1. I’ll call it a relationship way before anyone considers it to be a relationship.
Then I’ll have to explain that I see all social interactions that are ongoing as relationships and then I’ll seem like a overthinking weirdo.
2. I will fall in love fairly quickly. And people will say that you barely know me, and I’ll say that’s true but I trust my Intuition and it says that there is something here. Love expands to fill the available space. It is not a finite thing to me. I’m not saying one true love or perfection or anything. I’m saying that I like, respect, enjoy your thoughts and mind and I feel something in you that calls to me. Again, weirdo.
3. I will fail to initiate physical intimacy, including as little as kissing until you are thinking Finally. Because I will not act without consent and I am steadfast in my rules(which I suppose is number 4). I don’t do the when the moment is right. I depend on my partner/date to tell me, Yes Now. Of course, I’m a passionate man so that may later seem to be a mistake. As in, I’ll want to kiss and touch and hold and hug all of the time, plus more intimate things as we progress. And believe me, I have no regard for public space. So PDA is very much on the market.
There are a bunch more but those are the ones that span across my experience.
1 and 2 I can see being a prob

1 is when it comes up. 2 definitely is, but how else am I to define it? I’m not in like or lust. Perhaps we need better words. What’s a word for attracted to, respectful of, fascinated by, and caring of, if not love?

They don’t seem like fuck ups to me. Seems like that’s just the way you are. Nothing wrong with that.

I’ve had complaints. Or people who I really liked who shy away because of them. Maybe fuck up is just how I term it because I wanted it to work. But yeah, mostly it’s just how I think. And I can tamp it down but really it’s almost a lie to my way of thinking to not be honest about where my heads at.

If people don’t like you for who you are then they aren’t the right people for you. This is just my opinion of course.

I know. I’m not good at first impressions would be the best way to put it. My demeanor in person can be a good deal spikier unless you know me. So…..

I’m not good at first impressions either. I’m plain, middle aged and nice, so people tend to disregard and underestimate me. I’m one of those women that gets more attractive the longer you know me. or so I’ve been told. People that claim first impressions are the most important are clueless to the real value of individuals.

I’m a 6ft3 broad shouldered, long haired, goth. They don’t disregard me, but they don’t tend to want to get close either. And I agree, you need to get to know a person to know their beauty.
