With these things, it's hard to know until you've met the right person.
To me, mental age matters more. At the moment I'm trying to "fight off" a crush who's too much younger than me..
but still, I have feelings for him.
When you put someone on a pedestal, that might ruin it for you..because even if he's had interest in your at first, it may be gone once they know you're putting the person on a pedestal.
It's a turn off if a guy likes me just for my looks.
It may work on some other girls if - she is sexually oriented (just wants sex) + you're hot.
It's also a turn off if he is overly attached.
Girls like confident guys, and showing that you need her attention so badly implies you are not...
IOIs from a girl (personal observations and experiences):
1) She looks at you differently from how she looks at other people
2) She laughs at your jokes differently from how she laughs at other people's jokes
3) NOT an IOI: if she initiates chat with you frequently - Lots of men...
Thanks for your input everyone!
As for the internet...I tried to put up profiles online but deleted them shortly...
too many guys who are "not looking for anything serious"..
and I find it hard to really open up and be my true self online, because I don't know if the people on online dating...
Hi, where are some good places to meet the opposite sex?
I'm talking about..people who are serious about relationships, not people looking for one-night stands.
Thanks!
