When you first meet someone, what do you look for?

Question

I'm talking about anyone, not just possible relationships. What do you seem to notice most about other people?
Is it something physical, like part of their appearance?
Or is it something about their inner self, like their personality?

Answer 1

Its not physical i dont think, thats just the icing on the cake-i wanna know what cake it is. In their eyes, in their voice, in the small things. They emenate a light of personality which vibrates differently for each and every soul. I look for this vibration of spirit in a person more than anything.
Do you know what i mean?

Answer 2

When I first meet someone there has to be some sort of an attraction for me to approach them. Once the communication develops then I can get insight on his inner being. I also have a thing for how a guy walks. I can't explain it but it's a lovely sight on particular guys. It's also a great thing if he's slightly bow-legged.

Answer 3

When we first meet someone, the visual, audio, and scent qualities are the only thing we know. Learning about the inner self & personality may follow, depending if there's interest to proceed further.

Answer 4

If they write... I feel that we are kindred, if they paint or are a musician I feel kindred.

We tend to think alike writers... We run along the same circuts so to speak and even if we are all very different in what we like to write and read and think about... We are still bound by some strange muse laden fabric that is undeniable.

Writers, artists and musicians are a strange breed and my favorite kind of company in a human being.

Everyone else is just feed and fodder...

Answer 5

What I look for is, Are they a bossy person or not. I get tired of being bossed around by people so that Is the first thing I look for. I do not pay attention to appearance, that does not bother me. Personality is what is important to me.

Answer 6

I looks for a sense of humor, but not a mean sarcastic attitude. For some reason, I notice people's hands. Long tapering fingers are beautiful to me and short stubby fingers are a turn-off. I also prefer tall to short people. Cleanliness and neatness are very important, too.

Answer 7

I look for the uni-brow, nose hair, a wide load sign on the back, a T-shirt big enough to make a 4 man tent, the smell of dirty underwear, the shine reflecting off of the head, a double chin, and big tube socks.

Answer 8

I try not to be too obvious, but I can't help looking at a girls breasts.
Legs are good too.
Hair is nice.
Nice teeth make for a beautiful smile.
I really like seeing girls with their bellies showing, but only if they're not fat.
I once wanted to go out with a girl because she had big brown eyes.
Not much left is there really, so I'll say niceley formed breast would be my number one.

Answer 9

Inner self- confidence and a love for herself and her abilities. If someone does not like herself...how am I able to like that person? Beyond that...I want them to bring something "to the table" that I cannot bring. Ideas on things, experiences, abilities, etc. If we have the same dislikes, likes, abilities, etc. then it is like dating a mirror. Not much fun.

Answer 10

Typically I will notice any physical aspects but after talking with them I will catch on to the personality they portray.

Answer 11

Other than physical characteristics, the first thing you might notice about someone is his or her voice.

What they say, how they say it, how it sounds -- whether they look you in the eye when they're talking ... can give you clues about their personality. For me, those things are more interesting than someone's appearance.
