Is chemistry mutual?

[ams819]

Hi there,

 

I am wondering if people believe that chemistry is mutual?

 

In this case, I am referring to something more than sexual chemistry. I had an incredible first date with a guy last week; our personalities and interests instantly meshed without any effort. It was remarkable how natural it felt to spend time with him!

 

Now I am left wondering about chemistry. In your experience, does this tend to go both ways? I'd love to think it does (and that he is equally psyched), but I just don't know.

 

Any brilliant insight out there?

Chemistry can be felt only on one side, unfortunately.

one would think chemistry would by definition be mutual.. however perceptions can be tainted by things such as desperation... I mean some people are so desperate and lonely or maybe just miscalibrated that is someone smiles and says hello in their general direction they think they must like them so i dunno...

Interests meshing, can be considered a compatibility factor.

 

With chemistry, I think there has to be a component present (i.e. one from both sides) that creates the chemistry (i.e. the connection).

Thanks to everyone for sharing your thoughts!

 

I think I just need to mellow out and wait to see what happens. . .
