JoVo Jude Law has been picked as the sexiest man alive, Vague. Plus, you have a pony tail and one earring. xp Shut up. Kokoryta But, he's not sexy. xp Johnny Depp is sexy, Liv Tyler is very sexy, and if Peorth from Ah! My Goddess was real well, she's just kick all their asses. surprised Mmm Johnny. How old is he, now? CannibalisticSpork Jude Law is good looking, but I still have a weird attraction to Bruce Willis... Not many other people I know think he is even close to being attractive, but I know I am not the only one...
As for why I think he is good looking... I have no clue...  Bruce Willis was TOTALLY hot!!! He's not really anymore, since he's getting very old, and going bald so he always shaves his head. But he was SOOOO sexy when he was younger. Lucky Demi... Jude Law's just creepy looking though. NadiaM I like guys that have a tummy, some body hair, and generally all the things guys aren't supposed to have. xp Ooh, that's me. I'm going to work on the tummy though. it's annoying. I like all sorts of guys, but I'm not big on blonds, tall & skinny( tall or skinny is fine. Well, I don't like tall, but I can deal), or too smooth- it's like a kid's body. Shimbo-kun I never do online dating. It's pretty rediculous to me. ... Please be more sensitive to your environment. A lot of our users feel isolated IRL and value their online relationships very much. I certainly value the memories of mine, even though I don't do that anymore. Also, a new rule: excessive quoting will not be tolerated. it stretches pages needlessly and is an annoyance to everyone. You should only quote as far back as is necessary to establish what you're talking about/responding to.

Online relationships in general are pretty good. Hot online sexxors can be addicting and bad, though. I've met a bunch of good friends online, on eeven sent me a new monitor when my old one broke. That was like the best gift I've gotten from someone I've never met in person(Though I did meet him later, and he's super cool).
I'm single, currently, yep. And meeting new people, but I don't feel despirate about it. Though a sugar daddy couldn't hurt.
I always thought Bruce Willis was hot, yeah. He's pretty fine, though aging as everyone does. Clint's looking good after all this time, though. I guess if you're an action star not relying on looks you have a longer movie lifespan or something....blah blah blah. I need money.

Keithing We're not all paired up with someone, Teffy. In fact I think it's just the opposite, most of us are single. Relax, take it from the nervous wreck, anxiety doesn't get you anywhere. I'm single. While I wouldn't necessarily like to be, I'm taking one for the team.

Teffy um... sorry about last night... when I'm tired I just tend to get really depressed at lack of relationship... It's ironic: the more you think you need a relationship to be happy, the less happy any relationship will make you. Don't be so quick to jump into the sea, little fishy. wink

I value the people that I meet online and the friendships I have with them, but online relationships are rather... limited...

JoVo Shimbo-kun I value the people that I meet online and the friendships I have with them, but online relationships are rather... limited... limited != ridiculous They are. I don't see how you can deny that. You're restricted to just visuals, and the occasional vocal message... but quite frankly, I wouldn't be able to be in a relationship in which I couldn't TOUCH the person... Plus, people tend to be quite different in person than online. I have some friends in real life that I really hate talking to online because they're annoying, but I love being with in person.

They are what? "!=" (not equal to) or "=" (equal to)? They aren't the same, and you are agreeing me with with the above sentence and arguing against me with the rest of your post, so I'm confused. Shimbo-kun I don't see how you can deny that. Rather easily. Behold! I deny that.Shimbo-kun You're restricted to just visuals, and the occasional vocal message... And that is a problem, why? I get to see and talk to people I don't date and know only from the Internet. Hell, I often see and talk to people who I meet in person but don't have the time to hang out with. It's not an uncommon status of friendship. Shimbo-kun but quite frankly, I wouldn't be able to be in a relationship in which I couldn't TOUCH the person... Then you are describing a preference. Your opinion is not a fact. I may not enjoy crawfish, but I'd be insulting the locals (and risk getting my a** kicked) if I called their enjoyment of crawfish ridiculous. Shimbo-kun Plus, people tend to be quite different in person than online. People are also different in one-on-one situations than they are in large groups. People are different in a church setting than they are in a club. I fail to see how any of what you describe relates solely to the Internet. Shimbo-kun I have some friends in real life that I really hate talking to online because they're annoying, but I love being with in person. And, in my case, I have friends online who I'd never hang out with in real life because they're annoying (and might disapprove of my rambunctious lifestyle). As Rej said, it goes both ways. Case in point: In my more introverted and closeted days, I was in an online relationship with a man who lived quite a few states apart from me. The relationship was one of the most fulfilling in my life. While there was no sex involved, I learned a great deal from him about life, and I ended up making two major mistakes that have taught me a great deal about how to behave with others. Today, that relationship continues to inspire my behavior toward both friends and partners in very positive ways. I'm still friends with him, and I intend to meet him in person one day.

