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?

Simple – Didn’t you say you were 42 a few weeks ago? And when you first came on the blog you said you were 38, I remember distinctly. Oh well, not much difference, age ain’t nothing but a number(RIP Aaliyah).

Sauce? What’s sauce,liqor??
I am sorry to reveal tho that some of u,not all of u but some of u were spotted by dudes when they were in their drunken stupor?
so that Kimmie argument that u can’t get a dude in the club ain’t true. Yes u can!
If u do,u just need more time to convince their sober personality that u worth it

Melo – I never said you CAN’T get a dude in a club. On the contrary, more than likely you BOTH have “liquid courage” so your inhibitions are down! You probably could walk out of the club with 3 or 4 dudes every day of the week! A lot are there to “hook up”.
But meet someone you might want to get serious with – not impossible at all but not very likely! But hey, every must do what works for them.

Now you know I’m laughing…Nawwww, I’m messed that up…woosey from needing more sweets. I had 2 pieces of check and 2 slices of cake. I stepped out this morning and on my way back in I was taking I-20 to the downtown connector so I stopped by Popeyes in the West End. I could have eaten a third piece.

celisea, you now know first-hand that the sugar subs in diet drinks actually cause us to crave more food/sweets. thus, they work against you if you’re calorie counting.
i learned all kinds of depressing crap when i got back into my workouts.

2CPTG, I am stepping down so you and Cutie can do yall’s thing. I am done with this polyandrous lifestyle.
I can’t trust you for a second. You know every add-on is supposed to be chosen and approved by me first. Here you are betrothing other women when my back is turned.
Good luck, Cutie he is all yours.
Mr. 2 I will back next week to pick my stuff and don’t you let any of your womenz touch my shyt.
