Yes and I can tell if they are my type of person too/I will get along with them in the first 5 minutes. Some girls just turn you off from their immediate vibe even if they look good.

Huh?


I can tell from across the room if I am attracted to someone. Is this a trick question?

Yes physically but it takes time to really know.

I don't know at first if they really like me. They can simply be polite and friendly and you can't really tell if there is something more there yet at first.

Yes, and the date is over just like that. It doesn't happen anymore because I simply won't meet up with a woman that has anything but athletic, slender or petite on her body description. I would have no problem dating an average built girl, but apparently average means 20lbs overweight to most people online.

I've never been rejected on an online date, but I can typically tell if a woman is into me or not in most social settings, so I would think that I would know if a girl wasn't into me on an online date. I'm pretty good at not approaching or contacting women that I know are out of my league so I tend to avoid that situation.

I've met a very few guys via online dating sites, and
haven't had chemistry (attraction in either the sensory or mental realm)
with any of them offline, don't know how they felt about me
(except for one guy who kept msging me every so often, but whom I found quite off-putting).

I can tell within first few moments if I find someone immediately unappealing or intriguing, usually.
In my personal experiences, attraction can grow/build-but not if there isn't some kernel of it when first we meet.

Yes I look at every detail from the online pic. If he looks like the pic or better. I am attracted to him more.

I can almost always tell if I'm NOT attracted on a first meet or date, usually within seconds. Often I can tell that I am attracted but confirmation can take some time. Sometimes if it's indeterminate, another date or two will make it pretty certain one way or the other.

Whether or not my date is attracted to me only matters if I'm attracted to them. Sometimes they're not, and there's no point worrying about it. Next!
