why wouldn't you judge by 1st impression ? I mean, come on, a guy walks into your place of work and yells "All women are sluts!" And you in yer cubicle jump up and declare "I think you're really not a woman-hater" Yea right. All I'm saying is that everyone in this world deserves a chance, and if you don't give that chance, you could miss out on meeting great people. I was always told that people that think highly of themselves turn out like real pricks/b*tches in the end, and those that are willing to lower their standards a little bit and give that chance are more likely to treat you good. All you're really saying is "I can't get a date with the guys I think I deserve" therefore I wanna make a law that says "If I pick you, you have to date me, even if you're physically repulsed by me" Kinda like people w/o money want to tax people that do well. So now I ask: What do you think? As everyone is entitled to a chance, everyone is also entitled to an opinion. "Entitled to a chance" Um ..no. No one is entitled to a chance. You're only "entitled" to put your profile out there. You are NOT entitled to any response, if no one wants to respond. But you're right about 1 thing. Everybody IS entitled to their opinion. Have a nice day.

Exactly, it is in the eye of the beholder, not the 'beholdee'. Your argument is for the beholdee. And very true, I'm never satisfied. Are you ? 'Cuz ya know the old addage about "Once the apple is ripe, all it can do is rot" Now, if you're trying to make the argument that there's no girl I'd be satisfied with, based on looks, well, that's your opinion, which is something you are entitled to. If you're meaning is I'm not satisfied with a relationship, well, if it gets to the point where it's perfect, and I'm satisfied 100%, then it can only go downhill. So you would be right there.

nuttinbutfun Louisville, KY age: 49	Quote from mstme: What if you are contacted by a shadow and then read their profile with all these musts and you fit none of them, then is it okay to say not my type? Or should one be flattered the person was willing to overlook that you did not meet his criteria and feel fortunate he e-mailed you? So the shadow people have no say on here? Oh, just for the record, I do have pix, read my profile.

Have a nice day. I loved this and its soo right. If the OP says she does not make a "first impression" judgement, then IMO I think she is full of it. Everyone does it, you see the picture on a profile, if it attracts you, you read the profile. If they dont sound like what your looking for you move on. "Not my type" can also mean many things, not just straight up looks. Hmmmm, i think the chance has been given when they agreed to meet.

coppermare Grady, AL age: 48	Quote from bekki_08: When I say that a guy is not my type I am referring to the fact that he does not have the qualities that I am interested in. Generally the first few conversations and/or dates can give you a good indication of what the person is like if you pay close attention to actions and reactions. I admit that I do tend to be a little picky but that by no means indicates that I am stuck up or a b***. I'm just confident in knowing what I'm looking for and have no intentions of just "settling". When people tend to settle for what's available it increases the chances of divorce. They eventually become unhappy and resent each other. But that's just my opinion. I sooo agree with you. This has bothered me for a while. There are a lot of nice men, a lot of attractive men, good men, here on DH. But I know what I'm looking for. And sure, I may miss someone very special by the "not my type" thing but I've been around long enough and went through 21 years of marriage to now know what my type is and that having that type is what works. When I say I may have to eat bologna sandwiches for a week to buy a roll of hay...do you, will you accept that? When I say no vacation cause we got horses to take care of? When it's midnight and theres a horse loose or storming and a horse with colic will you be beside me without btchin to take care of it ? Can we spend hours talking about what interest us both and not argue about money spent on that love? If I buy you wranglers instead of dockers would you be pissed? The list goes on, but you get the idea I'm sure....If the answer is no, well sorry your not my type.

katiescarlett72 Arlington, TX age: 35	All I'm saying is that everyone in this world deserves a chance, and if you don't give that chance, you could miss out on meeting great people. I was always told that people that think highly of themselves turn out like real pricks/btches in the end, and those that are willing to lower their standards a little bit and give that chance are more likely to treat you good. Um ... what? I don't know who "always" told you that people who think well of themselves are pricks/btches, but that's garbage. There's a huge difference between having a healthy self-esteem and being stuck up. And frankly, most of the grief I've ever run into is from people who have extremely LOW self-esteem, and are trying to compensate in ways that have really craptastic effects on those around them. Lower my standards? Bollocks. I'd rather be alone and happy than with someone and wishing I had more. I don't need to meet a higher quantity of people, I have enough to deal with as it is. I pick the people I hang with and date based on the highest probability of having things in common and enjoying their company. If I had to run around giving every person I ever meet a "chance" I'd get nothing else done.

joss70 Lexington, VA age: 29	Quote from alicekathleen: HI to Indiana, yes, I have heard that. I cared deeply for a man who told me that because of my "hair" (not long) and body type (not big enough bosoms) I was not his "type". So he dumped me for a woman who had both those qualities, only to find that she was not good-hearted. Now, two years later, he is calling me again. We had a discussion about "type" and he said that he had learned that a "heart of gold" is more important than long hair. We all get stuck on certain traits, and as you say, best to try to get unstuck! I sometimes wonder if many people are not trying to replace a love that did not pan out with someone who looks/acts the same way as the former partner, etc. WOW, you read my mind!!! I often wonder the same?!?!?!?

Hey if I don’t find you attractive all the talking in the world isn’t going to help I don’t find you attractive. I may still talk to you as friends but nothing more will come of it. Sorry but looks is a key factor in a relationship