Keithing Do we need to talk again? However, it did lighten my day a little. Thank you! whee Don't you just hate these ambigious messages? ninja I'm sorry... *throws self at brickwall* I promise I will try harder to be good... *Hits head into wall again* Punishment for the crimes of words... It's the only way I will learn....

Actually, I think online relationships cn be rather good. I mean sure, there's the no sex, no cuddle thing, but you can indeed eventually hook up together, especially if you live in the same country, you can move to the same town or whatnot. If you live in different country, it's more expensive, but same story. Just look at Pogo or any of the many different Gaian relationships that have become real life things and worked up. (they're engaged).

JoVo-- By saying "They are," I was referring to my point that online relationships are limited. I wasn't aware that "!=" meant "not equal to", and I thought that it might have been a typo on your behalf. Visual (or perhaps in this case, it's more commonly "textual") interraction is much less personal, I feel, than direct, person-to-person interraction, which it cases that I've experienced, causes the relationship to be weakened, or more difficult to develope. I never said that anything I was sayin was fact. Obviously, subjective adjectives like "rediculous," are subject to opinion in degree. Perhaps "rediculous" was a bad term to use, or perhaps I didn't explain well enough my standing point. I certainly didn't mean to offend anyone, and I hope that you didn't take it that way. I also appologize to anyone that I DID offend by using the word "rediculous". JoVo People are also different in one-on-one situations than they are in large groups. People are different in a church setting than they are in a club. I fail to see how any of what you describe relates solely to the Internet. It's often times difficult to get a good sense of one's personality online, is what I mean. And in all your examples, it's possible to view a person you know offline in all those contexts, while if you're online, you only get one view of him/her. JoVo And, in my case, I have friends online who I'd never hang out with in real life because they're annoying (and might disapprove of my rambunctious lifestyle). As Rej said, it goes both ways. Yes, it does go bother ways, and I forgot to put that. It's a point I agree with. However, in the case you stated, it would seem as though those people are just people you don't want to interract with period, because you say they're annoying and that you wouldn't hang out with them in person, and that's only from an online perspective. The example I gave offered both offline and online contexts, and how someone can be desireable in one context, but not the other. Your example seems a bit one-sided, so it's not really comparable... In reference to your "Case in point", I, too believe it is still possible to learn from people online, of course. Obviously, you're talking to real person on the other side of the computer, so you get real life responses. However, you can't learn the same things from a non-physical and in-person relationship that you can with an online one. That isn't to say you can't learn ANYTHING, but it's still limited. It's not like I haven't experienced feelings for people online. In fact, I became quite infatuated with one person, and that's when I realized that online relationships are definitely not the kind for me. I yearned to be with him, but I knew I couldn't because he was too far away, and it would be difficult, expensive, and probably rather awkward to ever meet in person. I learned a bit about myself from that, and also how to better interract with people I'm attracted to. However, I was not able to apply much of it in any offline context. In any event, as I previously stated, I didn't intend to offend anyone, and I will be more careful in the future. I appologize for being insensitive. As a side note, it seems that you must agree with at least part of what I said, because the last thing you said was, "I'm still friends with him, and I intend to meet him in person one day." Surely this means that there is something you feel you need from meeting him in person that couldn't be fulfilled with only an online relationship?
