[QUOTE="Ralts Bloodthorne, post: 2041004, member: 6390"] [b]From my wife:[/b] "Women decide when they meet you whether or not you are even worthy of finding out if you are good enough material. As every woman's standards are different, and what every woman is looking for is different, every woman looks at something different. Some things take awhile to discern, others you can tell at a single glance. If a man makes a bad impression, it's extremely difficult to see anything beyond that impression, or believe anything else about the person." My wife and I met during Desert Storm, and while she viewed me as good enough friend material that when we met six months later at Ft Hood she was willing to remain being my friend, it wasn't for nearly a year that she decided I was marriagable material and decided to set her sights on me. What was she looking for? For someone with what it took to do whatever had to be done, who would provide for, care for, and protect her and any future children. Why she settled for something like me, I'll never know. [b]From my twin sister:[/b] "We think differently, so we could explain all they want, males still won't understand. I know the minute I see him if I want to bed him or am interested in giving him a shot at a relationship. What it is are a lot of things, most of them, I could not explain to you." My sister has been looking for someone she considers an equal since puberty, and has yet to find whatever quality it is she is looking for. Sadly, she's right at first glance. She married once, and confided in me that if he could not live up to his potential, they'd be divorced. She's divorced. So, do women know at first glance? I'd say yes. Both women I asked said as much. They look at more than just what you are presenting, what you're putting out there, they are also looking at what potential they can see. If you made a bad impression at first, you've got an uphill battle. And according to my wife and my sister, the type of people you hang out with DO matter. [/QUOTE]
