Intentions determine attraction?
When someone is just looking to hook up, obviously there is a different approach involved in what appeals to them. You’re not that concerned about intelligence, sense of humor, or kindness. It’s pretty much all about whether or not they “do it for you” in terms of attraction.
If you actually want to meet someone that has potential, hopefully your attraction will go beyond the superficial things like their body or their face. Interestingly enough there was a study published that described the way we select mates when we want short-term or long-term connections.
Do you consider a person’s body (height, stature, etc.) before you look at their face? What if you are looking for a real relationship? Do you prioritize importance of body and face in a different way?

Well considering the dude I was in line behind at the airport…thong sandals, painted toes, off the shoulder sweater (no bra mind you), a huge tatoo on his back, polished fingernails and looking around to see if anyone was looking at him. I was but I guess wrong gender. Oh the back of his neck was doing the hotdog thing. I could have sworn though he was the dude from RHOA that did Kim’s wig/hair….guess ole girl had nobody else to marry but self.

Actually, DreamsMat, I know the chick who owns the business. So, of course, my opinion would be biased. With that being said, I know that she has been doing this for a while and is very dedicated to making sure the parties are enjoyed by all. I’m sure she will be willing to provide you with references. (Not like she’s going to give you any bad ones….lol)
I just realized that I don’t see a phone number on the website. It is 678.478.2219.

2CPTG – I always behave, depending on what your definition of behaving is, lol! But its not my homecoming, checking out the vendors. Especially since my cousins arent coming in…..Morehouse alum
Dreams – it depends on how quickly Kym can get my paperwork going cuz 2CPTG is trying to have his own community. Im just saying….and go on and getcha girl a glass of wine. Its that kinda day……
czBrat/YESSHEIS – I cant tell it but I will say I have to stay away cause its full of snacks (chips, popcorn, candy, danishes, donuts, trail mix, etc) and then there is the coke machine…..WHEW!
