Since my brain is not that active by itself, sometimes I need that somebody that matters to me to say something to make me think - what, by the way, shows how much genetic material my parents wasted making my brain.
How much matters to you the age, social position, height/weight, color/ethenicity/racial background of your partner/lover/love, and what people think of you when you're together?...

How much matters to you the age, social position, height/weight, color/ethenicity/racial background of your partner/lover/love, and what people think of you when you're together? I mean, not the drive-through, fast-food answers, but what you REALLY feel and think about this?
Age: I prefer older, just because I find guys that are younger or my age are way to fucking immature for me. Take asreal, for example, he's four years older than me. I do agree with them needing to keep up with me.
Social Position: Hmmm... you know, I don't think it has to do with a job so much, but rather, their education level. I even wouldn't mind if I worked and my husband would be a stay at home dad. I don't think it is fair for a girl to sacrifice a good job or good schooling because she wants to be "less" than the guy.
And believe me, my sister is like this... she's postponing her graduation because she wants her bf to graduate first from University. It's a big status thing.... I think it's stupid.
Height/Weight: It really depends how the guy handles it. Height and weight don't really matter to me, but if he's going to be short and have small man syndrome (trying to be tougher or an asshole to make him a 'bigger man') or he's always self conscious about his weight, then I don't like it. The shortest guy I have dated is 5'7"... and he was an ass.
The tallest I have dated is 6'2", which is a foot taller than me. Kinda makes kissing funny.
But it is good when someone takes care of themselves. It's a good turn-on when someone looks good because they eat healthy and work out too. It's awesome to have an ACTIVE boy
BUT then again, if it is too extreme (which Mr. Shortman was) -- then it is HORRIBLE. Going to the gym 4-5 days a week, eating protein bars and shaving arm and chest hair to look bigger...
Ethnicity: It really really doesn't matter to me. I've never dated an asian. I've dated all sorts of backgrounds of white guys though- German, Russian, Swiss, Ukranian, and Irish/Scottish. I've had crushes on basically every race-- even asian, believe it or not.
I think it mostly depends on how family reacts to it. At first, one of my bf's dads didnt like me because I wasn't white. But whatever. He got to know me and then he REALLY liked me.
What I don't like is when people just like someone BECAUSE of their race. So watch it Mr. Logan. Or you'll get in trouble.
One time this guy wanted to date me because I was asian... he thought I would be the typical asian girl, and BOY was he WRONG. He's such an asshole. I swear if I EVER see him again, I will kick his ass. HARD.
What do people think when asreal and I are together? His friends think we're cute, My friends say that he's a good match for me, and when we are out and about just walking around, no one doesnt say anything. I think interracial dating is common in Calgary.
Just wait til we go out to the Maritimes.. where there are NO asians... hahahah it will be interesting.
Actually, when I went to BC last summer with a previous bf, I did notice some weird looks because the only asians out there were Exchange Students.. oh well.
Hope that answers all your questions.
