I don't. Few do, really. In a way it's a good thing - you're more diverse and unique. Just lonely, too.
i don't want to meet people just lke me, but it would be nice sometimes to meet ppl that i feel like i have more in common with, share more ideals and common interests.
I don't think I have ever met someone I have everything in common with. And I don't think I've ever met someone I can say everything that's on my mind. My sister and my brother in law are my best friends, and I talk to them about a lot. But not everything. You can meet people through school or work... Maybe get involved in something going on in your community.
I met one and only one that was like minded. It was fun for a while but then we just had too much in common and I got bored and bailed
Everyone I befriend is like-minded in at least one way - but totally like-minded would be ttly unpossible and damn that's a good thing.
It is a good thing actually. But You kinda get tired of them going along with everyone and liking everything you like. Gets boring after a while Opposites I like better IMO
why do people take "like minded" so hardcore literally.. i thought that was just an expression.. like similar.. but doesn't mean you are identical clones ???
Well, it's hard to know exactly what she means when she says it in such a general sense. But even the people I share this ideal in common with, or I can connect to through this or that, I disagree on mostly everything else with =P
oh i was just responding to ducks response of "totally like minded" I do like like minded people, i just prefer a bit opposite of me but i had one that me and him had just everything in common..rare but it does happen
honestly, everywhere you look people say dont try and hook up with people in classes... well shoot if your taking a class for fun, why no? i mean i met my current girlfriend in german class, just so happens we kind of work in the same building aswell, that just helped, but at least we had something in common, we both openly took german as its un required there fore we were already like minded in a few ways its just turned out crazy how like we actually are, we even compliment each others music all the time and are shocked how creepy but awesomely alike we are...
They say that? Man, am I glad I didn't hear that advice (not that I would have followed it anyway)! I met my wife in Aikido class. The nice thing about dating a fellow Aikidoka is that I had a valid excuse for being up close and grabbing her. Of course she let me do that so she could practice throwing me, but still - I enjoyed the contact.
Just like-minded people in general? Then in my case local coffee shops and MySpace of all places, lol.
I find like minded people in spaces where I have a lot of interest. For instance, I am a member of a yoga/pilates/dance studio and I've meet a lot of great people . I didn't go out and look for them but if you are friendly and make conversation, you'll eventually find like minded people. I also get a long with people from workshops i attend, gatherings, volunteering. I think what it comes down to is being open and unafraid to approach to meet all sorts of people. But if you have a happy great attitude it is more simple than some may think. peace.love.light
Like attracts like. Try going to events centered around interests that you gravitate towards such as various festivals, raves, and gatherings and you are bound to meet many wonderful individuals who you share interests, hopes, and dreams with.
Nowhere in particular, although I have made some really close friends at work, interestingly enough. I just bump into them sometimes, usually when I'm not expecting it. Most of my closest friendships have been made that way...
I wish i could meet someone similar to me..but for some reason i really cant. But oh well. i like being alone and different i suppose. Its a good thing that im not changing for anyone i feel.
yeah, i never heard that one either. if anything, i've heard that class is a great place to meet people. i meet friends in a variety of places, although work is by far the most common one. back when i lived in the dorm i met a lot of people that way too. very few of them are particularly like minded though. of course we have some things in common, but i tend to get bored with people quickly so i always end up befriending a wide variety of types (when i befriend anyone; i tend to be a loner if i get the opportunity).
