Dude, the coolness factor for most folks on this site is pretty damn high!

If I notice someone interesting, whose posts I like, I sometimes "follow" them, to make sure I see their new posts.

I have found that everyone is intriguing in their own way. It's finding out these complexities and enjoying them and sharing my own - the two way-ness that makes positive relationships

I think it is easier to be intrigued by someone when all you know of them is an electronic simulacrum. Knowing someone in reality means having to accept all of those bubble-popping aspects. "You’re lactose intolerant and you do WHAT? after inadvertently drinking milk?" When we only know a little about someone and then we wonder about them, we never wonder about the bad stuff - only the good. So it is much easier to find them intriguing.

I don't really do this with people on-line anymore - I started chatting online in high school so I learned early on that people on the other end are just people. But sometimes I find myself doing that with an author or an artist. I should know better but yet when their art moves me, I am intrigued by them as a person.

Really not much different than connecting in person. Our words are a huge indicator of who we are and how we think (if we do) and I am drawn to kindness above all else so yes of course we will be intrigued by some and block the shit of others.

You could answer their post or comment by saying that you find them intriguing. I bet it would make their day. I also enjoy all of the posts that I get involved in. I sure don't agree with everyone but a well thought out comment or post assists me in stretching my belief system and food for thought can definitely fill the belly of the soul, and if you don't believe in a soul that's ok just fill in your own word.

I think to some degree it does, but most people I find either boring, arrogant, or ignorant. I think this site’s population skews the average, though, not enough.

Like minds call out to like minds, physical expression and dress send out subconscious messages to those attuned to receive them.
Vocabulary and word choice are another indicator of like potential compatibility.

I find that in the less than 2 months I’ve been here I see and meet more people here who are a lot like me than I have in my lifetime. I really enjoy being in the groups as most are relatively small enough for members to learn a lot about each other. You also see their posts outside of the groups and want to check those out. Most people are easy-going and open-minded so it’s easy to like them.

I think it's human nature for people to have a stronger affinity, or even an attraction, for some people more than others. It happens when you are in a meeting, at a bar, on a bus, or in a chat room. It's normal.

Have not thought about it I guess. I have spent very little time looking at profiles. I have enjoyed reading and answering posts more than anything. Its just cool for me to hide away in here away from the religious nuts Im surrounded by and talk with people who make sense to me. Lol

I thought so, but I suspect that those people aren't entirely unaware.

You should transmit your intrigue...?

Not at all. There are a few that have my interest as well.

There are people on here whose profile pics I look at and think 'hel-looo' (in a lascivious Carry On... voice), but I WON'T go looking at their profiles just in case they think I'm being creepy. ?

I know we're encouraged to check out profiles on here, but I do feel weird about it. Even so, I'm kind'a hoping I'll make friends on here eventually who I'll get to have longer chats with.

Whilst I am still reasonably active (for now anyway) ...and still have the full sum of moving parts, I don't expect at my age to be forming heaps of new relationships. But granted there are plenty of interesting folks out there, and life being a glorious string of surprises, I would never say never!

Why thank you!

I'm not dating, but there are certainly some very interesting, delightful, and dare I use that word "intriguing " individuals on AGM.
Such an eclectic bunch too..
It's easy and very pleasant to meat so many likeminded people from all backgrounds too.
I often think though if I was dating ..it would be like planet hunting in the galaxy..trying to find that elusive planet in the "Goldielocks" area of a billion stars..???

There are a few on here I find very intriguing. It begins with a post or comment. If I like it, I will usually visit their profile and see some of their other posts and comments, not to mention their photos. This sometimes leads to more intrigue, and I will follow them. None of them are in my area except one or two, and I'm already friends with one of them.

Yes....I have experienced that same feeling...

I love something or somebody to feel intrigued about!

Yes. That is why I follow their posts.

It's like I say to all my friends: If I act like a total idiot around you, it's because I think you're hot.

All the time for me. I have found most people I find interesting don't feel the same way about me vice versa.

I must admit there are a few I keep up with, for some reason I'm curious about them. It's not a dating or sexual thing I just find them thought-provoking. A few have differing ideology in some areas but it's not enough to ignore them or block them.
