Let's take to task the difference in men and women somewhat based on comments I have witnessed in the last few days on SW.
First, men seem to be far more visual than us ladies generally. I have noticed guys are centered first on your avatar. The first comments they make to me for example are beautiful lips or I want to kiss you. Other ladies that have pictures up of themselves or of stock photos of beautiful women gain a lot of attention. But is that attention love or lust, and if the pictures used aren't your own is the lust directed toward the person or simply an avatar?
From my own standpoint as a woman, I don't pay much attention to avatars. I am more focused on interacting with the person, and knowing them from the inside out. It is one thing to have a handsome face or body on your avatar and it is totally another if you can't hold your own in a conversation with me. I really think we fall in love with all our senses but our heart and mind lead us to love. If a person can awaken my heart and then get in my head and occupy time there anything is possible. So I can understand how some people could fall in love and never meet.
