Members ladylove Posted September 25, 2008 Members Report Share Posted September 25, 2008 I was in the grocery store the other day (I'm always there) and there was a gentleman in the fresh foods area that I couldn't stop looking at. I had to keep myself from staring at him. This man wasn't gorgeous or extremely tall or any of the obvious things. First off, he was probably mid 50's, had dark hair with some grey at his temples, clean shaven, brown eyes, trim but not a hard body. He was wearing a pair of jeans and some kind of collared shirt. I got close to him (choosing tomatoes, I didn't need) and he had nice hands (I notice hand on both males and females).I don't know what it was about him but he was drop dead sexy, at the same time nothing special. I would have liked for him to smile my way, but, no make up, hair in a ponytail and glasses, he looked but no smile. I can't figure out what it was about this men that would have made me drop to my knees in the middle of the grocery store without even knowing his name (figure of speech, I would never cheat on H). Have any of you ever experienced such a strong response to someone who you never even met or even seen before? What is it about an ordinary man that mad him sexy as hell. I'm still thinking about him days later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see attractiveness in guys that some of my friends would never look at! And if he makes me laugh forget about it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members vanilla_bean Posted September 26, 2008 Members Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 Yeah, I've had irrational responses to men that I don't know or care about. Sometimes it's just because he notices ME. Sometimes it's in his manner. Sometimes it's in the way he interacts with others. I TOTALLY know what you mean about the hands. Hands and teeth for me. Weird? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ladylove Posted September 26, 2008 Author Members Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 Attraction is very complex, it's not just the chemistry that you mention, it's also a whole lot of unconscious elements that come together. When all of this lines up, and your are in a particularly attentive and focused mood, and by happenstance, an individual is in the right place at the right time....this is why people call it 'falling in love at first sight'. Having such an overwhelming positive cognitive, emotional, physical (and perhaps spiritual) response to someone upon first meeting is powerful, but may not constitute love (as you so aptly state between the lines).That feeling of connectivity, though, is nearly irresistible to many people. The trick, of course, is to have that connectivity with your own SO, which is often much much more difficult to attain (since both people have to want it, and it it takes WORK).Yea, I'v been there, like the Aerosmith song goes: 'could this be heaven or hell, to fall in love twice a day, such a sweet price to pay'.Wow, it was really weird. And yea, marriage/relationships are a lot of work, but very worth it if both parties want it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest eminatic Posted September 29, 2008 Report Share Posted September 29, 2008 i tend to either look down, or up out into space when im walking and am not aware that other people are around. im in my own world most of the time and often even fail to hear friends shouting for me, or sometimes i'll walk right past a friend and not notice them trying to say hi =/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
