Do People Like You......

[frankfrank]

My sexual appetite on a 1-10 scale is an 11...

Ah, so THAT is where my sexual appetite went. Yes, interestingly, I'm almost absolutely non-sexual...though I think that I've rechanneled that into other beneficial things...and, since becoming virtually non-sexual, other things such as cuddling have become all the more wonderful in a way that goes entirely beyond sexuality, and transcends it.

Basically the sensations of interaction, being close, and touch where and if involved, are simply so intense that any sexual feelings are simply "entirely trivial" in comparison.

"Chubby black women" very, very possibly, give the best hugs in the world!

I'm going to a men-cuddling event in a couple of weeks, which I'm greatly looking forward to. This can be SO up-my-alley.

********************

That said, it seems that a very high majority of people who have met me, do indeed like me. Furthermore, I like a large majority of people I meet, as well...and I'm not at all adverse to greeting people, meeting for the first time ever, with a hug. Can be either gender or non-binary gender. I can think of a couple people who are most likely anti-gay (and for at least one of these guys, Rick Santorum is the end-all and be-all of political creatures), who also KNOW that I'm gay, and entirely adore my visits.

I liked you instantly when we talked on the phone...

Oh yeah...my sex appetite finally slowed down but the new groove is every other day we have sex...except we had two in a row yesterday and the day before...maybe tonight too. I am eternally horny I guess...

Generally yes, but I can understand why lots of people don't like me. I can be pretty stubborn/self-righteous sometimes and that can be really annoying to deal with. I do try to be as understanding as I can, but frequently find myself frustrated by people speaking from positions that seem to lack empathy and I'm pretty vocal about that. It makes me seem sanctimonious. Maybe I am.

I've also noticed that people tend to like me less as they get to know me more. Perhaps it's a natural consequence of satisfied curiosity, or maybe people gradually learn that the personality traits they might have projected onto my blank slate don't quite match up to the reality. I'm not sure.

The people in my life do tend to view me in a positive way though. Certainly more positively than I view myself.

 

[Zeno Lorea]

In real life, people tend to like me because I am very good at playing the devil's advocate and finding compromise, even after stating my personal views, which may be not so much in the middle.

But that's real life. On the internet I don't always manage to convey nuance, and I often get attacked, sometimes from both sides.

It's too early to tell. I'm but in my 50's. We'll see by and by.

Me too, so I second that

 

[rareboy]

It depends.

 

[Harke the Boeotarch]

And if so....why ?

Because they prefer a comfortable illusion over the true nature of my personality.

 

[TheLoveableLoner]

Very much so.

I have a pretty crazy/fun/witty personality. I smile constantly almost as if I'm trying to hold on a laugh at times. I'm good at conversation, very outgoing and sociable.

I tend bar so I've met a LOT of people.

I'm pretty blessed as I have a ton of acquaintances that like me, but also several really good friends.

I kinda feel guilty having this "gripe," but one downfall is that being a loner, I sometimes get that guilt trip from friends when I sneak off to do things alone instead of inviting them.

Being a loner is relative. If you are around people who don't even visit the toilet on their own, then you are easily an individual.

Oh shit...I know the feeling. I had to completely 86 my humor on the internet years ago....it does not translate well...or maybe it is not meant to....

it is kinda weird sometimes when I am typing what I leave out ...and then I think I sound so dull because I water everything down...but it is still what I think...just in a bland kinda way....

Put down the red pen, pick up the Pam, and get cracking on my cheese'n eggs, Laqueeba.

Lex

Might put a lil sum sum extra in that for ya sis

 

[ronnie_h]

Does it really matter? I'm not striving to be everybody's darling, so if people like me it's fine. If not, it's fine too.

 

[tarallucci]

Yes, because of my eyebrows

I am quiet and friendly... I think it's the opposite with me, the more they get to know me the more they like me.

I can relate to this. Sometimes people take it personally if I decline invites to spend time alone instead. It's almost never because I don't want to spend time with them specifically though, it's usually because I just want to be by myself.

Most of the time they're understanding though.

Not on stuffed cabbage night

Most def.

In my personal case, I tend to consider myself a loner because no matter how outgoing I am, I also enjoy doing things alone that many others don't: movies, dining out, travel, etc. And the fact that I have no qualms whatsoever with being single.

People who can't do things alone irk me to no end.

Yep. It's rarely ever a huge deal, but I do often get the "Awwwwwwwww, I would've went with you!" as a response to my doing something on my own. Most humans naturally assume that if you're doing a movie or museum alone, it's because you couldn't find anyone to do it with you, not because you wanted to do it alone.

It is a truth universally acknowledged that all Canadians are likeable. And New Yorkers aren't.
