But it would still be your decision if you'll call or you'll fold.

But the question is, "what is there to see differently?" The packaging? or the soul inside the packaging? Sometimes, what people think of as a flaw, is what actually makes something or someone special. Every good and perfect gift comes from God. Often times, we as humans stop and gaze using our imperfect sight to label something or someone and thus, only end up ruining our expectations. Beautiful windows are lovely but they are of no good if they don't allow light to shine in.singularitynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17248569.post-47741030547512194922009-09-23T11:18:55.196+08:002009-09-23T11:18:55.196+08:00Blogspere is still superficial and indeed chemistr...Blogspere is still superficial and indeed chemistry matters.domjullianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17998803893728799524noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17248569.post-12627413675536623702009-09-23T13:46:43.104+08:002009-09-23T13:46:43.104+08:00attitude matters big time. even if a person is ver...attitude matters big time. even if a person is very smart but has an attitude problem, very unattractivethecuriouscathttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10447007175797465850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17248569.post-35395454088159746622009-09-23T15:23:16.662+08:002009-09-23T15:23:16.662+08:00agree with max. been there done that. it's pos...agree with max. been there done that. it's possible. it's like dating in reverse. in the real world, you get attracted to someone physically first and then their intelligence and personality. with blogs, it's the other way around. it's unique and you're right, the medium is still relatively young. it's not like other forms of online dating where certain norms have been set.citybuoyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00750180276675423002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17248569.post-20022757678703024842009-09-23T17:21:48.249+08:002009-09-23T17:21:48.249+08:00its possible. but i agree with knox, it depends on...its possible. but i agree with knox, it depends on your intention and how you'll be able to sustain the fact that the persona of what or how he writes supersedes the superficiality of common romance.wanderingcommuterhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04870111584760550069noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-17248569.post-25462557795896694712009-09-23T18:45:27.998+08:002009-09-23T18:45:27.998+08:00I liked this post, really...it got me to thinking ...I liked this post, really...it got me to thinking that if that were me, would I fall in love with just someone's words?
