Re: Love or just encounters
It would have to be sense of humor, smile & eyes. Since the eyes are the window to your soul it makes it easy to see if your partner is full of shit. But dont get fooled by the body and just want that. It sometimes make you forget the rest of it. If you cant hold a conversation for more than five minutes about something stupid like the benifits of bobby pins then you are better off without them. Thus if you are to be with that person you should be able to talk about that for an hour or so. So look for the beauty within and not the beauty outside. Remember outside beauty is only skin deep. But inner beauty radiates everything around it.
just my thoughts here is a nickel may i have three pennys back please????

Re: Love or just encounters
no way can i say it better than the boy in the stockade.... the girl that has me twitterpated smiles with her eyes and there has been MANY hours spent talking of things way less important than bobby pins.
if she has the sassy playfullness and other non-physical qualities that attract me. my vision of ideal beauty will slowly morph until i'm comparing others to her.
i'd choose love/romance everytime... even if i dont really believe in it all that much

Re: Love or just encounters
honesty comes first...theres a difference between BS and a sense of humor...then conversation..able to talk about everything or nothing and listening (you never know there may be a test later)...learning about each others likes and dislikes and respecting those things....by then you should have a pretty good idea if your partner is caring, compassionate, interesting, fun loving and have a handle on their passionate nature...now if you happen to be one of us who has been burned in the past you'll appreciate that it is okay to take it slow and when that little love bug bites you...you'll know it

Re: Love or just encounters
It's funny how we all agree on what we want in someone and we all end up alone, isn't it? I've noticed that everybody asks for sincerity, affection, understanding which undoubtedly are all wonderful values, but when we actually find those in someone, for some strange reason the person won't "click" to us... is it maybe because despite of the person's values that we found, he/she doesn't probably have the looks we want????
Sure, I'd like to find a woman that I can communicate with, but hey, I'd like her to be gorgeous looking too! Am I a male pig???
P.S. I know my posts are a bit long and complicated sometimes, it's just that it's not very easy to express feelings and more complexed thoughts in another language... sorry for that!

What happens in 30 or 40 years from now when she grows old and it starts to show? Will you not love her anymore because of it?
Just a thought.

I totally agree with you MH, what I commented on is the fact that, perhaps, looks play a more important role to the image we create of an "ideal partner" (if such a term exists) than we like to admit... What I said is based on my needs and wants right now, at this age, at this stage in my life. In 30 or 40 years I will most likely have other knowledge, experiences and priorities of what I want in my life... most likely I'll need someone to nurse (correct word?) me

Re: Love or just encounters
Well lets see know. I've told MA on several occasions that it was more important to me that she be my best friend, than my wife. She was just 18 when we married and now 23 yrs later, we are just as committed to each other now as before. Even in the troubled times, we stood behind behind the other with as much support as possible. Looks play a minor role, although I would never have looked if she didn't have certain physical qualities. We both have put on some pounds over the years, but now she losing it, and I'm finding it. That sucks. We are able to talk to each other and never talked at each other. If we disagreed, we would do it with respect. We have put the others needs before our own. It's by far the hardest job one will ever have. A relationship has to grown from nothing into something. It's not like a light switch, you don't just turn it on/off. It takes lot's, and lot's, and lot's of work, but for us it has been worth it, and would do it with her again, but would like to change the timing of certain events.

Re: Love or just encounters
it's love when the years have taken a toll on the body, when those pesky little laugh lines are hanging out on your face...your boobs are not quite a perky as they once were and your partner looks at you when you're waking and whispers..."you are beautiful"

Re: Love or just encounters
He who has not expierenced True Love has no idea what it is. so it might be easy for them to pick encounters. But once you have Loved (not just sex ) then all you want out of life is LOVE
So the choice is EASY LOVE

for some of us who have never experienced true love, it's all we want, we don't want encounters,,,

Re: Love or just encounters
Honestly would have to say that I couldnt answer that quite well yet as most of you know love's never struck me yet far as i know. The thing for me would be this little feeling inside knowing theres a possiblities that someone likes me and when i know that, i'm no where close to being myself. Like I have to be someone else to impress them. So i'd rather go on not knowing how much they might like me. If i was to like someone... that only lasts for so long too then the 'tingly' feelings gone.
