That is absolutely true. When all is said and done, appearances mean little, we get used to how each other looks. But a great mind, a compassionate heart, that attracts me. I love a woman with a brilliant, creative mind and loves to learn.

Intimacy with someone's whose mind you love is wonderful.

As a story-telling species, most of us thrive/strive to connect, be heard, listen, reverberate, resonate and respond. This can be a source for our intimacy to grow on.

I love that. Yup. I have friends like that, where we can just be ourselves around each other. Just wish I could find a partner like that.

That is most beautiful and arousing/ alluring. That fresh perspective is the best I've heard in a very long time. It explains what I can rarely put into words , and it go places I didnt let my self think of as aspirations and intention. I like that a lot

Intimacy for me, mentally and emotionally, means someone knows my strengths, knows what I'm proud of, knows what I like about myself... but more importantly, knows my weaknesses, knows my fears, knows what I'm ashamed of, what I hate about myself, knows me at my worst, accepts me and loves me as I am... and I know and accept and love that person as well.

That's a beautiful thing and beautifully put i like it

First of all you have to put that mind out there and wave it like a welcoming light on a dark cold wet night in the wilderness. When it attracts it has to be alive alert and receptive to the stranger.
Which of your minds do you think actually controls you? ?

Exactly. Beautifully well said.

And I imagine your challenge is you are so beautiful, folks fall for your shell beauty and neglect the mind.

Intellectual intercourse is a must long before anything else can be enjoyable!

Beautiful on the outside is nice, but it means nothing unless they're beautiful on the inside too...

Yes please. I am very cerebral when it comes to attraction as well.

You will hear from a lot of people on this post.
