lol april/may isn't aries its taurus & an early gemini...

to defend my fellow may ladies...
i admit it, i used to hit hard, i beat the living daylights out of some guys and i thought it was all fun and games... thats how my family was, hit or be hit, even playing was extreme physical abuse in my family, its not the star sign its what she comes from, and how she grows as a person... i personally don't do that anymore and most of the time i'm glad and like who i am now, for a long time i didn't have a concept of compassion, and now i do, but it took a long time and alot of help from people who looked past the pain i caused to the confused, ignorant, scared child i was, and if i weren't for them i wouldn't be the gentle warrior i am. i used to think strength and respect came from a punch or kick properly placed, and now i know better. it helps me, but there are other things which i'm constantly learning about what i learned from my family and what that says and does to other people, so its a huge undertaking to try to reprogram yourself, but if no one tells you its an issue you just keep doing it... so ya don't date em but tell them why, its important, for the girl and everyone she meets, you don't fix a pipe you don't know is leaking

The scent thing is really important. Smell is our most primitive sense. If you don't like a person's smell, whether it is perfume, sweat, or garlic, you won't like the person. That's how the primitive part of the brain works. Think of dogs sniffing each others butts!

I know of a beautiful woman who was told "I'm sorry, I tried, but I must be with a woman with blue eyes." (her brown)

Thanks for sharing that, um, "vision"!

But yup, smell is definitely under-rated. Reminds me of a friend with an excellent sense of smell, who complained about her ex-husband, that she should have known they wouldn't be a good fit from the start, because he never really "smelled right" (and presumably she's not talking about hygiene)!

Being more of a "tactile" sort, I've noticed a "good fit" is important to me, where all the appropriate body parts of a partner seem to fall in the complementary or "right" places, so she just "feels" right.

LOL, I am so glad we don't sniff each other's butts.
I do think smell and physical fit mean a lot , I know I like a guy taller than me but one too tall is hard to handle if your dancing with your nose in his bellybutton.
I like a man who smells good.

I would rather not think about dogs sniffing each others butts!
Oh Oh... now I'm getting a visual of the other things they do.

Egh.... they've got nothing better to do anyway!

Physical "fit" is not exactly part of my compatibility test.
I am quite tall. I have to date men who find me a desireable height. He doesn't have to be taller than me, he just has to think tall women are great.
Therefore I am open to a lot of body types. Tall short, angular round, I only draw the line at morbidly obese.
