Coffee 4,323 August 8, 2019 Share August 8, 2019 (edited) When you meet someone for the first time, do you prefer someone who is more weird, funny, and different, or the type that is logical, serious, and into deep conversation or a mix of both?

Here No Longer 5,272 August 8, 2019 Share August 8, 2019 (edited) I like the sort of weird type that's goofy but is very capable of having an intellectual conversation. Edited August 8, 2019 by Dustlicious 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Bolt 35,035 August 8, 2019 Share August 8, 2019 @StarrySkyDash Just letting you know I have altered the title of your thread so it’s easier to read, and copied the original title into the body of your post. Just keeping things organized. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TBD 17,237 August 8, 2019 Share August 8, 2019 A subtle kind. Weird or anything hyperactive at first can make me pull back from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emerald Heart 24,727 August 8, 2019 Share August 8, 2019 @Dustlicious Me too. I like weird, funny, and kind people, but also need to be capable of having a serious or logical conversation when I need it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cash In 21,775 August 8, 2019 Share August 8, 2019 I'm usually very quiet around people that I just met - more than I am usually. I would just like to be able to get along with them, so there isn't too much overarching awkwardness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treeglow Flicker 13,225 August 8, 2019 Share August 8, 2019 I've always been open minded towards everyone I meet. However, in terms of preference, I usually prefer for there to be some sort of merriment, laughter or general pleasantness within the first few minutes. It's a sure sign that whoever it is I'm talking to actually wants to mutually interact. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Splashee 28,547 August 9, 2019 Share August 9, 2019 To be fair, IRL I don't really enjoy meeting new people, meaning I don't have a preference. It is one of those "hopefully things go well" moments. However, the sooner silliness starts appearing, I am all up for being silly or joking around. So maybe that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mini 451 August 9, 2019 Share August 9, 2019 i like people that are just relaxed hyperactive or super happy/sad people are annoying 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

碇 シンジン 27,429 August 9, 2019 Share August 9, 2019 weird funny first impressions are not for me, however overly serious approach is not that good either. Id say optimal would be semi casual not tense relaxed atmosphere in a controlled situation and environment. being too free or casual usually leads into boundary issues and too serious in turn creates too strong boundaries for the first contact 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frostgage 7,974 August 11, 2019 Share August 11, 2019 Probably the former. It's just so much easier for me to talk with people like that for the first time 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prospekt 10,991 August 11, 2019 Share August 11, 2019 I like people who are a little quirky, but can also hold a decent conversation. Though I won't push for some kind of deep discussion right away. We need to build rapport or else it'll just come off as awkward to me. I just don't want to be too tense and serious; I like people whom I can just chill out with and get to know in a relaxed setting. Most people I consider friends in real life are people like this. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigRoadman 18 August 11, 2019 Share August 11, 2019 I despise people that seem to be perpetually abnormally happy for no apparent reason. Anybody that greets me with a beaming smile I tend to stay away from. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patty Thundersnow 4,132 August 11, 2019 Share August 11, 2019 I tend to prefer people be themselves around me. DOn't be artificial. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meson Bolt 2,647 August 16, 2019 Share August 16, 2019 I mean, often times I pretend to be this chill, relaxed, a little awkward but well-meaning guy who's just here to have a fun time. It's like a mask that I wear that hides all the self-loathing and regret that I don't want anyone to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Recherche 29,965 August 16, 2019 Share August 16, 2019 As long as you have an indoor voice, I don't truly mind what kind of impression you make. Unfortunately, many people cannot meet that standard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Partialgeek514 4,930 August 17, 2019 Share August 17, 2019 I'm not sure what I like personality-wise. I mainly just hope that people I meet will seem to want to meet me as well. If they have no interest in meeting me, then I'll probably lose interest in getting to know them. It would be awkward anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dreambiscuit 8,743 August 18, 2019 Share August 18, 2019 I like a balanced mixture. It’s fun to meet someone with a personality that has some style, but sometimes an overabundance all at once can be overwhelming. And someone who can be logical, serious or introspective from time to time shows a depth of character I can appreciate. Being ‘on’ all the time can be exhausting, but someone who’s always serious can be boring. It can’t be all one and not the other; all humor or all seriousness would get tedious on their own. So yeah, balance them out and I’m good with that. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Historian 515 August 19, 2019 Share August 19, 2019 I require some amount of intelligence and the ability to hold a real conversation, not just small talk. I suck at small talk for one thing and people with nothing interesting to say bore the shit out of me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dead account 2,707 March 31, 2022 Share March 31, 2022 I would prefer if they are just themselves, this way we are quicker at finding out if we click or not. Most of the time I made the experience that new people are happy, motivated and excited in the beginning, but quickly change after a few days and become the exact opposite. But I'm not good at making a good impression either. As a quiet (not shy) person, it is VERY hard for me to make friends. But this is the real me. I don't want to become a fake person only to impress or entertain others, only to get "liked". So it is what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
