| | Have you ever been attracted to somebody because of what they post.Page 1 of 4 (1, 2, 3, 4) | | No names please it would be shafted by the mods, have you ever been attracted to your fellow posters, or feel you develop more friends, build more confidence, or consider more people could show an interest in your profile because you post. Or are you just in it simply for the fun. | |

| Have you ever been attracted to somebody because of what they post. Posted: 8/28/2006 4:48:57 AM | When I read an interesting post I do check the profile....Sometimes I think, oh he's cute...but I enjoy reading profiles and people's interests. Personally I'm not posting on forums for guys to check my profile....I just enjoy posting my opinion every now and again. | |

| Have you ever been attracted to somebody because of what they post. Posted: 8/28/2006 4:52:25 AM | Absoluetly ... and I have gotten emails because a man was attracted to me after reading my posts. I can think of a couple of men who are posting that I would love to meet ... could fall for them in a New York Minute ... don't dare let them know though! | |

Who doesn't love these charming avenues forums provide? Keep bouncing, keep being 'visible' and intruiging and spread good vibes | |

| Have you ever been attracted to somebody because of what they post. Posted: 8/28/2006 6:30:04 AM | I make a point of contacting people whose posts I have appreciated, whether there is interest there or not. Just like talking to someone after a meeting. I see no real difference. Its just social interaction. There have been some however I have formed a bond/friendship with already. And about 5 or 6 I really admire as people. One or 2 that are total meltdowns, but that's part of the fun too eh?
I do think (to a degree) you can get to know a little of someone on the threads, but so far I have found the emails to show much more of who the person really is and vice versa. In fact some I have shared mails with, have then gone onto the threads and I have hardly recognised them as the same person? Public persona private persona? And a couple of us, dont interact at all on the threads. Funny eh?
Like 2 different worlds. I think a little of both. And whoever it was who posted they like someone? He's a GUY, you might have to let him know. Or at least message him and chat and break the ice. You'll soon get a feel for if he is cool with you or not. | |

Posted: 8/28/2006 6:44:19 AM | mine started off as a innocent postings about how to bring a fly back to life.... and it went from there as a friendly chat during the day..... to it being exposed on another thread to give us the courage to express our feelings to what they are today.....
alot of the original folks here would remember that thread oh so fondly...lol... | |

| Have you ever been attracted to somebody because of what they post. Posted: 8/29/2006 12:01:19 AM | Definitely. That's the way my favourites list has been created. Of course, they could remove themselves and that would be fine by me but I do hope that they also see from my posts that nothing attracts me more than their witty retorts, 'bon-mots' and 'food for thought' (because ladies are also on my favourites list).
Could this cyber attraction develop into something more meaningful? Surely it can ... if the 'tango is danced by ' | |

| Have you ever been attracted to somebody because of what they post. Posted: 8/29/2006 2:11:54 AM | I often check out profiles from forum posters - male and female. If I find the posts interesting I just want to know a bit more about the person.
Sometimes, I think to myself after reading a particularly stupid or offensive post "who is this moron?" so I check the profile.
And sometimes, a person's posts are so boring, that I don't bother checking their profile ever. This may lead me to refer to them as he/she, or even "it", unless they have a pic to make it obvious.  | |

| Have you ever been attracted to somebody because of what they post. Posted: 8/29/2006 2:27:12 AM | | I particularly like the posters (and some moderators) that have about a truckload of knowledge on a subject and choose to unload it all in one post and take up almost an entire page. I really enjoy scrolling down and down...down, down and not reading a word. It's a bit like reading an encyclopedia, accept you didn't look it up. | |

| Have you ever been attracted to somebody because of what they post. Posted: 8/29/2006 3:35:32 AM | Oh Sid you should read some of them! They're good!
But then again I read books not comics too I enjoy something you can get your teeth into and step into that other person's world for a while.
Single line dribble and senseless waffle is a real turn off for me. Those are the ones I skim over.
I guess everyone is different eh? | |

| Have you ever been attracted to somebody because of what they post. Posted: 8/29/2006 4:09:12 AM | I have to admit that yes, I would contact someone based on what they post, and I have. But Cuddly is no longer looking (which I certinly respect) and DreamCatcher is just too far away. But I certinly respect those two and many other people, male as well as female because of what they post. It helps give an idea as to their way of thinking and personality. For me it is an insight in to the person.
Now, if I could just make DreamCatcher move closer. Hey, I have good neighbours here Dreamy.  | |
