Can he really grow on you??

Ever heard the saying "Men love with their eyes, Women love with their ears."

A few recent conversations seems to reinforce this, but what do you think?

Coversation with Laurie

I went out to lunch with my friend Laurie who told me about a recent dating experience. She was set up on a blind date and had absolutely no attraction to the guy. By the end of the date, he said or did a few things that grew on her, and she agreed to go out with him again. By the end of the second or third date, she started to genuinely like the guy. So he went from having no shot, to having this great gal start to like him as more than a friend.

Guys, does this hold true for you? If you are not initally attracted to a woman, but start to like her personality, could it go past a friend stage? Ladies, has the above type of scenario happened to you?

Coversation #2- See video below from Toni.

Toni recently attended a speed dating event. She told me that she came in, looked at the guys and wanted to walk out the back door because she did not see anyone she was attracted to. Another nice lady, stopped her from leaving, and explained that it would really mess Jay up because the gender balance would be off. Thus Tami stayed.

Good thing she did, because she is completely gaga for a guy she met at the event. She went from having no attraction to anyone, to having a guy that she is crazy about.

Guys, same question? If you are not initially attracted, but start to really like her personality, could it go past the friend stage? Ladies, has this happened to you?

The answer to the question depends on where the woman's interest level begins. If it is below 50%, all the miracle grow in the world is not going to help. If it is at least 51% or higher than a guy has a chance if he plays his cards right. Personally, I am not interested in waiting for green apples to ripen.

If any woman had me circled as a NO at a speed dating event before even talking to me then that tells me that she a hard-headed structured woman. And as the old Elvis song goes, "Hard headed woman, soft-hearted man, been the source of trouble since the world began". She would be doing all the guys at the event a favor by walking out so that she doesnt waist everyone's time. If I were a betting man, I would say that Toni and her man won't last through the winter (unless he is the kind that is only too glad to be there and then he will need to take a beating for a little longer before he gets smart).

Give me a caring flexible giver that appreciates a good man that knows how to treat well, and I will be forever satisfied. And on that I will gladly be patient because that woman is the one that knows how to make her man comfortable and how to make his life better.
