The Hip Opinion

I read and an article in a magazine one time that took a survey about what trates people search for in a mate.  There were usual things such as honesty, integrity, stability… You know, all that stuff.

Then it asked about “looks” . You know, attractive people.  According to the survey most people were not that opinioated about “good looks”. They often said that “looks are really not that important.

Of course what they say and what they actually do are often very different things. People ARE concerned about looks. That’s just they way it is.

For example, if your a member of a dating website and your surfing profiles who do you think get’s the most views? E- mails? That’s right… The “beautiful people”  do.   It’s a fact…

Plenty of Fish states that some users that “have a good picture up” can get over 100 emails a day. It says that these users don’t have time to write responses to all of them even if they wanted to.

So who do they actually respond to? People they are attracted to of course.  Don’t believe me? Give it a try.

So what if your not as attractive as the next person? Well, there’s all kinds of  e-books and stuff for us guys that tell us how to “seduce” women that are out of our league. They promise that you can practice the techniches taught in their programs and pick up plenty of fish that would have never given us the time of day before.

You can see them advertised on the plenty of fish website.  The one I looked at was 27 bucks and had all the tips you could ever want. Of course I ain’t got 27 bucks.  Do you?

But the plenty of fish is free… The guy that started it is making bank. All because he saw the ridiculousness of the paying dating sites and decided to create a totally free one. Gee, why didn’t I think of that?

Wow isn’t that the question? How do ya know if your in love? Let’s think about this a bit…  Ever heard the statement:

I love you, but I’m not IN love with you?

So what’s the difference?

There seems to be some different kinds of love floating around. Agape love which would be unconditional love. And then there’s the falling in love with your mate… Of course this would certainly have conditions right?

Now isn’t it just as easy to fall OUT of love as it is to fall IN love? It has to be right? That’s why there are so many divorces and such. That just seems to be the sign of the times.

You could say I been in a few relationships (understatement) and I can say I have loved them all…But was I IN love? Gee… I guess I’ll  never never know..

But there’s always next time around in the love experiences of life. They happen everyday. All that love poetry!

On my next post I am going to consider good looks, lust, and love.  Ya’ll come back now ya hear?

It’s almost Valentines day… My love seems to have gone down the drain.. I dunno… I need to learn how to live by myself and love myself… Even if it’s just a little..

So What’s Love Got to do with it anyways? Is it just a second hand emotion?

That thrill of “falling” seems to be what I am addicted to… Love addiction… It’s hard to handle ya know?

What to do on Valentines day?
Perhaps sit at home and read…That’s a good idea huh?
