Does anyone have that kind of experience? i'm wondering if people who are artistically talented, tend to seek relationships with other artistic people? and i wonder if artistic people use dating sites at all..or it's just 'too ordinary' for them?
Any thoughts?

Hi
I would put myself in the semi artistic category as I tend to only do solid material sculpting, but I have known couples who are both artistic, and one is and one isn't, so I think it's more the attraction than what they do.
However as I sculpt out of a hard material, touch is far more important than sight, as I can feel minor imperfections and differences from one side to the other much better than I can see them. After an encounter with a young lady sometime ago, I found she had been discussing our antics with her friends, and how thorough I had been when exploring her body.
While I found this quite amusing, what I didn't tell her was her left **** was slight larger than her right one, and her right bum cheek was firmer than her left one, not to mention one knee was slightly knobbier than the other and one shoulder blade was slight higher.
As for do they use dating places like this I guess so, as there really no different to anyone else.
ps, if you like to be admired go for a painter, if you like to be touched and explored go for a sculptor, and if you like getting messy go for a potter.

I have been told point blank by numerous women that I am too "cerebral" for them - whatever that means.
I am just a simple guy. I do not "do" (i.e. understand) subtle hints, read body language or lips across a room, I wouldn't even know if a woman was flirting with me unless she held up a big sign saying so.
I say things as I see them and I often get into trouble.
So for me I only ever ask women four questions:
1. Who Are You [the answer won't be your name, see quote below]
2. What Do You Want
3. Why Are You Here
4. Where Are You Going
That's basically the only four questions you'll ever need to know the answers to - so long as you can answer the first.
"What a sad thing you are. Unable to answer even such a simple question without falling back on references, and genealogies and what other people call you. Have you nothing of your own? Nothing to stand on that is not provided, defined, delineated, stamped, sanctioned, numbered, and approved by others? How can you expected to fight for someone else when you haven't the fairest idea who you are?" - Sebastian, "Comes the Inquisitor", Babylon 5

"How do you know the chosen ones? No greater love hath a man than he lay down his life for his brother. Not for millions, .. not for glory, not for fame. For one person, .. in the dark .. where no one will ever know .. or see." - Sebastian, "Comes the Inquisitor", Babylon 5

Well, I would consider myself somewhat creative when I get up off my lazy **** and decide to work on it! But yeah, I am definitely interested in meeting creative people - not just in a romantic setting but life in general. I suppose because creative people tend to channel their thoughts and moods into something ultimately positive - the work.
I wouldn't say it is vital for me that a potential date be creative though. At the end of the day it doesn't matter what someone does, just what they are like to be with. If they are easy to chat to and things come natural, great.

As someone who loves to put the job that pays the bills into perspective with some escapist writing, I consider myself to be creative. However, it is possible to do this without being arty, pretentious or believing everything and anything has to be so dreadfully serious.
I enjoy the company of creative people, but, unfortunately, some see their passion of a way of trying to claim some kind of intellectual high ground, which, as someone who can choose to air a considered opinion or be as daft and silly as the mood takes me, i find rather arrogant.
Naturally, this is just my opinion, but 'arty' people can be the worst sometimes for failing to recognise that just because you think music is a noise to be enjoyed and no more and not everything has to be worthy or "appreciated", you can still string a sentence together and be reasonably intelligent too.

well...as far as i know it is difficult to live with a genius (when art isn't just a hobby or job) , it requires enormous patience..and true love. My guess is someone who is not artistic is always more submissive and patient.
how gentelmanly of you not telling her
i have a larger left **** too, but i hoped men didn't notice that ) ..potters remind me of a scene from Ghost, so romantic.

That quote gave me a laugh for today!!
I'm the 'creative type' and far from considering myself as of 'higher intellect' I find my creativity can be a bit of an obstacle!
I am constantly forgetting to take essential things with me when I go somewhere (er...like house keys, money - nothing essential you understand!) but I will remember a spectacular sunset for months and months.
I seem to find it impossible to describe an event or memory as 'great' when I can take ten minutes to describe, in detail, how I felt about said event or memory. I have been told, in the nicest possible way, that I am 'hard work', 'one of a kind', 'nuts'......by my closest friends.
If you want advice on budgeting or how to pack a suitcase then I can't really help - my daughter is the most level-headed person I know (thank God!) but if you want me to create a piece of jewellery that will reflect your relationship with your mother, I'm your girl.
Now that I have probably blown my chances of finding a nice sensible man, I'm off to see if I can remember where I put my bank card!

I am artistically minded and wanna tell you, the problem isn't that why such people use dating sites. The problem you'll get is to date such one. It's a torture belive me. Sometimes such kind of people like speak about things you ain't interessted in all night long. Sometimes they're offended and you won't know why because of they hide it but it's a reason to avoid you.
Artitists are very complicated it`s all up for boheimians.

This is true ... i have enormous patience, and great love for what i do .. i am a professional model maker and i could not do what i do without patience and love, as for looking for a like minded partner, i would say its not important, it would help though as most artistic people are deep thinkers, there is so much more below the surface, but opposites attract, or so they say.
