Woggle Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 One of the best traits to have in dating is a sixth sense which means knowing how to read people and have good instincts. My friends always tell me that they trust my judgement on their girlfriends because when I feel something isn't right it usually isn't and I can tell when a woman is real and genuine. There is a certain aura you get with genuine people who for lack of a better word actually seem to have a soul. Honing these skills is a great asset in dating because then people can't hide their lack of soul with a smooth talking and flashy personality.
casey.lives Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 i look at what people say.... and what people do.. i'm a very sensitive easily frightened overly exposed bag of raw nerves... haha yeah.. i also am not all that i let on.. so i pay the same respect to others. i don't judge.
SammySammy Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 I wouldn't say it was a sixth sense, but a career in sales - attentive listening, reading body language, paying attention to small details others would miss - has helped me to read people very well. 1

Getting that gut feeling about something being "off" is huge. We may not completely understand what's going on, but I've seen results a little too often to think it's all just in our heads. 1
quankanne Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 when someone is really "wrong," I pick up a strong vibe –*they're psychologically off, to a point where their relationships almost always become toxic. I'm instinctively uncomfortable around them. with everyone else, though, it's a crap shoot. Sometimes I can detect something off-kilter, but mostly I've got to go through the relationship awhile before realizing that someone is not "good" to be around. I trust my gut on the ones that trigger a bad vibe, though.
Hopeful30 Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 I have this too...which is why I'm single most of the time. *sigh*

Yes. Seeing is not fun. Spending about 90% of energy to not see, just haha yeah....if you see all the way then the bad comes with the good. Nope. The good is really, really beautiful though casey.
Guyouthere Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 Oh yes, most definitely. I'll go as far to say that it is psychic/spiritual phenomenon. Whatever you want to classify the source as, it is most definitely real and can be very strong. I learned I first had that ability when I was married, and sensed my wife was cheating. In fact, it built up so strongly that it "forced me" to listen to it, and when I did, I was 100 percent correct. Then it happened again with this last one. How would you explain me "getting the urge" telling her I wanted to date others, and did so, without even consciously being sure why? Well, it turns out later that she had met the new guy a week prior. Nothing was said, she did a great job keeping it hidden. I wasn't even around her. I "sensed it" somehow, and once again, I was correct. Fact is, we are 4000 miles apart and I still sensed it, and sensed it strongly. How? I don't know. It just happens. And I get it at times. It is always correct, so I have learned to fine tune it (of sorts). Its just an uneasy feeling that will come up on me, and it (in a way), says… "listen", and it gets my attention.
Ruby Slippers Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 I can usually read people very well. But I have been fooled before.
Jejangles Posted October 29, 2015 Posted October 29, 2015 I'm good at reading people in every area of my life except dating. Actually I am pretty good at reading my dates as well, but when I'm attracted or intrigued, I overlook red flags. I've been working on that and feel I am doing better at paying attention to my gut now, but I still have a long way to go.
